SPECIAL FEATURES
- Dantari Crystal: In the same vein as standard Dantari crystals, Autumn's Light has the ability to recycle the 'wild & fierce energy of combat' back to it's owner in order to fuel their ability within the Force. This also allows them to better concentrate on recovering from using the Force as well.
- Bonded: Similar to other crystals, Autumn's Light can only be bonded to a single owner at a time, and only its owner can benefit from the special properties the crystal has. It rejects Dark Siders unless bled, and to allies, it's very difficult to control.
- Force Imbued: After locating this rather unique crystal, Luric took to meditation upon it, imbuing it with the Force in order to further it's ability by making it more stable. As a result, it's abilities are much more precises than stand Dantari crystals.
- Autumn's Light: This is a truly unique and special crystal, a one-and-only variation of a Dantari Crystal. It's purpose is to help assist it's owner in recovering spent Force energy, and to help fuel that connection even further where possible. It relies on the owners inner core, the very nature of their being in order to achieve this. A Jedi Knight true of heart who is fiercely loyal will find their connection to the Force greatly improved, while someone who is cruel and callow will find themselves struggling to maintain control.
STRENGTHS
- Bleeding: As Autumn's Light is specifically attuned to the Lightside, it is exceedingly resistant to bleeding. However, a Sith Lord who is a Master of the art of Sith Alchemy would find it very difficult, yet not impossible, to twist it to the Darkness.
- Bonded: This crystal is bonded to it's owner, and as such, anyone other than the owner using a weapon containing it would find that the weapon would simply not function no matter what one may try to do to it in order to make it work.
- Force Imbued: The meditation undertaken upon the crystal by Luric has given it a modicum of stability beyond typical crystals, and as such makes it easier for Luric to keep his connection to the Force.
- Autumn's Light: When in the posession of a Jedi of unwavering loyalty, it will grant a significant increase to precognitive skills in combat & the ability to call upon the Force noticeably.
WEAKNESSES
- Force-nullification: Whilst this crystal can still function within a weapon inside a Force-nullification field, it's Force-imbued ability cannot. Things such as Void Stones, Ysalamiri fields, and such things would cause it to lose stability, which in turn would make the owner have to expend more energy, effectively canceling it out.
- Fragile: While special in it's properties, a crystal is just that; a crystal. Outside of it's home within the hilt, it can be broken or shattered by simple means.
- Autumn's Light: The very nature of this crystal makes it so that only one whose intentions are true, their heart pure, and their loyalty unwavering can make effective use of it. Those who are wavering in their loyalties, who adhere to more chaotic values, or those whom find themselves lacking in character befitting a Jedi would end up with a weapon that would barely function, if at all.
- Calm of Heart: While a Jedi would not consider this a weakness, the crystal is specially attuned to the Lightside of the Force. This makes the blade nigh unusable to those of the Dark paths of the Sith or Dark Jedi. As a result, should the owner ever find themselves using the weapon while experiencing extreme anger or rage, the crystal would lose stability, and the weapon would likely cease to function.
DESCRIPTION
In a time long since passed, in the era of the Old Republic, upon the world of Dantooine, this unique variant of the Dantari crystal formed. Within the egg clutch of a large and powerful Kinrath, it was altered from it's brethren, it's unique affiliation to the Lightside the response of shielding itself from powerful Dark energy, some have speculated. The truth of it's origins are lost forever to time, unfortunately.
However, the crystal itself remains, happened upon by a Jedi Knight who was exploring the planet's cave systems. Luric Ee'everwest had ended up upon the world of Dantooine after being granted the title of Knight by his Aunt & Jedi Master,
Teyla Sal-Soren
. With her permission, he sought to meditate upon the Force, to explore sights of great historical importance and hopefully commune with the Living Force that connects all things. The kinrath within this specific cave structure had long since vanished, only fossils and rocks remained. Yet, something tugged at Luric through the tendrils of the Force.As he ventured deeper into the cave, he could feel himself being nudged in a way, led toward a specific site where he found the fossilized remains of a Kinrath's nest. Tapping away at the mound, he could see a light from within, shining forth through the cracks. It appeared to be a greenish blue hue, and soon enough, the crystal itself was exposed. It radiated warmth and glowed bright against the dim cave walls. Yet, when Luric picked it up, he saw something wondrous. The crystal began to dim, and it's hue shifted. First to a dark purple, then bright, through the red spectrum until it began to glow a brilliant orange!
As he looked upon the small crystal in the palm of his hand, he sat down within the caves, and began to meditate upon the crystal, coxing the Force to surround it, to fill it. For three days and three nights, Luric would remain here, focused on the crystal, and of the Force itself. And when he emerged from the cave, he had a brilliant orange Dantari crystal in his possession, intimately linked to him and him alone. And he gave it a name... Autumn's Light.
