Please tell me of the 3 skrunkies 🙏🙏
Or even just one of 'em
🥺 <- wishes to hear about them (please)
YOU DONT KNOW HOW MUCH THIS MEANS TO ME!!
Gonna write a short summary for each of em' bc I'll go into a full rant otherwise. So, the 3 skrunkies are called Downfall, MotorRaid, A-Strike (still working on names, but I like downfall the most)
Pre-war, Downfall's purpose on Cybertron was to be a military weapon. Her original alt-mode was a sniper rifle, she attended training and was usually wielded by one of her closer troop members. When the war first began, she easily sided with the Decepticons.
Early on became a bounty hunter, capturing/killing Autobots for payments. Rarely ever went after her own faction, but a good payment is a good payment...With this payment, she went under several modifications. The most prominent is her right arm which was modified to turn into a sniper rifle, that way she can actually fight without transforming. Second, for practicality, she replaced her right optic with a sniper scope as well (she totally didn't lose her eye)
During her time as a bounty hunter, she teamed up with A-Strike and MotorRaid (although very begrudgingly) to form their own little group. It didn't go too well, so that didn't last long. They willingly joined the Decepticons under Megatrons command, Downfall becomes a loyal sniper. In whatever continuity, whenever she travels to Earth, she chooses a jet mode (ATN - 51) I'd like to think that her overall personality is like...TFA Prowl except more aggressive, less curious, more impulsive :D
next up is...MotorRaid
Raid was originally a junk-loader on Cybertron. He brought and took back materials and junk and other construction bots did the rest of the work. He picked out what did and what didn't get transported to planet Junkion. With this job, he found out he had a thing for collecting small trinkets. Collecting and hoarding them. Despite having literal massive hands he somehow can pick out small gears and knows where everything is in junk piles.
Not to mention he has a thing for organizing, expect to find him in a junkyard organizing literal garbage by size and color
To be honest? He didn't hate his job, he just disliked how bots of his caste were treated. He also quickly became a Megatron supporter.
Upon going to The Pits more often, perhaps he also found out he had a thing for participating in fights and brawls...bro had a violence awakening
Once teamed up with the other two bots, he took the role of being a "look-out" and also was in charge of taking care of the bigger bots. He's not quiet/sneaky like Downfall or clever like A-Strike, but he's built like a cybertronian bodybuilder with suppressed anger issues, man
He's a pretty quiet bot actually, looks more intimidating than his actual personality. More prone to give mercy than any of the rest
Next up is A-Strike
Also took part in military training as an Aviation Maintenance Officer. His alt mode is like...a massive transport aircraft. Literally, no one liked working with him because bro is too strict and a perfectionist but he also did his job right sooo
Doesn't know how to take accountability, only reason he sided with the Decepticons was because he blamed the upper castes (no one likes me...it must be the higher-ups fault >:( ) Here he learned he can't boss everyone around or else he's gonna get beat up (he got beat up)
Joined with Downfall and Raid because they killed a bot he didn't like, thought they had similar mindsets and didn't realize they were literally bounty hunters. Either way, he became somewhat like a strategist to them since "their ideas weren't good enough" and somehow he was also good at that
Didn't end up actually joining Megatron's ranks when the other two did, he just kinda did his own thing afterward
tbh I still need a complete backstory for him so this might change :D
Good morning everyone, i present to you..Downfall
In TFA style ofc :D
i would love to know more about Downfall🤲
Aahajasi currently foaming at the mouth
IF YOU HAVE ANY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK!! She’s the oc i have most fleshed out for this fandom and so many thoughts occupy my brain, man. I’ll be listing off random headcanons of her but again, for specific questions feel free to ask :D
Referring back to this post, after her modifications, her right arm turns into a sniper rifle right? However this doesn’t mean she can’t transform her entire body still, she just chooses not to ever since getting that modification. If she tried to transform however…that would be painful and difficult as hell. After millions of years of neglecting her alt-mode, at this point it’s not exactly functional anymore
Another fun fact! Her scope eye involuntarily tends to zoom in on a person depending on her emotions (curiosity, suspicion, admiration, surprise) and at objects for the same reasons pretty much
Im sleep deprived and cant think of any more but please ask more questions about any of my blorbos…always happy to answer…(currently working on more complex designs for them which i will post one day)
this was so stupid but this would totally be their friend dynamic (it was revealed to me in a dream)
(Downfall belongs to @i-starcreamed )
((i love her btw can u tell))
... unrelated to the ask about her height but how's she feel about being held by someone whose like. 12 ft taller than her
They're v polite tho I promise
OMG!! She’ll probably feel a lil embarrassed and maybe intimidated but her face would just be :| or :o
Embarrassed because…she feels so small and she doesn’t like it…
Inspired by @i-starcreamed 's awesome headcanons for Swerve and a huge badass Cybertronian Swerve Enjoyer. Also borrowing their sick as fuck OC Motor Raid!!!
I i i i uh does- prepares something silly:
AHHH!!
I like to call this piece
"Whatcha got there?" "A smoothie"
Downfall belongs to @i-starcreamed
Drew the blorbos with quotes from my friends and i, completely random sketches on work that was due 3 weeks ago idk
I tried touching the paper with two fingers to undo but it didnt work🥹
HHNGNNN no one asked for the critters but i must deliver…ignore how they’re all in different styles each one was worked on on different weeks💀
In order from left to right: Downfall , A-Strike, MotorRaid 💏

Headcanons for dating your ocs 👀
you have no idea how much i started foaming at the mouth when I saw this request. I'm so behind on asks tbh but slowly getting them done. Somehow this was a little tough to write but yippee
[mention of human!reader, cybertronian!reader / post includes: Downfall, MotorRaid, and A-Strike]
DOWNFALL
If you're a human she lovesss having you sitting on her shoulder. Just don't get too close to her shoulder canon (or do) it can get quite warm
Not a fan of PDA because omg, her reputation!! But won't stop you from initiating it. In private though, will not let you go, ever.
if you're a bot that shorter than her, she's gonna try picking you up just for funsies, no arguments. Out of no where too
If you're taller than her welllll, she'll good as hell try
her silly lil quirk is at an all-time high around you. If you feel someone looking at you, 9 times out of 10 you'll see her gazing at you and her scope just zoomed in. Depending on how long you've been together, she'll either quickly look away or continue doing it with a smug expression
Even though she hasn't used her alt mode in years, you're definitely the only one she trusts enough to work with her alt mode. Only if absolutely necessary. (it hurts to fully transform pls be there to soothe her afterward)
The type you can sit in comfortable silence with. Although theres a 70% chance she’ll suddenly remember a memory and bring it up very cryptically (you’re chilling next to each other, suddenly she looks up and says “the rusted pipe👁” or something)
Also expect playful bickering
This goes for all of them but you’re immediately introduced to MotorRaid and A-Strike. You have three personal body guards now and one who’s specifically in love with you
MOTOR RAID
Surprisingly gentle for the same reason, he's a large bot that can get ahead of himself quite often. Would never hurt his partner but would do anything for them
Also, someone who loves spoiling you?? Will give you meaningful trinkets that are probably hundreds of years old with a cool story attached to them. Also brings you anything that reminds him of you. If you love collecting or hoarding like he does, his collection of items is suddenly shared with you too
if you give him something...now you know how to make a grown mech cry. keeps it in a special space where he wont lose it
Like I said...personal body guard. Very accurate example here (thank you swervenation 🙏)
*looms*
I feel like he'd be very flexible too, as in, if you're someone who needs their independence he's cool with that. If you're someone who loves spending time together, also cool with that.
PDA, affection...also very very okay
^ has a lot to give
always tries to do new things he hears of btw (writing poems is romantic? = will write you really bad poems from his spark. Making personalized gifts? = he was never involved with building things but will make something out of all his little items that probably fall apart with one gust of wind)
erm...training together
if you were together before the war, very happy if you cheer him on in his fights
A-STRIKE
A first he's an absolute menace to deal with, his high standards coming into the relationship. With time, learns to deal with it and omg, maybe he'll learn how to apologize!!
Honestly,,, probably steals from his job to bring you weapons and other cool stuff. Suddenly deception weaponry starts going missing, who could it be?
His little fin things are very expressive, not that hard to tell how he's feeling.
Despite wanting to seem all tough and superior, he's so easy to fluster. Like, do something nice for him and his little fins flare up. He's thankful he has a mouthplate and visor to hide his expression, but little does he know
If someone threatens you, he whips out his blasters so quick
First to initiate PDA tbh, very affectionate in a "look everyone, I have such an amazing partner" type of way
likes going on flights with you :D if you're a flyer, he absolutely wants you to join him whenever he's completing a job
really likes to just chill with you while eating your favorite energon snacks.
He's either really chill or insists on you watching him performing tricks in his alt-mode. He has a more heavy-duty altmode so its a little difficult, fails 238389 times and when he gets it right he says he got it first try
He also has a habit of journaling everything ever since the war started. Very good way to just let go of things. Has a whole library of datapads he just documented in. Surprisingly has a beautiful way of wording things and will absolutely read you some of them
I didn't even know you had ocs but the last post you did w dating hcs has me intrigued! Do you have ref pages for them or anything? :0 I'd love to see/read more about them!
HII i dont have any full ref pages yet, but this post has a little info/background info on them. Since some people seem to be interested, I’ll for sure eventually work on making ref sheets :3
Also my general tag #kierscritters has some stuff on them too, mostly art from very nice people
🥀 feel free to answer w any of ur ocs
How good is your OC at meeting deadlines? What motivates them?
“Oh, I'm very good at meeting deadlines. I like to see the shocked look on their faces when I complete something before anyone else (I am crippled by perfectionism)”
For the ask meme, heatcycle and🌵
- @loveofbots
How physically resilient is your OC?
“I can assure you I’ve been through more gunfire than most bots half my size, and I’m still standing!”
maggie’s hud readouts are so fucking funny to me as a concept. reblog and tag this post with what you think they would say about you or your OC(s).
ART DUMP!!
human downfall…and motorraid. Tried experimenting with some different styles since I’ll be working on a comic in the summer :D
omg early trio concepts!! Excuse the very smudged school notebook, but look at them,,, a-strike is the only one who didnt change (this was done late last year)
And some more human stuff i did, literally just a few minutes ago😊
