"The Psimitar, a combination of ancient craftsmanship and modern ingenuity, channels the raw power of the mind into a focused, devastating force. Encased in resilient phrik alloy, it is a unique weapon that acts as an an extension of the wielder's very consciousness, transforming thought into action. With a simple twist, it extends to its full, formidable length, its blade capable of penetrating even the most impenetrable defenses. It's more than just a weapon."
― Unknown
The Psimitar is a weapon designed to amplify and focus psionic energy, tailored specifically for Force-sensitive individuals. The weapon resembles a medieval halberd and has some slight physical similarities to the Vibro-ax, combining advanced technology with ancient weapon aesthetics, and incorporates features similar to an expandable bo staff. It has a sleek, elongated shaft with a blade-like structure at the top, similar to a halberd. The weapon can collapse for easier storage and extend in length when needed, and be used in conjunction with or to enhance psychic power.

PRODUCTION INFORMATION
SPECIFIC COMPONENTS
Encephalic Sensors: Encephalic sensors are advanced devices that interact with the brain's electrical activity. They can detect and amplify neural signals, providing real-time feedback and stimulation to enhance cognitive functions. In the Psimitar, these sensors help the wielder maintain focus and boost their psionic powers by aligning with their brain waves.

PRODUCTION INFORMATION
- Manufacturer: Mother Askani
- Affiliation: House of Jade | Clan Askani
- Market Status: Closed-Market
- Model: Collapsible Polearm
- Modularity: No
- Production: Limited
- Material & Construction:
- Phrik Alloy: The primary material used for the Psimitar's exterior is phrik, known for its exceptional lightness, durability, and resistance to plasma weaponry (i.e lightsabers.)
- Psionic Amplifiers: Embedded within the shaft are specialized crystals that amplify psionic energy, akin to the kyber crystals used in lightsabers.
- Ultrasonic Encephalic Sensors: Internally, the Psimitar's shaft utilizes compact ultrasonic encephalic sensors that generate and stimulate waveforms in phase with the wielder's brain waves. These sensors unleash vibrations and dissonant sounds at specific frequencies to enhance focus and thus enhance one's psionic abilities.
- Insulated Handle: The handle features a layer of insulation to protect against EMP and electrical attacks and to ensure comfort during prolonged use.
- Focused Vibrator Cell: Located at the base of the halberd head, the focused vibrator cell emits high-frequency sonic pulses. These pulses cause the blade to vibrate at extreme speeds, making even a glancing blow potentially devastating by creating gaping wounds and allowing the weapon to penetrate the strongest armors.
- Trigger Mechanism: The Psimitar features a trigger mechanism in the form of a slight twist of the handle. This mechanism allows the weapon to extend from a compact form to a full-length staff.
- Psionic Imprint: Each Psimitar is keyed to the specific psi-signature of its user, ensuring it can only be wielded by the designated handler. In the hands of someone else, it functions as a regular polearm.
- Self-Destruct Safeguard: The Psimitar comes with a built-in safeguard that triggers self-destruction before the wielder can reach the point of burning out from excessive psionic energy use.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
- Classification: Collapsible Polearm
- Size: Average
- Weight: Light
SPECIAL FEATURES
- Psionic Focus: The Psimitar can concentrate telekinetic (TK) and extrasensory perception (ESP) abilities, allowing the wielder to manipulate objects with greater precision and extend their mental reach.
- Mind Disruption: On contact, the weapon can disrupt the minds and nervous systems of opponents, causing disorientation or incapacitation.
- Telepathic Keying: Each Psimitar is keyed to the specific psi-signature of its user, ensuring it can only be wielded by the designated handler. In the hands of someone else, it functions as a regular polearm.
- Insulated Handle: The handle insulation protects the wielder from EMP or electrical attacks, ensuring they can maintain control of the weapon and stay comfortable during prolonged use.
- Self-Destruct Safeguard: The Psimitar is equipped with a self-destruct mechanism that activates before the wielder can reach the point of burning out from excessive psionic energy use.
TRAINING & COMBAT STYLE:
To properly wield the Psimitar, one must be practiced in Morgukai martial and weapon arts. The Morgukai warriors, a sect of Kajain'sa'Nikto from Kintan, were known for their ritual combat techniques and discipline, making them formidable even to seasoned Jedi. The fighting style associated with the Psimitar draws inspiration from the Morgukai's methods, incorporating elements of their precise and powerful combat techniques in relation to their Cortosis staves.
STRENGTHS
- Enhanced Psionic Abilities: Significantly boosts the wielder's telepathic powers.
- Selective Use: Keyed to the psi-signature of the user, preventing unauthorized use. In the hands of others, it functions as a regular polearm.
- Versatile Combat Applications: Effective in both melee combat and as a thrown weapon.
- Energy Management: Absorbs and discharges excess psychic energy, protecting the user from psionic overload.
- Durability: Phrik alloy provides high resistance to lightsaber strikes and other energy-based weapons.
- Compact and Extendable: The ability to collapse for storage and extend for combat adds to its versatility, controlled by a simple twist of the handle.
- EMP/Electrical Insulation: The insulated handle protects the wielder from EMP or electrical attacks and provides comfort.
- Self-Destruct Safeguard: Ensures the weapon does not lead to psionic burnout for the wielder.
WEAKNESSES
- Dependency on Psionic Energy: Effectiveness diminishes if the user's psionic energy is depleted.
- Complex Maintenance: The advanced technology and unique materials require specialized knowledge for repairs and maintenance.
- Vulnerability to Specific Attacks: Although resilient, the Psimitar can be damaged or broken by attacks targeting its structural integrity.
- Limited Accessibility: The unique materials and advanced construction methods make the Psimitar rare and difficult to reproduce.
- Training Requirement: Effective use requires mastery of Morgukai martial and weapon arts, limiting its usability to those with specialized training.
DESCRIPTION
The Psimitar was created by Jedi Master Romi Jade, under the alias of Mother Askani, after she lost most of her connection to the Force. The Psimitar was a pivotal tool for Romi Jade after her disconnection from the Force. It allowed her to continue her mission and defend against dark side threats using the abilities she was able to recuperate - her telepathic abilities. She designed the Psimitar to enhance and focus her mental powers. Her knowledge of both ancient Jedi techniques and advanced technology allowed her to construct this unique weapon.
