The primals that are fought in the Showdown quests. They also have [[OneWingedAngel Xeno versions]] which can be fought for the powerful Xeno Weapons.

* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: When separating summons by series was implemented, Lucifer was originally the ''only'' primarch not to be categorized as a Primarch Series (now renamed to "Archangel Series") summon, despite all of his fellow primarchs ending up in that category. He was instead categorized with Bahamut as part of the Providence Series, which is technically accurate lore-wise as he is stated to be second only to Bahamut in terms of power. Sometime later Belial was added to the "Providence Series" category as a summon, finally causing this trope to be averted.

* AloofAlly: He's the most aloof and silent of the primarchs, and tends to keep his distance from others.

* ElementalEmbodiment: Of the wind element.

* PerpetualFrowner: Though his journal portrait depicts him smiling, the guy actually smiles very rarely, and his default expression is a DeathGlare.

A primal beast residing over Zinkenstill. Lyria borrowed its power when they were cornered by the empire in the beginning of the story. [[spoiler:He is called the Omnipotent in the creation myths recorded in Etemenanki. Described by his Speaker, Helel ben Sahar, as a being from another dimension, he created the new world with some similiarity to the [[VideoGame/RageOfBahamut previous world]] he was in. After the creation, Bahamut split into two halves, one half as the Sky God, the other as the Astral God. For ages both halves fought proxy wars with each other in an attempt to reunite with the other.]]

* AmbiguousSituation: In "Primal Resonance", [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nezha_primal_resonance_9.png Nezha explains that Primal Beasts have characteristics]] that may outright contradict the ways mortals perceive them, like for example: [[AmbiguouslyRelated Ambiguous Relationships]], or VagueAge. [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/i74hrgm_9.png What these things are referring to is how Primals are Primal Cores and the way we see Primals at face-value are not really them.]] They are just sentient, weaponized objects called Primal Cores. [[https://youtu.be/VmiJ5U3ux5g Beelzebub, an Astral, says something similar in "What Makes The Sky Blue III:0[EP 2]" when fighting Malluel and Halluel. To which Hal & Mal say in response that they are more than just that because they have free will and don't exist to be controlled.]] [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_1306_2.png The race called Astral, created the Primals to utilize as tools or god-like weapons of war.]] [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ff_y6amwiaeyco7.jpg Euryale, another Primal, acknowledges this fact as well.]] It's also because Primals are not of Mortal society that Mortal terms do not translate onto Primals well due to being objectified by the Astrals. For example, in [[https://youtu.be/TEE769LUqAg "Scent of Fate at Sky's End: Reflection of the Heart [Part 3]" Nezha also says that we as Mortals can say that Primals have "eternal youth" or in other words,]] {{Immortality}}. But the way a Primal conceptualizes Life and Death are different. [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_3067.png Because Primals don't have lifespans unlike Mortal beings who change over time.]] [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fp6tjt3xmacl_6m.jpg On top of this, Nezha in his Fate Episode mentions that alongside being Immortal, Primals are also Immutable. Meaning they cannot change overall when it comes to their intended design as a Primal Beast.]] [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fxl2znrwyaegl96.jpg In the 8th Anniversary event, both a Primal's Immortality and Immutability are portrayed as tragic when they were abandoned by the Astrals and left behind in the Skyrealm. A world foreign to them that changes all around them and the world's residents fearing Primals. This in turn made it hard to fit in. Lucifer makes a remark about this.]] All of which leading to Cosmos's appearance and helping out with the issue. An Astral's Power, [[https://youtu.be/1IfLw8sBvh0 aka "Origination" as said by Loki]], [[https://youtu.be/pO2H_SJA4r8 is also what the Pre-Primal state is, in order to give a primal body's conceptual pre-primal state state through a Sky Realm Core, which is the essence of the Sky.]] [[https://youtu.be/LpCX2sgLUxo When a Primal gets hit with a killing blow, they demanifest back into a Core to recover their lethal wounds.]] When finished, they materialize back into the form the Astral created for them. However, if one chose to destroy the Core, then their Primal Essence, or Pre-Primal state would be released from it and from there, they cease to exist. These things were talked about by Rosetta in Chapter 118 as Gran's Father, also known as the Primal Killer, was tasked to release the Primals from their Cores. However he never did this to Primals who feared death and wished to live. [[https://youtu.be/08YdOYzq0Zg Another thing Nezha states in "Scent of Fate at Sky's End[Day 4]" is that when he was born, rather than training and experience, he was born with a disposition for combat and battle]] which says the same for most other Primals as well. [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/5rgo9i6.png Primals run on Astral Power.]] If there was a scenario where a Primal were to be overloaded with Astral Power [[https://youtu.be/X5XdTxJQd0k like when Loki manually utilized Fenrir as a weapon to take out Rackam, Io, and Eugen]], or [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nxbbxgo_5.png if they push themselves way too hard as Zooey did in "Robomi: Epic Clash", they will start to crack, leading them to eventually break in the literal sense and return back into their Core form.]]

* ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve: [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_1308.png In the Zooey(Light) Fate episode, Zooey mentions that she as a Primal Beast was born from the desires and wishes of Skydwellers and Astrals.]] Just as in Primal Resonance, Geo is said to be born from the desires and wishes of Primal Beasts. As explained in Shiva's fate episode, some of them can use [[GodsNeedPrayerBadly prayers to power themselves]].
