Deus is the name Krest gave a blade he made himself. Between the teachings of Josiah Denko and Lord Daemos. He began his journey after reading up on the ancient Je'daii's weapons. Force Imbuned Blades. Lightsabers cut better. Deflected laser bolts. But their blades had no weight, a flaw in the Zabraks mind. He was trained at a young age to use metal blades, and after his shift to sabers he felt it was never the same.
Krest found himself on Val'hala, meeting with CEO Sno Wyte. She was the leader of a weapons company, and he had heard she knew the art. The trip turned out to be a profitable one, Krest learning from Lord Daemos how to channel the force and shape his blade at the same time. He failed multiple times after learning from the lord, and eventually had the skill well enough to make a decent blade.
But it was the Art of the Small Josiah Denko showed him and Hayato that proved the most effective. It allowed Krest to alter the metal in such a way similar to Sith Alchemy without the Dark side presence. Or at least just the Dark side. With Krest's quest to find pure balance in a similar fashion to the Je'daii his blade had both Light and Dark infused in it's blade. It is neither a Sith blade nor is it like Frostfall, the blade made in a similar way to Deus. The steel can still deflect blaster bolts, but it can also absorb lightning. The charge however is temporary, dissipating seconds after absorbing instead of staying adsorbed until the blade struck. On top of that it allows the power Force Weapon to be easier to accomplish, though not as well as the Frostfall counterpart.
The blade lets off a purple hue, almost in a flame like wisp smoking off the metal. The sheath is made of the same metal, allowing Krest to deflect sabers with it in his offhand. The sheath and hilt of the blade are also covered in Corellian Hardwood, only to prevent the wispy flame from giving his position away. The blade extends longer then most blades, giving Krest a longer reach, and in his mind the advantage.
Deus is a blade perfect for the Zabrak, allowing him to use blades he views as superior.
