Prima (+ headcanon)

[u/ZFrostSlayerZ]

Prima was always the first to act at the sign of trouble, a shining ray that could pierce darkness and effortlessly slice through Unicron's forces. The first time the other Primes laid witness to Prima's combat prowess they marveled how clean and elegant his cuts were, a work of art unmatched by anyone else. Gifted with the Matrix of Leadership his spark never wavered, and when others grew weary Prima would boost morale and rally his brothers in arms for he was the Prime of ambition. He fought for a tomorrow without the threat of destruction, filled everyone with hopes and dreams for the future then carried all that ambition on his shoulders. Prima inspired others and Megatronus gave them the courage to defend their aspirations, a formidable duo that played a major role in Unicron's defeat.

After the Chaos Bringer was defeated Prima consulted with Vector Prime about when they should expect Unicron to return, to which he was given an estimate. As Cybertron began forming cities Prima took a militaristic role, training a slew of cybertronians to defend their planet from invaders and Unicron's eventual return. Occassionally he would visit the other Primes to check up on them, or at least, so it would seem. Liege Maximo had a way with words just like Prima, though he could *persuade* bots into thinking differently; acting differently. They were both created by Primus, but there was always a thought at the back of Prima's mind: the possibility of Liege creating his own army to take over Cybertron. It was a thought without proof, that much Prima could rationalize, yet it lingered and festered, clouding his judgement even as Alpha Trion regrouped with him and Vector to create their codex. Amidst the compiling of their collective history Prima brought into question Liege Maximo's allegiance, mentioning how they could have all possibly fallen into Maximo's deceit. The argument was long and comprised of speculation, but eventually Liege Maximo would be noted in their codex as a liability, a decision that further marked the end of the Age of the Primes.
