dear vector prime, who are these medics?

Dear Medically Minded,

Lathe of Operation: Burning Sky was one of a number of Made to Order soldiers mass-produced in the wake of the Simanzi Massacree and the Forced Flood, though his wheeled alternate mode put him at a severe disadvantage in the boggy, waterlogged terrain that ultimately stymied the Autobot campaign. Like many MTOs, he found religion early on in the war, and his faith in Primus and the divinity of his “Chosen One” ultimately persuaded him to abandon the Autobots and join Starscream’s government, though he did not escape Cybertron before Unicron’s attack on the metal world.

Updraft of Devisiun emigrated to Cybertron along with her combiner sister Downwind. A medic by trade, she was fascinated by the study of mecha-biology and the allopatric processes which had resulted in several notable Cybertronian subspecies—though she was also more than a bit conceited and regarded her modular, energy-efficient body as superior to the “primitive” Cybertronian form.

Sump of Teledonia was an unsung hero of the war: when the conflict moved offworld, he was one of the Autobots under Bulkhead’s command, who battled Dauros and his Decepticons as they tried to destabilize the planet Frellus IV using infiltration protocol. Along with Turbine, Undertow, and Yamada-3, these heroes narrowly foiled Dauros’s plan to exterminate the native Hasmata by inflaming geopolitical tensions and deliberately sparking a thermonuclear conflict. Something of an egotist, Sump assumed that he would be handsomely commended for his cool head and heroism, but was dismayed to learn that Optimus Prime had already left his command post to take care of another situation on a backwater planet called “Earth”—it is unsurprising that he deserted the Autobots at the first opportunity. Despite his newfound faith in the Chosen One, he died during the Iron Ring’s attack on Iacon.
