Lost Colonies

As the Twelve Tribes were conquered, members of many saw it fit to flee Cybertron with their prized relics, the Creation Matrixes. While many Cybertronian attempts at space colonization have been attempted, most have been doomed to failure. But five of the Twelve Tribes succeeded, forming the Lost Colonies. Curiously, each of the Lost Colonies has a larger demographic of women than on Cybertron. Most notably, Caminus, Eukaris, and Velocitron.

Caminus
Caminus is a theocratic state that still widely worships the Primes as the divided facets of their species' creator god, Primus. The ruler of Caminus is their current religious leader, the Mistress of Flame, who gives up her original name and life to take on the mantle. Being founded mostly by members of Solus Prime's tribe, they view her as their colony's patron deity and take great pride in their physical crafts.

The colony is named after the Metrotitan that brought the colonists to their new home, and came to sacrifice himself during their most dire energon crisis so that the citizens might live. While difficult to practice with the death of Caminus, there is a religious caste of Camiens with painted faces in tribute to the titan who have been thoroughly trained in the medical care of metrotitans and direct communication with them. They are called City Speakers.

Caminus exists on a world that no longer produces enough energon to sustain its population, but it does produce energon of its own that is chemically very similar to that of Cybertron. The only truly notable difference between Cybertronian energon and Camien energon is that Camien energon is blue in color. Living off of Camien energon also has a slight tiring effect. Most Cybertronians will find themselves needing an hour or few more of rest per day while living off of it compared to living off of Cybertronian energon. Despite the dwindling energon reserve however, Caminus regularly produces hot spots.

One trait that Caminus is known for is its reversal of Cybertron's gender demographics. Whereas on Cybertron the gender ratio only leaves about one in twelve Cybertronians female, on Caminus it's closer to four in five.

Devisiun
Devisiun was founded by the tribe of Nexus Prime, who flew away from Cybertron with something special hidden away within Nexus Prime's Creation Matrix; a fragment of his Enigma of Combination! As a result, every Devisen is born a split-spark twin with a unique form of combination where they have only one mode that functions alone, and must combine with their twin to form their conjoined second mode. This also means that Devisens are generally smaller than their Cybertronian counterparts.

Most Devisens are minicon or legend sized individuals who combine with their twin to form a deluxe or voyager sized alt. mode. (Micromasters.) It's also not uncommon to find Devisen twins who each have their own minicon alt. mode, but who combine to form a deluxe sized, gestalt robot mode where their minds are combined. It's fairly common for these twins to only feel complete while combined, and to only identify as their combined state. (Duocons.) On very rare occasion with Duocons, one twin will only form the head and will also have their own, minicon robot mode. While the other forms a deluxe or voyager sized robot mode with no head, but has their own complete alt. mode. These are called Headmaster pairs.

On Devisiun, Headmaster pairs are unique not only in their rarity but in their functional autonomy. Unlike other Devisens, they don't actually rely on their sibling. The Headmaster can combine with any Coremaster, and vice versa. As a result, Headmaster pairs often self-segregate to spend most of their time with other Headmaster pairs, and switching partners is common. There are entire clubs dedicated to "Headswapping."

Devisiun is a well off colony. It's only a dwarf planet, and it's not as technologically advanced as Cybertron or Caminus. But it gets by just fine and has been relatively peaceful since the end of the Age of Primes. Unlike the multi-tiered, layered surface of Cybertron with its grand spires of buildings, Devisiun has a metallic surface that looks smooth from outer space, with low, rectangular buildings, fashion aesthetics big on curves, and deep mines. Devisiun does not create new hot spots very often, but is super rich in heavy metals, minerals, and its signature yellow energon.

Due to its low mass and high density, Devisiun has a gravitational pull about on par with that of Mars.

Eukaris
Eukaris was founded by the tribe of Onyx Prime and is inhabited exclusively by beastformers, some of whom even have dinobot-like alt. modes, but they generally come in smaller sizes. It's a lush world teeming with organic life alongside of the mechanical, and it produces a green form of energon often coveted by galactic rogues and Decepticons for its side effect on "the uninitiated" of increased aggression and violent mood swings.

Governmentally, Eukaris is split into four tribes based on their alt. modes. Non-beastformers have generally been unwelcome on Eukaris since the formation of the colony. And its inhabitants are much more potent threats than one might be inclined to expect with their limited access to high technology.
 * Cloud Walkers: Anyone with a flying beast mode is welcome.
 * Fur Walkers: Anyone with a mammalian beast mode is welcome.
 * Scale Walkers: Anyone with a reptile, amphibian, insect, arachnid, or dinosaur beast mode is welcome.
 * Wave Walkers: Anyone with an amphibious or aquatic beast mode is welcome.
 * Fate Spinners: Spiders, exclusively. The Fate Spinners serve a special cultural purpose of divination which normally comes with a steep price of their choosing, and when a Fate Spinner offers their words or advising free of charge, all the tribes are inclined to listen.

Eukaris has the most even distribution of genders, with a nearly clean split.

Prion
Prion is a colony named after the Metrotitan which founded it, much like Caminus was. But unlike Caminus, the Metrotitan Prion still lives and defends the colony silently. Founded by the tribe of Micronus Prime, Prion is a small, mostly-barren looking world covered in deserts of sand, ice, or rust and inhabited by minicons with the occasional legend. Organic life is scarce, and there is no mechanical wildlife.

However, there are oasis settlements peppered about the mountain range inhabited by Prion the metrotitan. Where the energon flows freely and the thick bedrock is mottled with metal deposits within which new hot spots may form. Energon is so plentiful, it bubbles up to even create lakes, ponds, and the occasional stream or river up in the mountains.

Most structures on Prion are built externally out of stone. But within are finely polished and intricately decorated, often utilizing their plentiful energon for furnishings such as decorative fountains. Prion is most well known for their wealth of energon and its unique appearance, a rich blue filled with vibrant streams and swirls of green.
