Requiem Blaster (Thirteen)

This article is about the weapon from Aligned. For the weapon from Armada, see Requiem Blaster (Armada).

The Requiem Blaster is a very big cannon. (Too big a cannon for a modern transformer to hold the handle or pull the trigger.) It was created by the Thirteen to help destroy Unicron. It can blow stuff up. Real good. In fact, it might be the most powerful weapon ever. We also hear it looks pretty sweet mounted to the front of a massive corpse-ship.

The Requiem Blaster was created by weaponsmith Solus Prime, at Megatronus Prime's urging during the battle against Unicron. Possessed of great power, the Blaster was capable of levelling mountains. The Thirteen decided by a vote of seven to six to allow the weapon to exist. At some unknown point, the Requiem Blaster was placed on a ship which was lost in deep space. Yet so great was the gravity of the mighty weapon that over many eons, it caused countless pieces of junk drifting in space to collect around it, eventually making it the gravitational center of Junkion. Much later, Megatron found this weapon and attempted to destroy Optimus Prime with it, but he survived. The removal of the Requiem Blaster from Junkion caused the artificial planetoid to fall apart. The Decepticons had to eject the weapon out of the Nemesis due to it overheating, and out of the very real fear of it could explode. It would later become a target for the Star Seekers to find in their quest to destroy Cybertronians. Exiles
