User:Ebon Shadowshot/Fist of Rukt (Stel-verse)

The Fist of Rukt was one of the first Gravity Hammers in existense. It's earliest known user was Maccaebus, who was defeated by his nephew Tartarus. Tartarus used the weapon as a weapon of bloodlust and terror. However, following Tartarus' death at the hands of the Arbiter, the new Chieftain of the Jiralhanae Keflus took the ancient weapon upon himself and used it as a weapon of vengeance.

The weapon seemingly disappeared when Keflus was assassinated on Sanghelios. However, it was revealed to be retrieved by another Jiralhanae. The century old weapon met it's end when Stel 'Vadam sliced the weapon in half before slaying it's owner. When the Nefarious Tir-D-yar used a bomb to flood the underground facilities of Terrador, the initial explosion shattered what remained of the weapon, splintering it into dozens of pieces.

Several Jiralhanae aswell as Sangheili returned to Reach soon afterwards in a deadly race to find the pieces. The Jiralhanae seek to reforge the weapon as a 'resurrection' of fear once induced at it's peak. However, all the pieces were later captured by Tir-D-yar and his Kig-Yar. While the Kig-Yar reforged the weapon mostly, it was still divided into four main pieces. Tir ordered three pieces to be hidden across the galaxy, luring the Jiralhanae to regain their courage. Tir planned for the Jiralhanae to regain their courage and charge to their deaths against impossible odds.

The fourth piece of the Hammer is the actual head of the weapon, which is held personally by Tir.
