Keepin Corellia Weird
So, as I begin to design a personal set of lightsabers for Julius (the Skywalker saber will eventually go elsewhere), I have a question relating to songsteel, the one restricted mat i've not touched in any form besides orbalisks...
I want to combine it with the Echani Molecular Compression Technology which feature and was detailed HERE and in a few other Chaos submissions from Sasori and [member="Darth Vulkan"]. The idea behind it is it will go from a standard lightsaber hilt length to a light pike/spear length 'haft' and back.
Now, molecular compression is decidedly vague as a tech, but near as I can tell, it works off compressing the matter in density form, maybe? Not sure, but that would be my guess, it could just be pure handwavium. Regardless, being as I am trying to make Julius a blademaster, I thought it would be fitting to have the hilts made of songsteel since masterwork weapons are made of it. The quarterstaffs most famed for using molecular compression tech are noted as using cortosis or phrik already, so I think songsteel should work. Just curious for thoughts.
