Homebrew Cybertronian Species Details
Cybertronians are alien beings who appear as larger-than-life giants, wholly constructed of metal and machinery. Their size is eclipsed only by their complexity in composition, as one would be hard pressed to find technology as advanced as what Cybertronians are made of. No two Cybertronians are alike, though they may share similar base chassis and cores. Every Cybertronian is well equipped with tough metal parts and various mechanical extensions, allowing them to shift into weaponry and other forms of travel. Cybertronians are notable for their ability to shift into vehicles and mounts as self-configuring modular robotic lifeforms. This feat is possible through a synergistic blend of bio-mechanical evolution and self-technological engineering. While in this form, they retain total control of themselves and therefore are rarely passively driven or ridden.
