	The [[formian]]s took advantage of the modrons' weakness, invading Regulus and taking control of outlying gears formerly under modron control. Thus far, however, the energy pool of the modrons has spawned new modrons for every one destroyed, resulting in a stalemate. The inevitables, too, expanded into modron territory in order to gain new resources for their kind, though recently (as of 597 CY) the new Primus has formed a truce with the inevitables, granting them space in Regulus and monodrone assistants in the inevitable factories in exchange for the ending of hostilities.

	The history of Primus, like the history of the modrons, is possibly as old as the planes themselves. It may be that the modrons shaped the gears of of Mechanus in the [[Age before Ages]], or that the gears of Mechanus shaped the modrons from the stuff of pure Law. It's suggested that the first modrons might have been proto-[[inevitable]]s who learned to store energy in a central pool of energy, or that they were creatures of pure geometry that the plane of Mechanus slowly transformed into constructs. ~~4th~~ edition suggests that Primus may have been a machine-like [[primordial]].

	For eons Primus existed at the hub of the central cog of Regulus, the supreme intelligence of the modron race. If by some calamity Primus was destroyed, a secundus modron was immediately promoted to replace it. However, in this time of transition, while the new Primus examined the state of the planes and its race, some chaos would enter the modron species, something that other races sometimes mistook for civil war.
