History

General Grievous with his custom DT-57, Grievance Striker.

During the Clone Wars, General Grievous wielded a custom DT-57 "Annihilator", dubbed "Grievance Striker,"[4] in conjunction with the many lightsabers of his personal collection, stolen from Jedi he had defeated during the war. The weapon was turned on its owner when Obi-Wan Kenobi used it to kill Grievous on Utapau.[3] The blaster was later recovered by the Galactic Empire and given to N-K Necrosis. When Necrosis was destroyed by a group of spacers on Kashyyyk, the blaster fell into their possession.[4]

During the Galactic Civil War, the smuggler Falsta carried a heavily modified Clone Wars-era DT-57 heavy blaster pistol which he claimed was once owned by General Grievous.[5]
