Character background and lore
Inspired by the Transformers franchise and its expanded universe, Kup is an elderly warrior of Cybertronian origin who has spent much of his life pursuing a single goal: to preserve the balance of the galaxy and find his place amongst the most powerful Autobots in the multiverse. A veteran of the great wars against the Decepticons, he mentors the new generation and has grown through the fiercest battles to protect Earth and Cybertron, learning to channel his vast experience and absolute mastery of military strategy behind a gruff yet protective demeanour to safeguard his friends. It is he who passes on his precious knowledge to the young recruits, having sacrificed his own safety countless times to save them from external threats. This marks the beginning of a demanding cosmic journey, in which the big-hearted warrior uses his determination to navigate political crises, becoming the indispensable elite mediator needed to halt destructive conflicts such as the wars of this world.
