Optimus Prime

"This Seed belongs to our Creators, whoever they are. There remains a price on my head. I endanger you all if I stay, I shall take it where it can never be found... Cade Yeager, I do not know, but whenever you look to the stars, think of one of them as my ' soul '. Defend this family, Autobot's, as they have you, defend all they can be."

- Optimus' Farewell - Optimus Prime is the the central main protagonist of the Transformers Live-Action-Film Series. The leader of the Autobot's, and throughout the galaxy known as ' '''The Last Prime'. '''

Originally a data clerk who's interests laid within Cybertronian history and mythology, until the war for Cybertron broke out where he found himself earning the position of 'Leader' and led the Autobots against Megatron's forces; as the battle eventually reduced Cybertron's structures, Optimus and his team made their way in search of the AllSpark which led them to Earth where the war continued on with the aiding of Humanity, however after the destruction of the Allspark and Cyberton's futile hope eventually led Optimus to accept Earth as their new home.

As Optimus personally knows that their home will never be safe until Megatron and his followers are destroyed once and for all, no matter the cost; a serious leader who will take whatever risk necessary to protect those that he cares about and with the hope that one day there will be peace throughout the universe.

History
Born on Cybertron

Optimus is one of the last descendants of the Seven  Prime's, though he believes that he was born naturally on his home planet Cybertron - Lockdown has lied that he was instead built by The Creators  for an unknown purpose.

He was raised by Sentinel Prime who also took care of Megatron. Thus both of them became brothers under Sentinel's guidance. Afterwards he became the leader of the Cybertronian Science Division. After Megatron learned the truth that his closets friend Optimus had discovered his heritage of Primes as well as hearing Sentinel confessing the truth to Optimus, Megatron now serving The Fallen as his apprentice and his army of Decepticons declared War upon Sentinel Primes faction Autobots. Eventually the war ravaged Cybertron cities and landscape, so in desperate attempt to save Cybertron, Sentinel Prime made a deal with Megatron behind Optimus's back. After the Ark which contained "The Pillars" abd Sentinel was presumably destroyed in the last days of the Great War. Optimus became a new leader of the Autobots and accepted his heritage as a Prime. He eventually launched AllSpark into deep space in order to stop Megatron from taking over Cybertron and countless other worlds, this dooming both Cybertron and the Cybertronian species.

In the years that passed, Optimus would always wonder how the final battle would have ended if Sentinel Prime had lead.

Optimus and his team searched across the galaxy in search of the AllSpark

Arrival On Earth
Having sent Bumble Bee to Earth where the AllSpark had been located, Optimus responded to the young Autobot's signal; upon entering the atmosphere he crash landed in a nearby forest (accidentally destroying a tree in the process). He made his way to the road's where he scanned a Peterbilt Model-379 truck as his vehicle mode, afterwards he reconnected with Bumble Bee, Jazz, Ironhide and Ratchet where he eventually met both Sam and Mikela Optimus transformed in front of the two humans and introduced himself along with his team. He then informed them of their mission of retrieving the Allspark and personally told the story of their home planet and how they were betrayed by Megatron, after concluding that Megatron would use the Allspark to raise a new army using human technology Optimus announced that Sam held the key (his grandfather's glasses) that would ensure Earth's survival.

He and his team arrived outside of Sam's house, however unaccustomed to Earth he accidentally crushed a water fountain in his garden, concerned Optimus lifted Mikela to Sam's room in order to help the latter find the glasses, growing impatient Optimus instructed Sam to continue searching where he then later hid from Sam's parents (narrowly avoiding his father sight). He remained out of sight until he caught up with Sector Seven after they had taken both Sam and Mikela hostage, Optimus intervened by tearing off the roof of the vehicle Sam and Mikela were in; Optimus then ordered the Autobots to relieved Sector Seven of their weapons

Personality and Characteristics
You just wanna die for the guy, that's leadership or brainwashing or something.

No, that's Optimus Prime

Crosshairs and Drift regarding their leader.
Optimus is a wise, brave and compassionate leader who holds a very calm and serious outlook on life, a dedicated individual who always looks out for his Autobots despite him not making jokes or laughing very often, he is incredibly loyal. He has a strong personal code of honor and responsibility which he holds closely to his spark in addition he possesses an inner sense of right and wrong.

One notable aspect of him is being a highly proud individual, as he has spoken profoundly to those around him which mostly describe him as being intelligent, thoughtful, caring, courageous, selfless and overall a likable friend; ultimately these traits make him a worthy leader and most of the Autobot's recognize this and support his leadership.

After arriving on Earth he has made it his sworn duty to protect all Autobots and of Humanity from the Decepticon's proving his selflessness and willingness to sacrifice even himself in order for others to carry on. He cares a great deal for his fellow Autobots as he angrily stated to Joshua Joyce that the Autobots remains were not the latter's property, they were his 'friends' and has personally stated that he views his autobots as his family.

Though Optimus has shown to become angered at those who inflict harm to either him or his team, he possess a ruthless side to him which he uses to face against any adversary that comes in his way, Once arriving on Earth he made a vow to never kill a Human as he believed that they were a young species whom had much to learn and he believed in their potential to understand, a vow which he eventually broke in order to save Cade and his family showing that he is willing to go towards extreme lengths to protect those that he cares about.

"Autobots, I have sworn to never kill humans. But when I find out who's behind this, HE'S GOING TO DIE." Upon humanity's decision to turn against the Autobots when all Human/Autobot alliances were terminated, it was when Optimus stumbled into a trap set by Cemetery Wind aided by Lockdown that Optimus barely managed to escape with his life, both physically and emotionally traumatized after these events, Optimus became slightly colder and aggressive and his previous regards for humanity diminished greatly viewing any human he saw as a threat.

After four years of hiding after Humanity turned against the Autobots, Optimus became extremely vulnerable and hostile as shown when he quickly pulled his gun on the Yeager Family whom he initially believed to be a threat, he became helpless in his condition to the point where he even attempted to reach his fellow Autobot's in his weakened state but was unable to, further displaying his selflessness towards the other Autobots. However he became more relaxed after Cade agreed to repair him noting that Optimus has a rather trusting nature, he later risked his life in order to protect Cade and Tessa from Cemetery Wind's soldiers led by James Savoy showing that he came to trust Cade completely.

"How many more of my kind must be sacrificed, to tone for YOUR mistakes."

He became extremely angered with KSI's experimenting on his fallen comrades especially Ratchet, angrily shouting at Joshua Joyce to which he almost nearly came close to killing, after listening to Joyce's speech Optimus became disillusioned with Humanity to the point where he nearly considered leaving Earth, questioning his own morality for protecting humanity, whom had in turn cast the Autobots out despite all that they had valiantly fought for to which Optimus believed was a 'mistake', it was until Cade managed to restore his faith in Humanity and Optimus regained his willing spirit to protect Earth.

During his time on Earth Optimus has learnt much about humanity and has related to them on rare occasions as Sam described his mistake as being human for a change also when he was badly damaged and Cade started repairing him the two had a conversation about his spark to which Cade said it could be described as his soul, this was later expressed just before Optimus left Earth in search for The Creators for he asked Cade to think of one of the stars as his 'soul'.

Deep down however, over the countless years of war and conflict on both Cybertron and Earth, Optimus would at times doubt himself and feel immense sadness for the loss of his friends especially Jazz, Ironhide and Ratchet whom he believed he could protect; often showing regret at his past decisions, the loss of Cybertron deeply affected him to the point of becoming an incredibly stern and serious leader, however despite all the pain he endured, Optimus would continue to fight for what he believed was right and never gave up on himself showing great determination and commitment as a warrior, so much that he would even travel in search for The Creators to understand who and what his purpose was in the universe.

Optimus during his fight with Quintessa and the creators and the infernocons showed much aggression and hatred and anger and desire to kill Quintessa he comes very close to defeating them but fails when quintessa started tormenting him with vision's of his past as Nemesis prime and with the murder of sentinel prime and the fallen. bumblebee and Cade and Tessa and Shane and Sam and Mikela and seeing how ratchet accutaly die and ironhide and hound, crosshairs N.E.S.T and Epps and Lennox , seeing Drift and arcees and metroplex and zeta and jetfire. Grimlock and the dinobots dead as bee's voice tells him he should've done more to save them as Optimus watched megatron and the decpticons and infernocons and the creators destroying all life on earth. Quintessa having chained Optimus up with the creators judging him in a court trying show him his friends dying. Quintessa then starts to shoot for Optimus chest infected him with dark energon Optimus was able to resist it as he fought hard against infernocus and the guardians knights of Quintessa and slaughtered them except for infernocus then Quintessa made him stare at the statue of himself as Quintessa told him of his past but Optimus still refused and fought with anger and hatred toward the quintessons until Quintessa stabbed him with his sword infecting his head with the hate plague that the sword that he pulled from the knights termonus and that the entire ship was infected and infected him which was revealed by Quintessa to be revealed to be his sword as her guardian and her humble survent to slay the beasts and the knights of iacon as she showed him that he was a monster in gladiator pits to kill the knights of cybertron and Optimus shocked by this revaluation  still refused his dark past as he did when lockdown told him he was built but couldn't refuse it any more when quintessa showed him an image of his friends dying Optimus knew there was no other way out of this for him. But before that Optimus considered he would rather die then be quintessa's pet Quintessa deeply considered his answered and proceeded to electrocute him until she revealed that is he would'nt join her then she will kill his friends Optimus now said yes and Quintessa tells him to destroy unicron knowing that unicron is the end of everything and the end of the universe Optimus offered a different solution to stop unicron from rising from the earth with out killing the humans and to relocate the humans and evacuation the entire population and to give everyone time to escape. Quintessa revealed she lied and Optimus attempted to kill her buy grabbing her in a bear hug trying to crush her under his strength while at the same time trying to get the infection of the hate off his face. But Quintessa electrocuted him with much dark energon as possible and lied that she plans to kill unicron and she told Optimus to go back in time to the when the creators destroyed the dinasours to build unicron back with the lnfernocs. When he was killing the Quintessa worship knights while he was able to control the dark energon while helping the autobots search for Excalibur and Stonehenge which was the omega lock. Which also needed the rebuil energon harvester and the forge of souls prime to "restore cybertron". When he was under quintessa's control to kill the autobots he couldn't bring himself to kill bee or Cade because Cade had Excalibur and was guiding Optimus back to the light as bumblebee, Optimus was hesitant to kill Vivian when he ordered the staff to be handed over but the restored voiced of the rechristened bumblebee now known as Goldimus prime was able to guide Optimus back to the light. As well the trials of redemption of dragonstorm to train the dark energon so it can be used agasint the decpticons and the infernocons and quintessa's knight and steelbane and Unicron and megaton this getting the silver knight upgrade to be impervious to the dark energons's effects by grabbing megatron's axe and shield gun and getting the red infection of hate on the right side of his face but managing to control the infection for good. Knowing that they had to use Quintus prime's time ship to go back to the dinasour age to stop unicron Optimus knew it was the only way to save earth and cybertron like it was in transformers prime continuty. After undoing quintessa and the creators' plans in the past and when the autobots were betrayed by humans, the deaths of rathect and leadfoot, destroying unicron's core in the past so they can destroy him in the present and successed in doing so and destroying megatron and Quintessa and the quintessons and the decpticons and steelbane even costing Optimus his life in the end to save goldimus and Cade, Optimus past the matrix of leadership to bumblebee as he was dying after they won the war against Quintessa and the quintessons and megatron and decpticons , Optimus' last words to bumblebee was. I'll always be with you and you can always find me in the matrix with me and the other Primes till all are one. Which bumblebee accepted the mantel of as prime after optimus died.

Sentinel Prime
'"Never mourn the past young warrior, thanks to you our race has survived." '

Sentinel advising Optimus never to doubt himself.
Sentinel Prime was Optimus' mentor back on Cybertron, Sentinel taught him very valuable knowledge and wise teachings even Optimus personally stated to him "you were the one who taught me freedom is everyone's right", Optimus looked up to him and highly respected Sentinel for his wisdom, intelligence, courage and leadership; these many attributes were then passed down to Optimus himself, Sentinel was by far Optimus' greatest influence that he had in his life and most likely viewed him as a father figure. During the final battle of Cybertron when Sentinel's ship the Ark Optimus personally witnessed the ship escape Cybertron only to be shot down, despite his mentor's assumed fate, Optimus managed to lead the Autobot's in the final battle against the Decepticon's, however as time went on Optimus would always wonder how the outcome of the war would have played out if Sentinel was there.

Upon learning of the Ark crash landing on the moon, Optimus travelled to the planet on the Xathium accompanied by Ratchet, when the two entered the wrecked ship he activated the release switch opening a secret compartment which contained Sentinel in deep stasis Optimus held his body and stated "''You're coming home Old friend." ''After returning to NEST Optimus with the hope of bringing his mentor back used the Matrix Of Leadership to restore his life-force upon placing the Matrix in his spark Sentinel immediately attacked him believing him to be a threat until the mood settled down and Optimus explained that the war was lost and how they had allied themselves with humanity.

Optimus then took Sentinel out for a drive with Sentinel commenting on the beauty the planet had, almost comparing it to Cybertron before the war, Optimus then stated to him he always wondered if Sentinel Prime had lead the Autobot's in the final battle on Cybertron instead of himself, (showing a hint of doubt in his voice) Sentinel however was proud of him and simply told him not to mourn the past and that the Autobot's had survived because of him, Optimus kneeled before him and offered the Matrix declaring that it was Sentinel's right to become leader again, Sentinel however believed himself too green for Earth and that he had much to learn about humanity and told Optimus he was his teacher from now on.

Tragically once Sentinel revealed his treachery by killing Ironhide, the rogue Autobot then took possession of the five pillars, Optimus arrived at the scene and was shocked at what his former mentor had done. Optimus then journeyed to Washington D.C but arrived too late, despite attempting to stop Sentinel from activating the pillars, Optimus tackled Sentinel shockingly asking him why, with Sentinel telling him they could restore Cybertron only by joining the Deception's, and that Optimus was lost noting that humanity thought of them as simple machines where as Seninel believed themselves to be god's. Optimus came to despise Sentinel for his harsh actions and views towards humanity as well as killing Ironhide (his best friend), Senitnel stated he was lucky he didn't kill his student and said he would understand in time, Optimus only remarked "It's not over."

Later on in Chicago Optimus managed to destroy the command pillar much to Sentinel's shock, Optimus demanded his mentor to come down from the building and face him, Sentinel noted to the latter that he had forgotten his place, stating that he brought Cybertron back and questioned why Optimus still fought for humanity, Optimus reminded him of his teachings and the two fought each other for a prolonged fight. Whilst fighting Sentinel said that while Optimus was brave he could never make any hard decisions and proceeded to cut Optimu's arm off, Optimus pleaded for him only to be pushed aside with Sentinel nearly killing him; Megatron intervened afterwards after the latter's death Optimus approached Sentinel which he attempted to justify his actions, stating that he only wanted their race to survive; Optimus then said that Sentinel didn't betray him, and that he had in fact betrayed himself despite Sentinel protesting Optimus killed him with Megatron's plasma gun, Optimus was deeply saddened by his mentor's death (throwing the weapon aside in shame).

Though Optimus Prime was saddened with Sentinel's betrayal, he would always remember his mentor's past wisdom and use his teachings to help him distinguish right from wrong.

Megatron
'"Where you see WEAKNESS, I see STRENGTH." '- Optimus to Megatron

Originally back on Cybertron, Optimus and Megatron were close allies whose ideals and interests became intertwined, acting almost like brothers, however it was until Megatron's ideals became corrupted which ultimately led his former brother-in-arms to commencing war on Cybertron which resulted in the deaths of countless Cybertronians, Optimus was shocked and realized the Megatron he once knew perished a long time ago and became his arch nemesis. While Optimus held slight content for him, Megatron simply showed a mild respect for his former brother-in-arms, ultimately Megatron had become the polar opposite of who Optimus was, whom displayed kindness, bravery and selflessness whereas Megatron was Cold, Aggressive and Tyrannical.

Upon arriving on Earth the two encountered each other and immediately battled to the death, Megatron's opinion of humanity whom he came to view the inhabits of the planet 'disgusting' and chatistied Optimus for protecting them viewing them as 'weak' to which he added through protecting the weak was the reason Optimus never prevailed. Optimus however believed that the humans deserved to decide their fate in spite of Megatron's claims and engaged him to protect humanity from his destructive actions. It was when Optimus fought against him that he was accepting of his impending fate and that if he could not defeat Megatron he would ultimately sacrifice himself to destroy the Cube so that Megatron could never use the device's power for his own will.

However Megatron was eventually defeated through the Cube's power by Sam Witwicky, with the battle over Optimus stood over Megatron's corpse and displayed sadness at Megatron's demise saying "You left me no choice brother"

Ironhide
"You and I have been through too much together to warrant any apologies old friend." - Optimus forgiving Ironhide. Of all the Autobot's stationed on Earth, Ironhide has known Optimus for the longest period of time, the two have a strong friendship as Optimus often refers to him as 'Old friend' though the two have shown to bicker at times especially with Ironhide's rather explosive and destructive nature Optimus does his best to keep his friend in check. Despite these faults the two have proven to be a great team as demonstrated after the two dispatched Demolisher in Shanghai; Ironhide showed a great deal of respect for his leader with Optimus returning that trust, after Jazz's death, Ironhide became his tempory second-in-command in ultra Magnus' absuns, symbolising the brotherly-like bond the two shared.

After Optimus' death and Director Theodore Galloway shut off Autobot operations while the other Autobot's suggested leaving Earth, Ironhide firmly believed Optimus would not want that, he became relieved by his leader's revival and encouraged him to stand against the Fallen. The two stood by each other as the years passed on Earth and the two engaged in numerous battles against the Decepticons. Optimus was deeply saddened by Ironhide's death, where he later avenged his oldest friend by killing Sentinel Prime.

Ratchet
Ratchet is one of Optimus' oldest friends, the two have a good relationship where Ratchet deeply respects his leader's bravery and Optimus in turn considers Ratchet a great medic as well as a loyal friend. Because Ratchet is more calm and intelligent, Optimus has a level of personal trust in Ratchet making him one of his closest lieutenants (similar to that of Ironhide only less rowdy.) After arriving on Earth Ratchet accompanied his leader in order to retrieve the Cube in order to restore Cybertron, later Ratchet showed concern for Optimus when the latter willingly spoke his intention of sacrificing himself in order to destroy the Allspark.And also joined forces with bumblebee and his old ally jetfire and ironhide during the war for cybertron.

The two continued to fight at each others side during their battles with the Decepticons on Earth. Optimus was deeply saddened by Ratchet's death, upon watching the footage of Ratchet's dissembled head, Optimus became enraged so much that he led a direct assault on KSI for what they had done to his friend; Optimus later avenged him fallen friend by Killing Lockdown, he found peace afterwards saying "Honour to the end". And hoping there's a way to bring him back by using the seed the matrix of leadership.

Bumble Bee
"Bumble Bee is a brave soldier." - Optimus regarding Bumble Bee

Bumble Bee is one of Optimus Prime's closest friend's, the two have fought side by side together in many battles and the two have proven to be a great team, though Optimus has often scolded him for his childish personality this can referenced as Optimus related to Cade Yeager about his daughter's insubordinate behavior stating "Yeah I went through that with Bumble Bee". Despite this Optimus has seen great potential in the young warrior as he has proven his skill numerous times with Optimus taking pride in Bumble Bee's accomplishment's.

When Bumble Bee was captured by Sector Seven, Optimus could not make any attempt to rescue his friend without inflicting harm upon the humans, later when the team devised their next move Optimus firmly told the Autobots that Bumble Bee would want them to complete their mission and noted him as a brave soldier. To his relief Bumble Bee made his way out from Sector Seven and rejoined the group. After the battle Bumble Bee regained his voice and asked permission to speak to which Optimus replied "Permission granted, old friend". Over the years on their time on Earth the two have remained loyal and constantly support and look out for each other which makes them a powerful team. Ultimately Bumble Bee has looked up to him as a great influence and strongly respects his leadership, Optimus has shown to act like a Father figure to him and personally treats Bumble Bee like a son.And sees a lot of ponetial in him to become a prime like him and one day pass down the matrix to him when he is ready to take up the mantel and the legacy of the primes and uphold the responsibilitis of the primes and become the new leader of the autobots and lead a new generation of heroes to victory against the decpticons in optimus' honour

Jazz
'"Aww... Jazz, we lost a great comrade, but gained new ones." '- Optimus honouring Jazz Optimus and Jazz have a strong friendship with Jazz being his first lieutenant, the two constantly looked out for each other and the two were close friends. Jazz joined his leader in search for the Allspark on Earth; however Jazz questioned Optimus's not attempting to rescue Bumble Bee from Sector Seven stating that ''it wasn't right. ''Later when Jazz again attempted to convince Optimus into rescuing Bumble Bee but Optimus believed the latter would want them to complete their mission. Jazz accompanied his leader to mission city where bravely

Optimus was deeply saddened by his death and honored his memory stating that Jazz was a brave Autobot.

Sam Witwicky
"You are my friend Sam, you always will be. - Optimus to Sam

Mikeala Banes
Though the two do not interact much Optimus cares for Mikaala's safety

William Lennox
As both are leaders have a mutual respect for each other

Robert Epps
"Gotta wonder if god made us in his image, who made him?"

Cade Yeager
'"Cade, I am in your debt." '- Optimus appreciating Cade.

When Cade purchased an old western truck, what he didn't realize was that it was Optimus in stasis, upon learning the revelation of the truck actually being a Transformer, Cade initially intended to learn more about Cybertroian technology, due to him being an inventor however upon tinkering Optimus transformed and was extremely hostile towards Cade, angrily threatening to kill him and told him to stay back. A hesitant Cade slowly approached him stating that he was in a bad condition and told him that he wanted to help and then introduced himself, Optimus after calming down revealed his name noting that he was in Cade's debt; noticing Optimus's weakened state Cade volunteered to repair him. The two bonded whilst discussing about Optimus' spark to which Cade referred to as his soul, though Optimus questioned Cade on why he was willing to help him to which Cade replied "Because you trust me to."

Once Cemetary Wind arrived at Cade's house upon hearing of them threatening to kill his daughter, Optimus stormed out of the barn in a viscous fury, attacking the soldiers for what they did to Cade and Tessa, he then instructed Cade to escape and provided cover fire for them. It is shown that Optimus and Cade have a friendship.

The Creators
"I am Optimus Prime, and this message is to my Creators. Leave Planet Earth alone, cause I'm coming for you." - Optimus's message to The Creators

Prior to the events of the series, Optimus had no knowledge regarding the Creators or their motives. It was until Optimus came into contact with Lockdown whom told the Autobot Leader of their existence, The Creators had sent the Bounty Hunter in order to capture Optimus Prime for reasons currently unknown. Lockdown states that The Creators had built Optimus for an unknown purpose and were evidently keen to bring him back to their power but their plan ultimately failed when Optimus managed to kill Lockdown. Aware of their impending threat Optimus knew that The Creator would not stop until they found him, thus the Autobot leader left Earth in search for the ancient race where he sent a message throughout the galaxy warning them to leave Earth and its inhabits alone and that Optimus would come for them and kill them.3 years later Optimus would fight the creators minions the infernocons and would meet their leader Quintessa whom will turn out to be souls prime whom wants vengeance for Optimus killing sentinel prime and the fallen which turns out to be her love interest and optould fight with so much anger and aggression toward his makers but they would drive the prime into madness as they tortured Optimus by showing him Cade and sam and mikela and Tessa and Shane and bumblebee and ratchet ironhide and jazz and sideswipe and the rest of the autobots die while the decpticons and the creators destroy the earth and have unicron rise from earth's core and destroying earth from the inside out and Optimus would fight hard aganinst them as he fought bravely but they would poison Optimus with the red infection with the infection of the sword that he grabbed from his ship that was infected by the infection of hate that they revealed that the sword he now carries was once his and poison Optimus' mind with dark energon transforming him into nemesis prime and sent Optimus back to earth in order to retrieve all cybertroian artifacts and the staff of quintesssa and quintess prime's time ship to bring unicron back to earth but this guise will not last long because of the help of goldimus prime formerly bumblebee and Cade Yeager and Vivian Wembley and dragonstorm through the trials of redemption and going back in time and undoing the deaths of ratchet and ironhide and jazz and leadfoot and the unicron's recontruction and destroying him before he is awakened and Optimus sacrificed himself and destroyed the creators and megatron and steelbane and and the infernocus and quintessa and the fallen and the decpticons by harnessing the power of the matrix and Optimus saved the universe by costing his own life in order to do so ending the creators rule over the universe
