{{Quote|During Cybertron's Golden Age of peace, an elite few served as the guardians of Cybertron's accumulated knowledge. Among these data clerks was Optronix. A low-level operator who sought to replace those above him, Optronix turned his research skills to finding methods of manipulation. Eventually, he rose to prominence; however, when his activities were uncovered, he was removed from service and left purposeless. Deep in his Ember though, Optronix believed he was best fit to lead Cybertron. He hungered for power and through his studies, he determined that military might was the only way to achieve his goals. Preaching a philosophy of destruction and conquest, he eventually began re-engineering his body as well as taking on a new name: Optimus Prime. He then began refashioning the bodies of his followers into weapons as well. Armed with weapons and a uniting philosophy, he declared his warriors autonomous from the rest of Cybertron and thus named them the Autobots!}} | {{Quote|During Cybertron's Golden Age of peace, an elite few served as the guardians of Cybertron's accumulated knowledge.

{{quote|During a major offensive in Sector 17 of the Mirtonian Quadrant, Optimus Prime was severely damaged and his Laser Core almost extinguished. Abandoned by his own warriors, he managed to drag himself to a CR Chamber in a remote outpost nearby. With the help of a local tech, he was able to fashion a new, upgraded body. Reborn, this body not only provided Optimus with more strength and faster processing power but it also affected his psyche making him believe that he was indestructible and the true embodiment of power. Returning to Polyhex, he destroyed several of the warriors who had abandoned him and re-established his role as leader. In addition to upgrading his body, Optimus also updated his weaponry by fashioning a sword out of the mysterious "G-Metal", allowing him to slice through enemies in a single blow.}} | |||
