Camien

Camiens are a subspecies of Cybertronians from Caminus, a moon belonging to a gas giant orbiting a dwarf star.

"On my colony, on Caminus, we were so cold, so alone. The Primes so distant. To learn one is real... alive..."

Anatomy
Camiens share a similar biology to other Cybertronians.

Powers and abilities
Camiens share many of the same abilities as other Cybertronians.

Certain Camiens known as Cityspeakers are capable of communicating with Titans, whether they be dormant or active.

Culture and society
Cut off from Cybertron and stranded on their resource-poor world, the Camiens developed a culture of conservation and careful energy husbandry. Camien warriors rely on swords instead of using consumption-heavy ranged weaponry.

Many Camiens are sorted into groups of six to represent the six sides of Solus Prime's Creation Lathe. These Torchbearers traditionally serve as an elite group of dedicated peacekeepers, travelling from town to town as their duties necessitate. When joining the group, new members adopt a distinct uniform color scheme.

Caminus' spiritual leader is a being known only as the Mistress of Flame, who the Torchbearers are servants of.

Religion
Most Camiens are fanatically devoted to the lineage of the Primes, viewing even modern Primes as gods to be worshipped and followed without question. They are generally associated with Solus Prime, who they extol as the spiritual progenitor of Caminus and the greatest of the Primes.

Caminus hosts a flourishing artistic and spiritual community, in spite of its straitened infrastructure. Chief among them is the Way of Flame, a religion headed by the Mistress of Flame that deifies the lineage of the Primes.

In the absence of any actual Prime to issue commands, the Forgefire Parliament oversees the colony. Even so, the Parliament is quick to default to the commands of either the Mistress of Flame or a Prime should the opportunity arise.
