The weapon holds three crystals two of which take advantage of a Bifurcating cyclical-ignition pulse, a pulse that allowed the Lightsaber to activate underwater.
[*]Deadman’s Pressure Plate
- Used as a safety and located on the hilts grip, this device allows the saber to shut off should it fall from her hand.
[*]Lack of dimetris circuits.
- Prevents short out of blade due to cortosis.
(See Cortosis Link)
[*]Protection against Poison/Heat
- Orrazerus Crystal Protects against poison/heat. Will not stop substantial burns, IE: Direct contact with a heat source for long periods of time.
[*]Dark Temperance
- The Orrazerus crystal casts a dark pall over the user, due to it's origins.
[*]Hilt Resistant to Lightsabers
- Being of Ultrachrome, the hilt can resist energy for a short time. Sustained contact long term will melt the entire hilt however.
[*]Etaan Crystal
- Gives off loud sound when impacting other sabers. Disorienting.
[*]Opilla Crystal
- Can cut even quicker.
Strengths:
- Ultrachrome: Hilt can resist glances from energy weapons.
- Poison/Heat Resist: Orrazerus crystal grants poison/heat resistance.
- Cortosis null: Lack of dimetris circuits let's it operate freely in contact with cortosis.
- Water Null: Cannot be shorted out by water.
- Deadmans Pressure plate: Shuts off when out of hand, protecting user
- Cut: Can cut quickly through ordinary materials
- May Disorient: (Up to PC) Sound from saber impact is immense and may disorient adversaries.
- Dark Temperance: Orrazerus Crystal seeps Darkside into the user over time, corrupting them
- Ultrachrome: Can melt when in sustained contact with energy source
- Dead man’s Pressure Plate: Will negate Saber throwing moves.
- May Disorient: Can disorient the user as well as adversary.
- Volatile: Three crystal structure in the hilt can explode if knocked off alignment. Could cost a hand.
For most strengths their is an imbalance. This is especially true in Karrens first Saber. Over a period of time the Jedi Apprentice came to be a Neutral Knight, seeking to find Balance. As Karren has grown her Lightsaber has grown with her.
Effectively she has added Crystals from rare sources as well as metals to make it a truly legendary weapon. With increased cutting power and special tricks of the trade it can operate in Water, Resist Cortosis, Resist Energy Weapons, and generally be a menace.
These come with drawbacks however. While the unique feature might be blessing in some situations, it is not an all powerful weapon. It cannot rend beskar, nor stand up to a large amount of punishing lightsaber strikes on its hilt before it melts. The Darkside hangs in a pall around the Saber, slowly corrupting the user for the trade of of resisting heat and Poison.
Three crystals made it able to fire underwater, but the non-alignment of those crystals can also cause the saber to explode. All in all it is a weapon more suited to a Balanced force user with caution, than a pure Jedi or Sith.
