Transformers Warfare: Shield of Solus
The Shield of Solus is an all femme Autobot strike team. After the original version of the team was disbanded and its members joining up with different teams and groups, the Autobot known as Splendid Magnus was personally appointed by Elita One to form a new group. Electing to stay on Cybertron and fend off Shockwave’s forces as he took over the barren world in Megatron’s name, Splendid and her team will do whatever it takes to ensure Optimus Prime and the rest of the Autobots don’t come back home to a Decepticon ruled planet.
The only previous member of the Shield of Solus to be apart of this iteration of the group, Splendid was Elita One's second in command. Intelligent, courageous, and self sacrificial, some might liken her to a female version of Optimus Prime, though her insistence that her fellow teammates have the same yellow color scheme as herself might make her seem a little vain.

Most bots with large and tough tend to have more muscles then brains. Strika the military strategist and Bulkhead the Space Bridge engineer turned Wrecker seem to be the only true exceptions. Treadbolt, meanwhile, seems to fall somewhere in the middle of the spectrum. She's not as intelligent as the previously mentioned bots, but she's willing to brave whatever the Decepticons can throw at her if it means she can help her friends, and to most, that's good enough.

Circuit used to be a sort of "used car salesmen" bot which gave the term a near-universal bad meaning, alongside the likes of Swindle. Trickdiamond, and Daytrader. That is, until she became the victim of an incident known as the "Iron Hope Disaster", in which an Autobot starship was attacked by Decepticons, which then crash landed on an energon starved planet. Forced to survive off of nucleon, an unstable substance known for temporarily supercharging Transformers at the cost of their ability to transform if used for a long enough period of time, Circuit was devastated to lose her alternate form, enough so that she took it as a sign that she needed to change her ways. Taking this lesson to spark, she used whatever equipment and contacts she still had left when she returned to Cybertron to build herself a transforming exo-suit that could turn into her original alt mode. Now armed with a vast array of weaponry, she's a dedicated Autobot, albeit one who misses what she has lost.
Circuit used to transform into a Cybertronian race car. Her exo-suit is armed with a decelerator cannon and an X18 Scrapmaker.
Vain, mean spirited, arrogant, and just a tad bit psychopathic, Sunstreaker is not one would imagine when they think of an Autobot. A former gladiator, Sunstreaker was one of the few to ever battle Megatron in the pre-war days and live to tell the tale, and she's self centered enough to let everyone know. Her tendencies are often held in check by her brother Sideswipe... but Sideswipe isn't here to do so. And that's a major problem, both for the Decepticons, and the Autobots.
Sunstreaker transforms into a Cybertronian sports car. She is armed with an Electron Pulse Blaster and can transform her hands into pile drivers.
The younger sister of the Autobot team commander Goldbug, Bumblebee is every bit the cheerful and brave scout her brother was in his youth. Often regarded as the "little sister" of practically any Autobot team she becomes a part of, Bumblebee has found her most recent addition to the Shield of Solus no different an experience as any other. Unfortunately, she's a little self conscious about her size and lack of physical strength, but at the end of the day, she knows that as long as she remains fearless, there's nothing she can't do.

Once part of the Street Action Team alongside her teammates Grindor and High Wire, Sureshock was unintentionally left behind when Cybertron was evacuated. Found and rescued by Splendid Magnus, Sureshock immediately joined the Shield of Solus, as a mutually beneficial relationship (she needed protection from Shockwave and his forces, the team needed a strategist). Though she may seem aloof to her new group, Sureshock just needs some time to adjust to the absence of her previous group and combination partners.
Sureshock transforms into a Cybertronian ATV. She doesn't carry weapons, being a non-combatant.
Sister of Autobot communications officer Blaster and the spy Toaster, Karmen followed in espionage much like her brother, but in a different fashion. While Toaster may be content to appear as an ordinary data stick, transferring information back and forth to his brother, Karmen is more suited to lying in wait for the perfect opportunity to attack her opponents from the inside - most often while her team is already assaulting the fortress she's in. Intermittently, she also likes to make a Decepticon or two "disappear" while they're alone with her, just to make things easier on her group. However, these waiting periods often leave her distracted and lost in her thoughts... particularly ones involving Sunstreaker, whom she's grown attracted to.
Karmen can transform into a Cybertronian data stick for espionage and a Cybertronian car for making getaways. She is armed with a laser pistol.
