Transforming Combiner Motorcycles

Description:

The Base Form is a large Motorcycle that generically resembles a Harley Davidson. It's made primarily from a Metallic Element known as Transformium, which is Invulnerable to all conventional weapons and is capable of incredible feats of Shape Shifting. The Vehicle is primarily designed for Road Combat and comes equipped with an Integrated AI including Advanced Combat Programming. The Vehicle/AI is capable of controlling its own systems; self driving, firing weapons, opening doors, etc., can adapt to conditions, protect itself and its Rider (even if the Rider is inexperienced) and will behave in the manner that an Experienced Rider would; make appropriate choices as well as anticipate choices. For its Primary Rider/Companion the AI seems to exude a sense of willingness and a comfortable companionship. It also seems to have a sense of protection for its Primary Rider. Upgrades to the AI and other Systems are possible. The Vehicle also has four (4) Weapons Pods (front, rear and one to each side) that, when combined with the Shape Shifting Tech allows for interchangeable and customizable weapons, plus the Integrated Replicator Technology allows for 'instant fabrication' of ammo or other needed expendables. The Replicator Tech is also tied in with the Shape Shifting Tech to allow for rapid self-repair of any damage to the vehicle. The vehicle is also equipped with many Multi-Sensor Arrays, inside and out, to monitor the exterior, the interior (when applicable), the rider and the vehicle itself. The sensors are capable of scanning any number of bandwidths, frequencies, etc., as well as the basic Physical Laws of the current Shadow in order to keep itself functioning via its Shape Shifting Tech. The Sensors are also capable of sending and receiving any number of communication signal types. And, when applicable, the vehicle has Full Environmental Systems; air-tight passenger cabin, air filtration system OR air tanks with Replicated air.

The Motorcycle (Base Form) is capable of being customized and altered, due to necessity or desire, via is Shape Shifting Technology. This includes, but is not limited to: changing paint color, design and decals (and other personal comforts for vanities), changing the motorcycle to look like a different make, model or style of the same motorcycle, changing the motorcycle to a very different style of motorcycle (different maker & design), changing to a different type of motorcycle (off-road, track racing, etc.) and even changing to a different type of two-wheeled vehicle of approximate mass. This also includes adding and removing features as desired; sound system, weapons, vanity lighting, etc.

The Vehicle is also capable of Shape Shifting into other Vehicle Forms, each as Customizable as the Base Form. Examples include, but are not limited to; a Trike Motorcycle or other small three-wheeled vehicle, a Small Car or Truck or similar four-wheeled vehicle, a Small Box Trailer or Very Small Camper Trailer, a Small Wagon, a Large Two-wheeled Cart. Small Boats or Water Craft, Very Small Submersibles and Very Small Air Vehicles are other possibilities for Alternate Forms. Other Engine Powered, People Powered or Drawn Vehicles are possible.

The most incredible feature of this Vehicle is its ability to Combine with the other vehicles of its Manufactured Set. This Combining allows two or more Vehicles to Combine together to form larger vehicles. The more Vehicles used, the larger the Combined Vehicle can be. Most Forms for the Combined Vehicles are larger versions of the Base Form's Alternate Forms, as well as other specialty vehicles, such as; RVs, Construction Equipment, Armored Vehicles, Tractor Truck & Trailer, Tanks, etc.

History of Transformium:

The Element known as Transformium, as it is called on the World of Earth 333 (that's what Rafe calls the World) actually comes from another World within the same Shadow, across the same Galaxy. Transformium is the Primary building block for the Sentient Robotic Shape Shifting Beings that proliferate a corner of that Galaxy. The metallic Element came to be on the World of Earth 333 when a massive Spaceship, an Arc, carrying millions of these 'Transformers' crashed into the planet. The 'Primes' of the Arc knew they were all doomed and could not save themselves, but could save the planet; the Arc Ship was so large it would be like a massive asteroid slamming into the planet, changing it forever or possibly destroying it utterly. It was decided that the Arc would be destroyed using the Energy Sources from the entire Colony of Transformers currently lying dormant within the now dead Arc Ship.

Billions of years later, the Humans of Earth 333 discovered the metal, but due to a lack of power for so long, the metal had broken down and lost its previous Form and no longer resembled pieces of giant robots, and thus the Humans were none the wiser as to the metal's Origins... nor of one of its rather unique qualities; the Element was 'alive' on some level, though not truly sentient, as well as being innately capable of Shape Shifting and holding its Form with proper energy input and programming / instruction / learning.
