OMG OMG ONG IS THAT STARSCREAM AT THE BOTTEM
How about a double-bladed scythe?
One, to represent his double-bladed sword, his signature weapon (also represents his living a double life).
In addition, I say make it a scythe to represent his massacre of the 13 Primes, not unlike that of the Grim Reaper. After all, the death of the Thirteen is a canon event in every Transformers universe. (Oh, and here's my favorite particular double-bladed scythe for reference :D)
Another reason I chose a scythe: the blades are the shape of a cresent moon, which is the symbol of the High Priestess tarot card:
I think the High Priestess suits Sentinel more than, say, the Emperor, or Moon (ha you could also say the cresent can represent both cards!), because it doesn't just represent his double-life-betrayal, but includes a trait of his. Intuition and sensitivity.
Sentinel's intuition helped him quite a bit in the movie. He directed Airachnid to capture D-16 between him and Orion, knowing D was a greater threat to him. It also takes intuition (and a truck load of balls) to make a deal with the Quintessons-- which I'm sure no one would have done unless they were certain the Quints were more likely to win the war. He took his chance when he saw it, and didn't settle for life going back to normal for him once the war was over.
Oh and sensitivity: Sentinel is very vain and prideful, which means he doesn't take being insulted or opposed easily. Cut to him scarring D for life in the throne room :p
He also put a lot of effort into making the citizens of Iacon ADORE him, not just accept him as their leader. On one hand it can be because he wanted to 'live like a king', but I think he also wanted no room for anyone to doubt his ability to rule Iacon as just one Prime. Plus, it's not like he matches the imposing heights of the real Primes. Including Micronus, LOL.
Super serious question:
What kind of cutie marck (my little pony trait) would Sentinel Prime from Transformers One have?
It's for a task, I swear
*checks watch* Oh look, it's time to curl up into a hole and die somewhere
THIS IS AMAZING WHAT THE HELL
Okay so I'm been having this shit brewing in my head for a while and I keep coming back to it. I want to be like G1 but also a mix of other continuities as well Like TF Prime, TF One, Etc.
This is my shitty writing, I'm sorry if it's bad I just want to put it out there. If you have any ideas of what I should call this au please comment.
So Imagine this, we know that Megatron is like the leader of the decepticons right? He’s the founder so just like what if Orion becomes the leader of the decepticons instead?? Hey, it is a thought. I'm not saying he is the founder. Like how the normal story goes Orion pax the archivist meets Megatronus the gladiator, they talk about ideas and the future, Megatronous constructs the Decepticons, Orion joins him. ( I always liked the thought that Orion was one of the first decepticons of Megs group before becoming prime.)
They have two different perspectives. Orion thinks that they can peacefully have an audience with the Council/Senate (idk which one to use.) to take down and rebuild this terrible system they live by while Megatronous on the other hand thinks that they won’t listen to words and only by action (VIOLENCE!! ETC.) Btw of course this is an OpMeg so yeah they are together, there so trusting in one another and collaborate so well. Big Gladiator Mech and Lil Archivist bot
So to make this hurt, Orion was able to get an audience with the Council/Senate by the help of Sentinel “Prime”. And after convincing Megs to go see them to present his dream to dismantling the oppressive caste system. But of course the Naive Orion didn’t know that the Council/senate was using him to lure the Leader of the decepticons into a trap. They didn’t want him to spread anymore of these ‘ideas’.
(I want sentinel to be a part of this cuz I love and hate that bastard.)
Orion comes with Megatronus to speak with the senate and Sentinel.
(Okay so I'm still having Orion become prime but not like how the Senate will make him prime. Sentinel Took the matrix for himself but the Matrix doesn’t respond to him, so it is just a piece of junk without a Worthy Mech to attune to it. He still uses it as a way for publicity, it's not like citizens really knows how the Matrix works anyways.)
Orion is standing next to him as he backs up Megatronus words as he explains to them.
After this the Senate mocks him, Sentinel Truly explains to them why Lower caste should stay below them. They are born to serve the superior and die when useless, it is their Primus given purpose. Orion interrupts the Sentinel as he is shocked and angry at his words, “any bot can be more than what they're supposedly ‘born to do’.”
He uses Megatronus as an example, how he became more than a Miner, a Gladiator, he learned how to read and write, wrote literature that moved people, that anyone is the same at spark no matter their frame type. In a quick swift movement Sentinel who had enough of the words of this archivist went to silence him.
As he grabs him by the throat and throws him across the room. Megatronous tried to stop him but was then restrained by Guards. Sentinel tells them both how stupid they are. That what he says is right, that he is a prime and there not and the people will listen to him and not some nobodies. ( Basically Nuh uh Im prime so i get to do what ever da fuck i want , you poor ass bitches)(dude not even a fucken prime like brother shut the fuck up)
Orion coughs as he slowly rises up from the ground. He wobbles a bit before speaking. “You may be a prime but I won’t let you mock him or put anyone beneath you anymore. Freedom is the right of all sentient beings. They are more than their function!” As he finishes that statement a low rumbling sound emits from Sentinel's chest and a low blue glow seeps out. The Matrix recognizes a worthy mech to attune to.
Sentinel baffles tires to keep the relic inside as he panics. The relic bursts out his chest as it makes its way towards Orion. He grits his teeths in pain as he orders the guards to terminate him to keep him from getting the relic. Shots fire as Orion tries to run, the Matrix stops and floats waiting for its chosen welder to claim it.
His left arm is shot off his body and he takes a hit at his knee. Orion cries out for Megatronous as he falls to the ground again. Megatronous finally gets out of the guard's hold, tearing them apart and runs towards him. Sentinel huffs in pain as he slowly walks towards Orion who is crawling pathetically to the Matrix.
With a blaster ready he points it towards the crawling mech. “ why couldn't you be a good lil mech just stay ignorant”. As he fires Megatronous throws Sentinel taking the shot. Orion shouted in horror. Megatronus collapses as smoke emits out a gaping hole near his spark.
He bleeds heavily as Orion crawls towards his injured beloved. A large servo goes up to cradle his face “ Please, don’t leave, I can't lose you!” Orion begs. Megatronous wipes his tears as he speaks “Do not cry my little one, I will not leave you. I will always be with you my spark”. Megatronous gives him one last kiss as his frame slowly grays. “ No Nononononono, no please my champion please” he cries.
Yeah again this is just an idea of how Megatronus is going to die, I might change it, who knows. So then Orion filled with resentment towards Sentinel. Like how D-16 became Megatron due anger building up inside as he was lied to slave away his entire life, for Orion it is more of him believing in something, that there is good in people and no need to lean towards violence but to be betrayed by the system that he relied on, he experience a violation of trust. Especially when the person he idolizes hurts the ones he loves. Pretty much breaks you and how you see the world around you.
I want Orion to feel terrible, just terrible, to blame himself (which isn’t new) for the death of his beloved champion, for killing the mech that people look up to, the mech that people put their faith in, the one who united everyone to strive for more.
After Megatronous dies, he takes the Matrix and feels a sense of duty to fulfill their dream as he feels the need to redeem himself. Then he'll step up and take the role as the leader of the decepticons, he believes he needs to bear this responsibility all to himself, to punish himself for his actions for leading him to his death due to his naivety.
If you have any questions don't be afraid to send an ask, I can elaborate if you like.
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.
Oh, and the thing u mentioned about the drones! The black/gold trackers are cold constructs that never had their full coding put in, making them, well, drones. They had language and battle coding, and that was it. No self care coding (they don't have faces or mouths so I guess they're refuelled like cars or something), no socializing coding, only basic intelligence (inability to disobey a command).
Damn I just realized that Sentinel Prime literally turns grey when he dies
OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH MYYYYYY GGGGGOOOOOODDDDD WHHAAAAAAATTT
THIS MAKES IT TEN TIMES WORSE NOOO
for those of you who haven’t seen it, the transformers one screenplay was released and.

Baby boy tiny bee baby
Just saw Transformers One with my brother, I feel like my guts were ripped out and replaced with something else
People can say whatever they want, I loved it.
Ah, the Quintessons! Creators of the Transformers, cowardly traders of the universe, conquers of many worlds, and the users of the outcasted Transformers! (until the triple-changers rebelled and killed nearly every last member of their species.)
(It’s a long read under this one)
Now, let me go out of my way to say this…DO NOT SYMPATHIZE WITH THESE GUYS! NEVER EVER! ESPECIALLY IN THIS UNIVERSE!!
These guys have done many horrible things despite their cowardice, and if I catch any of you being “aw the skrunkly!” I will block you. /hj
And another note, these facts are going to be a mix of several continuites, so if it sounds familiar in some ways, that’s why.
And now, the facts!
The main leader (and still leader to modern times) is Summus [sue-muss]. He’s the oldest one (as leader and still alive), being about 32 Million years old, having been leader since before the Transformers initially rebelled, though not being alive when they were created.
When Sentinel Prime was in power, he made a deal with the Quntessions that he would send their useless workers to be their workers instead, even using their technology to block their functions to be mindless zombies for them. AND to add to that, Sentinel Prime one day was informed that a new class of transformers were being held in a lab by the rebels, and he told them to send them to the Quintessons, not even giving it a slight second glance, which would eventually be their downfall.
The Triple Changers (Octane, AstroTrain, BlitzWing, BroadSide, SandStorm, and Springer), because of their special nature to be great soliders [which Sentiel Prime WOULD HAVE FOUND OUT IF HE WASN’T SITTING ON HIS AFT ALL DAY], their odd completion that comes with having three alt-modes meant that the mind-controlling tech the Quintessons used wouldn’t affect them, but they played along as if they were to find a way out, meeting up in secret. (they only knew BlitzWing wasn’t affected at the time, because he was the quickest to break down and become what we know him as today) But, the tech does still disarm their weapons.
Quintessons are ‘born’ from red giant stars. They have technology that can predict when a nearby star will explode (goes from Red Giant to White Dwarf), so they send out a ship that puts unborn shells into the star, and once the star explodes, they’re shot all over the place and either colonize the planet/world they land on, or make their way to their home planet, Quintessa.
The power of roles in the Quintesson society are (from greatest to worst), Judges, Prosecutor, Scientist, Executioner, and Bailiff. Typically, Judges will rule their society, and tend to live the longest out of them all; But, each judge still has a latter to climb, as nobody will pass Summus until he dies. The most common Quintessons are Executioners, used mostly as soldiers and body guards for the judges.
Quintessons originally made the Transformers to be slaves and create more energon, but once Primus led a rebellion, they were banished, and a forcefield he made kept the Quinessons out for good, and even as Energon freely flowed on their planet, the Quintessons could never get to it, or would be incinerated trying.
They have a game similar to Zuma, both a in-person version as a sport, and an online version that’s basically their version of solitare.
The Seeker is still alive, but his whereabouts are unknown. Nobody has gone to find him.
They have a council of judges (5 others, but 6 with Summus) that sometimes reside over trials, but not always, to keep Summus in check and not to overuse his power as their leader. This council also has a habit of switching around servants, and they all treat their servants very differently.
THIS IS AMAZING HELLO???
@justashana @ct-cactus and whomever else ahha uhhhhhhhhhhh have this, i will be working more on it but irl is murdering me lmao so
music: "The Fine Print" by The Stupendium
edit: EUCK?? I SOMEHOW FORGOT TO MENTION THE POST IT'S REFERRING TO.
I need someone to make an animatic of Transformers One Sentinel sending a broadcast to the miners (or all of Iacon? Doesn’t matter which) to the song The Fine Print by the Stupendium.
This could also work with Darkwing-
Please guys it fits so well I can’t stop thinking about it
Here comes... The boyyyy........
They've been waiting for him for a while
Save me Megoplita... Save me...
I need more fic with them 😔
I wish I could just watch movies like a normal person but no....
I just watch Mickey 17 and all I could think about is "this could be a transformer fanfiction"
Y'all need to watch Mickey 17 its good 💖
But please listen to me as I ramble like a mad person
The movie would be "D-16" and it's about cloning cold constructs.
Mickey 17 would be D-16 tfone (the way he obey the system is just like mickey)
Mickey 18 would be D-18 but rename himself Megatron (he's full of anger and want to kill marshall)
Nasha is like a combination of tfone Orion and idw Orion (I was convinced when I see Nasha become the leader)
Marshall and ylfa, are obviously sentinel and airachnid (I immediately think of sentinel when I watch it
I can't stop putting the scene together with transformers
Like c'mon they have a revolution because of Nasha that's Orion inspiring the Autobots to fight back
Marshall branding mickey 18 that's obviously sentinel branding D16
Heck even the whole thing with Jessica and Kai can be Jetfire and starscream
There's many more
And the alien stuff can be the quintessons too...
I need to talk about this
Am I the only one still obsessed with this ship?
D-16 x bay!Optimus is precious to me...
I know canonically D16 is taller but let me see them like this
Look at them 🥰
Also I'm on my period rn and projecting this pain to them
Elita is taking it like a champ
