11	Transformers Universe RP was a roleplaying forum created in the forums of the upcoming MultiplayerOnlineBattleArena created by Creator/JagexGamesStudio, VideoGame/TransformersUniverse. The storyline was a mixture of an AlternateUniverseFic, {{Continuation}}, and ElsewhereFic taking place between and after the events of the second and third seasons of the ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime'' continuity.

13	Focusing on the adventures of the OriginalCharacter Autobots and the OriginalCharacter Decepticons led by [[BigBad Megatron]], it follows the never-ending battle between the two factions while having some SliceOfLife moments, and plenty of romance. It was accused of being more like a soap opera than an actual battle.

15	While the original site was shut down late January 2015, [[http://transformersgalaxyrp.freeforums.net a new rebooted version called Transformers Galaxy'' features re-imagined versions of the characters created in the original.]]
16	----
17	!! This Roleplaying forum provide examples of:
18	* AliensSpeakingEnglish: Most of the Transformers speak some form of English, with some characters speaking a totally language altogether or don't speak at all. Although, [[JustifiedTrope seeing as this is a text RP with mostly English-speaking users]], it's pretty much a given.
19	* AnyoneCanDie: ZigZaggingTrope. [[JustifiedTrope Due to the natures of Text RP rules,]] it is somewhat of a rare occasion for anyone to [[DeathIsCheap legitimately]] die without going in stasis lock, despite the fact that the universe implies such an atmosphere and the handful of deaths. Shadowstrike broke the record, with the highest number of people asking him to help them kill their characters.
20	%%* BigBad: Megatron
21	%%* BigGood: Indigo Prime
22	%%* CerebusRollercoaster
23	* ConvenientMiscarriage: Autobot Defector Hotwire had ''two'' miscarriages - one of them at the exact same time as Feenixfire was giving birth. The player casually commented that "Miscarriages combine all the drama of being pregnant and the angst of losing a loved one, with none of the inconveniences of having a baby or losing an important RP character." Some role-players accused her of being a 'walking coathanger'.
24	%%* DarkerAndEdgier: Even more so than the regular ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime'' series at times.
25	* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Back in the forums humble beginnings of December 2012, there was plenty of oddball plots and characters including Dark Energon infused Decepticons, Orange and Black Energon, double agents, possessed bots, and the list goes on.
26	%%* ElementalPowers: A handful of Autobots and Decepticons had such abilities. Most notably Feenixfire, Seabell, and ShadowStrike.
27	* ElsewhereFic: As oppose to taking place in ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime'' 's main setting of the fictional Jasper, Nevada, the main Autobot team, Team Indigo, settles in The Rocky Mountains.
28	%%* FaceHeelTurn: Several times.
29	* HeelFaceTurn: There were two famous turns - the blind Decepticon medic Hotwire after being scapegoated in a KangarooCourt of being responsible for the escape of Gearchange, while Decepticon mercenary Breech Loader, bitter at the DisproportionateRetribution of losing her T-Cog after an argument, claimed sanctuary with the Autobots to tick the Decepticons off.
30	* KangarooCourt: After Gearchange escaped, the main members of the Decepticons blamed Decepticon Hotwire and threw her in prison despite being the best and hardest-working doctor on the ship.
31	* LoveRedeems: Hotwire was converted into an Autobot by Round-Up. On the flip side, after Breech Loader defected into an Autobot, she brought boyfriend Road Rage along with her.
32	* PregnantBadass: Feenixfire got pregnant multiple times and kept fighting all the time.
33	* ReallyGetsAround: Hotwire and Breech Loader (played by the same person) were infamous for 'scouting around' - ie, flirting with all the males just to find somebody who was willing to take that angle in roleplay.
34	%%* RidiculouslyHumanRobots: A staple for anything Transformers.
35	%%* RougeAnglesOfSatin
36	%%* ScienceFictionWritersHaveNoSenseOfScale
37	* SuperReflexes: The most famous event was when Hotwire fled the Decepticons. Almost every Decepticon and Autobot on the board was shooting at her as she fled through the forest, and she dodged every attack while not returning fire. Among the members, if somebody pulled off too many dodges, it became known as the "Hotwire Dodge"
38	* TransformingMecha: Considering this is a roleplay taking place in ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'' universe, it is a given that the majority of characters transforms into some kind of vehicle/animal/appliance/base/mobile fortress.
