It's called the Proto-Tool. The most versatile tech in the known universe. I've made some special modifications myself.

– Rook introducing his Proto-Tool to Ben.[1]

The Proto-Tool is a high tech multi-functional weapon that serves as Rook Blonko's primary weapon.

Appearance[]

The appearance of the Proto-Tool depends on its mode. In its default form, it appears to be a blaster, colored indigo, white and orange. It has a Galvan tech symbol on the top of its handle. When not in use, Rook wears the Proto-Tool on his shoulder.

History[]

Background[]

The Proto-Tool was created by the Galvan[DJW 1] an unspecified time ago and given to Rook.

Omniverse[]

When not in use or on standby, Rook wears the Proto-Tool on his left shoulder.

In Showdown: Part 2, the Proto-Tool was absorbed by Malware, though Rook eventually received a replacement.

In Rook Tales, the Proto-Tool was destroyed by Kundo before being fixed by Rook Ben.
