Prim is an associate of Emery Eden, whom he hates, voiced by TheIdsStudios.

Personality

Prim is irritable, yet rational compared to his associate Emery. The two are constantly at odds due to Prim disapproving of Emery's decisions including the latter's planned capture of Geff Rodrigo. Prim also hates Emery with every fiber of his being, which doesn't help their situation.

Role in Plot

Events of Season 1

As Emery Eden drives up on the beach of Outpost High Ground in the dead of night in Fax, Prim stared at him judgmentally. The next day, in Machine, when Emery returns with fuel stolen from High Ground while Prim was watching the warthog. Prim then chastises Emery for wasting time on his mission when Emery mocked him for asking how he didn't get caught. The two have a tense back and forth before moving forward with driving to Outpost Pit Fall in the hopes of stealing a pelican. Later, upon arriving on Outpost Pit Fall in the dead of night during Stashed, Prim judgmentally questioned Emery's actions. The next morning, in Overture, Prim witnesses Emery murder a SPARTAN-IV supersoldier to steal her pelican only to chastise him for attempting a one-liner.

Upon their arrival on Outpost Black Out in Retrograde, Prim questions Emery's judgement and his plan for the situation. Despite these criticisms, Prim does aide Emery by convincing him to take all of the guards rather than just Geff to avoid suspicion to which Emery begrudgingly complies. Prim also insults the guards alongside Emery during the pelican ride to High Ground and even after, though Emery eventually insults him as well to his chagrin.

Trivia

  • His armor and primary color were chosen by Primal, though was originally all white. Syp would add Teal as a secondary color to make Prim's color scheme an inverse of Emery Eden. Syp also added the red visor, due to feeling it would look more menacing.
  • During the production of Paranoia, Prim was intended to be alive and act as the main villain of Classic Season 2. This was changed upon Revoltge rejoining the series as Emery Eden, whose role was expanded from his initial appearance in Infinity and would be reintroduced in the following episode. Because Paranoia had already aired, Prim was added to Elsewhere during filming as both Syp and Revoltge came up with the idea of Prim being a ghost haunting Emery. This would later be revealed in Truth, the penultimate episode of the season.
    • When Prim was going to be the main villain, Syp or Primal were going to voice him. This was changed upon Revoltge's return as Emery Eden, with Syp casting her close good friend TheIdsStudios instead.
  • While only considered to be a minor character earlier into the production of Classic Season 2 by Syp, Prim's presence has increased due to his association with Emery.
  • Infinity is the only episode in which Prim is not seen with Emery at any point, as it was made prior to Prim's creation for Classic Season 2.
