The "dread weapon" is a worm-like organism that extends from the bow of a Yuuzhan Vong warship or worldship. The dread weapon is then used to puncture the surface of an enemy ship or space station and suck out all aboard. Alternitavely, the dread weapon can be used to puncture an surface for other reasons, such as to facilitate landing. A Dread Weapon was used for this purpose on Helska, when the first Yuuzhan Vong worldship landed.
