Star Saber (Thirteen)
| The name or term "Star Saber" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Star Saber (disambiguation). |
Prima's Star Saber sword was a weapon unlike any other. Though several other swords throughout the multiverse share its name, only one could snuff out stars and crumble the stuff of planets into dust. Due to unknown circumstances, long before recorded time began, the sword was shattered. So as to keep it from falling into the wrong hands, Nexus Prime decided to use his very body to conceal it. Vector Prime and Alpha Trion used the quantum edge of the blade (still functioning despite the sword's sad state) to carve Nexus Prime into five pieces. These pieces became their own individuals and, each with hidden knowledge of the location of a piece of the sword, were scattered across the cosmos.
Now that Nexus Prime has been reassembled from his components, he must rediscover the memories hidden within himself and find the shards of the Star Saber sword.
Fiction
Wings of Honor
Nexus Prime told his traveling companion Aquarius about his quest to find a powerful artifact, one that could cause the entire multiversal stack to collapse in on itself if it ever fell into evil hands. Unfortunately, Nexus's memory was scattered enough that he could no longer remember what the artifact was, what its pieces looked like, or where exactly they were. He did, however, feel that the Cybertron Elite Guard symbol he spotted on a box was somehow a clue, one that finally got him started on the right track. The Coming Storm: Part 1

Notes
- At Botcon 2010 Fun Publications said that Hasbro has, in effect, taken custody of the character of Nexus Prime, due to their plans for the 13. Because of this, Fun Pub will not be continuing his story. Thus, whether we will ever find out the fate of his quest to reunite the Star Saber remains in doubt.
