Fiction

IDW Generation 1 continuity

In the earliest time in history, the Light God Primus formed the miracle planet of Cybertron. He later split his essence into five avatars consisting of himself, Solomus, Mortilus, Epistemus, and Adaptus. This pantheon of deities were the Guiding Hand, and Solomus was wisdom incarnate amongst them. Together, these gods guided Cybertronian civilization and helped bring about the first Golden Age. This ended when Mortilus shattered their union in his desire to strike against the universe. The conflict sparked by him caused Cybertron to shudder and ripped asunder its first moon. Before his destruction, Mortilus managed to entrap Solomus within a crystal prison, but the god managed to reshape its form to become the Matrix of Leadership, which also served as a connection to Vector Sigma, though his most important gift was wisdom to future generations of Transformers. You, Me, and Other Revelations

If this is true, what became of him once the Matrix was emptied into Vector Sigma to stop D-Void and split in two is unknown, Genesis though it is possible he restarted Primus, as Vector Sigma began functioning for the first time in centuries, restoring Cybertron to a living world shortly afterward.

It was assumed by Drift that this map would lead to the Knights of Cybertron, though the Knights are supposed to have been the first generation created after the war with Mortilus left Solomus trapped as the Matrix.

Solomus was a member of the Thirteen. Vector Prime fondly remembered his brother's kindness and wisdom. Vector found that he had competing, contradictory memories of universes in which Solomus was not a member of the Thirteen, including one in which he predated Vector's pantheon]], and another in which he never existed at all. Ask Vector Prime, 14/6/15 When Nexus Prime later used the Star Saber and Terminus Blade to obliterate multiversal singularities, the reason for these contradictory memories became clear, as Solomus and the other Thirteen were splintered into infinite alternate selves across the multiverse. Out of the One, Many

When questioned if Solomus was Alpha Trion and vice versa, he enigmatically answered that his brother wore many faces, and answered to many names. Make of that what you will. Ask Vector Prime
