TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS


Classification:
Greataxe / Siege Axe
Size:
Very Large
Weight:
Very Heavy


SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Forged entirely from Kov'dra, making it incredibly resistant to lightsabers and Force manipulation.
  • Flame-scarring on the blade's edge creates a jagged burn pattern that disrupts energy shielding on impact.
  • Force-Dampening Field generated passively while wielded within 2 meters; Force-users feel disoriented.
  • Phrik-lock rivets along the blade spine resist explosive shock and kinetic rebound.
  • Haft wrapped in hide leather, designed to hold grip even under extreme conditions.

STRENGTHS
  • Anti-Force Presence: Naturally disturbs Force sensitivity in close proximity, especially precognition and danger sense.
  • Siege Power: Capable of breaking reinforced doors, vaults, or heavy armor in 1–2 well-placed blows.
  • Reseliant Edge: Retains edge integrity even after centuries buried in ash, thanks to Kov'dra's resistance to time and heat.
  • Blaster & Saber Resilience: a High resilience to Blaster and Lightsaber contact

WEAKNESSES
  • Excessive Weight: Requires immense strength to wield properly. Cannot be used effectively one-handed or by lightly-armored wearers.
  • Cumbersome Size: Poor in confined spaces; wide swings are easily interrupted or dodged in close quarters.
  • No Parrying Utility: Too large and unbalanced to block incoming strikes effectively.
  • Force-Neutral: Though it suppresses Force use around it, it cannot channel or interact with the Force in any beneficial way.

DESCRIPTION
Forged in the dying light of Kiev'ara's final war, the Barrow-Axe of the Ember Gate was said to be wielded by a temple guardian during the last stand of the Fire Kingdom. The axe is massive—standing nearly as tall as a man—and scorched along its edge from prolonged exposure to the burning gates of the Ember Citadel, where the defenders made their final stand. Constructed from Kov'dra, a near-mythic metal native to Kiev'ara, the axe resists not only lightsaber strikes and kinetic damage, but actively interferes with Force-sensitive perception. Jedi and Sith alike describe a numbing static when the axe is nearby, as if their connection to the Force were being smothered by ash. Its design is utilitarian, brutal, and unadorned—only the spiraled draconic runes etched into the axehead remain legible. Though ceremonial in origin, it became a frontline weapon during Kiev'ara's final siege, used to batter down Rakatan war constructs and Rienforced doors.

  • Indestructible Edge: Retains edge integrity even after centuries buried in ash, thanks to Kov'dra's resistance to time and heat.
  • Blaster & Saber Resilience: Virtually immune to energy weapon degradation or blade clashes.
These are very definitive. I'll ask you edit these to be more vague, as the Factory operates under the rule that nothing is immune or indestructable.
