| '''Megatronus''' was a member of the [[Thirteen]]. Rightfully proud of his power and unwaveringly loyal to his creator [[Primus]], Megatronus though of himself as a warrior first and foremost. At the same time, his dark powers and conflicted nature meant that he was rarely at peace with himself. His artifact of power—the deadly [[Requiem Blaster (Prime)|Requiem Blaster]]—used stellar fusion as an energy conduit, exponentially increasing his already destructive powers. Viewing himself as an outsider, he frequently butted heads with the warrior of light [[Prima (WFC)|Prima]], to the point where even his closest allies among the Thirteen viewed him as an unpredictable and unstable presence. In spite of this, he struck up a close friendship with [[Solus Prime]], which eventually blossomed into something deeper. Megatronus's private insecurities and hidden fears soon gave way to darker emotions.

| | |
| Megatronus's unchecked emotions would soon have dire repercussions for the rest of the Thirteen. In a fit of rage, Megatronus finally turned on his former allies, killing Solus Prime and forever shattering the unity of the remaining primes. Soon afterwards, he re-christened himself '''the Fallen''', and exiled himself from [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]].

| Megatronus was the twelfth Prime created by Primus to defeat [[Unicron]]. To aid him in this task, he requested that a blaster be made for him by Solus Prime. She reluctantly agreed, and the Requiem Blaster was born. Megatronus soon fell in love with the Prime. With Unicron defeated Megatronus and his fellow companions felt that Unicron's evil had rubbed off on them; a fact that he strangely appeared to revel in. Later, he became friends with Liege Maximo who secretly plotted his downfall. Unwittingly playing into a scheme created by Maximo, Megatronus murdered his love Solus Prime. Although the killing was more of an accident than intentional, Megatronus felt terrible for his actions. He then dubbed himself "The Fallen" and went into exile in space, never to be seen again. {{storylink|Transformers: The Covenant of Primus|The Covenant of Primus}}

| Megatronus conceived the idea of the [[Requiem Blaster (Prime)|Requiem Blaster]], a weapon so powerful that it dwarfed all other weapons in existence. With great reluctance, [[Solus Prime (Prime)|Solus Prime]] agreed to forge the weapon for Megatronus, and even then only after Megatronus convinced other members of the Thirteen to petition her on his behalf as well. Even after the weapon was completed, Solus Prime showed great reluctance in allowing it to remain in existence. After demonstrating its awesome power to the Thirteen, she asked for a vote as to whether the Requiem Blaster should be destroyed. Megatronus led the group who voted in favor of retaining the Blaster, and they won by the slimmest of margins, 7-to-6.

| At some later date, Megatronus killed Solus Prime in a fit of rage, and became the Fallen, forever more. The reason for the murder is not fully known at this point, although Solus did favor [[Nexus Prime (Prime)|Nexus Prime]] over others in the Thirteen, a fact that had stirred jealousy in Megatronus in the past. Though a terrible thing, [[Vector Prime (WFC)|Vector Prime]] considered the Fallen lashing out in a moment of anger forgivable over [[Liege Maximo (WFC)|Liege Maximo]]'s active plotting. {{storylink|Transformers: Exiles|Exiles}}

| [[Megatron (WFC)|Megatron]], who took his name to inspire fear, took a favorable view of the Fallen, considering him the one member of the Thirteen who refused to bow down to the others and would carve his own destiny. {{storylink|Transformers: Exodus|Exodus}}

| According to legend, at the beginning of time, Unicron and Primus battled each other for eons, with neither side remaining victorious for long. Until, that is, Primus created the [[Thirteen]]. These Thirteen defeated Unicron and cast him into space. {{storylink|One Shall Rise, Part 1}} At some point statues of Megatronus and his brothers were made. They were placed in the chamber of the High Council. A [[Megatron (WFC)|gladiator]] would also name himself after Megatronus before shortening his name to simply "Megatron". {{storylink|One Shall Rise, Part 3}}

| When [[Starscream (WFC)|Starscream]] proclaimed to Optimus Prime that he wished to change sides, [[Bulkhead (Prime)|Bulkhead]] sarcastically claimed that he had been [[lobbing]] with the Fallen. {{storylink|Partners}}
