Dynasty of Primes

The Dynasty of Primes were six of the seven Primes and the original leaders of the Autobots. They served as the overarching protagonists of the Transformers Cinematic Universe. 
==History==
===17,000 B.C.===
The seven leaders set out into the universe seeking distant suns to harvest and create Energon by building powerful machines called Star Harvesters on the planets that were the closest to them. The Primes set out with a rule: Never destroy a planet with life. Until one of them tried to defy that rule and his name forevermore was the Fallen. He started off by ordering the construction of a Star Harvester on Earth in order to destroy both the planet and its sun. The only way to activate the machine is with a legendary key called the Matrix of Leadership, which the Fallen stole from the Primes after tricking them to come to Earth in order to do so. A great battle between the Autobots (the Primes and their soldiers) and the Decepticons (the Fallen and his soldiers) took place near the Star Harvester over possession of the Matrix. The Fallen was stronger than his brothers, despite them defeating and imprisoning him, so they had no choice but to steal back and hide it from him. In the ultimate sacrifice, they gave their lives to seal the Matrix away in a tomb that no one can find made of their very own bodies.
===2009===
After Megatron killed Sam Witwicky, the Primes communed with his spirit and appeared to him with them telling him that they have been watching him for a long long time and that he has fought for their last descendant, Optimus with courage and sacrifice, which are the virtues of a leader and because of it, he is revealed their secret: the Matrix of Leadership is not found, but earned (which is why it crumbled into dust when he laid his hands on it in their tomb). Sam is then told to return now to Optimus by merging the Matrix with his spark and it is and always has been his destiny. They then revive him and restore the Matrix so he can fulfill his destiny of resurrecting Optimus with it.
==Personalities==
Unlike their evil treacherous brother counterpart, the Fallen, the Primes cared about humanity and made a rule which is "never destroy a planet with life." They willingly sacrificed their lives to seal away the Matrix of Leadership in a tomb, soo that no one can find made from their very own bodies. They saw that Sam Witwicky was worthy with the virtues of a leader, and revealed the secret of the Matrix to him because of it after he had fought for their last descendant, Optimus with courage and sacrifice.

==Trivia==
* They were voiced by several voice actors in Revenge of the Fallen, namely Michael York, Kevin Michael Richardson, and Robin Atkin Downes.
* The Dynasty of Primes is the first adaptation of the concept of the Thirteen Primes. As such, tie-in media was torn between depicting them as made up of seven, as seen directly in the film, or thirteen. 
* Its often theorized the Dinobots along with Cybertronian Knights were implies to be their direct descendents, due to their existence far older than both Sentinel Prime and Optimus Prime.
