My littlecloudbot children! They’re supposed to be kits in this drawing but by now they’re well into their apprenticeships. They grow up so fast,,,

So I'm gonna be honest, I want to know literally everything about your transformer oc

cracks knuckles

Ya’ll really wanna go. Alright. I’ll start at the beginning and work my way to the present.

Her name is Rootkit and she’s a Decepticon. She was originally unfactioned and survived by hacking into cybertronian mainframes during the war and selling the information to the highest bidder with the attempt to get her and her sparkmate/conjunx Herculex off of the planet so they wouldn’t have to deal with it. One day she left to go sell off some information and came back to find her hideout destroyed, blown up pretty much, with Herculex in the rubble. She found out that it was done by Autobots and, spurred by vengeance, joined the Decepticons with the intent to make them pay.

During her time in the Decepticon ranks she ended up working at a facility owned by one particularly twisted asshole named Mindwarp (Who belongs to my friend Justin and was previously named Psyche but became kind of a Dr Jekyll/Mr Hyde scenario through some stupid shit Shockwave pulled). Through a series of successful high level missions, and some minor hacking into the mainframe, she quickly rose in ranks to a point where Mindwarp himself developed an interest in her, and brainwashed her into working for him as his personal guard. He also brainwashed her into falling in love with him, because he’s a twisted fuck, and did all kinds of horrible things to her while she was under his control.

Later on in some stroke of clarity, Psyche came back to the surface and realized what a horrible person he’s been, by Decepticon standards, and releases Rootkit and his other 2 special Chosen Ones. He chucks her in a stasis pod and sends her off to Megatron, with the hopes that she’d be able to fix herself and contribute to the Decepticon cause by her own free will.

Fast forward later, the pod crashes on Earth and sends out a Decepticon distress signal and is found by Soundwave and Knockout. The second it opens she basically sprints off, reveling in her newfound freedom and the fact that she doesn’t have to take orders from anybody anymore, but is quickly pulled back by the two and brought to the Nemesis because like, Megatron isn’t gonna want some rogue Decepticon running around.

After a brief Cortical Psychic Patch that Megatron enstates to make sure she’s not some kind of traitor or sleeper agent, he gives her the ultimatum to work with him, which she accepts for the sole reason that she likes his computer system setup. Throughout the course of her time there she has some pretty bad PTSD episodes via her old brainwashing, and often goes to Knockout for regular joint checkups and to also kind of vent. Knockout is technically also a psychiatrist so, he medicates her, helps her get through these episodes, and they grow like a sort of codependent relationship. She goes to him for regular checkups so she can function correctly, and he finally gets to talk with somebody who’s not insane or hell bent on overthrowing Megatron or getting him involved in any stupid shit. This is after Breakdown dies in the series.

She eventually also gets kind of close to Soundwave because like, they both work on the computers and are both pretty good hackers, so she’s gotten really good at ‘listening’ to him and understanding him when he’s around.

Currently I’m rping with a friend after Megatron’s disbanding of the Decepticons after Beast Hunters, and well into Robots In Disguise after Soundwave escapes the Shadow Zone.

Basically what happened is Rootkit and Knockout work with the autobots now and considering they’re like, the only ones from the nemesis, and also have been through some shit, they’re currently in a relationship in my rps with my partner Coop.

But uh

YEAH THERE SHE IS HOPE U ENJOYED.

ROOT LOREDUMP

A buncha random facts aboout Rootkits!Sans

Root is a virus that inhabits a Sans body, specifically the Sans of Infectious!Tale.

Root's host had combined ADHD, aka both hyperactive and inattentive ADHD, and it's carried over into his current personality

Root is very aware of social cues and personal space, but he actively ignores it.

Root acts like he doesn't remember his AU.

Root can see the code of entities and edit, steal, or copy that code with his strings (his strings come from both his left eye and the fur on his coat)

There are things too powerful and/or complex for Root to manipulate. 404, Omni, Infected, and Dealmaker's souls are good examples of things he can't mess with.

Root's bones and Gaster Blasters are made of code he's stolen or copied. (After meeting 404 he mostly copies the Dark Blasters)

I was gonna have Root be mute and only talk with text boxes, but I'm gonna abandon that, I'm too lazy to keep that up or logic it out.

The glitching around his eye is actually a portal like the ones he can summon, It leads somewhere in the anti-void, no ones sure exactly where, not even him.

He does work for Error!404 with Error (I'm gonna remake my "EMPLOYER" comic cause it was shit, still gonna have Root be weirdly ok with working for 404 tho)

(this is what Root looks like normally)

Just felt like spewing some random facts cause yes :)

Department Info

World wide web internet safety woooooooooooooo. Antivirus shit. Names originally like the opposite to the current titles or somethin. Uh oh one day bot-herder fucked up and now theyre all even more of an evil shitheads and will beat the shit out of toons and cogs. Are kinda just live laugh loving while chairman is wondering what the fuck to do with this gaggle of homosexuals. Does this shit match and make sence with cannoN? No, but funny puter virus robots :^]

The Cogs

Bot-herder/Steve Macintosh (He/Him, genderqueer bisexual objectum) = da bosss. Trying to keep up a cool and professional demeanour, failing. Hes behind it all. loves his g3 imac computer wife (her names gala btw). Usually avoids questions about his personal life

Phisher/Brooke Rivulet (He/him, genderqueer gay) = weird old geezer. Good argument but unfortunately i have your ip address. Likes to scam children. Begrudgingly friends with adware. Women fear me fish want me. Hes also married to a phantom shark cog that i have not named yet...

Adware/Poppy Addison (She/they/he, genderfluid aroace) = hot single computers in your area!!!! Totally hip and trendy with the kidz. Enjoys doing artsy stuff, but only so that she could use them in scams. ���Besties’ with phisher. knows

Spyware/Carmen Bond (They/them, nonbinary lesbian) = the epic cool awesome one. Scaringly good at disguises. God forbid women do anything (gender neutral). Gatekeep gaslight girlboss (gender neutral x2). Kind of an asshole sometimes

Ransomware/Rensen Murasa (She/her, genderqueer pansexual) = yo ho ho. No 1 fan of pirating media but also stealing peoples money. No shop is too heavy to lift when it comes to her. Inasnely good at bullet hell games. Held one of scarewares limbs for ransom once

Rootkit/Cordy Ralis (It/its genderqueer aromantic) = apartment complex? I find it quite simple. Self proclaimed intellectual. Big fan of anything and everything zombie related. Watches those how to survive insert horror movie videos.

Trojan Horse/Dolon Hephaestus (He/they, demiboy bisexual) = the other cool one, but in a more warriormale way. Fight fight fight. Unconventional plans that end up working. Will secretly download viruses on your computer. Also hes an owl, get bamboozled

Worm/Klez Morris (He/him, trans gay) = worlds most silly normal guy. Always needs to leave those ‘klez was here!!’ type messages on every surface possible. Could probably kill a person and get away with it.

Scareware/Taise Oíche (She/he, bigender bisexual) = weirdo little shit that likes to scare and ‘prank’ people (giving them 25 million viruses on their computer after scaring them into downloading a fake antivirus program). Claims to religiously watch horror movies, is a poseur

does anybody wanna hear about my fan-department (netbots :^]) toontown cog ocs................... theyre super cool (lie) and computery...................

[crystal-va]

Good Sir. I made the thingy-.. Uhh.. Comic-fanart thingy-.. Like for a while now.. I am.. Not sure. If I did the persona good or bad?.. I think Mix give Willam a consecutive scare from time to time. Edith is the baby-girl (a caterpillar) who just past messages through Willam. Since Willam steals codes that Mix make out of boredom.

I made the comic when Rootkit first met Edith (a caterpillar) I thought that rootkit might call them "Shrimp" because they look like one. TvT idk if it's alright?????????? TvT I'm tranferring it currently at digital.. Since I occasionally do traditional.. I hope it ok-

[[ Also Old design of Willam. And Mix still calls him Error 404 ]]

Here a peak-

Oooooo~ Very interesting... I eagerly (and patiently) await!

(also redrew this myself because it felt weird to not add something)

(no text cause I'm lazy-)

btw Edith is very adorable~
