CHIMERA

The is a superweapon built by the S.O.L.A.C.E corporation and heavily refined by the Corporate Renegades. It is a satellite superlaser when described in simple terms, firing a deadly beam of Aether once the power cells are ready and the operator presses the fire button, destroying anything it hits with unerring precision.
==Overview==
CHIMERA is a directed energy weapon mounted on a massive satellite, perfectly designed to destroy anything when it fires its extremely lethal plasma beam. This superheated plasma has a temperature of over 2000 degrees Celsius and can easily destroy anything caught in the blast. The weapon, however, is completely useless for stealth because it is far too large in size and is designed for orbital attacks, which are intended to pulverise the enemy and prevent them from retaliating. S.O.L.A.C.E has constructed this weapon as they are able to steal an entire satellite manufactured by Nexima Robotics Corporation.
As Salazar Progektö and Templar Vanguard has refined the design, it now runs on Aether as the fuel source for its power. As a result, it becomes 3.6x more deadlier than anticipated, and has been demonstrated to destroy an entire mountain top, at 60% power. There is no known result of what it can do with 100% power, as it was only used at 41% power upon destroying the Legion headquarters, and was quickly destroyed after a few months, preventing the renegades from using it to their full potential, which is a missed opportunity in New Heroes, Another Ultimatum.

== Trivia ==
=== General ===
* Michael Nexima, for the first time, is unaware that a sattelite used as the basis for the weapon is unaware of the thievery.
* By default, it fires a red beam of plasma. With Aether, it is changed into a wicked, purple colour.
* Salazar Progektö apparently tested the weapon in its prototype phase.
* Templar Vanguard was able to refine the firing systems that allowed it to fire more than a single shot and cool off the components rather quickly.
*When the entire satellite superweapon has been destroyed, Michael Nexima shrugged it off through a public statement, stating that it "bastardised" his design.
