Primus

Primus.

Primus is the creator-god of the Transformers. An ancient and ethereal being whose origins date back to the beginnings of the universe itself, Primus is a multiversal force for good, his life force existing across multiple realities and infinite alternate universes. In each one, he is the final defense against his fallen sibling, Unicron the Chaos-Bringer.

Primus eventually transformed himself into the planet Cybertron; from its surface, his creations have risen to defend and patrol the galaxy. Within the depths of Cybertron, the mega-computer Vector Sigma serves as his internal mainframe, and a gateway for select Transformers to access his power. A portion of his lifeforce resides within the Matrix, which often determines the leader of the Autobots. Prophecies of a war to come were written down in his holy covenant as well. The spark of each Transformer is a small piece of Primus's essence, and together they form his lifeforce, the AllSpark.

Though wise and powerful beyond measure, Primus is neither infallible nor without weakness. At times he has been deceived by mere mortals, has made miscalculations which jeopardized all of existence, and has been betrayed by one of his earliest creations. Indeed, even the intended agents of his grand plan, the Transformers, have all too frequently become mired in endless civil war. Still, in most realities he has managed to hold the line against Unicron and other threats, either directly or through his innumerable children, the Transformers.

12 Facts[]

  • Primus is the essence of all that is good in the Transformers Multiverse. He is just, wise, noble and merciful. He was created by the mysterious entity known as "The One".
  • In opposition of him, Primus has a twin brother also created by "The One" known as Unicron. He embodies all evil and fear in the Transformers Multiverse.
  • Unfortunately, Unicron was stronger than his brother Primus. In order to gain the upper hand, Primus created the 13 original primes, led by Prima.
  • Primus and Unicron share a bond where they constantly detect the whereabouts of each other. In order to hide from Unicron and protect his Transformers creations, Primus transformed into Cybertron itself and his essence is contained in the planet's core.
  • The only other known relic to contain Primus' essence and power is the Matrix of Leadership, which grants its user immense power and wisdom.
  • Megatron once forced Primus to enter a deep slumber state when he infected Cybertron's core with Dark Energon (Unicron's blood), effectively killing the Planet.
  • Even though Primus was responsible for the creation of the Transformers race, not all Transformers believe in his existence. Some refer to Primus and Unicron as pure myth and legend.
  • While Primus himself resides in Cybertron's core, his lifeforce is contained within the AllSpark and his control systems can be accessed through the supercomputer Vector Sigma which also resides on Cybertron.
  • While Primus may appear to be extremely intelligent, he has often been easily deceived by his mere mortal Transformers creations.
  • Primus is able to be present in multiple dimensions at the same time whereas Unicron is confined to only one dimension at a time.
  • Primus and Unicron were the first to evolve the ability to transform. While he was able to convert between a giant robot form, a huge world ship and a giant planet form (known as cybertron), his twin brother Unicron was able to convert between a giant robot form and a giant planet form.
  • While Primus represents the omniversal force of good, his brother Unicron represents all forms and representations of evil in the omniverse.
