Along with his fellow knights, Dragonicus once served as a guardian to Quintessa, but eventually betrayed the sorceress, stole her staff of power and fled to earth. After an apparently long period of hiding, the human Merlin convinced the knights to aid King Arthur and his people in their battle against an invading enemy. Combining with his comrades to form Dreagonstorm, they easily turned the tide of battle in Arthurs favor and soon formed a brotherhood with the human Knights of the round table. After Merlins death, they buried him, and the staff, in an ancient ship beneath the sea and Dragonicus joined his brothers in an eternal vigil over it.

Centuries later, the ship was discovered by Vivian Wembly, Merlins last descendant and Cade Yeager, who had inherited the Knights talisman, who sought the staff to stop Quintessa, who had recently brought the ruined Cybertron to Earth. After three of their brothers fell defending the staff, Dragonicus and the other knights were roused to action. They emerged on the ships hull to attack Optimus Prime, who had been bewitched by Quintessa and slain two of their comrades. They were stopped in executing Prime by Yeager, whose talisman transformed into the sword Excalibur. Recognizing the human as a member of their brotherhood, they backed down and soon rallied behind prime in his mission to save earth and destroy Quintessa.

The Last Knight film

[edit]
At least two separate Guardian Knights use the Dragonicus design; with none of them named on-screen, it is impossible to know which, if any, is the Dragonicus.

After betraying their supposed creator, Quintessa, Dragonicus and the Guardian Knights fled with her staff to Earth, in truth the dormant form of legendary Transformer Unicron. Sometime in the late 5th century, the human "wizard" Merlin stumbled upon the knights' spaceship, buried beneath the hills of England. He met the Knights and learned of their homeworld of Cybertron, but promised to keep their existence a secret from his peers.

In 484 AD, Merlin returned to the ship and made a heartfelt plea to their leader Stormreign, seeking aid for King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table in a dire battle against the Saxons. As Stormreign bestowed upon Merlin the very staff they stole from Quintessa, Dragonicus joined the other knights in forming Dragonstorm to fight alongside Arthur's men, winning them the day. In the battle's aftermath, the Knights of the Round Table forged an alliance with the Guardian Knights, beginning a heraldic order which would become known as the Order of the Witwiccans. On at least one occasion, Dragonicus charged into battle alongside Arthur's men. Sir Edmund Burton's collection included an excerpt of the Bayeux Tapestry which appeared to show Dragonicus and the other knights fighting in the Battle of Hastings in 1066 AD. Eventually, the Guardian Knights moved their ship underwater and entered a centuries-long slumber, guarding Merlin's remains and the staff Stormreign had granted to him.

In the modern day, the spaceship was located by Merlin's last descendant, and the knights awoke, Dragonicus among them. After Quintessa successfully reclaimed her staff, intending to use it to transfer energy from Earth/Unicron into the desolate Cybertron, Dragonicus and the Knights joined the Autobot mission to stop her, combining into Dragonstorm from atop the deck of the Autobot ship. As part of Dragonstorm, Dragonicus helped the Knights' Autobot and human allies by taking out enemy fighters and dropping Optimus Prime into the battlefield to vanquish Infernocus. After Quintessa and Megatron were defeated and their plan was foiled, Dragonicus and the Knights merged into Dragonstorm and departed Earth for Cybertron alongside the Autobots. The Last Knight
