Weapon designed by the Ancient Merlin to destroy ascended beings, specifically the Ori. It is an energy transfer device that channels energy into the dimension occupied by ascended beings. In theory, the weapon can destroy ascended beings by interference -- as two standing waves cancelling out one another. To carry out his plan, Merlin separated from the ascendeds and retook human form, creating a dimension shifting device to conceal his work from them. In this device he left coordinates to where he hid the weapon -- Camelot. At present, the device has not been discovered. KEY EPISODE(S) - Arthur's Mantle - Once on the other side, Daniel reads the display on Merlin's computer, explaining the weapon he was building and the location to where he left it. Camelot - Kvasir theorizes about how Merlin's weapon works, while SG-1 gains a vital new clue about where to find it.  |
