Darth Hashira
Enlightened
OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
A set of alchemized blades were created by Lord Hashira in order to celebrate the founding of the Jen'Ari empire. The blades were all discovered in an ancient Korriban tomb by the lord and brought back to his personal liar. After attempting several alchemizations on newer, cheaper swords he graduated to the real deal. After several carefully uttered words and placed ingredients this sword was created. It has extreme durability, able to delfect blaster bolts and withstand any number of lightsaber strikes. The blades were also covered in ancient Sith microscopic spores which infect the user when cut or stabbed. Surface level cuts and stabs do not infect the user, only when the blade reaches muscle or large blood vessels. The infection can be easily cured by Force Healing when treated promptly, however the longer one waits the more difficult it begins. There is no known non-force cure. When any flesh in sundered from the body, it quickly and violently rots away leaving only charred bones. A carefully placed gemstone at the bottom of the sword allows users to do two things. The first is that it allows the user to channel certain force abilities such as: force push/pull, force lightning, force fear, or even phryokenesis. None of these abilities (save Force Fear) are amplified, and are preformed at exactly the same level as regular, althoug perhapsmore accurately. The downside to this is that the standard ability for the blade to deflect force lightning is now gone, and even a small strike would prove disastrous. The second ability the gemstone grants is the amplification of Force Fear. The alchemization also reduced the feeling of weight in the swords for the user while maintaining the same level of striking power.
