So listen up! The way Beyond's powers work are as such ( Read more... )

Okay, for both my characters:

1. Fakir makes no secret of his real name.
2. Fakir makes no secret of his real name.
3. Fakir's life span is unknown; however, in canon Drosselmyer had given him a time limit on his lifespan - he was supposed to die by being cut in half by the Raven King once Mytho regained all the pieces of his heart. However, Fakir managed to defy this fate. If Drosselmyer had succeeded, Fakir's remaining lifespan would have been about half a year, but as I said, he's broken beyond this.
4. I would rather NOT have Beyond able to copy Fakir's powers unless we work this out as a one-time plot event thing; reason being that Fakir is stupidly powerful and his powers are extraordinarily dangerous. Fakir can alter reality by writing, and in theory this ability has few limits (I think the one major limitation is that he can't bring back the dead, though he can bring imaginary people to life ( ... )

Oh, adding onto this.

Starscream has a major verbal tic - he has one of the world's most whiny, squeaky, irritating voices. so if Beyond feels a pressing need to sound REALLY REALLY ANNOYING, go for it.

If you need an actual lifespan for Fakir, we'll say he'll live to be in his 70's and die of old age or something becuase the boy deserves a break.

Fakir - OH GOD. OH GOD. YEAH KEEP BEYOND AWAY FROM THAT STUFF. I... I DON'T EVEN WANT TO THINK ABOUT THAT.

Starscream - that is awesome. He would be so fascinated by the infinity thing. Now I'm being nosy, but why is that?

Canon was really, really bad at explaining it, becuase the Transformers G1 TV show was a TV show in the '80's, so they had this horrible habit of setting up really really interesting plot arcs and threads and then having them all disappear by the next episode. The Marvel comic might have had some kind of explanation but I haven't read those like a lame person so I don't know.

The only canonical explanation is from Beast Wars (which is the timeline I'm taking him from), where they say that Starscream's Spark has an unexplained mutation. They later try to exploit this to create a truly immortal Transformer and end up with Rampage who is a craaaazeee motherfuck.

So, in canon? No one knows.

My personal theory is that either Starscream is so much of a backstabbing asshole (His traitordom is legendary by the time Beast Wars rolls around) that the Allspark doesn't want him; or that he's just too stubborn to allow his consciousness to be absorbed into the multitude of other souls :P Maybe a little bit of both.

Fjaskdlfjj godspit, I know. I would kill for an Optimus. Any damn Optimus, I don't care what canon. or fuck just, moar transformers. needs at least some autobots/maximals to fight the evil forces of our decepticons/predacons

though I have to say that I'd really like to see moar Transformers: Animated guys (that's the new series that's animated by the guy who did Teen Titans. Very well written) OK I AM GOING TO STOP BABBLING ABOUT GIANT ROBOTS NAO.
