Stormreign

Stormreign is an Autobot-allied Knight from The Last Knight portion of the live-action film series continuity family.

Stormreign leads the Knights of Iacon, sworn to prevent their former mistress Quintessa from reclaiming her staff. Their ship having crashed on a secluded part of Earth, he is content for his warriors to remain hidden, far from the Great Deceiver's eyes, but the right cause – the right man – might just convince him to fight the good fight once again...

Stormreign sometimes forms part of Dragonstorm, the Knights' powerful combined form.

Fiction

The Last Knight film

Sometime in the later 5th century, the human "wizard" Merlin stumbled upon the spaceship of the Knights of Iacon, buried beneath the hills of England. He met Stormreign and its occupants, 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 Stormreign, seeking aid for King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table in a dire battle against the Saxons.

Moved by the human's words, Stormreign bestowed upon him Quintessa's staff, and dispatched Dragonstorm to fight alongside Arthur's men, winning them the day. In the battle's aftermath, the Knights of the Round Table and of Iacon forged an alliance, beginning a heraldic order which would become known as the Order of the Witwiccans. On at least one occasion, Stormreign charged into battle alongside Arthur's men.

In the modern day, Sir Edmund Burton's collection included an excerpt of the Bayeux Tapestry which appeared to show Stormreign and his knights fighting in the Battle of Hastings in 1066 AD. After being reawakened from their ship, which was deep in the Atlantic Ocean, Stormreign and the other Knights boarded the Knight Ship alongside Optimus Prime's Autobots to travel to Quintessa's base on a hanging section of Cybertron, which Quintessa had relocated to Earth's atmosphere. From the ship's hull, the Knights combined into Dragonstorm and took flight against Quintessa's Decepticon forces. As part of Dragonstorm, Stormreign dropped Optimus into battle against Infernocus. The allied humans, Autobots, and Knights emerged victorious, stopping Cybertron from consuming Earth's energy and forcing Quintessa and the Decepticons to flee. Soon afterwards, Stormreign and the other Knights once again formed Dragonstorm to fly alongside the Autobot ship towards their nearby homeworld. The Last Knight
