Alchemist Prime arose from Primus with a deep connection to the elements, and even among the Thirteen his powers straddle the line between science and mysticism. Alchemist's natural intelligence and curiosity are augmented by his personal artifact, the Lenses; permanently affixed into his optics, they allow him to perceive the physical and spiritual cycles of the universe in equal measure. Always in tune with creation, Alchemist's constant quest to understand the mechanisms of change means that he thinks of himself as a mere student of the natural world. Above all, Alchemist trusts his instincts and natural intuition, which rarely lead him wrong.
Alchemist Prime possesses the ability to transmute metals and temporarily alter the properties of any object. While these powerful abilities make him an unpredictable foe on the battlefield, Alchemist is one of the most even-tempered and gentle members of the Thirteen, with a friendly, sympathetic nature that makes him easy to be around. Among the Thirteen, his closest allies include Alpha Trion, Vector Prime, and Nexus Prime. Alchemist Prime's mastery of chemistry extends to various intoxicating beverages, which he has a professed fondness for. Like the other members of the Thirteen, Alchemist was once a multiversal singularity who existed as one being across all space and time, but that is no longer the case.
While most members of the Thirteen dispersed across space and time after their great schism, Alchemist opted to remain on Cybertron for a time, quietly guiding the progress of the earliest Transformer civilizations. Indeed, rumors swirl that Alchemist may still walk Cybertron after untold millennia, disguised as a humble bartender.
