Solus Prime

Among the Thirteen, **Solus Prime** is the Maker and creator. Among her friends she is much loved both for her abilities to forge nearly any device they need and for her intelligence and positive supportive personality. If she has any flaw, it is her fierce and angry temper that quickly flares up at any sign of injustice. She finds joy in creation, which is why she's particularly close friends with Nexus Prime, Micronus Prime, and Onyx Prime who revel in similar pursuits. Her closest relationship, however, is to Megatronus. The two are bound by a close devoted romantic love unique among the Thirteen, and spend much of their time online and off rejoicing in each other's presence. (The fact that both have quick fiery tempers surely won't cause issues down the road.)

All female Transformers are patterned from her template and thus are gifted with a similar processing architecture, which is the main differentiation between them and their male counterparts.

Many of the arsenal of magnificent weaponry and icons wielded by the other original Transformers are her impressive handiwork, created by an icon of her own, the Forge of Solus Prime, aided by her unique cognitive systems specializing in wide-ranging and powerful parallel processing, and manifesting in the holographic lattice known as the Creation Lathe. Her creations include:

* The Star Saber
* The Requiem Blaster
* The Chimera Stone
* The Apex Armor
* The Chaos Edge
* The Cyber Caliber
* The Quill
* The Zeonomicon
* The Terminus Blade
* The Enigma of Combination

## Biography

Solus Prime was the fourth Prime created by Primus to defeat Unicron. The builder and creator of the Thirteen, Solus opted to remain a free agent as the newborn Primes strategized for their upcoming battle against the Chaos Bringer. As part of their training, Solus created a holo-suite, which contained a virtual copy of Unicron for the Primes to train against. The Primes quickly learned that their enemy was more than capable of trouncing them in direct combat.

Eventually, the time came to launch an assault on Unicron himself. Wielding her Forge and a sword, Solus led the charge through Vector Prime's space bridge and onto Unicron himself. After The Thirteenth Prime shut down Unicron from the inside, the weary but triumphant Primes headed back to Cybertron. Unbeknownst to them all, Unicron's presence had left them all a little more susceptible to their inner darkness.

At some point before the Golden Age, The Titan Caminus would leave Cybertron and colonize a distant moon that she named after herself, founding a new Transformer civilization. This Transformer colony would develop a religion known as the Way of Flame. Based off the teachings and philosophies of Solus Prime, the religion deified the Thirteen as gods and venerated Solus Prime as the greatest among this pantheon, beliving that every Camien's spark contained a fragment of Solus's essence. On death, the devout held that all sparks returned to Solus Prime's forge, where it would be reincarnated as a new Cybertronian. The religious organization known as the Torchbearers considered themselves servants of Solus Prime and organized themselves into groups of six to commemorate Solus Prime's Creation Lathe.

## Notes

* Suns are capable of forging any raw element under the right conditions, so it's fitting that Solus Prime can forge anything *from* raw elements.
