Mikesu

The Mikesu (ミケス) are a species of intelligent organics, resembling bipedal felines. They inhabit the planet Godbless, of which they appear to be the dominant species. The Transformers have knowledge of the Mikesu, as well as at least minimal knowledge about their planet.

The Mikesu are described as leading tranquil lives. Agriculture is their main industry. By harvesting and processing oranges, the Mikesu are capable of producing a high-quality oil, consumable by Maximals and Predacons. The process by which this is accomplished is mostly unseen, but is done through the use of large, manually powered machines.

As observed in other intelligent organic life forms, the Mikesu clothe themselves and stylize facial and scalp hair. Although not as technologically advanced as other species, they possess rudimentary tools that aid in their agricultural lifestyle, such as woven baskets and wheelbarrows. They also seem to be capable of constructing metallic structures, as seen in their outdoors oil "factories" Otherwise, wood seems to be the main material for the construction of structures and equipment.

Although at first startled at the sight of a flying mountain, the Mikesu were quick to accept that this was due to a divine presence inhabiting it, as an apparition of their god appeared, helping them reach this conclusion. Said god resembled an enormous winged feline. Unbeknownst to the Mikesu, however, the illusion of their god and the flying mountain, were actually the result of Angolmois Energy.

Seeing this as the perfect opportunity, the Predacon Saberback found a way to use these illusions to his advantage, forcing the Mikesu to give away their oil as offerings to "their god". Without hesitation, the Mikesu gave away any and all oil they had made, until there was no more to power their village. The Maximals soon came to the rescue, and the Mikesu's oil supply was returned to the village. Chase the Mysterious Capsule

Notes

• Mike (三さん毛もう or ミケ, pronounced "mee-keh") is the Japanese equivalent of "calico" and is often given as a name for cats with calico fur, so it's likely the origin of the Mikesu's name.
