    Assuming they come into play in MTMTE, what can Roberts do to improve them?

    Don't reveal them to actually 100% definitely have been the creators of the Transformers, because doing so would destroy the awesome religious beliefs Roberts has created.

    Maybe make them the bastard children of Primus, the original group who were born/built to help raise the Cybertronian life as it came into being, but decided to take matters into their own hand and change the rules?

    Already called it, The Quintesson's are the Knights of Cybertron. They left Cybertron to spread the word of the Guiding hand across the Universe but have become twisted and tainted over the millennia since.

    I Would like to keep the exact origin of the transformers to remain still a mystery but I would love to see quintessons test cyclonus's faith by suggesting to him that primus was simply a computer program memory planted by them into all cybertronians to make them submissive when it suites there purposes

    I'm almost positive they have something to do with Chief Justice Tyrest.

    Any reason other than "they both like the law!"?

    Nah, I have no real reasons to support it, just a hunch. I mean, you could bring up stuff like coloring, the five points on his head, his face being shadowed, etc, but that's nothing more than speculation and possible coincidence.

    I could see Tyrest being a Quintesson agent in charge of overseeing the war, though. The Tyrest Accord could be something that works in the Quintesson's favor, and that could also explain the weirdness surrounding Ultra Magnus. He said Tyrest "promised him things" in order to be the Accord's enforcer, which could relate to the fact that Mags is really hard to kill and he's seemingly on autopilot towards Luna-1.

    Not that that makes Tyrest a Quintesson, but hey, you never know.

    Kill most of the ones we like and have them be in relationships with each other?

    I'm guessing it's supposed to be a diss on MTMTE.

    If it is, it's a pretty poor one. Like, bottom tier stuff.

    Don't get me wrong, I like MTMTE, but I'm jumping ship after Remain in the Light is done.

    But if you want my actual opinion on what should be done:

    Nothing.

    If it isn't broken, don't fix it.

    I have to agree with what he said. I mean I love MTMTE.
