(Savannah Plains)
(Africa)

The African Savannah. A tropical grassland with warm temperatures year-round, and with its highest seasonal rainfall in the summer. The savannah is characterised by grasses and small or dispersed trees that do not form a closed canopy, allowing sunlight to reach the ground.

The elephants and zebras around the savannah grazed amongst the grass, or even drinking water at the watering hole. Birds sit in some trees nearby, as they await for their time to take flight. But then, the peace and quiet, and the calmness of the watering hole was interrupted by something approaching them, and coming to a stop with a hiss and crunch of metal.

What had approached the watering hole turned out to be a MACK Granite truck

What had approached the watering hole turned out to be a MACK Granite truck. However, this truck looks like it has seen better days, and looked more worse for wear. There were some metal jutting out of the front of the truck's grille and bumper, along with some metal up on the roof of the truck's cab, whilst some chains and cables wrapped around the front and back of the truck, along with a large tan-coloured torn-up tarpaulin being draped over the back of the truck.

Suddenly, gear shifting sounds began to emanate from the vehicle. The entire truck began to shapeshift and morph, metal parts flying about the rising form, the chains clattering across the body, transforming into a human-like shape, but at a towering height. At the same time, the tarpaulin seemed to wrap around the top half of the form, as its transformation ended.

The end result was a Cybertronian standing 37ft tall, with a broad chest, a thin waist, thick lower legs and arms, along with broad shoulders, the body looking to be a male. The chains were wrapped around the chest like it was trying to hold it together, whilst the rust seemed to fall out of spots across the body. The hands looked like that of rusty hook claws, whilst the feet were shaped like boxy elephant feet with claw-like toes on the front. A set of truck tyres could be seen on the inside of the ankles, whilst another could be seen on the back heels, with another hidden in its back. The tarpaulin seemed to wrap along the shoulders and helm of the being, covering it like a masked hunter. Speaking of the helm, it took the form of what appeared to be a helmet with two spikes sticking out from the sides of its face, along with three spikes jutting out backwards from the forehead and two spikes either side of the facial plate. The face was the scheme of a grey colour, whilst it was scarred and rusted, but the right part of its facial plate and helm, just above the optic, had been ripped apart, revealing some bare metal underneath, along with part of his brain, and the facial plate finally had red optics, along with sharp triangular shark teeth. Lastly, in the centre of the chest was what could be the faded and torn-off insignia of the Decepticons.
