The Story of Optima Prime ((Open Rp Starter))

“My story begins eons ago. Back in my own dimension. We weren’t very different from the others. We had war between Autobots and Decepticons. The only difference was that I am a femme, not a mech. My lover was Elite one, he was a very abusive mech. But I felt like I had no choice, he was my mate. But then he and the last seven mechs disappeared. After that our planet began to die. Megatrona, my world’s Megatron, became more insane. 

Her lead scientist, Shocky, my worlds Shockwave, created a device that was supposed to be something to kill me. But instead it sent me to another dimension. I do believe it was thanks to the matrix of leadership that saved me.” Optima records her message. She isn’t sure who is going to listen to it, but she feels like she needs to record her history. She touches her spark chamber where the matrix rests. 

“I ended up in a dimension that I later labeled G1. Everyone was so blocky, but they were also very kind, and their war was very.............interesting.” Optima said while giggling a bit. She remembers watching them, and laughing as their war was more comical than it was actually serious. “I helped out where I could, without getting too much in the way. At least until their scientist, Wheeljack was able to create a dimension jumper. He made it small enough to where I could carry it with me. He and Perceptor couldn’t hone in on my dimension. But they hoped that I would be able to jump enough until I can tune in on it.” She said while looking up at the night sky. 

“After a few jumps and pauses to let the device recharge, I ended up in one that I called Prime. Because to me it was a prime setting. I had found a mech that loved me, and I had a human to look after. She was very promising. Once the Decepticons of that world got a hold of her. They turned her into a Cybertronian. That’s when I adopted her. Eventually she became known as Nighten Gale. She would have inherited my matrix after I was gone.  Life was great, Daughter ended up becoming Mates with Optimus. Which I was so happy for. But as time went on my mech left me. He grew tired of me, but I had managed to reason with Megatron. He ended the war, and we were able to reconnect with my home dimension. Between the two worlds, we actually were able to revive both Cybertrons, and come with a stable and fair government.” She said as she looks off to the side, and watches the wild life of the desert.

Optima was in a desert on a version of Earth. She was using a rock formation to lean against. She had cloth wrapped around her like a cloak. She is missing her left arm, she is running low on energon. Which is why she feels she needs to share her story. She doesn’t know if she will make it for much longer. “I ruled as the Prime of Justice and Peace, while Megatron was the one that would punish those that broke the laws. We were able to find a balance. And through that I adopted so many younglings. Because we decided to bring peace to other dimensions. Or at least offer refuge for their civilians, and get them out of harm's way. I fell in love a few more times, but each time they left. Two of them actually died in protecting me and our family. One was Ratchet, another was a Megatron. In time I realized that I was cursed when it came to giving my spark to someone.” She said while sighing. 

“I eventually adopted a Dreadwing. He was my other promising child. He had so much honor and respect. I knew when I was gone, and along with Megatron that I ruled my world with, Dreadwing and Nighten Gale would have kept things going. But we were too blind, we all were too trusting. A virus started to rampage through my world. And started turning them all into something worse than terricons. It was almost like they were terricons mixed with Scraplets. They would start attacking each other and trying to eat each other.” Optima said while choking on a sob. 

“We evacuated as many as we could. I never realized Megatrona was still that badly insane. She had somehow created this virus. She was bent on destroying everything I had built. Even though we had peace, and happiness. She still wants energon shed. Mostly mine. She was the only one able to control those that succumbed to the virus. And to try and protect other worlds, I stayed after everyone was evacuated.” She said as she adjusts. She is trying to ease her pains, and sends on one last distress blip. She doesn’t have the energy to keep it going. 

“But apparently Primus doesn’t want me to be offline just yet. Or at least he didn’t want me offline there. I have managed to make it to this Earth. I don’t know if anyone is going to find me in time. My injuries are severe. But I must warn you, Megatrona will try to find me, even if I am offlined. She will come here, and destroy everything. I have a small sample of the virus in a vile. I keep it near the matrix, because that is the only thing that makes me immune to it. Please, if you find me after I am offlined, make a cure for the virus. Save yourselves from it. If you have to use my matrix to do whatever you need to do. I can’t bear the thought of anymore innocents being lost because of me.” She said as tears fell down her cheeks. “I am sorry I ended up here. I am sorry that I brought this here. But please, protect yourselves, and if you make a cure, please help my people, they are my family.” She pleads as the tears fall. 

But then she looks up at the night sky one last time. “I wish Primus would stop torturing me. And finally let me rest easily.” She said as she hiccups. She drops the datapad next to her, and closes her eyes, as she goes into stasis. Unsure of what is going to happen to her next.

Valma’s Cybertron

(I’ll be posting something similar in a little bit for Memory’s Earth/Memory.)

During an RP with a friend that involved Valma’s post-book version, I’ve managed to come up with a few concepts that will probably remain with Valma in RPs (any concept involving the canon ship, Optima, will not be brought up in an RP/used due to the multi-ship stuff).

Valma is the sole ruler of Cybertron, with Optimus remaining as an Autobot leader (he sorts out the mining, repair, etc., teams while Valma is more for one-on-one issues).

Cybertron’s core (I haven’t read the comics or watched all of G1 so please bear with me I think Primus is meant to be Cybertron’s core but not in this universe don’t kill me please) is malfunctioning and not providing power to the whole planet.

In response to that, Valma has had power cut off to the Chambers (where she lives), so that more power can be diverted to the cities/living quarters of the cybertronians.

Valma is actively trying to re-establish a government group of multiple people, but the cybertronians are pushing back because they don’t want to lose another set of ‘Primes’.

Kiloshulker is the leader of a small-time mining/repair crew and is well known for overworking.

A ‘solar cycle’ for a cybertronian is the amount of time they have been awake, a ‘lunar cycle’ is the time that they are asleep (since humans sleep/remain awake during the night/day, calling a day a ‘solar cycle’ and a night a ‘lunar cycle’ was not difficult for the cybertronians).

Earth is off-limits as a trade partner due to the many years of destruction, deceit, betrayal, etc., that has taken place on it.

Valma prefers to keep her title as planet ruler hidden to newcomers to Cybertron, and would rather people referred to her by her first name as opposed to her last- she doesn’t like being reminded of her power.

While she doesn’t necessarily agree to being reminded of her power/status, Valma does exercise it in situations where it needs to be.

Valma is notorious for mixing up Earth terminology and Cybertron terminology, especially when tired (will start to call her servos hands, calls femmes women, etc.).

Cybertronians can stay up indefinitely if they wish, but will get more sloppy until they finally fall into recharge.

Since Valma was initially an organic, her organic mind cannot remain at decent functionality after twenty-four hours of straight consciousness. Her record for remaining awake is eighty-one (she was forced into recharge after screaming something about blood pirates).

The planet core has had times where it has pulsed with energy (nearly blew out a power grid in the process).

Tunnel C-82 is well known for being unstable and easily collapsing (Valma and Optimus have had to rescue more than one unlucky mining team from there- mostly Kiloshulker and his crew).

Despite the name ‘mining team’, mining teams are actually responsible for keeping an eye on the core. They got their names because over half the time, they have to 'mine’ through collapsed pipes in tunnels in order to get to the core.

Organics from alternate dimensions have a differing biology plot device that allows them to breathe/survive while on Cybertron.

Valma’s organic mind is so used to breathing that she will subconsciously breathe in nothing/exhale nothing (so her chest rises and falls despite there being no need).

... Mate I don’t even know how many facts that was... Anyway. Moving on with my life, see ya’ll around.

Just got back the second part to the first chapter of my Optima comic! Link to the first part is here, and the artist is ErikaGSkerzz. The third (and final) part of this chapter will be up next month. 💞 A big thank you to everyone who's shown support for this! I didn't expect it to blow up like it did, and I'm happy to know so many people love it. 💖

EDIT: The third part is here!

[unlikelypandahologram]

So I've been working on-and-off on a comic since February that started as "What if Transformers had an equivalent to Marvel's Earth-3490", and this was the result. Working title is "Optima Prime"; the basic synopsis is that Optimus is female and the war doesn't happen because she ends up accidentally dating resident virgin nerd loser Megatron who's never spoken to a woman in his life before LMAOOOO RIP

Anyway, these are the first eight pages I commissioned! Script by me, art by ErikaGSkerzz. I wrote the whole first chapter and I have five in total planned; if anyone wants to read the script for what happens next, DM me and I'll send you the Google Doc link.

(If you don't get the last page, the point is that Megatron's being sarcastic about asking her out and she thought he was being serious, lol)

EDIT: The second and third parts to this are here and here!

me, looking at the sketch WIPs for the final pages of the first chapter of the optima comic in my emails and LOSING MY MIND thinking about what they're going to look like in full inks and colors in a week:

#WOAH I LOVE THIS#optima prime my beloved 💕#i love her design…such simple yet effective design choices to show she’s a femme without just blatantly oversexualizing her#love genderswap AUs where the character actually acts like and are treated the same as their OG counterpart#instead of being wildly OOC#she’s gentle and kind and maybe takes things a little too literal i love that for her#megatron how i envy you…#transformers#megop#optimus prime#megatron#optima prime comic#i just know she has the loveliest voice

First of all, thank you so much for these amazing tags, lol. I created the female Optimus design and the artist did a great job of rendering it here, so I'm really happy that you (and so many other people) like it! And yes, most of the point of this project is to have a female Optimus who's true to canon and isn't creepily sexualized (and, most importantly, turns into a big badass truck like canon Prime and not some dainty motorcycle unlike some other genderswapped Optimus designs I've seen...).

Second, it's funny you should bring up voices because I do actually have a voice claim in mind for Optima, kind of. I haven't watched anything My Little Pony-related in over a decade, but I imagine she'd sound like Nicole Oliver's Princess Celestia voice. Admittedly I can't find a lot of good clips that focus on her lines, but here's one that I think gets it across the best.
