The Devastation was a CIS Subjugator-class heavy cruiser and the sistership of the Malevolence.[6][2]

[edit] Characteristics

The vessel was quite different from the Malevolence, having a large cannon situated at the bow, with three protruding "claw"-like structures surrounding it. A hangar bay was located in what was otherwise an ion cannon projector on the other ship.[5]

[edit] History

The sister ship of the dreaded Malevolence and the second of their class to be built,[7] the vessel was involved in a conflict that concerned Dathomiri Nightsisters during the Clone Wars. It housed two gigantic Ion cannons powered by force crystals which were strong enough to destroy worlds. The vessel, before operational, hunted down the Republic vessel Sedawan and stormed the ship, plundering its cargo of lightsaber crystals.[5]

It's original first target was Dathomir, but the Nightsister Sai Sircu betrayed the Confederacy and charted a new course for Coruscant. However, the monstrous ship was destroyed by the combined efforts of a Jedi strike team including Mace Windu, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, Plo Koon, Ahsoka Tano and Kit Fisto.[5]
