Tarkin Super Weapon

The Tarkin was an Imperial superweapon capable of destroying a planet. It was developed by Bevel Lemelisk after the destruction of the first Death Star but before the Battle of Endor. It was commanded by Colonel Nord. 
== Description ==
The weapon was a stripped down superlaser with defensive shields and a set of engines without the surrounding superstructure of a Death Star, since it was not intended to be a space station. 
== History ==
The Tarkin was constructed in the Patriim system near the planet Hockaleg. It was named in memory of Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin, commander of the first Death Star.
During its construction, the Tarkin was commandeered by Grand Admiral Martio Batch and sent to the Aeten system, where it cracked the planet Aeten II and acquired its deeply buried supply of remaining stygium crystals. Having fulfilled its task, the Tarkin was then brought back to its construction site for the final preparations. 
== Foot Note ==
This weapon/Starship is used within a RESOLUTION Plots and is so part of the RSNverse of Star Wars lore.
