Well then, here we are! We have:

Prima: the classic leader of the 13 (Zeta is leader instead in TFOne.) First Matrix-bearer, wields the Star Saber which depending on the continuity is a minicon trio team that turns into a giant sword. Dunno about TFOne.

Solus: the first femme Cybertronian. Best blacksmith there ever was and forged all of the Prime's weapons & gadgets including her own, named uh the Forge. It's a giant mallet.

Vector: The only Prime & Cybertronian with the ability to time travel (and go across the universe faster than any train.) He did this with his gadget, the Blades of Time, which are not actually blades but an hourglass-thingy that he used to travel through time/the universe.

Alchemist: while Vector could *travel* across time, Alchemist could *see* across time. He also was an alchemist (not as in science exactly), learning all about the "elements of the natural world". He had his gadget, the Lenses, which he used to see this shit. These Lenses also allowed him to see misarranged flashes of the future.

Alpha Trion: Vector traveled time and Alchemist saw across time, but Alpha just wrote it down for the history books. His main job besides recording history was to also record the future, I'm assuming as prophecies. I infer he did not have this gift in TFOne, or else they'd have killed Sentinel ages ago :3.

Amalgamous: this guy owned the most nuclear-powered, super-duper-charged t-cog in the history of Cybertron. Guy could transform into ANYTHING! Infinite alt-modes! Just imagine the possibilities! Probably why he was the prankster of the Primes. This particular rare type of Transformer is called a Shifter. Other shifters have less ease doing it.

Micronus: the first Combiner team, only this guy was 110% hivemind. 5 tiny clones that were entirely linked whether combined or not. With time Combiner teams had to be individual mechs that were their own persons. Shame :p His gadget was the Creation Stone, not to be confused with the Emberstone, since the Creation stone created pocket dimensions and the Emberstone created life.

Quintus: This is the guy who owned the Emberstone. One of their creations is the Quintessons, which obviously backfired really really bad and was a horrible horrible idea, apparently. Other creations include the Maximals (cybertronians with animal alt modes only), Insecticons, and Sharkicons. He also was a *real* scientist.

Onyx: the first Cybertronian to have an animal alt-mode. He was a shaman & protector of nature. Using his Trypyche Mask, he could see others' auras or into their souls, different times (similar to Alchemist), and even different afterlifes across the universe.

Liege Maximo: Depends across iterations, but he was the least friendly of the Primes; didn't trust anyone, prioritized himself above others. His weapon was the Liegan Darts, which were just really strong toxin darts. He was also a master manipulator through speech, just like Megatron. He took command over the ancient Maximals that his brother Quintus created.

Megatronus/The Fallen: in some iterations he is as bad as Liege Maximo, but takes it a step further by outright turning against his brothers. His weapon was the Requim Blaster. He *is* known for his strength-- but Prima is greatest. But in TFOne hes a good boy 💖💖💖💖💖

And lastly, The Thirteenth: Hasbro REFUSES to give the Thirteenth a solid name, so he is either one of two people in every iteration:

A. Zeta Prime, a dude made up because of the absence of a solid name. He doesn't have much going on with him, but he serves as leader of the Primes in TFOne. In a few iterations he's a jerk.

B. The first life of Optimus Prime. Meaning that *our* Optimus Prime is the Thirteenth reborn.

Or C, he doesn't freakin' exist and there's actually only 12 Primes.

✨️~Thank you for coming to my TedTalk~✨️

Would anyone like to info dump on me about the primes?

I know basically a lot of stuff when it comes to the mains, like bumblebee, Optimus, ratchet, megaton, etc.

But I know nothing about primes. So if that’s anyone’s hyper fixation and wanna info dumb… info dump to me please, I’d love to know.

Tf1 and tfp have me in a chokehold rn.
