Ahshdhdj thank you for the explanation post! However there are some characters I don't recognize, those being Solduron, Apex Ginrai, Physis, and Logos Prime. Also, how did Heatwave make the Hydrafire Blasters? Isn't he still a toddler?
for the most part, the various Knights of Cybertron who made these relics aren't, in fact, super important, outside of a meta sense of recognizing another canon name peppered into SNAP lore. they're looooong dead historical figures that have little influence over what's going on today, outside of a possible ghost left inside their relics
Solduron was a set of armor invented by Primacron, an alien POW back during the God War. Apex Ginrai was the first Titanmaster, and essentially my version of the canon human Ginrai. Physis... now Physis is some meta stuff, but essentially all you need to know is it was a moth. a very meta moth, much like another moth, perhaps? and then Logos is one of the Thirteen original Primes in this canon, a trinemate of Quintus and Vector. you can see him being a dumb teen over at @ask-the-firstforged which i have NOT abandoned i simply do not have the time to draw and haven't for a good while
Heatwave the ancient powerful Knight just happens to share a name with bitty baby Heatwave Pax! repeated/shared names are fairly common in this universe. kind of like how it only took one Alexander the Great for the name to be common across multiple cultures even thousands of years later, there's a good number of folks with historical, traditional, or religious names. there's plenty of Megatrons/other variants of Megatronus-es, there's been several Optimuses who became Primes throughout history, and Servo is the most common religious name as a traditional term for the Guiding Hand. heck, some folks are named after the Knights' relics, like Star Saber the teacher, or Terminus the junker, or even a young Knight named Terminus millions of years ago who was the last to use an uncorrupted Terminus Blade, his namesake, before he was slain and the relic stolen
