I am wondering if anyone else had an idea of a Transformers set? I'd like to try out in such an RP but I'm a little shy in starting it myself as I lack the experience with GM-ing and Transformers in general (just got started on the Prime series with my younger cousin and started reading the comics).

Checking to see if anyone is interested in something like this and if anyone is willing to create the RP or co-host.

NOTE: BAYFORMERS WILL NOT BE TOLERATED IN THIS ROLEPLAY.

So do you wanna base this off Prime or G1?

I prefer Prime.

I have liked the Prime verse since it was understandable.

If anyone comes up with a plotsie, I wouldn't mind joining in. Prime's become the big TF love of mine.

All I ask is that I can play a Seeker. Cause those high heels are snazzy as all hell.

Unless we're playing with canon chars?

I have a natural Decepticon OC that I want to use and I have used her for years.

Can't wait to use her once again.

I'm not really comfortable with G1, so preferably Prime. The Prime storyline is easy to understand and pick up where it left off.

As to canon chars, I'm not really comfortable, since you're kinda confined by their original backstory and they don't allow for much character development. I'd rather prefer to come up with original ones.

EDIT: I'll start the OOC once 5 people are interested. Invite your mates!

I'm interested, was brought over by Tearstone. I'm a lover of Prime as well. Any thoughts on limits as to do we only have to play Autobots/Decpticons or can we play humans as well?

I'm fine with humans, but they should not be the main focus point in the story like the filthy Bayformers. As for the factions, I don't mind siding one of the originals or creating a new one.

On a side note, would you guys like scrapping the entire character roster and coming up with a new one or going along with the existing characters?

EDIT: I've decided on the pre-Prime setup as it allows for greater character development.

EDIT: Or would you guys like the roleplay to take place in an alternate universe where the Decepticons triumph and a small group of Autobots and humans fight against them?

Umm... isn't that how it usually is, or isn't that always the case?

Well I was meaning more like say an Autobot that has a flight mode and the human is he's partner/Pilot?

Ye, I was just trying to say that in this Universe, the Decepticons have finally established themselves as the rulers of Earth and have wiped the planet wholly of humans and Autobots except those in hiding.

Ye, that's fine too.

Interested. Also am I the only Unicron Trilogy fan out there? :D

Hey Forsythe.

Please quote the right person. I did not ask that question. Hakai did. -- This bugs me. (Attention to detail)

@Tearstone: Hai. You planning on quitting thsi one too after a while? *bricked* xD

Interested. Also, I vote for the Prime Setup, where the Cons have the distinct advantage, with access to more soldiers and equipment, but are still in the preparation stages of full scale invasion.

Not a fan of grimdark "All but a few are dead" settings when it comes to Transformers.

Also, I believe that Human characters can work in Transformers, they just have to feel realistic. Which is why the kids from Prime worked much better than most other Transformers humans. Jack felt like a standard teenaged kid with a strong moral compass, sure he fucked up every so often, but he always meant well. Raf was the strongest character because we all know somebody like him, someone who was shunned by the real world and so escaped into the virtual one, but just needs some "not assholes" to help show him that the real world isn't as bad as you think (I know this kid exists because I was this kid). Which is why Miko was probably the weakest character. She seemed like a teenaged pop-rocker girl, as written by middle-aged men.

Q: No matter what the setting, what era would this be? Post-Megatron? The war? Before? AU?

@Tearstone: Hai. You planning on quitting thsi one too after a while? *bricked* xD

Keep that attitude up and I might.

I'm still waiting to see if I want to join this. For me, it's often better if I just leave, rather than get into it with other players or GM's when they start leaving a bad taste. (In this case it was a player). It also just kills any drive or desire to be in the RP. It's a sign of greater conflicts and problems to come in the OOC, and I don't need to turn into A$$hole-asaurus Rex, which I can do.

Other times I get distracted, but have the intention of continuing with what I was originally doing. However, it turns out that I don't come back like I thought I would. Sometimes, it turns out to not be as fun/interesting as I thought it would be. Sometimes it's a combination of factors. #Piscesproblems #INTJProblems

@Tearstone I think that was a joke. Calm down, bro.

I'm fine. Just explaining the circumstances of certain past events, as a continued pattern. It's not easy to get me into an emotional state.

Humans should not be allowed as playable characters.
