Before being called The Fallen , he was Megatronus Prime , one of the original 13 Primes forged by Primus to defend the universe against Unicron .

But his pride and ambition led him to betray his creator. Obsessed with domination and merging with chaos energy, he became the first being to reject the light, giving rise to the very concept of the Decepticons .

After betraying the Primes, Megatronus absorbed Unicron's dark energy, becoming The Fallen . His body transformed, his mind corrupted, and he was consumed by hatred. His goal: to destroy the Energon-sourced Sun, in order to expand the reign of chaos.

In the 2009 film Revenge of the Fallen , he returns as Megatron 's mentor, seeking to reactivate the Sun Machine buried on Earth. His defeat by Optimus Prime symbolizes the victory of light over darkness.

The Fallen is more than just an antagonist. He embodies the fall of ideals and the perversion of power. In Transformers mythology, he represents the dark side of Primus's creation: the one that rejects balance in favor of absolute power.

• Represents the corruption of original wisdom.
• Symbol of the first cosmic conflict between light and chaos.
• Spiritual source of the Decepticon movement.

This complex character directly links Cybertronian theology to the birth of evil.

Even after its destruction, the Fallen's influence endures through the centuries. Its twisted teachings inspire Megatron and the Decepticon hierarchy.

Every resurgence of Chaos, every Energon War, bears the mark of his legacy. His name has become a legend: that of the one who dared to challenge the gods themselves.
