Dynasty of Primes

In Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, the original thirteen were replaced by seven characters groupally referred to as the 'Dynasty of Primes', scattered throughout the galaxy looking for planets where they could build Sun Harvesters. These Sun Harvesters, powered by the Matrix of Leadership, were capable of harvesting a sun's energy to produce Energon. The Dynasty of Primes had one rule: Sun Harvesters were not to be built on worlds containing life. The Fallen, ignoring this rule, arrived on Earth 17,000 BC and started building a new Sun Harvester with other Cybertronians. This resulted in the war between the Autobots and Decepticons, with the Fallen imprisoned by the Dynasty of Primes as they sacrificed themselves to seal the Matrix by making a cage of their own body's to seal it. When Sam temporarily dies, he sees a vision of the Dynasty and they tell him he has earned the Matrix for his courage and his determination to save Optimus and they reveal that this was always his destiny. The Dynasty then resurrects Sam, who brings back Optimus. Optimus then kills the Fallen.
