Functionism

From MediaWiki
(Redirected from Caste system)
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Cybertronians are a naturally adaptable race, but this has not always been the case. Indeed, several ancient Transformer governments sought to quash this kind of individualism under a caste system, sometimes known as functionism or functionalism; although details vary across continuity, this social system seeks to organize Cybertronian and their vocations by their natural alternate mode. Under this system, a Transformer with a bulldozer alternate mode can only perform a construction job, while a Transformer who turns into a microscope might only become a scientist.

But although this system of government sounds logical, this kind of rigidity only has a stifling effect on Transformer civilization. More ominously, this kind of stagnation leads to simmering unrest, growing tension, and the eventual ascent of groups who seek to tear down the system at any cost... groups like the Decepticons.

Cybertron had been dominated by a loose-knit system of guilds and castes for millennia, but in the twilight of Cybertron's Golden Age, the first generals of the High Council's militias at Fort Scyk conceived the notion of formalizing these social groupings into a rigidly defined government. Sentinel Prime was a major proponent of the system, and played a large part in its adoption, enforcing it as an absolute, mandatory social authority. Under this system, 'bots that emerged from the Well of All Sparks were harvested, taught to transform, and then immediately put to work based on the nature of their alternate mode.

Overseen by the Guilds of Cybertron, the institution of the caste system greatly flattened the process by which new Transformers joined society; while once they had to independently navigate their way through the Underworld to reach the surface, by the modern era they were simply harvested from the Well of All Sparks, taught to assume their most natural alternate mode, and immediately assigned to a job that they would carry out for the rest of their lives. High-ranking castes include those 'bots who shouldered Cybertron's scientific, artistic, and governmental responsibilities; construction workers, civil engineers, data specialists, cultural investigators and programmers constituted the mid-ranking castes, and miners, haulers, and manual laborers made up the lowest castes.

Though its rigid structure was intended to preserve Cybertronian society, its repressive force was a large factor in the social decay and unrest that lead to the formation of the Decepticons and the start of the Great War. Exodus

The Covenant of Primus

[edit]

The caste system has its roots in the Quintessons, who artificially accelerated the social and cultural development of Cybertron during the Age of Wrath. Under the pretense of "form and function", the aliens reorganized the primitive planet's social structures and grouped Cybertronians together into working collectives. Their malicious presence somehow interfered with the Well of All Sparks, and as a result of their presence newborn Transformers emerged into the world without names. The Quintessons claimed that this was for the best, as these new Transformers would not yearn for anything out of life.

After the apocalyptic Rust Plague that ended Cybertron's golden age, the impoverished Cybertronian government, without any clear means of generating more energon, re-entrenched the old Quintesson government systems and began a system of rationing energon. New Cybertronians returned to being born without names; investigation revealed that these new 'bots had not found anything they wanted to be. Indeed, Senator Soundwave theorized that the dull, stifling conditions of Cybertron were accelerating the "devolution" of their once-vibrant species into a race of mindless automatons.

The seeds of functionism were planted upon the conclusion of the First Cybertronian Civil War ten million years ago, when Prima's surviving lieutenant Nova Major ended the war and, with the blessing of the last of the Thirteen, Alpha Trion, took on the mantle of Prime to become sole leader of Cybertron. When Onyx Prime's surviving servant Rhinox pondered what would become of him and his beast-form brethren, Nova explained that he envisioned a unified Cybertronian society where everyone would be "in their place". Alpha Trion would later claim that this did not sound sinister at the time. The Crucible

By the end of the Golden Age and the disappearance of the first Ark six million years ago, Functionism grew to become the dominant social system on Cybertron, Before & After organized under the Grand Cybertronian Taxonomy that classified all known Cybertronian bodytypes and potential alternate modes. At Close of Day Although the Senate handled the day-to-day realities of life on Cybertron, the religiously-motivated Functionist Council ensured that all Cybertronians adhered to their rigidly preordained classes as a way of honoring Adaptus, god of transformation. Births, Deaths, and Interventions Notable classes include the scientific class, who transformed into laboratory equipment, Shadowplay, Part 1: Post Hoc the manual class of miners and dockworkers, Births, Deaths, and Interventions and the construction class of bulldozers and construction machinery. A World Misplaced

A Cybertronian's status was determined not only by the utility of their alternate mode, but also its scarcity: the more unique an alt-mode was, the higher a Cybertronian could climb in society, a social custom known as ratioism. Before & After A Cybertronian with a generalized alternate mode, such as a truck, enjoyed a wider range of career choices—law enforcement, manual labor, data archival, or science—than a Transformer with a specialized shape. Post Some shapes, such as memory sticks, were so widespread that the Cybertronians who sported them were dubbed the "disposable class" and treated as little more than mindless slaves. Before & After The only way out was to qualify for the intellectual class Post Hoc or qualify for "alt-mode exemption" by performing a notable task like finding a Point One Percenter spark. Remembrance Day

It soon became apparent that not all Cybertronians fit cleanly into the strict categories imposed by the Grand Cybertronian Taxonomy. Transformers with unusual powers that did not match their alternate mode were reclassified as "outliers" and persecuted for it. An Intimate Beheading Transformers with beast modes and non-humanoid robot modes were treated as little more than animals; Soundwaves the psychiatrist Rung posed a unique problem to the Council, as nobody could figure out what his alt-mode was actually for. The Council eventually sidestepped this problem by classifying him as a member of the "ornament class". Little Victories The rise of the Militant Monoform Movement and its tradition of removing its members' transformation cogs may have been a direct response to the dictates of functionism, Shadowplay, Part 1: Post Hoc while the Decepticons began as an explicitly anti-functionist movement and found traction among individuals who felt overlooked by the system. Shadowplay, Part 1: Post Hoc What It's Really Like

Under unclear circumstances, the Functionist Council fell out of prominence, and further legislation during the reign of Nominus Prime resulted in a general relaxing of laws regarding Functionism. Chaos Theory Part 1 Functionist hardliners still existed, such as in the town of Petrex where complaining about one's alt-mode was punishable by prison. Elsewhere on Cybertron, though, it was acceptable to defy Adaptus and undergo full-body retrofitting to change alt-modes permanently... provided you had enough credits. For a more modest fee, Relinquishment Clinics offered "body tourism", using sparkswap technology to let Cybertronians temporarily try out a different alt-modes from a "donor". Post Hoc

Resentment and prejudice against the "lower classes" remained baked into the attitudes of many Cybertronians, however, and played a major role in the rise of the Decepticons. It's probably not a coincidence that when the Senate killed two Decepticons so they could 'solve' the murder of Senator Sherma, the killers were framed as pro-Functionists. Patternism Later, Orion Pax came to the mistaken but not unreasonable conclusion that the Senate was trying to exterminate an entire hot spot so it couldn't be used as evidence of divine functionism. All Our Parlous Yesterdays By Zeta Prime's era, members of the disposable class had received more rights and a legal acknowledgement of personhood thanks to the writings of noted thinker Dominus Ambus. Before & After

The subsequent outbreak of the Great War and the collapse of Cybertronian government led to the end of functionism, although remnants of the movement survived into the present day. By the end of the war, "Neo-Functionists" were active on The Big Conversation, a Decepticon social networking site, and trolled anyone who revealed details of their alt-mode. Nothing Will Ever Be the Same Again!

The Functionist Universe
[edit]

In an alternate timeline, the Functionist Council had gone to war against the Senate A World Misplaced and conquered Cybertron: the intellectual class outlawed, disposable class unable to talk to their betters, Functionary enforcers on every corner, and obsolescence chips planted in everyone's head so that when their theoconomists agreed an alt-mode had no further use, the Council could issue a "mass recall". The laser pointers, the Lunabots, and the data slugs (the theoconomists ruled they had a purpose but they were a threat to the Council's rule) were among those exterminated. In this timeline it was still possible, at least in the past, to be declared alt-mode exempt The Custom-Made Now but bots such as Sweep were more likely to be declared "alt-mode exalted", and venerated for their actions - and told to get back to work. Predestination: An Expert's Guide

When Functionist Council member Six-of-Twelve began receiving mysterious "visions", he believed them to be the word of Primus. In preparation for a war he believed was coming, Six-of-Twelve began violating the core ideals of functionism, preparing for the conflict by transplanting the Sparks of Cybertronians into combat-ready bodies. This blasphemy compelled Nine-of-Twelve to defect and join the Anti-Vocationist League. A World Misplaced

Beast Wars: Uprising

[edit]

Under the oppressive rule of the Builders, the Maximals and Predacons of post-war Cybertron lived in a tiered class system, rated from A to at least a J, with amount of energon rations portioned out dependent on a 'bots respective class. A Class D proto-former, for example, would require five days of labor simply to acquire a single day's full ration of energon. Winners of the Games were granted exemption from any function up to a Class J. Lio Convoy lived as a Class A, who were regarded by less fortunate mechs as foppish layabouts, though he was no more exempt from endless security checks and demands of his Personal Registration Of Official Function (or P.R.O.O.F.) from Builder guards.

Not surprisingly, Ser-Ket and Break regarded Cybertronian society as quasi-functionist. Head Games Derailment

Transformers Roleplaying Game

[edit]

Before the Great War, Cybertronian society was organized according to the tenets of functionalism, where Cybertronians could only take jobs based on the purpose of their alternate modes. Scientists transformed into scientific equipment, warriors fought in ritualized gladiator games, and fliers like Jetfire defended the skies. Megatron and his Decepticons rebelled against this philosophy, which sparked the Great War between them and the Autobots. By the present day, functionalism was generally regarded as outdated.

Notes

[edit]
  • As originally introduced in IDW's 2008 comic Megatron Origin, the social inequality on Cybertron was not specifically tied to alternate mode. This idea would only be introduced in the 2010 novel Transformers: Exodus (part of the Aligned continuity family), which adapted Megatron's origin from the IDW series outward, establishing that Cybertron operated under a prejudiced caste system that locked Transformers into certain jobs and social roles based on their alt mode. This concept then crossed back over into IDW's comics the following year, with 2011's Transformers #22, eventually being given the name "Functionism" in 2012's More than Meets the Eye.
