- Intent: Create standard semi unique lightsabers for the open market and as loot for quests/dungeons, and also because our fine members should not have to hunt Wookieepedia quite so much if they don't want to
- Image Source: N/A (Impossible to provide image as there are so many examples)
- Canon Link: N/A
- Permissions: N/A
- Primary Source: Lightsaber
- Manufacturer: Various
- Affiliation: Various
- Market Status: Closed-Market
- Model: N/A
- Modularity: Yes (Requires separate sub)
- Production: Semi Unique
- Material: Durasteel, Kyber crystal, lightsaber components
- Classification: Lightsaber
- Size: Average
- Weight: Light
- Kyber crystals can come in many in colors, and attune to the Force User that meditated on them. Can be bled red by the pain and rage of a user
- Can cut through most materials
- Can deflect blaster bolts
- Rip and Tear: Even the simplest Lightsaber made for genuine field use can cut through almost anything, save rare or Alchemized Materials, and of course other Lightsabers. They are often omni directional, and nearly weightless save for the powerful gyroscopic effect when active that takes skill to learn how to work with.
- Deflector: Lightsaber Energy Blades are infamous for the ability to often deflect blaster bolts, and with sufficient skill, upgrades, or both, reflect them upon their sources
- Fight anywhere: Both Ancient and modern examples can function in space
- Attunement: Attunes to whoever constructs them, or whoever meditates with them to re-attune the saber to their own life force. Alternatively, the hatred and pain of a Dark Side User who has obtained one can bleed the Kyber Crystal within red, leaving it in constant pain (They eventually stop serving a Dark User if not bled). Bled crystals can be healed, but become permanently white. Attuned crystals may typically become a potent tool for meditation, and responds more easily to the user as time moves on. It may also become easier to sense and manipulate with the Force, Specifically Telekinesis, Or it May Channel or grind Force Lightning easier
- Variety: Basic Kyber Lightsabers come in 3 common forms:
Lightsaber Shoto
Long Handle Lightsaber
- Rep Maker: Even Millennia after it's introduction, Lightsabers and their exotic variants are still near universally respected and feared. How you use it is up to you, but if you do and let the Galaxy see it, you'll have a high chance of getting a reputation for better or worse
- PC--Friendly: The sub has been made specifically Semi Unique OOC so that players can have as nice and neat a sub as possible that allows them to get into Force User Role Play so they don't have to spend hours hunting Wookieepedia and just use a Kyber Lightsaber and pass this sub out as reward loot for stories and quests or as a starting weapon for new Force Characters
- Cortosis: Bog Standard Kyber Lightsabers and their variants typically cannot or otherwise have great difficulty cutting through anything with Cortosis. Most Kyber Lightsabers will also shut down if exposed to pure Cortosis and must be reset to be reactivated
- Sonics: Sonic Projectiles typically bend around ordinary Kyber Lightsaber Blades
- Slugthrowers: Solid ammo typically melts when hitting lightsaber blades, potentially causing splash damage and making bullets extremely difficult to defend against
- Paddle Beams: Paddle Beams typically bend around these Lightsaber Blades
- Force Voids: Most Kyber Lightsabers will typically shut off in Force Voids
- Breakage Chance: Kyber Lightsabers commonly are slightly vulnerable to Lightsaber Blades using Synthetic Lightsaber Crystals, and there is an incredibly rare chance they will break from repeated contact with one
- Modifications may affect performance: Altering these "common" Lightsabers Power Cell, Lens, and Emitter may make them excellent for some situations but weaker in others, and these weaknesses and strengths grow more or less pronounced given the variant of Lightsaber one is using. The Variants of each Lightsaber itself have a wide variety of pros and cons each if found IC no matter where they are, and no two hilt exteriors will look completely the same
Lightsabers have been in use for thousands of years by various Force Orders and come in many forms. The Lightsabers using Kyber Crystals are among the most common, favored by Jedi and Sith alike. Often found on a Force User's person, they are often tied to that individuals very being, and can be located in ancient tombs, vaults, or taken off the slain bodies of their owners.
Often simplistic in design when first constructed, (Most Ancient examples found in tombs are of simple construction as well as modern examples) they can be slowly added to over the years becoming inseparable from their owners. Even thousands of years after their introduction, the simplest Lightsaber still commands thousands of credits on the black market for Crime Lords looking to splurge, and even the most basic bog standard examples are still often the centerpiece of any private collection--and perfectly capable of cutting through nearly anything or anyone, even without Enhancements.
The perfect Sub for Player Characters who want to stock a dungeon with loot, nab from a fallen npc, or the sub they use when taking their own character into battle or as the basis for a unique sub. Can come in almost any color
