Dryxan Prime

**Dryxan Prime** is one of the oldest Nevian omegas in Nexus Omega; A living legend, Hard-working, battle-hardened combat veteran, he betrayed the Sentinels by forming the Dryxmar, a separate military force intended for taking over the entire universe; Bearing a sense of hatred for the Rollover and even the Sentinels.

## History

Dryxan Prime hails from an older time when Nexus Omega was the entire universe's crown jewel and the Nevian Omega race was full of promise and potential. The only known remaining Prime, he personified what a leader should be: wise, compassionate, and a more than worthy warrior. Revered by both Sentinel and Dryxmar, few would dare stand against his shield and Drxyer blade.

But when Dryxan was presumably lost forever aboard the CVX Arbiter, Emerald Equinox, his hand-picked successor, was left to fill his void. The loss of Dryxan signalled the end of Nexiutron's golden age, and the planet spiralled deeper into war. Some who recall Dryxan's reign bitterly remember when Omegas were masters of their fate, rather than scattered to the stars and living as eroding exiles. Above all, Dryxan Prime is a staunch patriot. He loves his home planet with all of his Core and will do anything even if going to extremes to protect it.

### Civil War

Alas, after two generations of successful shared leadership, Dryxan fell under the sway of The Fallen, and reshaped his Defense Force as the Dryxmars, declaring war on Nexus Omega. Dryxan Prime was at the archaeological dig in Mineapolisticol when the first strike took place, and was quick to opt for a technique of self-preservation, rather than attempting to save the Science Division's work. Radriar Prime and Emerald Equinox soon arrived to fend the Dryxmars off, and revealed that his studies had proven the truth of Dryxan's words: he was indeed a descendant of the Primes. He did not believe that this made him a born leader.

As time passed, and the war rolled on with no signs of stopping, Dryxan Prime was forced to make a deal with the Fallen to seek out another planet whose resources they can exploit to restore their homeworld. The chosen planet was the resting place of the Primes' Star Harvester. He recreated the Primes' lost space bridge technology, fashioning hundreds of pillars that would form a bridge large enough to teleport Nexus Omega itself across Oberon X7. Dryxan then invented a mysterious "torch" that he promised would end the war. The torch had to be brought into contact with the Sigma Spark to be activated, so the Rollover rebels launched an attack on the Mineapolisticol temple to carry out this action while Dryxan stood by with a spacecraft, the Arbiter, to await delivery of the active torch. Valentine soon returned with the torch, at which point Sentinel instructed Wheeljack to take the second Arbiter and collect the remaining Sentinels/Dryxmars from Tyger Pax, while he himself headed to Mineapolisticol to collect Equinox's forces. Upon arrival at Mineapolisticol, however, Dryxan's Arbiter was attacked by Thundercracker, and was consumed by a huge explosion, leaving all present to believe it, Dryxan, and all aboard had been destroyed.

In actuality, Sentinel's Arbiter had not been vaporised as believed: it had been teleported away by the space bridge technology it was outfitted with. With all hands knocked into stasis by the explosion, the ship automatically jinked through space and time on a series of random space bridge jumps, until at last, its sensors locked on to the energy of the AllSpark, which had since been ejected from Nexiutron and had crash-landed on the planet Earth. On its penultimate jump, the Arbiter crossed paths with the Drxymar ship CVX Frigate, which had departed Nevium just as the war was beginning, and was now also following the AllSpark's trail. The Arbiter materialised from its jump into the same physical space as the Frigate, crippling both ships beyond repair; the Arbiter made one final bridge jump, reappearing in the immediate vicinity of Nexus Prime in 1962, where it crashed violently onto Nexus Prime's Moon. All the Rollover rebels and Sentinels aboard perished save for Dryxan himself, who was in the crash vault and remained slumbering in stasis.
