Thus I drew Sora from a little Dragons Rising au of mine.

With the chain of command, this is pretty much every rank in The Last Autobots. certain ranks do have a medical equivalent and I'll give a character from the au as an example of someone in that rank as of their jump into the past.

At the top is Supreme Commander also known as the Autobot Leader. Naturally, there is only one example to put here, Novalis Prime.

Below that is the rank of Commander, the second in command and chief advisor to the Autobot Leader. Flamewarp holds this rank following the death of her mentor, Ultra Magnus.

Lieutenant is next and it has a few equivalent ranks including Chief Medical Officer, Wrecker Commander, Air Commander and Torchbearer Commander. Characters holding these ranks include Enigma, Wildshock, Ratchet, Thundercracker and Pyra Magna.

Below the above rank/ranks is General with its equivalent ranks of Medical Officer and Wrecker Lieutenant. Amongst their ranks include Teardown, Therapeutic and Wheeljack.

Next is Major and its equivalent Medical Lieutenant, among the ranks are Skyburst and Kup.

Captain is next alongside it's equivalent rank of Field Medic of which the ranks include Strafe and Rodimus.

Below that is Sergeant and among this rank is Moonracer.

Corporal is next and among their ranks is new character Croc Storm.

Colonel is after with Lightspeed being an example of one holding this rank.

Brigadier followed with Nosecone serving as this ranks example.

Below is Private with Whirl holding this rank.

The Torchbearers, due to their reverence of the Thirteen, view Novalis as the Thirteen's champion and have come to serve as his personal guard, becoming known as the Prime Guard by some, leading to Novalis rarely being seen without at least two of their number accompanying him.

During a Torchbearer mission to Cybertron to retrieve and secure Relics of the Primes, the Torchbearers would capture Shockwave after uncovering his lab within the Sea of Rust. Therapeutic would execute him when she learned of all the horrific experiments he'd done both before and during The War for Cybertron.

Expanding on the point above, Therapeutic is also the only person Shockwave came to fear.

During their adventures following the Fall of Gilded Earth, The Last Autobots adopted and retrofitted many of their systems with technology obtained from various allies in the war against the Decepticon Empire including tech from the Quintessons, Vok and Nebulons.

In an earlier post, I mentioned that Unicron would need to fully awaken and be free from the prison that Earth to control them. As of this post, I've retconned this so that he can't control them.

Each of the Junior Autobots fulfils a role aboard the Jasper's Legacy. For Twitch, that is serving as the protégé and next Prime after Novalis. Hashtag serves as Enigma's protégé, Nightshade works alongside the Technobots and serves as Scattershot's protégé but can often be found alongside Ratchet. Jawbreaker often serves under Teardown but can be found alongside the Predacons while Thrash was closest with the Wreckers and was often considered to be Wildshock's protégé. (Thrash did not share the same fate as the Wreckers and thus made it back into the past.)

Enigma and Teardown first formed their partnership during the Battle of the African Pass, when the two left the battle as the sole survivors of a Decepticon Intelligence outpost roughly 30 years after the Change.

The cyberforming of Earth was known as The Change and the early converted Humans known the Decepticons as the Oppressors or Invaders.

The first to join the Autobots were the Jasper Scavengers, followed by what remained of the United States Military.

The U.S.A, Russia, China, most of Europe and Australia were the only countries that managed to retain the majority of their population following The Change.

The Australians became most like the Insecticons, monstrous and bug like. They shared a mental space similar to that of a hive mind but were able to retain their individuality and no one single individual could hole mental dominion over them. (Yes, they would be Airachnid's worst nightmare).

Plasmawave was an inhabitant of France before it's fall and a criminal at the time of The Change. He would be among the first converted Humans to join the Decepticons, becoming an infiltrator and master of deception.

When the Quintessons eventually fell to the Decepticons, it was the first known instance of The Last Autobots going back on their word, though this was because a part of their negotiations with the Vok required them to break their alliance with the Quintessons. (Most of them weren't exactly found of the Quintessons anyway and didn't mourn the loss of the alliance).

The Fall of Nebulos was one of the most intense campaigns in The Final War, with Countless losses on both sides. It was the outcome of this campaign that resulted in the resurrection of Project Transwarp.

The Vok contributed to Project Transwarp with various resources and their knowledge of interdimensional and temporal energy, though even they doubted a time machine of the scale needed by Project Transwarp was capable of being created.

The war following The Change was known as The Final War and was considered the final chapter of The Great War which resulted in a Decepticon victory despite The Last Autobots traversing back in time.

The Battle for the Transwarp Drive was a desperate struggle and last stand between The Last Autobots and the Decepticons, a battle that only narrowly ended in an Autobot victory due to Novalis Prime's last-ditch effort to supercharge the transwarp drive.

There were signs that the converted humans didn't suffer the same effects they did from Dark Energon, but it never really occurred to them that they were completely immune to its effects or why until Ultra Magnus inquired one day and they had to explain, suffice to say, reactions were as to be expected from most, surprise and several looks directed towards the two Ratchets and Therapeutic for an answer.

As humanity was created by Unicron, albeit indirectly, it made sense to me that upon their conversion, they would draw on certain biological aspects unique to him. Namely three things.

The first is their Anti-Spark which is the primary factor tying them to Unicron, making them and the Cybertronians cousins.

The second is their immunity to Dark Energon, allowing them the ability to consume and be around the corruptive and toxic substance with no ill effects.

The third thing is that Unicron can't directly control or manipulate them like he could others unless he was to fully awaken: as in break free from the earth with his body, not transcend physical form awaken.

A recent development in my Gilded Future Au is the introduction of the Terrans as the Junior Autobots. First of their number is Twitch, the oldest and their leader. Born of the Emberstone when Novalis Prime(Jack) accidentally activated it, Twitch would come to be considered the "child" of Novalis Prime and Flamewarp(Sierra), being trained and taught by the two leaders of the Last Autobots.

Twitch would not participate in any major battles or conflicts, nor did she take part in any of the minor conflicts of the war, instead being confined to The Jasper's Legacy with her fellow Junior Autobots.

During charging of the Transwarp Drive, she and her fellow Junior Autobots would be confined to The Vault under Predacon guard whilst the Last Autobots fought off the Decepticon assault.

Random Fact: Parts of her design are based on an earlier version of her I drew. (Seen below)

Amongst the ships many decks include the Autobot Memorial Hall where the fallen are honoured including Team prime who stand as the tallest of the statues at the far end of the hall. (Pictured below with Novalis (Jack) for size reference, note: Statues are coloured for identification only, in universe they are grey.)

Also onboard, and rather crucial to the ships ability to function is the command bridge located on the command deck, the highest level of the warship. (Pictured below with Enigma (Raf) and Flamewarp (Sierra) for size reference.)

Other areas aboard the vessel I've yet to draw included Ratchet's medical bay, the Wrecker's Barracks, Enigma's intelligence Chamber, The Vault, the Predacon Nest, the Torchbearer's Barracks, the Engine Bay, Autobot Air Command and Scattershot's lab.

Below is the current list of named members of the Autobot crew, past, present and future.

Dana, a German who enjoyed hunting as a hobby would be converted into a Cybertronian like species when Earth was Cyberformed into Gilded Earth. She would join a small resistance group in what was formerly Europe where she earned her scars and the name Viperblade.

The resistance group she was a part of would later meet and work together with the Wreckers under the command of Wildshock(Miko), taking out a Decepticon outpost where the Eiffel Tower formerly sat.

After this mission, she and the resistance group would join the Autobot Resistance with Viperblade joining the Wreckers after a devastating mission resulted in the loss of her old group.

She would partake in The Battle for the Thanatos, helping defeat the Wrecker's long time rivals Squadron X and later participated in various other conflicts with her unit.

Born when Kup exposed Pyra Magna, Skyburst, Jumpstream, Dust Up, Rust Dust and Therapeutic(June) to the energies of the Enigma of Combination during a battle to control the ancient relic. Victorion would engage Devastator in battle, using her power to manipulate gravity and her blade to her advantage, eventually killing both Hook and Long Haul, forcing the Constructions into a retreat.
