Not sure if you thought of this but are the animals organic or cybaranimal or alien? I really don't know lol, not sure if there will be beastformers or Predacons in that world. Since there are fur and all that Megatron wears.

They’re a mix of cybernetic and organic! Thorns and Thrones is a soft body au, so nothing exactly ‘transforms’ mechanically (mecha, techanimals, beastformers)

This AU does have mythical elements added to it as well! Transformations are totally on the table if you’re dealing w Sorcery, Curses, Demonic possession, or Changelings

The furs are absolutely from a variety of techanimals that exists in this world from cyberwolves down to cybercattle, mythical techbeasts exists too, but they’re rarer to come by nowadays. However, since the Allspark’s disappearance, it seems more and more that strange, dangerous creatures are showing up out of thin air.

The ancient Predacons were rumored to be nothing short of half-beast, as not many outside of their people shared the knowledge on how they could seamlessly communicate with and command anything from titanical serpents to dragons. The Predacons aren’t in the current timeline of the AU, but many speculate that the Dinobots tucked away in the unclaimed Isles are descendants of them!

Dinobot armor is highly sought after since it’s believed that the scales of fallen dragons have been passed down through those family lines. Trading for this impenetrable, fire proof, material rarely ever happens. It’s more common to negotiate a hefty hand-crafted weapon or brilliantly colored fabrics, the latter kudos to skills brought in by the Seekers who merged with the Dinobots, than it is the ever get your hands on scaled armor. Because of it’s rarity, Dinobots who venture out of the Isles frequently conceal their coveted armor in furs.

so crash course, furs, scales, hides, and teeth, some materials used more commonly than others, are techno organic materials used to create clothes and armor in this world outside of the usual metal ore!

#thorns and thrones au #asks #lore lore lore #yes you saw that right the seekers and Dinobots reside in the isles together since the seekers were banished from Autobot lands! #the Dinobots are isolated by choice for protection. space. and recourses from the sea! very solitary so it’s assumed that they don’t want to #be bothered. like ever. #which is definitely true but recluses can’t exactly grow their people and the seekers were cast out from rumors much like they were so the #merge was welcomed! #it took some warming up but #sharing protection and resources with the Dinobots so all it’s WELL. though trading since the merge is a bit more pricey since there’s an #ever increasing number of mouths to feed ! #and yessss demons and creatures are borderline rampant since the disappearance of the allspark! the Council and High Priests claim it’s a #punishment from their Primus brought on by the greedy decepticons :// ah yes blame everything on the decepticons bc that totally solves #every single problem ever right #RIGHT??🙄🙄🙄🙄
