TFO // Sentinel Prime

To
Sentinel is a muscular robot with a blue body and gold and silver accents. He has a pair of golden wings on his back.

After
The hull has darkened and grayed, symbolizing its decline. The gold parts have become dull, and the silver ones are dirty. A massive chunk has broken off one of the wings. The broken jet engines have been removed, and now Sentinel finds it extremely painful to walk and stand up. After Megatron tore him in half, Sentinel was carefully welded back together with surgical precision. However, he now has problems with his feet, and the area between his stomach and chest, right where he was torn, sometimes hurts.

After his repairs, Sentinel became very fearful and developed phobias, including Thanatophobia, a fear of the Decepticons and Megatron (especially Megatron), and many others. Sentinel fears his past self and tries to suppress these traits, but it doesn't always work. The current Sentinel is mentally weak and ill.

Character and personality
Sentinel portrays himself as a friendly leader of Cybertron, ready to help whenever needed. He appears as a trustworthy and wise ruler who loves his Cybertronian people and is always ready to support his subjects. His image also combines a playful, fun-loving personality. He often delivers long, mock-epic speeches, assuring the inhabitants of the metal planet that he is diligently searching for the Matrix of Leadership to save Cybertron.

But in reality, he is a cruel, power-hungry egotist who will do anything and kill anyone for his own sake. He is a petty, despotic, and totalitarian dictator whose goal is simply to live in luxury and glory. He takes great pleasure in being praised by Cybertronians, and has essentially created a divine image of a mission that will save Cybertron and find the Matrix of Leadership for the Energon supply. In reality, however, he was simply creating a cult of personality around himself to feed his ego and control the minds of his devoted people.
Sentinel is bold and mocking of enemies he can defeat. He's also a sadist. For example, when D-16 was held captive by Sentinel, he humiliated him before executing him and later carved Megatronus's face into his chest, simply for the pleasure of watching his captive suffer and helplessness.

Sentinel has no concept of empathy. He cares nothing for the pain of his people, nor for the depletion of resources or the planet's extinction. He shows no interest in others, and even in his allies, he sees merely potential for continuing his rule. Furthermore, Sentinel is loyal to no one: not the Cybertronians, not Primus, not even the Quintessons. The only one he serves is himself. He cooperates with the Quintessons only for profit and to maintain his eternal power on Cybertron, and he simply fears them, though it's clear he doesn't respect the Quintessons either.

Sentinel Prime (real name Sentinel) is the main antagonist of Transformers Origins. He was once the primary lieutenant of the Thirteen Primes until he betrayed and destroyed them by allying with their enemies, the Quintessons. He then became the false ruler of Cybertron and enslaved half the Transformer race, stripping them of their ability to transform and turning them into miners for Energon, which he later gave to the Quintessons.
