Some time in the past, the twelve Knights rebelled against Quintessa, whom they considered the "deceiver". Stealing her staff, they set out aboard a ship into space in hopes of finding worthy allies on another world.
By the fifth century C.E., the Knights had landed their ship on Earth, the planet of Unicron, inhabited by the humans. In Dark Ages England, they made contact with a native, Merlin, who promised to keep their existence a secret. However in 484, Merlin beseeched them to help his people against the invading Saxons. Judging that Camelot was proof of the worthiness of humankind, the Knights decided to render assistance to King Arthur's forces. They granted the staff of Quintessa to Merlin and combined into Dragonstorm. As the mighty dragon, the Knights annihilated their targets.
An unspecified time later, the Knights moved their ship to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, wherein they slumbered in stasis along with Merlin's corpse and the staff. By the 21st century, both the Knights of the Round Table and the Knights of Iacon had fallen into legend. Thanks to the efforts of the Order of the Witwiccans, Dragonstorm was misbelieved to merely be the exaggerated story of a catapult. In the meantime, another knight came to Earth in search of the Last Knight, prophecied to be crucial against Quintessa, who was moving Cybertron towards Earth. Though this knight was shot down by the TRF, he gave the Talisman to Cade Yeager. Yeager, Merlin's descendant Viviane Wembly, and their ally Cogman were able to board HMS Alliance and travel to the Knights' undersea ship.

Notes
- Whether any of Knights in the toyline are supposed to be Knights in the film is unclear, given the numerous design differences in the onscreen Knights.
