The Original Thirteen Primes

•History

The Original Thirteen Primes were the first lives created on Cybertron and were tasked with protecting it and creating new life on the planet by their very creator, Primus.

Eventually, after Cybertron had grown into a large bustling world of life, the Primes decided to expand Cybertron's reach and go to various planets to colonize them. While most of them were able to colonize planets and keep them thriving, there were some who wouldn't, such as Alpha Prime who never left Cybertron and then...there was Megatronus...

While most of the Primes didn't know at the time, Megatronus had encountered Primus's greatest enemy, Unicron. While Megatronus originally fought against his giant foe, he was eventually over powered and his mind became corrupted by the Chaos Bringer. When the Thirteen met next, Megatronus attacked them, along with Nonus Prime, who had also been influenced by Unicron's words. The two promised whoever joined them that they would be given immense power, strength, and anything else they wanted. This would tempt Onyx and Quintus Prime to join them, and the first Cybertronian Civil War would be born.

Years upon years of combat would follow, with some joining Prima and others joining Megatronus. The thirteenth Prime would leave during the war never to be seen again. Near the end, Prima and Megatronus met, with a few of the brothers and sister, to discuss peace, however they would not agree and Megatronus intended to leave. But the next set of events would change everything forever.

While there have been many tellings of what occurred, with some saying it was purposeful and others saying it was an accident, it boils down to this: Megatronus Prime killed their sister and his lover, Solus Prime. While the war would continue for another 2 years, Megatronus and his Minions of Unicron would eventually be defeated, with all their forces giving up, being captured, killed, or running away. Megatronus was captured and set away in a coffin in space, having yet to be seen again.

The war forever changed the Primes. Most of the ones who were alive left the planet forever, leaving only Prima, Vector Prime, and Alpha Trion on their home. Over time, most of the Primes have gone missing and a few likely have perished. Currently, the only Primes known to be alive are Vector Prime and Aloha Trion.
