A unique lightsaber with a ranged attachment, an energy bow akin to a crossbow, that was constructed by Jedi Knight Shem Spinner following his departure from the New Jedi Order. Due to his higher experience with bows rather than lightsabers, he saw fit to create a weapon that could serve both functions. An energy bow at range, but a lightsaber in close-quarters. The hilt is used similarly to a curved lightsaber. It has all of the bonuses of a lightsaber and a ranged plasma-based weapon, but has some drawbacks as well, primarily a lower rate of fire and a lack of ranged capabilities when submurged. This weapon gives Shem a high level of flexability for any combat situation.
