Auto-avatar

This article is about the external bodies of the Alternity. For the external bodies of the Cybertronians of the planet Master, see Transtector.

Auto-avatars are a technology in the Alternity portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

Auto-avatars are mechanical constructs used as vessels to contain the higher-dimensional essence of a being of the Alternity species. They are used to provide a means for the species to interact with material worlds of various universal streams. Their physical capabilities are comparable to the denizens of Cybertron, having both a alternate mode and a robot mode, though several technological advancements have been worked into their structures. Most auto-avatars utilize an alternate mode physically similar to an Earth sports car, due to the ease of integrating such forms with the dimension-traveling engines known as Timaeus drives. Within each auto-avatar is a hyper-frame composed of the rare multidmensional material Alternium, serving to link the construct to the essence of the being controlling it.
