History Fanfic / TransformersAlterVerse

* CuteShotaroBoy: Most of the male characters in this story when they were young in the past. Stephen, [[spoiler: Divine]], Victor and Sam are good examples.

** Razorsnip of the Decepticons, Skybyte's sister and Sketchfan's OriginalCharacter in this Fan Fiction, collects {{Bleach}} Anime and Manga.

* ImprobableAge: [[PlayingWithATrope Played With.]] The Humanicons are teenagers at best when taken to fight for the Decepticons. So are some of the Autobot Alliance members. [[spoiler: The Seraphims' military force trains their soldiers from young, and they are literally CareerKillers in their own right.]]

* ColourCodedForYourConvenience: The most basic example is that Decepticons tend to have red optics, while Autobots have blue optics. However, exceptions exist among the Transformers.
** The Decepticons love dull colours like grey, black and purple, while the Autobots love to use brighter colours like red, blue and yellow.

** Some of the Autobots can combine with each other, such as Optimus with Jetfire, Optimus with Overload, Optimus and Ultra Magnus (design based from TransformersRobotsInDisguise), Optimus with his various sub-commanders due to the [[spoiler: Spark of Combination he has received]] from Primus.

* DidNotDoTheResearch: Played with. The creators of this Fan Fiction are Transformers Fans, and one of them was a Transformer Comic book collector, and hence changes sometimes might be somewhat necessary to stay true to the ''{{Transformers}}'' Universe.

* JustAMachine: Brutally averted as the Transfomers are sentient alien robot lifeforms from the planet of Cybertron.

Every ''{{Transformers}}'' fan has his or her way of intepreting their own version of the Transformers Universe, and this Fan Fiction is one of the many takes on that itself. An AlternateUniverse[=/=]AdaptationDistillation drawing primarily from the TransformersGenerationOne and the [[Film/{{Transformers}} (Film) Transformers]] with its sequels, but with some massive changes in its storyline, and then including a peppering (and sprinkling) of influences from many other '''Transformers Universes''' and Series. In actual fact, Transformers Alter Verse is meant to take all those stories, put them all in a blender, throw in some anime and western cartoon influences, and create some CrowningMomentOfAwesome(s) for itself as a ''{{Transformers}}'' Fan Fiction in its own right. Also at the same time, this Fan Fiction tries to keep true to the ''{{Transformers}}'' Universe on a cohesive whole as much as possible, but deviates from some of the major storyline in the movie and cartoon series due to the large amounts of '''Transformers''' and Human Own Characters (OriginalCharacter [s]) introduced in the entire story.

This Transformers Fan Fiction story is started back on March 8, year 2008 by a deviantart artist known as Taiya001 [[http://www.taiya001.deviantart.com link here]] , and as of 2010, has approximately 40 plus chapters worth of stories and several drabbles that expands on the characters on each different faction, their thoughts and motivations behind the Great War, and bridge the gaps during the time skips between the chapters. The series is currently ongoing, but due to RealLife problems and day-to-day business, updates are few and inbetween. There are currently three major story arcs, and each consists of three chapters each, albeit like a trilogy, and they all have been posted. The entire series so far, can be viewed at Taiya001's deviantart homepage [[http://taiya001.deviantart.com/journal/25603986/ here]] , and the Drabble stories and some of the OriginalCharacter(s) can be found here on Victortky's deviantart homepage [[http://victortky.deviantart.com/gallery/12609971 here]]

When the Great War came to Earth, things took a drastic change. Megatron and the Decepticons require a Human factor in their plans to reacquire the Allspark, and this led to the creation of the Humanicons. (Human Partners of the Decepticons) Instead of the typical Transformer Human Characters like Sam Witwicky or Sparkplug, the Allspark was thrusted into the hands of a normal everyday schoolgirl known as Taiya Dalton. She formed a romantic relationship with Blackout of the Decepticons and later became the Head Commander of the afromentioned Humanicons. Megatron ordered Shockwave and Arkeville to create a Human Task Force to aid them in their conquest of Earth, with Taiya and Stephen Dalton being the first in row to become Humanicons. The Autobots, on the other hand, have also made their own human allies, and those special Humans have helped them come to terms with what the Autobots have done before and during the Great War.

Things took a drastic turn for the worst, when mysterious organisations are formed on Earth itself, uneasy alliances between enemies were made, and secret plans that had been created for the purpose of destruction were set into motion. Humanity was factured, and new factions rose from the ashes of the new world. With armies of both good and evil assembled and preparing for the inevitable war, and all the factions were gearing up for conflict, with all the players assembled and at the ready. The board is set and the pieces were ready to make their moves. The deadly game was on, but who will win in this Great War that has consumed whole worlds across the universe?

This story is named by its creators by the term TFAV as its acroyms to differentiate itself from the rest of the ''{{Transformers}}'' Fan Fictions. Please do read the story chapters in the links provided above, and here is a shortened yet informative version of what has happened so far in the Transformers Alter Verse story until today. '''SPOILERS GALORE, read at own risk''' [[http://victortky.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2h5ciq TFAV, the story so far]].

This Transformers Fann Fiction is currently worked upon by seven deviants (known as the magnificent 7), and they are Taiya001 [[http://www.taiya001.deviantart.com link here]], Sketchfan [[http://www.sketchfan.deviantart.com link here]], Victortky [[http://www.victortky.deviantart.com link here]], slyer0, Dark Lord Jadow, Dragonjg and Bonitaprime. The first three are the main writers, while the other four have just recently joined in. Any interested parties please notify the first three deviants on their respective pages.

** [[spoiler: Divine the Seraphim's dual swords can slice through any type of enemy armour like hot knife through butter, and can also damage the Fallen minions due to its AppliedPhlebotinum abilities.]]

** [[spoiler: the seraphims with their transformable mobile suits also count too.]]
** The humans, on their F-22 raptors and various gunships, is worth a mention. [[spoiler: expecially the GI JOES, NEST and FSOF.]]

* ActionSurvivor: Many of the main OriginalCharacter(s) have survived battles and conlficts that would have killed lesser characters, and they are doing a pretty good job at it. (so far) Applies to the Transformers too during their various battles.

** Starscream was able to take on many Autobot Seekers and win, as well as decimating many [[spoiler: Seraphim ships]] single-handedly alone. Playing SteppingStonesInTheSky with Human F-22 Raptors in the sky in the Battle of Mission City counts too. Truth be told, he was one of the major commanders of Cybertronians seeker fleet before he joined the Decepticons.

* AlienAmongUs: The Transformers had been hiding among the humans on Earth for a long time before their relevation in the modern years. The earlier Transformers have came to Earth in the distant past (about 17,000 BC) to build the solar harvester in plain sight of Earth's inhabitants, and the ancestors of humanity were little more than living in caves at that time.
* AlienInvasion: There are some individuals and organisations among the humans on Earth believe that the Transformers are planning a full scale invasion of Earth. Unfortunately, they aren't very far off from the truth. Hence they have taken steps to ensure that this does not happen...by any means necessary. [[SubvertedTrope Subverted, however,]] in that the Autobots have no real reason to invade and the Decepticons either wanted to turn Earth into part of the Decepticon Empire or would rather KillAllHumans. The Decepticons Modus Operandi is to destabilise planetary government, escalate tensions, and then watch the race wiped itself out in global conflicts before getting their hands on the resources of the planet itself.
* AliensSpeakingEnglish: The Transformers learned English from the world wide web when they arrived on Earth, hence their ability to speak surprisingly good English when they inititated first contact with the humans. However, their manners and tone will vary from Autobot to Decepticon based on their specific preferences.
* AllThereInTheManual: Supplemental materials that expands on the OriginalCharacter(s) background and the history of the cybertronians, as well as relationships between the OriginalCharacter(s), can be found in side stories written by Taiya001 and Victortky. The Transformers Alter Verse Drabbles was created to address this problem. Extra information like what happened on the Autobot Alliance front (as the story focuses more on the Decepticons and their Humanicons) could be seen in these drabbles to know what happened to the other heroes and heroines, their relationships with the Autobots, [[spoiler: how Victor created his company, how the FSOF was created, how the secret organisation named Section 56 formed, and how the Autobots face political and military fallout with some human nations...etc]]

** Many Transformers characters have all or most of their characterisation provided in datatrack profiles written by the creators themselves.

* AncientAstronauts: Two cases actually: One case is that the primes and a large group of cybertronians came to Earth to build the solar harvester in the distant past. Another case is that the Ark and the Nemsis crashed on Earth for another long period of time before the Transformers from both sides awakened. [[PlayingWithATrope Kind of played with]] as the cybertronians influenced the Egyptians to worship the solar harvester as a gift from their gods in the Egyptian religions, which rises some eyebrows when revealed.

* AppliedPhlebotinum: Energon, the various Cybertronian artifacts, Sari's Key, and [[spoiler: Victor's allspark charged Keycard]], Mini-cons all count as this.

* AtArmsLength: Tends to happen with the humanicons and the members of the Autobot Alliance for humour purposes.

* AssKickingPose: Each major character, no matter human or cybertronian [[spoiler: or seraphim]], has one. This stance is often taken before dishing out major terrible damage to the villans.

* AttackDrone: The Predator (and many other aerial) drones utilised by Humanity counts, the Decepticons also have point defense drones that can attack when necessary, and the Autobots have these drones guarding the interior of Autobot City and Keys Tech Corporation.

* AxCrazy: Many of the Villans are this in the Fan Fiction. Some are moreso than others. Bonus points if you can guess who.

** Done by Vector Prime and Alpha Trion in the distant past, against the Fallen and his minions when the latter rebelled against Primus. [[spoiler: Alpha Trion has the sword of Primus in this continuity, and can combine wth Vector Prime.]]

** Ironhide and Armourhide were considered this as well, as they were seasoned veterans and weapon specialists during the battles on Cybertron, and Ironhide carries enough weapons to make him a one walking robot battalion. Armourhide, the younger brother, was also one due to him able to lift things many times his size and not breaking a sweat. He was also a master when it comes to smashing scrapmetal out of Eradicons.

* RefugeInCool: Pretty much describes this Fan Fiction...and the Transformers too.

Every ''{{Transformers}}'' fan has his or her way of intepreting their own version of the Transformers Universe, and this Fan Fiction is one of the many takes on that itself. An AlternateUniverse[=/=]AdaptationDistillation drawing primarily from the TransformersGenerationOne and the [[Film/{{Transformers}} (Film) Transformers]] with its sequels, but with some massive changes in its storyline, and then including a peppering (and sprinkling) of influences from many other '''Transformers Universes''' and Series.

[[CaptainObvious Of course]], YourMileageMayVary on the story and characters themselves too.

When the Great War came to Earth, things took a drastic change. Megatron and the Decepticons require a Human factor in their plans to reacquire the Allspark, and this led to the creation of the Humanicons. (Human Partners of the Decepticons) Instead of the typical Transformer Human Characters like Sam Witwicky or Sparkplug, the Allspark was thrusted into the hands of a normal everyday schoolgirl known as Taiya Dalton. She formed a romantic relationship with Blackout of the Decepticons (YourMileageMayVary) and later became the Head Commander of the afromentioned Humanicons. Megatron ordered Shockwave and Arkeville to create a Human Task Force to aid them in their conquest of Earth, with Taiya and Stephen Dalton being the first in row to become Humanicons. The Autobots, on the other hand, have also made their own human allies, and those special Humans have helped them come to terms with what the Autobots have done before and during the Great War.

* BlackAndGreyMorality: [[PlayingWithATrope Played With.]] There are characters who are in the black region, and there are characters who are in the grey region, and there are those who tread the thin line in-between good and evil. (YourMileageMayVary after reading the story. Refer to [[Characters/TransformersAlterVerse Character Sheet]] for more details.)

* BeyondTheImpossible: '''HAPPENS A LOT''' during the GrandFinale.
** [[spoiler: In the Final Battle. Everyone from all factions team up to defeat [[EldritchAbomination Unicron]] and the Fallen with their armies of Darkness alongside Vector Prime, and Primus. This quickly turns into a massive space battle which saw our assembled team of heroes and heroines fly off to fight the '''mega-dimensional galactic being''' [[BigBad Unicron]] and his QuirkyMinibossSquad up in space, with Primus along with them in spirit. And it's ''[[CrowningMomentOfAwesome Awesome]]'' ]]

* IGotBetter: Taiya Dalton, and many of the Humanicons. [[spoiler: But Taiya mostly, as she was the Fallen of the Earth. She has been tortured mentally and physically by the Fallen, and she has to fight Unicron alone at first.]]
** And many of the other characters of many factions.

* IncurableCoughOfDeath: The Autobots, when infected with scraplets or cosmic rust. [[IGotBetter They got better though.]]

!!This story will contain examples of:

* TheBumblebee: The TropeNamer Bumblebee appears, but he's a grizzly veteran of the war and hence was more radical and violent than usual, and hence he did not quite help out on the public relations with the Autobots. In terms of fostering human-Cybertronian relations, Jazz (Optimus's second-in-command) helps out more than Bumblebee.

* CrossingTheStreams: [[PlayingWithATrope Played With.]] Vector Prime can manipulate time as part of his abilities, but the kicker is that he will die if he uses too much of his powers. Alpha Trion can distantly communicate with Primus, but it drains his energon reserves very quickly.

* TheBeautifulPeople: [[spoiler: The Seraphims play this Trope to large amounts of exaggeration, especially with their royalty castes.]]

* CuteKidsAndRobots: The Humanicons and their Decepticon owners. The Autobot Alliance members and their human allies.

* [[IDidntMeanToTurnYouOn I Didn't Mean To Turn You On]]: [[PlayingWithATrope Played With.]] Happens from time to time among the cast. Mostly results in Awkward situations. Moreso Less so (depending on the creators themselves) for the major couples in this Fan Fiction, IfYouKnowWhatIMean.

* SexyDiscretionShot: Played straight with Victor and Zoe in their love moment. [[spoiler: Zoe gets deeply kissed by Victor (finally aware that she was Xeria's manifestation and he was Divine in human form), and she asks him to give her the "strength to protect and the courage to be with him till the end.", before burying herself into his arms. The flowers outside Zoe's home bloomed during their heart-to-heart sharing session, IfYouKnowWhatIMean.]]

* {{BFG}}: The Transformers of both Autobot and Decepticon have their own unique rifles or pistols, but some have {{BFG}} s that can easily make human guns look like peashooters. Optimus Prime has his trusty Ion Blaster, Megatron has his own unique Fusion Cannon, Jetfire has his dual barreled laser rifle, and Ironhide has his plasma blaster and rotatery Rocket Launcher. The Decepticons also have this among their ranks, especially among the Combaticons. A transformer worthy of mention is Trypticon (who is gigantic even compared to regular Transformers, as Omega Supreme is as big as him) [[spoiler: As it turns out, Trypticon himself '''is''' one. His altmode is a huge orbital satellite. A [[{{Understatement}} big]] KillSat. Later he became a City after scanning a different alternate mode when he came to Earth.]]

* BodyHorror: The Humanicons when getting their upgrades through Operations, and Project Armitage by Arkeville. (considered the greatest medical failure in Human History.) The various life-threatening operations mentioned in this Fan Fiction can be considered a major {{Understatement}} of this Trope most of the time.

* {{Jerkass}}: Melvin, the son of Mark Mc Alister. [[{{Understatement}} Major Understatement.]]

** We have also got [[EldritchAbomination Unicron]] who eats planets...who is damn dangerous. '''MAJOR {{Understatement}}'''

* LightsOffTheirEyes: When the Transformers of both Factions go offline or aka die.

* MusicForCourage: Probably the MostTriumphantExample for Cassandra and Vera.

** Soundwave's cassettes, such as Rumble, Frenzy, Laserbeak, Ravage...as well as Blaster's Steel Jaw, Ramhorn, Rewind, Eject also counts too, as they can take on other Transformers many times their size...and give them a run for their energon.
* AdaptationDecay: The Creators hope this will not happen to the Fan Fiction...
** But judging from the readers who read this Fan Fiction, '''[[YourMileageMayVary Your Mileage WILL vary.]]'''

* AccidentalInnuendo: The Cybertronians tend to use some of their own terms that may refer to some...human anatomy in a weird sense.
** Mostly played for laughs on the human characters in the Fan Fiction.

** Optimus and Megatron had a showdown once on Cybertron in the Battle of Iacon, but ended with a draw. MissedMomentOfAwesome!!

* AngstWhatAngst: Optimus Prime shows more emotion in this continuity for his fallen brethen, who has fought alongside him since the beginning of the Cybertronian Civil War as FireForgedFriends. [[spoiler: Divine of the Seraphims does so too with those who stood by his side and have fallen in battle.]]

** The entire CrazyAwesome Decepticon Army and the Humanicons.

** This Fan Fiction loves this Trope. This will Happen quite a lot of times, normally with a CrowningMomentOfAwesome or a DyingMomentofAwesome from the major characters and the supporting cast.

* CargoShip: [[PlayingWithATrope Played with.]] The creators themselves ship a few couples of their own. The Readers? awaiting their answer.

* CompleteMonster: Mark Mc Alister is one, along with his {{Jerkass}} son Melvin. They both crossed the MoralEventHorizon a long time ago since the start of the story. Even worse than them, and is a literal embodiment of this Trope, is the PlanetEater [[EldritchAbomination Unicron]].

* CrowningMomentOfAwesome: Has its own [[Awesome/TransformersAlterVerse Crowning Moment of Awesome]] page. Will be updated as the series go along.
* CrowningMusicOfAwesome: Each major character has their own theme songs which often plays as a ThemeMusicPowerUp or mood song. ''{{Transformers}}'' songs from the other continuities are also included as openings.

* DracoInLeatherPants: The creators hope this does not happen to the villians.

* FanNickname: [[PlayingWithATrope Played With.]] Will happen if more readers read this Fan Fiction.

* HighOctaneNightmareFuel: Whenever The Fallen appears, along with his minions. Or even worse, the appearance of [[EldritchAbomination Unicron.]]
** Has its own [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel/TransformersAlterVerse High Octane Nightmare Fuel]] page.

* InternetBackdraft: Depends on how the readers receive this Fan Fiction.

* MagnificentBastard: [[EldritchAbomination Unicron]] is this trope sometimes, and [[PhysicalGod Primus]] is also one.
** The Fallen has traits of this trope too, as he manipulated events that benefits him and his master the most.
** Mark Mc Alister is also one when he is TheStarscream to President Whitemore, even planning a coup to seize the White House. Melvin can be one at times, which is an '''{{Understatement}}'''.
** Victor Keys is the good inversion of this Trope, with TheChessmaster included.

* NightmareFuel: Anytime the Fallen appears, along with his QuirkyMinibossSquad and his undead minions. [[EldritchAbomination Unicron]] is the embodiment of this Trope.
** Has its own [[NightmareFuel/TransformersAlterVerse Nightmare Fuel]] page.

* OneTruePairing: The Creators themselves have their own OTP for themselves.
** [[spoiler: Taiya/Blackout]]
** [[spoiler: Victor/Zoe - which is actually Divine/Xeria.]]
** [[spoiler: Blair/Stephen]]
** ...and a few more to come...

* ProtectionFromEditors: Depending on the Creators' mood and feelings actually.

* TearJerker: Has its own [[TearJerker/TransformersAlterVerse Tearjerker]] page. Will be updated as the series go along.

* VillainDecay: The Creators also tend to avoid this for the Villians.
** Played to exaggerated proportions when [[spoiler: Megatron was defeated by Mark Mc Alister.]]

* TheWoobie: Many of the female Characters of Alter Verse. If you read about their fate, you would want to give them a hug.
** Especially Taiya Dalton.
** Zoe isn't too far from it though...

** Played to exaggerated proportions when [[spoiler: Megatron was defeated by Mark McAlister.]]

* CompleteMonster: Mark Mc Alister is one, along with his {{Jerkass}} Melvin. They both crossed the MoralEventHorizon a long time ago since the start of the story. Even worse than them, and is a literal embodiment of this Trope, is the PlanetEater [[EldritchAbomination Unicron]].

* PreMortemOneLiner: "Rest in specks of space dust scattered to the ends of the Universe." Delivered by [[spoiler: Divine before he opened fire on the Nemesis itself in the prequel.]]

* NukeEm: Happens when [[spoiler: the Humans found out that conventional weaponry can't harm the fallen's minions and his QurikyMinibossSquad. Also used against Unicron in the final battle.]]

** [[spoiler: In the Final Battle. Everyone from all factions team up to defeat [[EldritchAbomination Unicron]] and the Fallen with their armies of Darkness alongside Vector Prime, and Primus. This quickly turns into a massive space battle which saw our assembled team of heroes and heroines fly off to fight the '''mega-dimensional galactic being''' [[BigBad Unicron]] and his QurikyMinibossSquad up in space, with Primus along with them in spirit. And it's ''[[CrowningMomentOfAwesome Awesome]]'' ]]

** Optimus Prime [[spoiler: combined with Jetfire, Skyfire, Overload, Ultra Magnus and [[GatlingGood Gatling Guns Backpack]] ]] and [[spoiler: Divine Celestial Dagonair]] during the [[spoiler: Battle of Sera Prime against the Decepticons during the climax of the Expansion Wars.]]

** If you're a Decepticon Mook, and Optimus points his [[MoreDakka Ion Cannon]] at you, they'll need a shovel to pick up what's left of you.

* ChekhovsGunman: Vector Prime, Alpha Trion, Omega Supreme, Gigacron, and [[spoiler: Divine the Seraphim.]]

* {{Jerkass}}: Melvin, the son of Mark McAlister. [[{{Understatement}} Major Understatement.]]

** The [[TheDragon Dragon]] for Mark McAlister is his son Melvin actually, most of the time.
