| '''Alchemist Prime''' arose from [[Primus]] with a deep connection to the elements, and even among the [[Thirteen]] his powers straddle the line between science and mysticism. Alchemist's natural intelligence and curiosity are augmented by his personal [[Artifacts of the Primes|artifact]], the [[Lenses]]; permanently affixed into his [[optic]]s, they allow him to perceive the physical and spiritual cycles of the universe in equal measure. Always in tune with creation, Alchemist's constant quest to understand the mechanisms of change means that he thinks of himself as a mere student of the natural world. Above all, Alchemist trusts his instincts and natural intuition, which rarely lead him wrong.

| Alchemist Prime possesses the ability to transmute metals and temporarily alter the properties of any given objects. While these powerful abilities make him an unpredictable foe on the battlefield, Alchemist is one of the most even-tempered and gentle members of the Thirteen, with a friendly, sympathetic nature that makes easy to be around; among the Thirteen, his closest allies include [[Alpha Trion (WFC)|Alpha Trion]], [[Vector Prime]], and [[Nexus Prime]]. Alchemist Prime's mastery of chemistry extends to various intoxicating beverages, which he has a professed fondness for. Like the other members of the Thirteen, Alchemist was once a [[multiversal singularity]] who existed as one being across all space and time, but that is [[Shroud|no longer the case]].

| | |
| While most members of the [[Thirteen]] dispersed across space and time after their great schism, Alchemist opted to remain on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] for a time, quietly guiding the progress of the earliest [[Transformer]] civilizations. Indeed, rumors swirl that Alchemist may still walk Cybertron after untold millennia, disguised as [[Maccadam|a humble bartender]].

| As one of the Thirteen, Alchemist Prime's chosen discipline was unknown, but he was a respected ally of [[Alpha Trion (WFC)|Alpha Trion]]. After [[The Fallen|Megatronus]] murdered [[Solus Prime]] and [[Liege Maximo]] made his bid for power, the Thirteen began to separate. Alchemist Prime and Alpha Trion remained behind on Cybertron and orchestrated the beginnings of Cybertronian civilization. Once the process was well underway, Alchemist headed off into space to hunt down the renegade Liege Maximo. Alpha Trion never heard from him again, but believed in the core of his spark that Alchemist Prime had succeeded. {{storylink|Transformers: Exiles|Exiles}}

| According to legend, at the beginning of time, [[Unicron]] and [[Primus]] battled each other for eons, with neither side remaining victorious for long. Till, that is, Primus created the [[Thirteen]]. These Thirteen defeated Unicron and cast him into space. {{storylink|One Shall Rise, Part 1}}

| In 2014, while mocking [[Scoop (G1)|Scoop]]'s religion, [[Galvatron (G1)/IDW Generation 1 continuity|Galvatron]] claimed that Alchemist Prime dreamt up the idea of "The Chosen One" after consuming twelve drams of rancid [[Engex]]. {{storylink|Onyx Interface Part One: Signals, Calls, and Marches|Signals, Calls, and Marches}}

| In some of [[Vector Prime]]'s memories during the Thirteen's time in Greece on ancient Earth, Alchemist Prime used a [[holomatter]] avatar which, combined with his fondness for the imbibing concoctions of all sorts, inspired the myth of Dionysus. {{storylink|Ask Vector Prime|Ask Vector Prime, 20/7/15}} Vector recalled how he had nothing but happy times with Alchemist in these days. {{storylink|Ask Vector Prime|Ask Vector Prime, 8/8/15}} At another time, Vector and Alchemist together defended the planet [[Karn]] against the [[Swarm (G2)|Swarm]]. {{storylink|Ask Vector Prime|Ask Vector Prime, 14/8/15}} According to Vector, some on Cybertron say Alchemist walks the planet still, pretending to be a simple publican [[Maccadam's Old Oil House|whose pub is a place of peace in wartime]]. {{storylink|Ask Vector Prime|Ask Vector Prime, 14/6/15}}

| As [[Nexus Prime]] united the [[Terminus Blade]] and the [[Star Saber (Prima)|Star Saber]], he felt his brothers among the [[Thirteen]] being drawn to the event. Time and space were rewritten that day, as the walls between the multiverse grew stronger and less permeable. A consequence of strengthening the multiverse was that Alchemist Prime and the original Thirteen could no longer continue to exist as multiversal singularities, and so they were splintered and scattered throughout the multiverse. And so the one became many, sentient reoccurring themes each appearing in their own way, if at all, in all the worlds of the multiverse. {{storylink|Out of the One, Many}}
