Starkiller

Sun-destroying weapon

Starkiller appears primarily in the Star Wars universe, where it names characters and superweapons capable of destroying stars or planets.

The word combines the cosmic scale of "star" with the finality of "killer" to suggest apocalyptic destructive power.

Outside Star Wars, starkiller occasionally appears in science fiction or gaming contexts for weapons or characters of similar magnitude: The fleet's starkiller cannon could obliterate an entire system.
