I'm not sure where to start on here, so here's a newer oc. Her name is Stormflare, and she is one of my next gen transformers characters in my Legacy Echoes AU. I'll get more into it later, but in this au, the command trine are together and conjuxes. Stormflare is the sparkling of Starscream and Skywarp.

So, I'm going to talk more about Stormflare and my Legacy Echoes AU. So, she's the only character I've actually drawn, but there are actually 20 next gen characters I made, only about 5 or so are actually main characters. I even have next-next gen characters. Legacy Echoes has an actual story more or less, but my mind latches onto world building and character building more than the story. I can't help it!

Basically as a quick overview, in this AU, Legacy Echoes, the war is over and Cybertron is rebuilding, the characters we already know have settled down, started work, or found their new place on Cybertron. The story focuses on their children.

Now about Stormflare specifically, she is the oldest of four. In my AU, the command Trine are together and are all Conjuxes. Stormflare is the biological daughter of Starscream and Skywarp. Her three brothers are Riftwing, the biological sparkling of Thundercracker and Skywarp, and Virex, the biological sparkling of Starscream and Thundercracker. Together, the command trine also adopted a raptor (bird of prey like) beastformer named Talon when he was about 3 years old. He is the youngest of the siblings.

Stormflare has a fighter jet alt-mode. She is a scout captain and occasionally does aerial performances like Skywarp used to. She is daring, dramatic, and theatrical. She looks good and she knows it.

Here is an overview of my Transformers AU, Legacy Echoes.

What is Legacy Echoes?

It's a mult-generational Transformers AU that explores the aftermath of the war between the Autobots and Decepticons. In this AU, the war is over, and Cybertron is slowly rebuilding. The focus is on the next generation of sparklings, born or adopted by war survivors, who are coming of age in a society still healing from the deep fractures of its past. Rather than large-scale battles, the story centers on identity, family, emotional legacy, and the struggle to redefine Cybertron's future while facing threats rooted in forgotten histories.

Core Themes:

• Rebuilding from war and trauma

• Family in all its forms (biological, adopted, chosen)

• Legacy vs. individual choice

• Identity, outlier powers, and belonging

• Cultural revival and spark traditions

• New threats rising from old wounds

Generational Scope:

• Founders: The war-era characters (Optimus, Megatron, Rodimus, Ratchet, etc.) Now leaders, mentors, or trying to retire.

• Next Generation: ~20 characters, each the offspring (biological or adopted) of the Founders. They are the focus of the AU.

• Next-Next Gens: Fun speculative future, created for hypothetical arcs. Not central to the main story.

Elevator Pitch:

What happens after the war is over, when peace is no longer an ideal but a reality to be lived? Legacy Echoes follows the new generation of Cybertronians raised by legends, defined by their own sparks as they inherit a fractured world, discover themselves, and decide what kind of future to build from the echoes of the past.

Vibe Words:

Legacy, healing, inheritance, echos, renewal
