• Model: Not applicable
• Modularity: No
• Production: Semi-unique (rare)
• Material: Kyber crystal

SPECIAL FEATURES

WEAKNESSES

• Obscured Aura:
• Distrustful of non-Lorrdians: Given the history of these gemstones, they respond most favorably to Lorrdians. Force-sensitives of other species who attempt to use a Lorrdian gemstone in a lightsaber will often not be able to benefit from its kinetic prediction ability, but it will produce a plasma blade. The gemstone will refuse to do the same for an Argazdan as their ancestors had enslaved the Lorrdians.

DESCRIPTION
(Describe some of the histories behind the submission. Give us some idea of how it might perform its function, what it excels against and what some limitations of it are. This is where you talk about your idea, flesh it out over at least a good-sized paragraph, and address some of the ways it might be used or abused. For especially powerful or ambitious submissions, a very thorough description is recommended.)

  • Other: Elements - None

SPECIAL FEATURES

• Boxy silhouette
• Warm layers
• Traditional Lorrdian embroidery detail on sleeves
• Bead tassels at back
• Hidden pocket

STRENGTHS

• Boxy Silhouette: Puff sleeves and a floor-length, voluminous skirt masks Efret's conscious and unconscious kinetic communication
• Hidden Pocket: As a Forcer-using member of LAW's government, Efret is allowed to carry her weapons at all times. She opts to stow her lightsaber in a pocket sewn into her skirt for discretion—but it's good to have access to it in case of an emergency.

WEAKNESSES

• All This Fabric: The drawback of wearing a gown with a boxy silhouette is that it's also restrictive in terms of movement. Even if circumstance calls for running, Efret won't be able to do it very well. Acrobatics are entirely out of the question.

• Intent: To create a unique, personal weapon for Jedi Master Efret Farr
• Image Source:

  • Edited with Canva by me
• Canon Link: Not canon
• Permissions: No permissions
• Primary Source: Lightsaber

PRODUCTION INFORMATION

• Manufacturer: Efret Farr
• Affiliation: Efret Farr
• Market Status: Closed-market
• Model: Not applicable
• Modularity: Yes; all lightsaber parts can be readily swapped out for others
• Production: Unique
• Materials:
  • Green Ilum crystal - currently partially bled to a rusty orange color
  • Durasteel base parts
  • Desh reinforced areas
  • Leather strips
  • Yellow glow-paint
  • Fibercord

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

• Classification: Lightsaber
• Size: Small
• Weight: Average

SPECIAL FEATURES

• Leather-wrapped grip
• Yellow glow-paint band at bottom of activation switch
• Large O-ring
  • Fibercord

STRENGTHS

• Sensory Features: As Efret doesn't use Nirrah as a sight guide when in combat, her lightsaber has various sensory features to help orient and assist her instead.
  • A thin band of yellow glow-paint encircles the bottom of the activation switch. It glows slightly but enough to stand out in Efret's limited field of view since her light perception is sharper than her perception of detail.
  • The feel of leather allows her to grip the lightsaber properly without looking at it.
  • The O-ring at the bottom end of the weapon is large for easy attachment to a belt clip.
• Partially-bled Crystal:
• Belt Tether: A retractable spool of fibercord is tied to the large O-ring, the other side of which is attached to her belt. It prevents loss of the lightsaber even when Efret drops it; all she has to it is reel in the line.

WEAKNESSES

• Lower Durability: Efret is a Jedi Researcher knowledgeable in archeology, anthropology, and geology. Until the beginning of the Galactic Alliance's war with the Dark Empire, she was rarely involved in bouts of violence, let alone full-scale battles. The life she leads now as a less isolationist Jedi concerned only with independent research was not a future she envisioned when she first built her lightsaber. Thus, it wasn't meant to endure the conditions that the lightsabers of Guardians do.
• Traditional Limitations: Attacks from slugthowers and flamethrowers cannot be effectively parried nor reflected. Contact with cortosis will briefly short out this blade. It cannot be ignited or used underwater.

DESCRIPTION

c. 6 billion years ago - The protoplanet Toshara incorporates more material into itself as it cleans up its orbit around its sun. Layers begin to differentiate according to atomic mass and density, with heavier and denser materials moving towards the center of the planet and pushing the lighter, less dense mass towards the surface. A core, mantle, crust, and ultimately continents are formed as planetary layers. The comparatively light elements that form amberine are caught up in heavier magmas and brought into the core, where it then solidifies.​

c. 4.7 billion years ago - The oldest known amberine vein emerges on the newly-solidified Tosharan surface. It takes likely takes only a few decades for the the harsh winds to erode away the gabbro rind in which the amberine cooled.​

c. 9,450 years ago - The first known arrowhead made from amberine is made and used by prehistoric sentient species to hunt and wage war.​

c. 702 ABY - An Iskalonian acquires three large hand samples of amberine from a Tosharan merchant stranded as she travels the Mara Corridor.​

900 ABY - Efret Farr is gifted one of the hand axes that were made from the material by a family descendant of the Iskalonian. In an investigation into the source of the mineral, she travels to Toshara. After finding an unaltered outcrop of amberine on the planet's surface and comparing it with the hand axe, she enlists the help of Dr. Asori Soto to publish a mineralogical paper on amberine. The main finding are summarized below.​

---

Name: Amberine​

Formula: 70–75% SiO2 + Na8Al6Si6O6S22​

Classification: Sulfur sodium aluminum silicate​

Color: When dry, bright orange; when hydrated, darker orange​

Luster: Glassy​

Transparency: When dry, translucent; when hydrated, opaque​

Hardness: 5/10​

Fracture: Conchoidal​

Crystal system: None; plutonic glass​

Optical properties: When dry, tenebrescence​

Type locality: Toshara​

Occurrence: Ubiquitous, normally as massive, flowing veins; both surface and subsurface​

Outcrop-scale texture: Aukahi (like taffy candy being pulled apart; Genetian: smooth, clear)​

Mineral associations: Plagioclase feldspar and pyroxene plus olivine, hornblende, and/or orthopyroxene as the rock gabbro​

Formation: Amberine's elemental components spontaneously separate from magmas in Toshara's core and solidify to produce plutonic glass (similar to volcanic glass except volcanism is not involved); the process that allows this is not know but current theory suggests that the chemical reaction of a gabbro melt with an amberine melt is massively endothermic, which cools the amberine quickly enough so that crystals are not formed; the gabbro then forms over time and envelops the amberine​

​
