DESCRIPTION
RDTOH (Refundable Dividend Tax On Hand) is borne from the realization that Griet may never be considered as a mainstream Force-user without a lightsaber, and so she sought to build her lightsaber. The Utai Hiridiu Antenna being the crystal of choice for this pair of lightsabers, its blade is blue with a black core. Due to the Hiridiu Antenna being heavier than standard lightsaber crystals, she quickly realized that, to keep the lightsaber well-balanced to wield, especially with the new circuit configuration being required to fit a Hiridiu Antenna into the lightsaber without a dimetris circuit, and hence make the blade immune to being shorted out by cortosis, a handguard was necessary. In addition, the Hiridiu Antenna grants the lightsaber the ability to confer corrosive abilities to its blade as well as to boost the range of comms within 5m of the lightsaber, at the cost of the crystal being vulnerable to sonic weapons, kinetic attacks as well as disruptors and, with it, the lightsabers.

For the properties that are not the result of the Utai Hiridiu Crystal mounted in the lightsaber: it comes with a bifurcating cyclical-ignition pulse, so that RDTOH can operates under water. The lightsaber hilts themselves are made of alchemized ciridium, with the alchemical treatment applied to the hilt rendering the lightsabers resistant to other lightsabers. And finally, as with all things alchemical, RDTOH comes with all the usual weaknesses of alchemy: Force-nullifiers, Force-presence, to name the main ones.

Strengths:
  • Can cut through many materials with relative ease.
  • Operates under water.
  • Corrosive blade
  • Can boost the range of comms within 5m of the lightsaber
  • Non-dimetris circuits: it renders the lightsaber immune to cortosis dust.
  • Lightsaber-resistant
Weaknesses:
  • The crystal is vulnerable to kinetic, sonic and disruptor damage
  • Force-light: exposure to Force-light can remove its crystal's alchemical properties.
  • Force-nullifiers: The presence of Force-nullifiers can render the lightsaber nothing more than an ordinary lightsaber.
  • Presence: Force-imbuement presence means that unless you somehow hide it, Force-users can detect the lightsaber.
