Devastators

"When the Iconians built the first devastators, the Xai; a species that had master stellar manipulation and were harnessing the power of entire stars, panicked and lost their minds when they had to face them. And those weren't even the big ones. Those came later."

Devastators as massive mobile war-machines which are employed by the Obsidian Guard in planetary and interplanetary conflicts. They were first seen in combat during the Xyon Civil War, during which time the Iconians employed the first devastators in combat against the Obsidian Guard during the First Battle of Iconia in 2142 AXU. These were not true war-machines, but were designed to terrorize and demoralize the Xai fighting against the Iconian rebels. The Obsidian Guard managed to acquire the blueprints to the versions used by the rebels following the end of the war, and developed the first truly combat worthy models shortly thereafter. Since then, devastators have come to form an important part of the Xai military machine. Dozens were sent to fight the Elysians following the civil war, and due to the destruction they caused, the conflict was aptly named the Devastator War as a result.
