MUX History[]

In 2012, the Dweller was released from beneath Cybertron, and when his thrall Hubcap was taken into Darkmount, the Dweller followed, laying siege to Polyhex.

Until 2012, Cyclonus ruled most of Cybertron from Darkmount. However, at the end of 2012 the Dweller invaded Polyhex, and most of the remaining Decepticon forces on Cybertron have retreated to Tarn and Tyrest.

In 2013, with communication disruptions between Cybertron and Earth due to the Quintesson invasion, most of the forces relocated to Earth.

In 2018, Cybertron underwent a time of rebirth, and is well on its way to a new Golden Age.

What If? Universes[]

Apocalypse World[]

In the Apocalypse World alternate future, Cybertron has again fallen into ruin, and the remaining Transformers lead lives of violent desperation.

Bot World[]

When Unicron attacked Cybertron in 2005, Optimus Prime was able to defeat the Chaos God using the Matrix, cementing the Autobots' feeling of invulnerability. Without a leader, Cyclonus and the Sweeps settled on Chaar, where they eke out a meager existence while plotting their revenge on the Destroyer of Unicron.

Deadite universe[]

The Deadite universe is one in which The Evil has taken over everyone on Cybertron and Earth.

Decepticon World[]

The Autobots' desperate attempt to launch the Ark ends in failure, and the majority of Iacon's inhabitants are permanently off-lined. Megatron reigns supreme over Cybertron, as well as many other worlds conquered by the Decepticons, now truly an Empire. The few survivors of the Ark Massacre live beneath the surface of the planet, determined to survive no matter the cost.

When Unicron attacked Cybertron in 2005, Megatron forced Autobot prisoner Hot Rod, Matrix that Megatron had ripped out of Optimus Prime's chest. Once Unicron was destroyed, Megatron killed this "Last Autobot," believing then that he had extinguished the final spark of the Autobots forever.

Quintesson World[]

The Quintesson World universe is one in which A3 failed in his rebellion against the Quintessons, and they still rule Cybertron in the year 2016.

Geography[]

Since an official map of Cybertron wasn't released until 2011 with the publication of Transformers Vault, most fan-made maps (and both versions of Cybertron on the MUX) don't always gel up with the oft-conflicting canon. With the publication of an 'official' Cybertron map, the Cybertrons on TFU has been modified to fit official canon.

Shattered Glass[]

In the Shattered Glass universe, Cybertron was a mecca of peace until fairly recently in its history. It still revolves around its sun and has proper day and night, but due to the war isn't quite the tourist destination it used to be. True to its backwards universe, Cybertron can be a frightening and arbitrary place whose natives are born from Omega Terminus and possess embers instead of cores. Shattered Glass

Imagine a junk yard. Now make it the size of a planet, and set big patches of it on fire. I suppose that's interesting in a horrible sort of way, but there's nothing appealing about it.

Shattered Glass[]

Shattered Glass Cybertron[]

In this dark mirror universe, Cybertron is a world defined by inversion — of morality, history, and fate. Long ago, the mighty Titans strode its surface, their legacy lost to the erosion of time.

Beneath this ancient heritage, however, a deeper force stirred: the malevolent supercomputer Omega Terminus, buried deep within the planet's crust. Unlike other universes, Cybertron here is shrouded in atmospheric water vapor and floats through space without a fixed orbit, drifting across the stars toward fateful alignments and calamities.

Omega Terminus governs life and death on this Cybertron. Rather than birthing new life through traditional sparks, it recycles the dead, reanimating their corpses and imbuing them with "embers" — dark, twisted facsimiles of life, leaving a haunting mark on every Transformer it creates.

Cybertron was once a place of peace and intellectual pursuit, where science and social harmony flourished. But that golden age crumbled under the ambition of a once-innocuous librarian named Optimus Prime. Twisting ideals into tyranny, Prime founded the brutal faction known as the Autobots, whose creed was conquest, plunder, and the subjugation of all life, mechanical or organic.

Opposing them were the Decepticons, a coalition of freedom fighters led by the idealistic warrior Megatron, who had once protested peacefully against a corrupt Senate. Their cause — one of rebellion and liberation — soon turned into a desperate civil war. The Autobots wielded unchecked power, but the Decepticons refused to submit. The fighting engulfed Cybertron and, for a time, spilled over to distant Earth, where the Decepticons launched a failed resistance campaign and were forced to retreat to their homeworld.

As the war dragged on, Cybertron's energy reserves were bled dry, and its path through the cosmos led it dangerously close to the volatile Plait Expanse, a swirling nebula that would soon isolate the planet from the rest of the galaxy. In a last gambit for domination, Optimus Prime commissioned the construction of the Ark, a massive starship designed to conquer Earth.

The Decepticons intercepted his first launch attempt, delaying his escape. As the window of opportunity narrowed, Prime made a second attempt — this time with success — but a climactic battle between the Ark and the pursuing Decepticon ship Nemesis left both Prime and Megatron stranded on Cybertron as it entered the Expanse.

Amid this chaos, the Autobots’ unity crumbled. Goldbug and Prowl, disillusioned with Prime’s bloodthirsty vision, splintered off and founded their own kingdom, vying for power and engaging in cold skirmishes with their former allies. The planet fractured politically and geographically.

Meanwhile, Megatron, now a weary veteran of too many losses, abandoned the fractious war. Disillusioned by the failure of his movement and haunted by the pain of returning to a lost world, he retreated to Cybertron’s wilderness, becoming a solitary hermit far from the carnage and politics that once defined him.

In 2013 Cybertron was engulfed in a new civil war between Ultra Magnus's Junkions and the combined Autobot/Decepticon forces under Alpha Trion.

In 2016, Prime returned from the dead to retake control of the Autobots and reignite the war between the Autobots and the Decepticons.

Thus stands Cybertron — a war-scarred, drifting planet ruled by tyrants, haunted by embers, and teetering on the edge of oblivion. The past is a battlefield, and the future, uncertain. But in this shattered glass universe, even the darkest reflection can still cast a spark of resistance.

2011[]

Apr 17 - SG-Cybertron[]

A Few Months Ago: A huge derelict vessel showed up in orbit above SG-Earth. SG-Magnus, along with several other SG-Transformers, investigated. Turns out the ship (which looked suspiciously like the Event Horizon) was actually alive and was an SG-Junkion (think Reavers from Firefly & Serenity) named Ahr-Vee. An experimental FTL system knocked Ahr-Vee out and put him into Earth's orbit. While the Cybertronians were on board, Ahr-Vee woke up, and everyone but SG-Magnus escaped before he opened the gateway back to the SG Planet of Junk.
Today: While SG-Perceptor was broadcasting the execution of Slugfest on ABN, Temperance staged a daring rescue from orbit. Cosmos gave chase, but Temperance evaded him. Before Cosmos could continue pursuit, the SG-Junkions activated their gravity drive and folded space directly into the Plait Expanse. Practically the entire Junkion fleet passed into the Cybertron system. Temperance saved Slugfest as the Junkions poured onto the surface of Cybertron, led by SG-Magnus.

While wholesale pandemonium spread across Cybertron, Magnus chased Perceptor and Cuffs back to Iacon. Perceptor went to activate the Stellar Spanner (the SG version of the Space Bridge) so he could flee to Earth, while Cuffs got stuck outside. Magnus grabbed Cuffs, brought him up to the Spellar Spanner, killed Perceptor and threw Cuffs in instead. Cuffs (along with Perceptor's head) was then sent through to Earth to deliver a message to Emperor Prime: Magnus is coming for him.

Cybertron is now occupied by the SG-Junkions. There are still survivors, but they've gone into hiding. Under the Old One's leadership, the Autobots and Decepticons, under Elita-One and Cyclonus respectively, have teamed up to stop Magnus and his Junkion invaders.

2016[]

  • August 19 - "A Premature Coronation" - While he would never would publicly admit he was happy hearing of the demise of ruthless Autobot leader Emperor Prime, Jetfire has barely contained his enthusiasm for being selected the next Autobot leader. While this has led to many grumblings throughout the Autobot rankings, Old One believed propping Jetfire up as leader would have best served his purposes. Now, as a small gathering of disarmed Decepticon leaders are forced to watch the coronation of the traitor Jetfire, the extravagant gala begins. However, a late arrival proves fatal to Jetfire. The moral of the story - if you are going to take something that belongs to Emperor Prime, you best be sure the leader is really dead.
