Special Features:
- Sith Alchemy sword with special metals.
- Created out of an alloy that is rather light, and durable. it reduces the suspected weight, even more so with bone for the grip instead of more metal.
- Canon Sith sword effects of being able to deflect blaster fire, lightsaber resistance, Lightning rod effect, and sharper blades that require less time to maintain.
- Devaronian Edge is created using a special gem that is crushed into a powered form, invested into the liquid form of the damascus while in the forging process, to allow any physical contact with the weapon to cause immense amounts of pain. When cut with this weapon, the wound will be in constant pain until the wound is completely healed. If entered into the bloodstream, like the gem, can secrete a poison to cause pain over the course of a much longer period of time for the poison to leave the bloodstream. *Poison can be RPed as not happening, or being avoided in some way.*
- A downside of Sith alchemy is that the weapon will be considerably heavier than normal weapons of the same constancy.
- While the blade may have a Devaronian edge, it means maintaining the sword is a pain in the arse. Any contact with the metal blade causes pain, thus it is required to wear gloves, or some form of protection to maintain the blade. By default, the pain can only be caused by touching directly with skin. Light armors, even clothing that is not cut by the blade can prevent the effect from taking place.
- Does not have the same cutting power as a Lightsaber. So it can't cut through tougher plate armor. It can still cause damage to medium and light armors.
- Using two swords at the same time can be useful, but also means the wielder of the weapons needs to be careful of not just one blade, but two. Requiring more focus. However, this can be remedied by only using one sword.
- As with the dark sided effects of the swords, corruption to the dark side is capable when consistently using the weapon. The wielder will be more susceptible to outbursts of anger, and violence over time. *corruption effect is twice as much than without the weapons.*
A sword built for Zenva as per a unique request. As Nickolas Imura seems to have vanished into thin air, Atheus has taken up the company's name, assets, and rights to continue the company going, as well as provide income for the Hellyni man who was trained by Nick.
The swords are considerably thin, light, and short enough to prevent warping of the blade, and also to prevent the swords from being too heavy for the Zabrak to use comfortably. Given the materials by the Crimson Lady, Atheus began to create the swords by using her blood as a conduit. The swords' grip consists of Rancor bone that has been shaved, and cut down to reduce the weight, and provide quite a comfortable grasp upon the weapon. The tang housed inside the bone, kept together by epoxy created by various glues, and a few drops of her blood.
For aesthetic purposes, as well as holding the blade securely into the grip, the leather is wrapped around in the recess of a hole in the blade. The blades are double edged, to allow cutting foes with relative ease, and transitions in fighting styles to drastically change in an instant.
At the base of the blade, a sharpened "gut hook" can be used for precise cutting, or just as weapon catch, or to tear into flesh with more power applied from the closer proximity to the grip. However, the sword does not have a true point. Meaning this weapon is primarily meant for slashing, than stabbing. While it does have a point that can possibly be used to stab or jab someone, it won't be to the same effectiveness as a "standard" shortsword, or even a Katana based weapon.
The two swords come in loose sheathes to house the weapons upon the woman's figure in any configuration of the back, or hips. The additional value of the loose sheaths allow for less weight being carried upon her person, as well as prevent the sheaths from prohibiting movement when using the said weapons.
In short, maintaining these swords is a pain in the hand. Literally.
