TFP Stuff--Cybertron's Age of Darkness

SpiderMilkshake

O~O; In Prime, there are several historical "Ages" to Cybertron. There's the recent one (which is still probably about 8,000 years total XD), back further is the Golden Age (awesome times), Age of Wrath (Quintesson Wars--read Covenant of Primus ;) ), and before that the Age of "Evolution" (which is kind of a misnomer since Cybertronians by nature do not evolve, being non-DNA-exchange-boogie-doing creatures). This Age was characterized by the planet being oppressed by the Predacons, a faction (not a species--common mistake!) that was basically monstery-beastformers who thought they were a superior form of life on Cybertron. Yyyyyyyeah... Transformer nazis, basically. With the general dickishness, genocide and torture included. Thems was not nice critter-robots. Not at all like RiD Grimlock or Onyx Prime (some nice critter-robots :3).

It is strongly implied that their arrogance killed them. :/ As a cataclysm approached, they refused to shelter like the other groups of Cybertronians (which presumably included other non-Predacon beastformers... "Predacon" after all is a faction name, not a subtype or body type name) and as such were affected by strange energy which caused them to begin slaughtering each other. Before the eventual meteorfalls which ended up killing most of the others. The only remaining three Predacons were the original Predaking, Skylynx, and Darksteel (not the clones you see in the Prime TV series! They are clones--memory and general personality type intact but different entities. Cybertronian cloning is, uhh... different! XD), who either made peace with their past crimes and repented, forsaking the Predacon faction ideals... or were tried and executed by the surviving Cybertronians. It is mentioned they were "not seen after going underground"... but since their dead-ass bones are found in the modern times... yyyyeah. They died somehow. And Cybertronian lifespans are quite long.

.>:/ Yeah, I don't like the Predacons in Prime very much. The ones actually seen are better than the drago-nazi-robots of the past, but... Preda-clone and his cronies are still DICKS. Even fighting for the Autobots that one time they manage to still keep their snouts turned up and keep up the jerkitude. Let't not forget, the clone ones still have the beliefs of the old Predacons... so yeah, why they aren't central villains in the sequel to Prime (RiD15) is a mystery to me. Predaking would be a well-conceived villain character--not cartoon-villain evil, but obvious enough that he's not doing things for good reasons... O~O;

So... long lore-spiel aside... ^^; Here's a dark, scary scene from bad times. Predacons gathering outside of a looted fortress, spreading their cruelty across the planet. Things will change, but for now... hide and hope they don't find you, or your family.

:| This took foreeeeeeeeever. I have literally been on this for... almost a year. X'D
