Optimus Prime

As the awe-inspiring leader of the Autobots, **Optimus Prime** is the complete opposite of his mortal enemy/former brother in arms Megatron. The Matrix of Leadership chose him after the death of the holder, Sentinel Prime; it is the first in several heavy burdens he has forced him to bear; However, he is, at times, playful and curious, but he does show anger, frustration, and worry.

Another was his bringing of the Transformers' conflict to planet Earth. Every casualty, whether a human or Cybertronian, weighs heavily on his spark. He has never shown this side of himself to his soldiers, nor has he has never succumbed to any despair. Of course, there's Elita One, his female counterpart, and love interest.

He would sacrifice himself to save any human, fellow Autobots, or anybody under his care.

"*Freedom should be the right of all sentient beings.*" —*Optimus Prime*

## History

Before the war, Optimus Prime was originally **Orion Pax**

with a girlfriend named Ariel.

mentored by Alpha Trion.

Orion and Megatronus became close allies, almost like brothers.

Both Megatronus—now "Megatron"—and Orion Pax appeared before the High Council, and Megatron stated it was his intention to overthrow the High Council by force and instate himself as the next Prime. But it was Orion's speech that drew their attention.

Jealous, Megatron left angrily, severing all ties with Orion, Megatron returned & fatality injured him and then began his conquest of Cybertron, which resulted in countless casualties and left the Core of Cybertron itself poisoned. Orion was rebuilt.

However, when Megatron return to Cybertron

Realizing that Megatron's goal was to create an undead army, Optimus and Ratchet headed to the site of an ancient Transformer battleground on Earth, arriving just as Megatron used a sliver of Dark Energon to reanimate the corpses buried there into a Horrorcon legion.

Struggling against the detrimental effects of Dark Energon, the pair cut their way through the Horrorcons, but Megatron escaped before Optimus could get his hands on him.

After the events of Beasts & Magic, Optimus and his team search for a way to return to their reality.

They discover that Megatron and a group of his Decepticons have been summoned by accident to this world.

He states with power and authority in his voice that it keeps the Archbishop from departing the scene. "Stop!" "Not a single ounce of my spark and metal wants to understand what you have done,

Where I am but a soldier while you are nothing but a prisoner of your own twisted delusions."

Vector Prime confirms that the Fallen is returning.

I'm not strong enough to defeat the Fallen.

Vector Prime interjects. "Yes, that is true; but it's not about physical, it's spiritual strength.

"The power you need is already inside you."

His parents; Guardian Major and Beta appear before him, Overwhelming shock mixed with disbelief comes over him, and he runs into their embrace.

The spirits lend him their strength and become their hand to defeat the Fallen and turn his appearance white. He flew to the capital, where he rescued his comrades, the queen, and the citizens, from the Fallen's tender mercies and sent him flying. He takes off to resume his fight with the Fallen.

Together, Optimus and Megatron combine their blades and stab the Fallen in the spark, killing him. However, he felt that the Fallen wasn't truly gone.

He was right for the Fallen had his mind transferred to Morden's who is now a fugitive.

## Personality

courageous, selfless, compassionate, resourceful, brave, reluctant, wise, loyal, honorable, honest, intelligent, strong-willed, merciful to his enemies, and grounded. Holds a commanding presence, Unorthodox when the situation calls for it.

When he first met humans, he wasn't about to trust them at first. However, when bad humans abuse human Autobot relations or hurt any of his friends, whether human or Autobot, he is more than willing to point his blaster at them but less likely to shoot them because of his personality. Willing to partake in human events or pastimes. He loves to learn about humans and their cultures.

He is quick to defend others from criticism and hardly loses his temper, only those who truly annoy him receive his ire such as Starscream and other Individuals. Optimus is very sociable and can be a great listener. Optimus can be a gentleman or a gentle bot. When Arcee suggested they play a game, Optimus played with her. This shows that Optimus can make the most out of situations and wouldn't hesitate to play games. When Arcee held Optimus's left hand, Optimus held her hand too. This shows that Optimus can be sweet inside and out.

Optimus used casual language, wasn't entirely stoic, and hung out with his friends, even playing basketball with them at one point.

Optimus is a very brave and strong leader who fights with equal compassion and power, valuing all life and being unwilling to bow down to tyranny or terror. He has an undying commitment to leadership and peace and sees violence only as a last resort. He is straightforward, wise, and upbeat. He believes in the good of everyone, not looking down on humans and other beings as lesser as Megatron does.

He deeply regretted Megatron's turn to villainy and viewed him as a surrogate brother, partially blaming himself for Megatron spitefully starting the Great War despite it not being his fault at all.

There were times when he was willing to abandon any illusions of redeeming his foes when they crossed a certain line, especially harming those he considered family, as he is a father to those who are close to him.
