- The TransTech are a highly-evolved race of Transformers in TransTech continuity.
TransTechs, short for Transcendent Technomorphs, are better than you. Hailing from a Cybertron that has never known the scourge of war, this ancient sub-race of Transformers has watched over the multiverse for untold eons, welcoming travelers from other dimensions through their emissary city of Axiom Nexus. They have developed their bodies, technology, and civilization to a highly evolved state, far beyond that of the war-wracked Transformers who typically pass through Axiom Nexus's gates.
They might not be as nice as they seem. Some of them are, at the very least, a bit... how shall we say... morally ambiguous.
Fiction
Though there were ever-present planet-wide crises, extradimensional threats, and debilitating political corruption, [1] the TransTechs' Cybertron never sank to the level of war. As such, their society was able to achieve unimaginable feats in technology and scientific discovery. However, many of these advancements were made possible by the amoral persistence of Shockwave and his master, Jhiaxus, not to mention a secret government partnership with the Liege Maximo.[2]
At some point in time, the TransTechs' universe confronted the Unicron Phenomenon, and they were successful in diverting it. Withered Hope
However, one bot sought to bring Cybertron into a new Golden Age, free of corruption and cynicism. This bot, an archivist named Optimus, inspired the masses with his speeches and soon attracted the attention of a young military professional named Megatron. A partnership formed, and together, the two rose through the ranks of their respective career paths, military and political, until they uncovered Sentinel Prime's scandalous ties with the Liege Maximo. After a dramatic, violent battle with the Liege Maximo itself [3], much of the government was caught in this controversy, and as a result, few were left standing when the legal proceedings ended. But from the ruins of this event rose Megatron and Optimus, with the former proving himself in battle and the latter proving worthy of becoming the new Prime.
Thanks to Optimus Prime's strong moral guidance and the strength of his political convictions, Cybertron did enter a new Golden Age. It was not a complete fresh start, however. Though Megatron arrested Shockwave as a war criminal, he was able to convince the High Senate to allow the scientist to continue doing experiments, though under Megatron's guidance. In addition, Starscream miraculously emerged unscathed from the Maximo incident, despite his heavy involvement. [4]
As stewards of the multiversal hub city Axiom Nexus and its massive and unruly "outworlder" population, the TransTechs have few dull moments. Officer Flareup was involved in an incident at Shockwave's lab with some illegal outworlders from the Malgus universe cluster, but all agreed never to speak of it again. Bee in the City Two outworlders from the Primax cluster were framed for the murder of a high-profile rebel group, but the real perpetrators were revealed to be stooges for a local gangster. Gone Too Far The arrival of six dimensional travelers from an unknown cluster resulted in the incarceration of General Demolishor of the military police. Withered Hope A harrowing incident that exchanged the Sparks of RoboCo CEO Bulletbike and a mere "lowtech" resulted in dozens dead and a government frightened by the possibility of undetectable Spark-swapping technology. I, Lowtech
However, most noteworthy event was the abduction by Megatron and Shockwave of a lowtech who was rescued by a rebel band led by Alpha Trion. The band stormed the Transwarp Complex, murdered several TransTechs, dismantled Shockwave, and escaped with the abductee through a dimensional gate. Transcendent It is believed that this group had something to do with the Bulletbike incident.
