New Roles Available
I have added 6 new available roles to the page.
Hello all! I've been working on an audio drama/audio read of the Transformers More Than Meets The Eye comic book written by James Roberts and published by IDW. I've already completed the first 3 issues and the cast have been doing a great job! I initially planned to complete the unofficially dubbed 'Season 1' of the comic, going all the way to the Dark Cybertron event and there are many more characters that need casting. That's where you come in! But first, for those of you who don't know what this story is about, here's the basic premise: it follows Rodimus, the captain of the starship the Lost Light, who is accompanied by Ultra Magnus, Drift, Ratchet, Chromedome, Rewind, Swerve, Skids, Cyclonus, and many more characters as they travel the vastness of the universe in search of the legendary Knights of Cybertron, who hold the key to restoring Cybertron to its glory days. Along the way they come across new allies, enemies, and many challenges that await them.
I have a plan underway to make the recording process run fairly smoothly and have created a forum where all of the information can be accessed. This is a big project and there will be certain deadlines that need to be met so keep this in mind if you decide to try out. If you think that this will be a problem for you then please don't audition. With that said, if you are interested in auditioning, here are some requirements before you try out:
-No filters/robotic effects in your recordings. I want to hear what YOU sound like.
-Have a good quality microphone.
-Unless otherwise stated in the character descriptions, no impersonations of any past actors. Feel free to do your own take and make the character your own.
-Be reliable and available.
And that should be it. Have fun auditioning! If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

I have added 6 new available roles to the page.
A new role is available for auditioning.
I've extended the deadline for a few of the characters that are still open for auditioning.
And with that, auditions are now closed! I'd like to thank each and every one of you for taking the time to audition. The amount of submissions I received blew me away and I didn't expect to recieve this many nor the level of this much talent. Overall, I received over 400 audtions, not just on this site. Because of the high amount of auditions that were submitted, it's going to take me a few days to go through all of them and make some decisions so expect the results sometime within the next week. Once again, thank you all for trying out and I'll see you soon. Take care!
A Decepticon Seeker who was one of Starscream’s best men and is loyal to the Decepticon cause through and through. However, due to an ensuing battle between Megatron and the Autobots from their last encounter, his teleportation ability was damaged and he suffers for it as a result. Due to the events that are about to take place on Cybertron, he has no choice but to team up with the Autobots and stop Shockwave, no matter how much he hates the idea. He can be mean, nasty, and rude, but is a capable fighter among the Decepticon ranks.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
Will you Autobots just shut up and do something?!
(Weak) Gotta get close. I… I can teleport, I think… but I can’t carry everybody that far.
We’re not here to talk, traitor.
Kaon's Sparkeater pet who's a part of the Decepticon Justice Division (D.J.D.) whose primary objective is to hunt down Decepticons who have strayed from their cause.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high, animalistic
(Attacks snarls) RAARGH!
(Whimpers)
A quantum mechanic, an engineer with a focus on faster-than-light starships, and as such always carries her trusty wrench with her wherever she goes. She originally is from Caminus in which she was sent to find Metroplex alongside Windblade and Chromia. She’s been cramming tons of knowledge about the war and Cybertron into her head for weeks due to being one of the few Transformers not to have taken part in it. She’s usually chipper, upbeat, and high-spirited, but isn’t an expert when it comes to combat.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
Wait a minute, you’re… Pharma! No! Ratchet! From the Deltaran medical facility! I can’t believe I didn’t recognize you! Where’s my head?!
I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to be—I didn’t mean to accuse you of anything. It’s just—I’ve heard about your quest.
(Annoyed) Why is everyone being silly today? Brainstorm’s hanging upside down, you’re juggling, Getaway’s… in chains. It’s like being in a circus.
One of Soundwave’s most reliable spies; he is extremely loyal to the Decepticon cause just like the aforementioned communications officer. He will usually stick to the shadows and sneak up on an enemy, only to then pounce and catch his prey unawares.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
No offense, Soundwave—but who cares? Look what that titan did to us! How long do you want to stare at it?
If he saved the day again, the Autobots have no choice but to hail him as a hero.
It’s too late! I can smell him from here.
A worker at the Relinquishment Clinic on Cybertron who is a part of an Institute responsible for Shadowplay, a process used when warping someone’s mind using mnemosurgery. As far as your average ‘bot goes, he’s as dodgy as they come and seems to enjoy doing what he does, perhaps a little too much. Though, he seems to retain some sense of being dignified and formal despite his questionable methods.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
Sorry to have kept you waiting. If you’re here about the special offer on triple-changers, I’m afraid they’re all on loan at the moment.
(Nervous) Really? Ah, right, well—in that case, yes, sorry, it says, “Cleanse and control.”
Oh! Oh! The noise in your head! So much pride and doubt and fear—so many questions. You don't know what to think, do you?
He previously served under the command of Turmoil during the war and now is a hired henchman to Shockwave. He’s been granted the ability to heal himself whenever he takes damage and continues to serve him due to his promise for change on Cybertron. He has a bad attitude and is mostly a hired gun who’s willing to do the dirty work, no questions asked.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
Boss—if you’re done swooning—we got the link online. The titan’s acting as a conduit, but there’s a… complication.
Your teleportation power’s goin’ haywire, pal? Guess that means I can’t hit ya—but you’re not much use to Megatron, either.
(Nervous) G-get out… th-this is private property!
Known for being “The Voice” as a positive influence during the war and served as a reporter in the early years. He joined the efforts in the fight and was a communications officer for the Wreckers for a while. Eventually, he joined the Lost Light and is in charge of sending out messages to specific frequencies and often stays in the communications room. He's usually friendly, but has his limits when interrupted by 'bots like Whirl.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
I’ve almost got a picture. No audio, I’m afraid, but look at that shape. Someone else is in there. A third person.
(Irritated) There—you’ve had your treat. Now run along and intimidate people, or whatever it is you do for fun.
(Friendly) Sure. It won’t happen, but—whatever. Fire away. Hubcap’s an old friend of mine.
One of the most well-known and feared members of the Dinobots. He values power and strength and doesn’t get along with the Autobots all that much. In fact, he prefers to use his sword and punch his way out of things instead of finding a more peaceful route and because of this, he has had disagreements with Optimus Prime. However, he hates those who abuse power more, such as the Decepticons, so when push comes to shove he’ll gladly step in to help the Autobots’ efforts. During his time spent in Garrus-9, he somehow escaped and found himself in a stasis tube on Clemency in which someone is bound to discover him.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low, rough, you can either stick close to Gregg Berger's portrayal of him or do your own interpretation on the character.
(Attack yell) Huraargh!
Me Grimlock.
Thanks. I appreciate that.
A member of the ragtag group known as the Scavengers, who roam the galaxy looking for spare parts, and his job is to extract energon from any corpses he finds. He’s known for being a bad shot and usually misses or hits the wrong target. Being one of the most energetic Decepticons in the group, he manages to keep things lively, no matter how much he gets on the others nerves.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
(Friendly) Nice to meet you, loser! They call me Misfire. Long story. Actually, you know what? It isn’t. It’s a very short story involving a machine gun, a misunderstanding, and a dozen dead Decepticons.
What, now? Like, right now? That’s a shame. I was kinda hoping for an opportunity to escape.
(After accidentally shooting one of his teammates) I was aiming for the other guy…! Obviously.
Another member of the Constructicons who transforms into another part of Devastator. He does most of the work, though outside of fighting that work includes moving supplies which isn’t the most exciting job for him. Like the rest of the Constructicons, he’s also grown to like Prowl.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
Your memories are great!
Y’know, there really ain’t a “outta the line o’fire” no more, Prowl!
You put a lot of faith in the little yellow guy.
A twitchy Neoprimalist with huge feet who suffers from a possibly made up disease that causes him to change shape whenever he tells a lie. A member of the Scavengers who tends to get nervous in tense situations and is often seen praying to Primus.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
(Excited, relieved) He’s come back to life! It’s a miracle! A miracle!
(Nervous) Careful—he’s using words to confuse and frighten us.
You really think that’s the best my imagination can come up with?
A maintenance engineer who gets around by doing his job each day. He’s a normal guy without any special abilities or skills unlike the rest of the crew and is very friendly to the others.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
You played no small part in that, I gather.
You know why you can’t get a handle on me? Because I’m an ordinary person. I’m normal. I’m just a mid-ranking maintenance engineer who takes each day as it comes.
(Annoyed) For the love of—look, if I tell you, do you promise to keep quiet for five minutes?
A very upbeat Autobot who’s easy to get along with and is known for engaging in conversation a lot. He has a very laid back attitude and will get along with almost anybody. Though, he does keep a hatred of Decepticons inside of him ever since his home was destroyed. Still, he tries to remain positive and lend a hand in any way that he can.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
Aw, let ‘em sing, Brainstorm. It’s not every day we get to defeat a Necrotitan.
I’m going to take a wild stab in the dark and say this does not belong to an Autobot.
What are you like, Trailcutter? A sunrise as epic as that and you’ve got your head stuck in a book!
A Decepticon who was part of Snap Trap’s crew that invaded Temptoria in search of resources. He’s in charge of watch at their base and, according to Blip, sounds exactly like Megatron.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
I’m Nautilator, by the way. One of Snap Trap’s crew. I thought you’d want to see this.
(After being told he sounds like Megatron, terrified) Megatron, yes, I know! Just don't shoot!
A miner who spends the majority of his time in the underground on Luna 2, digging for anything of value. He's a hard worker, but can be a bit rough around the edges.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low, rough
Drill's gotta be earned. Two-hundred years it took me to get this.
Sir, no sir, I'm not joking. I'm looking at it right now. It's green. Yeah, that green... I think you'd better send for someone.
Hey! Cog-face! We're the ones who found your Point One whatever... what do we get?
A renowned specialist in espionage and is an expert in knowing what the Decepticons are thinking in order to come up with a strategy to stop their plans. He remains serious most of the time, but his spark is in the right place.
It’s coming from the room that little panicky guy with the legs shares with that Decepticon-who-says-he-isn’t.
Old Cybertronian? I’ve never heard it spoken, let alone sung.
A capable fighter, but a bit reckless. He’s not known for using strategy and his attitude, both in and outside of the battlefield, is liable to get him or others in trouble. He’ll do practically anything to win the war. Now that it’s over, he’s taken to being one of Prowl’s enforcers to keep the ‘peace’ on Cybertron and has been known to bully the NAILs.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
This NAIL bothering you, Optimus?
Good to see you, boss. Rodimus said you'd be okay. What happened to you? Where have you been? How's it feel to be a hate figure?
It's escalating out here, and we're seriously outnumbered. There's 50 of us and 1,000 of them! 1,000 and counting!
A well-known scientist who ended up aiding Megatron in his creation of Phase Sixers once the war broke out.
Voice Type: Medium-high, high
In all probability, this is the last Ununtrium on the planet—and therefore the last anywhere.
Okay… I’m injecting the Ununtrium into the infusion chamber. Wait 14 seconds, then add the superheated Propex.
Congratulations, Megatron—it’s a superwarrior.
The leader of the Decepticon Justice Division (D.J.D.), a group known for hunting down Decepticons who have betrayed the Decepticon cause and execute them with extreme prejudice as well as any Autobots they encounter. He’s the most eloquent member out of the group as he enjoys listening to music while quoting “Towards Peace” and other philosophical pieces written by Megatron. He often uses this tactic while using his modulated vocal processor to lower his voice in order to coax his opponents’ sparks into giving up, causing them to explode. He’s zealous in his devotion to Megatron’s cause and goes so far as to wear the Decepticon’s insignia as a mask. He can be violent as any other Decepticon, maybe more so, but views himself as a bureaucrat as he likes to keep things rather organized and his members in top form when not hunting members on the list.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low, formal
Here’s the thing: they say I can talk people to death. “Weaponized conversation,” they say. "I don’t know," I say. "Sounds a bit pretentious.”
The bad news: one of your number has transgressed. He knows who he is. The good news: if you hand him over we’ll let the six of you watch while we kill him.
(Threateningly) Don’t you ever, EVER, tell me what Decepticons do and don’t do. Understood?
A member of the D.J.D. His unique form sports two pairs of arms, one pair at waist level and another pair at his shoulders. He’s known for melting his victims in his torso in which he activates his eternal heating elements creating a smelting pool, as well as forcing his victims to eat their own brain modules. He's a reliable soldier in Tarn's ranks and will follow him wherever he goes.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low, deep
Oh, Misfire… your timing is as bad as your targeting.
I assume that’s why we’re here, Tarn? Level 5 infraction? Aggregated theft? That’s what it says on the list.
A member of the Scavengers who always seems to be in a perpetually foul mood and dislikes almost everything. He was stationed on Nebulos where he was attacked by Thunderwing and after the war had ended, he found himself on Clemency with a head wound. Not long after that, he joined the Scavengers and has become the pilot of their ship, the Weak Anthropic Principle (W.A.P.) He’s dreamed of captaining his own ship, but he’ll make do with what he’s got.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low, rough
He’s a brilliant surgeon who classifies random objects as “goodies” or “baddies” depending on the sound they make when he punches them. I don’t want him anywhere near my brain.
I always dreamed of captaining my own P-6—followin’ the likes of Shockwave and Sixshot and the other big guns. I’d have called it something majestic, like Mega Starpuncher or Mighty Spaceship.
Hey, twitch! You really think Primus cares about people like us?
A member of the D.J.D. A scientist and a “linguistic-purist” who is fluent in the Primal Vernacular, Old Cybertronian, and has only managed to speak a few words in the modern Transformers tongue, Neocybex, known to us as the English language. As a result, Tarn is usually the one to interpret what he says during a conversation. He transforms into a sniper rifle and forces his victims to wear his removable faceplate with which he activates its spikes. This character speaks in a native language so whoever is cast should keep this in mind. It will be loosely translated into Latin and while there isn’t an accurate translation of what he’s saying, I will provide an educated guess based on the conversations he’s had with the other members and their reactions in order for you to better get into character.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
(Struggling to speak Neocybex) Wear my faaace.
Vos. Kaon.
(Old Cybertronian to Latin) Eso teieredeeme geoenigehate exteo? (Loose translation: What is that horrible sound?)
One of the most powerful Autobot warriors throughout the galaxy as well as one of the most heroic and well-respected ones. He’s had an influence on almost every Cybertronian and travels in his ship, the Vis Vitalis, across the universe with his crew in search of the Knights of Cybertron, which needless to say hasn’t boded well with Rodimus as he’s on the same quest. In fact, he mostly views Thunderclash as a sort of nuisance or a rival even though Thunderclash views him in a positive light. Due to his spark being damaged, he’s on life support with his ship and can’t go anywhere without it, but continues to fight selflessly despite his odds.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
Not at all. It’s my crew—they’re the brave ones, choosing to travel with me.
No, no. I was being sincere. I’m smiling because we’re on our own quest. We’re looking for the Knights of Cybertron.
If I find the Knights before you do, I hope future generations realize that it was only possible because of your selflessness and integrity.
An unaligned Cybertronian who wants nothing more than for the rest of his brothers to live peacefully on Cybertron, without the senseless violence between the Autobots and the Decepticons. After having a taste in their war, he left and chose a better and more peaceful route. When the war ended, he and the rest of the non-affiliated indigenous lifeforms (NAILS) came back home. He’s been helping Bumblebee, and even Starscream, help bring their planet back onto its feet. After they defeated Megatron once more, Starscream killed Metalhawk in cold blood so that he may rule Cybertron. Not long after he took over, Shockwave resurrected him with one of his ores, and now he’s overwhelmed with rage as he agrees to help Shockwave in his plans. One of the issues portrays him as the more pacifist yet serious Cybertronian before the Dark Cybertron event occurs so whoever auditions for him should keep this in mind.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low, formal
(Angry) You killed me. I trusted you. I befriended you. And you killed me the moment it suited you.
Nothing is ever gone, Starscream... and everything comes back to haunt you.
(Calm, serious) I assure you, this situation is much worse than you believe.
Not the most trustworthy bot, and certainly not the bravest, though he’s seen his fair share of battles during the war. He prefers to sneak around and is usually seen in the gutters or in the trash as opposed to out in the open, which explains his foul odor. After a little stunt he pulled back in Iacon, Starscream, now ruler of Cybertron, has recruited him to be his advisor of sorts. Although Rattrap has agreed to the job offer, it’s unclear what his true motives are.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
You, ah, I don’t think dey’ll be real happy-like after ya—ah—kicked ‘em inta da wilderness…
Boss… look, I ain’t passin’ judgement—you just been hidin’ in dat closet since ya called the Lost Light. I’m thinkin’, yeah, Starscream, maybe safety is somewhere in yer whatchacall it—yer list o’ priorities.
Naw. I ain’t got ta do nothin’. Well, dat ain’t true. I do got ta admit… the end o’ the world would make one heck of a last move.
A very friendly Autobot who’s pretty small for his size, yet has the skills needed to survive after being stranded on the planet LV-II8 for many years. Since that time, he’s adopted a pattern of speech that involves him rhyming every sentence. He may be small, but he’s equipped with tools necessary to defend himself and aids Orion Pax, Garnak, and Hardhead in their attempts to stop Jhiaxus.
Voice Type: Medium-high, high
Made up Knights impossible to find—and so you decided to stay behind.
Find the enemy, attack—but please come back!
As of now there’s no way home—transmission fades, you’re on your own!
An Outlier who has been training under the Senator; he can magnetize himself and other objects into the air. However, he has yet to fully realize his abilities as he oftentimes will get distracted.
Voice Type: Meidum, medium-high
You’re lucky I got tired of waiting.
Well, if you’re serious about driving I can set us down—or if you’re really in a hurry you can jump.
Magic arms, Pax. That's what I call 'em.
Waspinator has an unfortunate case of bad luck. Whenever something goes wrong, it will usually happen to him. Nobody seems to respect him or care for him, though that’s mostly due to the fact that he allies himself with the wrong crowd, like Shockwave for example. He’s been hired to help bring a Necrotitan to him as part of his plan to destroy the universe. Perhaps a bit misunderstood, but he's still willing to do the dirty work of whoever‘s in charge.
Voice Type: Medium-high, high
Yez—but—itzz mind—recurzzive, zzcircling in upon itself… I can’t make zzenzze of itzz thoughtzz…
You don’t truzzt Waspinator, you don’t truzzt Zzhockwave… doezz you truzzt anyone..?
(Whimpering) Why univerzze hate Waspinator…?
A member of the Scavangers and a mystery to everyone. He gets distracted easily by anything that even remotely appears as a hostile shape and goes so far as to shoot that object or person. He isn’t the smartest member by any means, but he’s very skilled with his hands as he can remove explosive charges from a Cybertronians’ body and is an amazing surgeon.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
The fire’s giving me weird looks, Krok. I think I’m gonna shoot it.
(Angry, yelling) What am I reacting to and is anger appropriate?!
No, I get that. What I don’t get is why we don’t just give the D.J.D. whoever it was that did the bad thing.
One of the members of the D.J.D.; he’s the communications officer and is in charge of maintaining the list. His role in the group often involves him electrocuting his opponents whether he’s in his alt mode or not. Despite his rather cold demeanor, he can become very giddy when taking down an opponent.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
You’ve not met my pet Sparkeater, have you? He tends to chew sparks rather than eat them, but—“Sparkchewer?” It doesn’t really work, does it?
The war’s not over ‘til Megatron gives the word.
Okay, but just so we know—if this all goes wrong—I put the suggestion out there.
A good friend to Orion Pax and Ratchet during the pre-war days, he was a cop who helped Pax wherever he needed it. Being a Point One Percentor, he has incredible strength in the battlefield and is genuienly friendly when off duty as he's mostly seen lounging around the T.V. However, he has a tendency to compare himself to others and as a result, sparks some insecurities from within.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
(Tough) You starting something, buddy?
Call that running? I’ve seen continents move quicker than that.
I was born strong—and these days that only gets you so far. I can’t make forcefields, or stop things working, or—or magnetize the enemy. Pax keeps me around because we’re friends.
A former member of Nova Prime’s cadre and one of the most well respected Cybertronians who was held in high esteem by both Autobots and Decepticons. He holds the law above all else and believes it’s his duty to provide a framework in order to enforce order. However, he holds his convictions and concerns close to heart and has suffered because of it. With his newfound religion in Primus, he has plans to make peace no matter what crimes he’ll do in order to obtain it.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
The duly appointed enforcer of the Tyrest Accord is supposed to command respect—and you do not. You don’t. Not anymore.
Only those who are without guilt can cross over. I cannot open the portal until I have atoned for my sins.
Hear that sound, Rodimus? That’s the sound of creation in reverse—of life being unwritten, line by line.
During Cybertron’s energon outage, before the war officially broke out, he lead everyone who didn’t want to be a part of Cybertron away from the planet and gave them sanctuary in Crystal City in which he led the Circle of Light, a group of peaceful Cybertronians who chose not to associate themselves with either side. While he has seen many battles during his time, it has also made him wary, causing him to lean towards pacifism. Despite this, he’s a skilled warrior and will fight when the situation calls for it.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
Our numbers are but a tenth of what they once were.
The Legislators will never give up. They can’t. It’s not in their programming. The only way to stop them is to kill them—all of them.
I have to say, for a novice, that’s very… hm. That’s a surprisingly deep connection.
The new candidate for the duly appointed enforcer of the Tyrest Accord. His role is to serve Chief Justice Tyrest and assist him in wiping out everyone who was constructed cold. He believes that everything he does is truly justified and serves Primus regardless of the crimes he’s committing. He can be cold, ruthless, and is not someone to cross on the battlefield.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
Contrition without confession is meaningless… but then I’d expect nothing less from an apostate like you, Skids.
You never did anything—you just sat in Crystal City and waited for the Knights to come looking for you. Such arrogance…
Before I squeeze, I offer up one last shining truth: Primus hates you.
A member of Hun-Gar’s crew that joined up with Snap Trap’s forces in order to use pink alchemy to their needs. He has claimed to be a ‘Sparkeater’ as well as other intimidating titles in the past, though they are just for show.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
It’s amazing: six weeks since we joined forces and Hun-Gar still hasn’t introduced us to everyone.
(Alarmed) For the love of—it’s raining Autobots!
Another Constructicon who transforms into Devastator’s shoulders. While the group seems to view each other as equals, Hook can often view himself as superior to the average Decepticon. Like the rest of his team, they’ve partnered with Prowl and seem determined to go along with whatever he does.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
Whaddya know… Prowl musta come up with somethin’.
You know how I’m good at makin’ estimates? By way of a fer instance—I estimate about a gazillion of these little twerps engaging Metroplex. He’s got maybe five minutes left in him.
Yeah, you can take down Clowndome!
A member of the K-Class squad in the Decepticon ranks; he’s been assigned to attack the Autobots on Clemency. Despite having moments left to live, he tries to stay positive through it all.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
You weren’t in training, were you? Chin like that, I’d have remembered.
Sorry-bit of K-Class humor there. Just very excited to be here.
Not so much a fighter as he is a journalist as well as a news reporter. He’s mostly seen on the news as important events occur during the pre-war days of Cybertron.

The precise time of death has yet to be announced, but the Matrix flame burnt itself out last night.
In other news, Senator Proteus has refused to blame the killing of Senator Sherma on the Decepticon Movement, despite claims that a purple symbol was painted on the corpse.
... Exclusive footage of Nominus Prime's body being laid in the Primal Basilica. Tomorrow, the first of an estimated million mourners will view his corpse..
A Decepticon protestor who speaks out in the Decepticon Movement in an attempt to gather more members so they may be able to assert their freedom among the Senate.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
I say no! It’s nothing but a ploy to keep us distracted—to make sure we play at being good little citizens.
He has no intention—none whatsoever—of keeping his promise! Why? Because he hates us! He fears us!
Before Orion Pax became a Prime, Zeta was next to be given that title. At first, he seems like a decent fellow who befriends Optimus rather quickly. But once the battle between Megatron and the Autobots started, he began to show his true colors.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
No, but we have a mutual friend
I’ve not heard from him for a while—and he told me that if he ever disappeared, I was to seek you out.
I made you what you are, Orion... I made all of you what you are.
A former member of the Wreckers and is now an unaffiliated Cybertronian living in the new peace time that surrounds Cybertron. He’s determined to do good and help people whenever and wherever he can, however he was thrown in prison after being framed for causing a power outage. He believes Starscream to be the “Chosen One” as foretold by a titan, but his faith is surely on the wane with the events that are about to occur.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
Jzz follows orders. He believes in them. Just like I believe you’re the chosen one.
Stop scheming for one minute and feel remorse! You let the Dark Cybertron prophecy come true! You doomed us all!
Bumblebee—I know what you’re gonna say—but there’s enough going on out here. We won’t get bored.
A bot of few words; muscle is his specialty and he literally lives up to his name. He’s a soldier to the core with a bit of a stubborn streak, willing to take on anything that crosses his path. He had a good relationship with Nightbeat during the Autobots’ time on Earth and is now travelling with Orion Pax, Wheelie, and Garnak as they attempt to track down Jhiaxus and stop his evil schemes.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low, rough
What’s this one doing here? He stinks of ‘con.
So Rodimus, this quest of yours. It seems to me that you thought you’d just hop on a spaceship and leave everyone else to fix the mess on Cybertron.
Hey yappy—on behalf of taciturn types everywhere, allow me to punch your mouth off!
A member of the scientific class and a bit paranoid that the Senate could be listening in to the conversations of its citizens. He hopes that doing his duties will help ease his mind off of the subject, but also fears that the Decepticons will rise in power. Despite all this, he tries to keep a level head and goes on in life.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
So. What am I looking at again? Not more violence.
Careful. You sound like a Decepticon recruiting agent. Next you’ll be, “Why should you be tied to one job just because of your alt mode? Why should you be a function slave?”
Look, I’m scientific class. I turn into a proton microscope—the Functionists allow me a degree of occupational freedom because what I do is seen to have added value.
A well-known senator who’s able to not only fight with fire arms, but also put battles to an end with talking things out instead of using his fists. However, he’s an artist by nature and would much rather be remembered for that instead of his efforts spent in the war.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
That’s my wartime reputation. I’d rather be remembered for my art.
Thanks for the save, er—sorry. I don’t know your name.
(Trying to remember) Gah! I should know this. He introduced himself to me yesterday.
The leader of the Scavengers. Years ago, he got separated from his squad and joined the rest of this ragtag team with the likes of Misfire, Flywheels, Spinister, and Crankcase. He journeys with them as he searches for his old squad aboard their ship, the Weak Anthropic Principle. He tends to keep his cool and is usually the one who comes up with most of the plans.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
We’re expropriation specialists, you see, and it’s Misfire’s job to extract energon from our fallen comrades. Trouble is, he can’t resist sampling the goods.
How long have you been a Decepticon, Crankcase? It’s a bit late to start questioning the grand plan.
We’re scavengers—we’re going to do what we do best… we’re going to make use of what’s been left behind.
One of the members of the Lost Light. He’s known for being loud whenever he speaks as his vocal synthesizer is often at the highest frequencies all the time. He doesn’t really care if that’s the case though, but it does tend to annoy the other members of the crew and the concept of an ‘indoor voice’ hasn’t reached him yet.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
(Shouts, excited) Brilliant!
Hey! I’m walking here!
Hostage situation enters its third hour, you are reminded that level 7 is a restricted area!
One of the few Cybertronians who hoped to change the natural order of society and fight the corrupt Senate before the war between the Autobots and the Decepticons occurred. He allied himself with Optimus Prime, known then as Orion Pax, in the hopes that he would one day carry the Matrix and bring a new age of hope. He also holds a secret academy for Outliers, Transformers with special abilities, away from the Senate so that they can hone their skills and learn how to use their powers without being caught for neglecting their alt modes. While he does seem a bit mysterious and his motives aren't always clear, he's very friendly and down to earth and wants nothing more than the best for the citizens of Cybertron.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
(Friendly) Heroes, one and all… I’ve lost count of the millions I’ve spent on search missions.
(Irritated) Bother me? Orion, it was all I could do to stop myself storming up to Sentinel and tearing his head off. But my anger has got me into trouble in the past—these days I have to keep my volatility in check.
(Sincere) Remember me as I was.
An escape artist who can act cool-headed and logical under the most dire of circumstances. Combined with these skills is his sharp tongue for getting out of sticky scenarios and staying one step ahead of everybody, however he’s been known to talk down on people and manipulate them as a means to an end. He can be laid-back one moment and cold and mischievous the next. He's strong in his beliefs in being an Autobot, but if anyone disagrees with him, it will usually lead to consequences later on.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low, cool
Bomp. When you—bomp—say something funny or clever or bomp, that’s what I do. You hate it. You say it’s patronizing. Which it is. Which is why I do it.
Credit where it’s due, scout—can I call you scout?—you were amazing. You’ll make a Prime one day.
That’s Metroplex’s thumb? The greatest titan of them all, and you’ve got his thumb on board? I love this ship.
Thunderclash’s first officer on board the Vis Vitalis. He’s fought by his commander’s side more times than he can count and has been saved by Thunderclash on numerous occasions. However, there’s a secret that he’s been keeping from his captain as well as the rest of the crew as it’s discovered he’s an Ammonite, a dangerous race of robot soldiers, and keeps his true motives hidden.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
It’s his own fault. If he sees someone in distress—if he sees innocent people suffering—he just has to get involved.
We navigate by instinct and faith. From time to time Thunderclash enters a trance-like state, during which he receives divine direction.
(After his reveal) I vote we pause a moment. Anyone who disagrees can watch Thunderclash lose his head.
Formally one of Megatron’s top fighters as well as the former leader of the Seekers, now he’s the ruler of Cybertron. However, being in charge hasn’t necessarily changed his attitude. While he claims to hold the interests of the people of Cybertron at heart, he still seems to be scheming and making sure he stays at the top. He mostly cares for himself and his own interests, though will do anything to make sure his ‘throne’ isn’t taken from him.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high; open to interpretation, either a past Starscream voice or your own.
I appreciate you coming back and popping up out of the ground, but you’re kinda looking worse for the wear. And that’s—well, it’s panicking the rubes—er, I mean, the citizens of Cybertron.
I haven’t been hiding… I’ve been preparing. There’s a difference, my fuzzy little friend.
(Nervously) Hey, I’m sure we can work something out… I mean, this is the dawn of a whole new day…
An extremely skilled Cybertronian who is a great sharp-shooter as well as an assassin. In her early years, she was experimented on and tortured by Jhiaxus, but after her escape she vowed to kill him for revenge. She was able to do so countless times in the Dead Universe until he was fixed by Galvatron later on. Once she managed to escape the Dead Universe, she worked for Prowl as a secret soldier for a time in order to keep the peace on Cybertron, though has recently found an interest in becoming an Autobot and helping out Bumblebee. Despite her new change in ways, she retains a snarky attitude and still seems eager to shoot any Decepticons that come her way.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
Say the word and it starts raining little opportunist parts—and I guarantee I won’t need a second shot.
Yes, exactly. I’ve decided to become THAT sentimental
You know what, Whirl? We really should’ve hung out more… I mean, before we went down fighting while the universe dies around us.
A Dinobot who was a part of Grimlock’s team, and is most likely the reason for their bad reputation. He can be mean-spirited, nasty, and especially violent. When he fights, he’ll fight dirty and likes nothing more than beating the scrap out of his opponents. He isn’t too fond of Optimus Prime, which is something he and Sludge both share an opinion of, but he often will argue with Grimlock from time to time, disagreeing with his plans and ends up storming off on his own. Despite this, he does care about the rest of the Dinobots, he just has a hard time showing it. With Grimlock’s disappearance since he was sent to Garrus 9, he’s been in charge of the team and either helps out the Autobots, or does his own thing.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low, rough
Nobody orders Dinobots but Dinobots, Goldenrod. Anyway… not gonna make much difference what we do.
You heard Bumblebee. Time to get blasted. I was tired of all his whining, anyway.
That’s the thing, Autobot—it’s not paying attention to us! (To Necrotitan) Hey! Hey, jerk! You can’t ignore the Dinobots!
One of the more friendly and upbeat Dinobots as well as an excellent aerial combatant. He’s become skilled at using fear in order to scare his opponents with his alt mode. He can be a bit of a show off and, like the rest of the Dinobots, can be arrogant, disobedient, and will often disagree with Optimus Prime. If there is one thing he likes, though it's watchng a good fight.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
Whatever this giant is, it’s not moving. Nothing threatening, nothing… well, nothing anything.
Uh, sure—but you get what I mean when I say “Blasting’s not doing any good”?
Ah. You know… typical Dinobot stuff.
A Camien who resides from the planet Caminus and is a cityspeaker to Metroplex. Ever since Metroplex was damaged by the Ammonites, she’s been able to communicate with him, after being sent on a mission to find him along with Chromia and Nautica. She and her friends come across members of the Lost Light and team up not only to save Metroplex, but to stop Shockwave. She can be a bit naïve, knowing almost nothing about Cybertron, but becomes very friendly to new faces yet knows when to get serious.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
Don’t get your hopes up—it seems to have become… inert. Chromia and your friend—Perceptor?—are analyzing the ore.
Yes, well, it takes more than—wait, did you say the universe is ending? The universe is ending? What kind of a person starts a conversation like that?
If you want some pointers, Nautica, look to your other sister-in-arms. Because Arcee’s nailing it.
One of Megatron’s most reliable soldiers and is extremely loyal to both him and to the Decepticon cause. Although his rank is communications officer, he stands by his leader’s side just as much as Starscream and Shockwave do. He believes that the Decepticon cause stands for equality among all Cybertronians and views Prime and anyone else who hold high power as the enemy and vows to continue to serve Megatron for as long as it takes to accomplish their goal of peace through tyranny. He’s allied himself with a few Decepticons whom he’s made into cassettes and holds them very close to his spark. With Megatron captured and Starscream in charge of Iacon, he leads the rest of the Decepticons in order to stop Shockwave’s nefarious goals of destroying the universe.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
Shockwave—I have never thought highly of you—but to betray our cause for the sake of a Prime is beyond comprehension.
No. The titan still blocks all transmissions. But… wait… I do hear something. Something I have never heard before… I hear Megatron… screaming.
Decepticons engage—operation: salvation!
A feared and skilled warrior; he is trained in the ancient Cybertron martial art of Metallikato. His fiery blade can cut through many things and is his primary weapon when on the battlefield. He often adheres to a code of honor, but his ruthlessness in battle makes him a force to be reckoned with. He has aided Jhiaxus and Nova Prime in the past before and seems to be aiding them once more in Shockwave’s goal to destroy the universe.
This one appears to have expired, master.
Your skills are stolen, not earned—feigned, not felt. This isn’t Metallikato, this is mimicry.
Fool! I invented that punch because I wanted you close.
An Autobot soldier who responds well to improvisation. His position as Special Operations makes him the bot for any kind of situation for all the skills that he possesses. He can handle almost anything the Decepticons throw at him. However, during his time on Earth, he accidentally killed a human. This is something that will haunt him forever and he has grown tired of the fighting ever since. After the war ended, he enjoyed the time on Cybertron, but once Megatron attacked, he fought again and then became a member of Starscream’s forces when he became ruler in order to try and keep the peace.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
You want a couple minutes, Starscream? Fine.
I know you’re just a gambler who cheated an’ got lucky—but ain’t nobody’s luck lasts forever.
One of the Senate’s enforcers who is promised protection in exchange for doing their dirty work and he loves every minute of it. He's a punk who doesn’t care who gets hurt while on the job.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low, rough
It’s all gonna kick off. You’ll see. Before the week is out, Proteus will break his promise and Sentinel will make his move.
Best. Tip off. Ever
Oh, you’ll see him again. Then again, given what Anvil is about to do to you… maybe you won’t.
A loyal enforcer of the Galactic Council, particularly the peacekeeping wing and is very knowledgeable about the Code of Interplanetary Conflict, though not as knowledgeable as Ultra Magnus is. He has much respect for Magnus and what he does even though he does not trust Cybertronians in the slightest nor tolerates them due to their 4 million year civil war across the galaxy.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
I am Captain K’gard of the Benign Intervention. I represent the peacekeeping wing of the Galactic Council. And you are?
You’re better than them. Better than that petulant captain of yours, anyway.
Your great strength, Ultra Magnus, is your inflexibility. You’re detatched and impartial and remote—and that’s how it should be.
While not the best or skilled fighter, he does have a kind heart. He’s good at following orders and after helping Rodimus return to the other Autobots after finding him on the planet LV-II8, he’s been travelling with Orion Pax, Wheelie, and Hardhead to stop Jhiaxus from causing trouble to the universe. He also has the ability to heal any injuries to his body and is a good engineer, being able to fix his fellow Autobot friends if necessary.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
Outta the fryin’ pan and into the… I dunno. You metal guys never really fry anything.
(Happy, excited, hugging Rodimus) Think maybe I’ll never let sir go!
An Autobot born as a Point One Percenter and is considered to be a load-bearer, someone who is capable of surviving drastic physical augmentations. He’s always had big dreams and aspires to serve on the front lines as a soldier like most of the Auobots who fought in the Great War. Due to some unforeseen events, he’s been arrested by Ultra Magnus and is awaiting trial in Chief Justice Tyrest’s base of operations.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
You're thinking of my spark brother, Dominus Ambus. The House of Ambus has a very distinct facial insignia… but Dominus is long gone.
Don't do anything rash. Escape attempts are often construed as evidence of guilt.
Is that why you’re keeping me out of the loop? Luna 1, the Titans outside… and don’t think I haven’t noticed the space bridge portal in the corner. What’s this about, Tyrest?
A Cybertronian who voiced in infomercials in the pre-war days of Cybertron in an attempt to attract new potential customers.

A NAIL (Non-Aligned Indigenous Life-Form) Who's grown tired of all the fighting during the 4 million year civil war and just wants to live in peace.

Voice Type: Medium, medium-high

The last few days? The last few days?! Try the last four million years!
(Confused, nervous) "NAIL"? What...?
A former senator in the pre-war days of Cybertron who is now a member of the Decepticons and one of Soundwave's cassettes. He's sly, crafty, and plans on becoming the next leader of the Decepticons despite what everyone else thinks.
Voice Type: Medium-high, high
Optimus, surely you can help a senator whose reputation had been fairly tarnished...
No! They're just using you! My Decepticons... we must rise against the Autobots!
You just don't understand, Starscream.
A scientist who’s responsible for creating the gestalt Monstructor as well as forming the Jhiaxian Academy of Advanced Technology in which he trained the Senator. He ventures off with Nova, Galvatron, and Cyclonus into the Benzuli Expanse and ends up getting trapped in the Dead Universe along with them. He’s also responsible for performing experiments on Arcee and aids Shockwave in his plans to take over the universe.
Voice Type: Medium-high, high
Superstitious nonsense, my lord. The era of myth and legend is long over. Ours is an era of science. There is a rational explanation for this phenomenon.
This universe shall bend to your every command, Shockwave. But take care to keep your bearings—you may find yourself unstuck in time… psychologically speaking.
Not bad, given the circumstances… but my reactive armor can match anything you throw at me.
One of Lockdown’s Titan hunters. Along with his partner Venom, he's been ordered to retrieve a fragment of Metroplex which was detected onboard the starship known as the Lost Light. He can be a bit ruthless and enjoys hunting down Autobots just as much as he loves hunting Titans.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low, rough
I think so. I heard a scream.
Come out, come out, come out and play. I don't know what happened to your friends, but I don't think you're responsible.
A member of the Functionist Council who fills the role of "Authenticator." If circumstances seem necessary, he will allow others to be alt-mode exempt and grants them freedom to choose a path of their own making instead of the one that's predetermined due to their assigned alt mode.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
It's viable. I will arrange for it to be excavated ahead of the nuturing.
A grave misuse of statistics, but yes... the first in ten generations.
By the power vested in me by the Functionist Council, I hereby reclassify you. You are now alt mode exempt and free to pursue a path of your own choosing.
A Decepticon sympathizer and a senator in the pre-war days of Cybertron. He's been asked to check out a discovery in the mines on Luna 2.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
(Answering a call) Momus of Helex. Mo-mus. I'm calling in a code 113.
You're saying this is a genuine Point One Percentor?
Which means... there's a reward, isn't there?
This role consist of various Cybertronian civilians throughout the story who only have a line or two. There are a ton of Cybertronians whose age (in human years) range from young adults to middle-age adults to seniors. There are also a couple of alien soldiers who are ordered to attack some Autobots in one story so they will apply here too for the extra roles. I'm open to any and all interpretations you may have as they can pretty much be anybody. Since there are quite a few Cybertronians no one single actor will be given the role. Instead, multiple actors will be contacted for a role should I like what I hear. Just make sure you have a good microphone quality is all I ask.
(Distressed) Starscream! Protect us! Save us from the Titan!
The New Institute was the old you. You're a better person now...
(Alarmed, scared) Have you seen the sky? What's happening to the sky?
A member of the Lost Light and seems to be pretty lucky due to his confidence in placing bets. He usually comes out on top, but when he doesn’t his mood takes a drastic turn. He also spends his time with Trailbreaker drinking at Swerve’s, though isn’t always sober by the end of it.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high

Originally from the Darklands, he rose to fame for his skills as a warrior in the First Cybertronian Civil War. He’s a warrior by nature, acting on impulse with no regard for the safety of others and believes that he is superior to everyone else. He loves nothing more than a battle and savors every moment when given the chance as he hates not being able to take action. He and Nova Prime were good allies years ago and the two of them join up once more to aid Shockwave in his nefarious schemes.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
They run like… like cowards. If they believed in their cause they would have stood and died for it! In my time, being a warrior meant something.
How many millions of years have you fought? Four? That is but a skirmish in the eyes of Galvatron.
Ha! Well spoken, Decepticon… I had hoped a fire still burned in some of you.
A field commander of the Ammonite army. They’ve been at war with the Terradores and make it out as if they’re the enemy. To them, they are. But to the Autobots, as events start to unfold, that isn’t the case, but he tries to get along with a couple of the crew members before their war abruptly ends.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
"Skids.” What a strange name. I’m 16444/9. I’m a field commander with the Ammonite army. We’re at war with the accursed Terradores.
For me personally? For me and my men? Not good, Skids. Not good. We’re being pursued by the Terradorians’ imperial guard, and they’re relentless.
It’s them! The imperial guard! They’ve found us!
A Decepticon who was convicted of cowardice after running from an Autobot attack and was sentenced to death to the Traitor’s Wheel. However, that order changed when he was assigned to K-Class along with other Decepticon prisoners and was re-engineered to turn into a bomb and explode after jumping. But in the end, his cowardice saved him from going off and wound up meeting a ragtag group of Decepticons called the Scavengers, who scour the galaxy looking for parts to spare and fresh energon, all the while discovering his new found freedom as well as a side of the Decepticons he never knew before.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
(Nervous) The thing about me—my big thing—is this: I’m really not keen on dying. Now survival—oh wow, huge fan, put me down for some of that.
But there’s always been a war! That’s like saying there’s no more blue, or—or the weather’s stopped!
All our lives we’ve followed orders—all our lives someone else has always told us what to do next! Well, not anymore! For the first time in forever we can do whatever we like! We’re free!
An old veteran fighter and one of Optimus’s close friends. He’s one of the oldest Autobots around and would much rather use his fists in a fight instead of talking things out. He’s a simple kind of bot and despite being a bit rough around the edges, he often tries to stay positive and optimistic. He may be old, but he’s got a lot of heart and enough energy to continue the fight.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
They ain’t lunkheads, Prowl. They’re just brave.
We’re in position, Bee—this thing’s got zero directions it can go without getting’ a face-full o’ Autobot. Well… a foot-full anyway.
Aw, come on. You been at this world-conquerin’ nonsense fer millions o’ years—an that’s the level o’ discourse I gotta deal with?
A predecessor to Nominus Prime who led the unification of a divided Cybertron. He, alongside Galvatron, Jhiaxus, and Cyclonus, embarked on the original Ark into the Benzuli Expanse, but was sucked into the Dead Universe during their travels. While he remained there, he became a host for the Darkness, an otherworldly counterpart of the Matrix of Leadership, which could grant dead warriors to become undead, but yet not alive. He’s also known as Nemesis Prime and while he once sought to bring about a golden age for Cybertron, all he does is wreck havoc as he plots to take back his rightful place as the true Prime. He believes himself to be superior to others and is a powerful opponent, especially in the Dead Universe where the world is his playground.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low, formal
You’re privileged, Orion Pax. Not only are you standing next to the center of the universe… but he appears to recognize you.
Shush, now… I spy an old crewmate. I say “crewmate”—maybe “hired hand” is better. You only ended up on the Ark because you were Galvatron’s favorite bodyguard.
Cretin! You presume to lay hands on the carapace of Nova Prime?!
An Autobot veteran who has seen his fair share of battle; his role as a leading commander has gotten him far in the Autobot ranks. He strives to do good and bring his Autobot soldiers home, though would like some down time to explore different areas. He can be friendly when off duty, but very stern and strict when it comes to giving out orders to his team.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
Those engine rooms are cursed. Anyone who walks past the quantum generators ends up crippled or dead.
Hold your ground, Autobots! Don’t let them into the ship! And remember—they’re combiners! Best to break them apart and pick them off individually!
If you’re injured, or can assist the injured, please report to First Aid in the Medibay.
A detective who absolutely loves mystery, conspiracy, and secrets. He’s always on the trail for clues and different phenomena in the universe and would like nothing more than to unravel all of its secrets.

Voice Type: Medium, medium-low
I collect clues—and I guard my collection jealously. There are only a handful of proper mysteries left, and I want to unravel at least one of them.
If you ever discover you’ve been brainwashed into being a sleeper agent for Nova Prime, ask Hardhead to take care of the problem—he’s brilliant at it!
Murders are my favorite. A dead body’s just a statement. A murder is a question: Who done it?
His primary role is to take other Decepticons to their destination and while that’s useful to the others, he craves power and wants a little bit more out of life. The thrill of hunting down Autobots is what usually gets him through the day.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
(Injured, weak) Didn’t want (cough) to let Megatron know(cough). He’d think I was (cough, cough).
Can you see anything, Swoop?

Omega Supreme’s still in a coma and the Aerialbots are still down—I can’t even tell if they’re alive. Your Autobot medic created a mess.
One of the Duobots and members of the Lost Light who recently died after being too close to the quantum generators when the ship originally took off. Due to some unforeseen events, he has come back to life but is still attached to the quantum engines.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
(Scared) Where am I? Why can’t I see anything? Why can’t I feel anything?
Why not? Peace is the freedom to do whatever you want. Unless you’re talking about inner peace, in which case I doubt any of us will ever feel that again.
See, that’s important. If it didn’t bother him, then he really would be a scumbag.
One of the Constructicons who transforms into Devastator’s leg. After him and the rest of his team tried to merge with Prowl in order to become Devastator again, they’ve grown fond of him due to his cold outlook on life. Since then, they’ve agreed to partner up with him as well as help him defeat Shockwave.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
You may be black and white, but underneath—you’re Constructicon green.

Wanna team up and scratch it?

He believes that freedom is the right of all sentient beings and wants to protect the innocent from the likes of Megatron and his army. After giving Bumblebee and Rodimus his two halves of the Matrix, he is now free to roam the galaxy and is free from his role as leader. As such, he has been traveling with Hardhead, Wheelie, and Garnak as they track down Jhiaxus.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-low, you can either stick close to Peter Cullen's portrayal of the character or you can do your own interpretation.
I don’t know what I find more upsetting: the citizen overdosing on circuit boosters, or the two thugs torturing him for their own depraved amusement.
I—no. No, of course not, Ultra Magnus. I’m just a guest—a grateful guest. In fact, perhaps you could give me a tour of the ship while we discuss next moves…
I fear that would make for a somewhat stilted conversation. After all, we’ve been strangers for the last four million years.
A former Decepticon who decided to become unaffiliated after the war ended and tries to live a peaceful life in the city of Iacon. However, ever since Shockwave rose a Necrotitan from the ground, which in turn caused nothing but destruction for Cybertron, he’s had his fill for war and violence and blames the new ruler of their city, Starscream, for the problems.

"Easy”? I’ve had it with taking things easy. I came back to Cybertron to be free from war.
Scoop is preaching the right idea about you—the only thing you’re chosen for is screwing everything up.
A former racer of the Ibex championship who became an Autobot in the fight against the Decepticons. He loves racing and would much rather be doing that instead of fighting on the front lines, but does like making a difference. However, after Prowl sent him to go after the Constructicons alone, he wound up taking a beating due to no backup. Blaming Prowl for what happened, he didn’t want to take part in any more fighting between the Autobots and Decepticons and choose to run a bar on Cybertron, Maccadam’s. Due to his old life in racing, he can be a bit cocky and self-centered, especially when it came to the fame, but his spark is in the right place.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high, you can either stick close to John Moschitta's portrayal of him in which he talks super fast, a portrayal involving a 'cool guy' type of personality in which he talks fairly normal, or your own.
You ever been to the Circle downtown? The music’s awful, but otherwise it’s pretty cool. I think I might buy it when I retire.
Quart of engex, please. Smelting pool hot.
(Awkwardly) Er—not at all. Nice to meet you.
A member of the D.J.D. He’s easily bored, though has no trouble exterminating his opponents. His body was built for torture as his pair of waldos that are functional over his shoulders are able to grab hold of a smaller ‘bot and force them through his chest, filled with tons of blades that shred Cybertronians to pieces.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low
Bored now. Who’s next on the list?
No offense, but your feet are massive. We’ll just have to do this head first.
He’s respected for his destructive skills on the battlefield and is often referred to as an absolute terror among others, but has a rude attitude that can rival that of Skywarp. He has a bit of an abrasive personality; being cold, having a lust for battle, and is oftentimes crude. The other Decepticons may find him unpleasant most of the time, but his efforts in the Decepticon cause have been most effective.
Voice Type: Medium-low, low, rough
I signed on to kill Autobots—not climb around rocks in space.
They told me you were delightful, Arcee. They weren’t exaggerating.
(Worried) Astrotrain—get up—answer me, buddy!
One of Soundwave’s cassettes and known for his big mouth. His attitude can resemble that of a street punk and acts tough in most circumstances. Due to his destructive nature as well as his abilities, he’s not the most subtle soldier when it comes to stealth and is more in his element when he’s causing mayhem for his enemies. Frenzy is his closest partner in crime and they're both loyal to Soundwave through thick and thin.
Voice Type: Medium, medium-high
Okay, okay… anybody want to throw out a guess? What was that wave of… whatever it was?
What we need is ta get outta here! Ravage is down again.
