Why I want the DarkStaff.
IC: Well, it's the DarkStaff lol. Muad would use it for a plethora of reasons. As he's mostly focused on making things, I can see him using it to create many items. Perhaps a personal ship with a bit of a tweak. New species. New study. The possibility is endless.
OOC: I have been wanting to toy with messing with Muad. Have him go truly insane? Have him be conflicted over using it. Possibly having him be corrupted. There's a lot I can do with it. I like the fact that the DarkStaff can kark him. I also would use it for more items, force imbued. Sithspawn variants. I've had several ideas of making juggernauts for companion NPC, and this would work well.
But the main reason I want it isn't for it's power, but the story telling aspect and it's impact on Muad specifically. He's been a Sith in his infancy, but even then, he marched to his own beat. He wasn't broken by his master, instead Muad manipulated his master. He's been tortured by Sith and Jedi and laughed. He survived fighting with the Mando'ade when they despised the Sith, when Muad was still the Mad Knight of the Sith. Nothing has broken him. Even with the Mandragora, the Patron and Muad have an understanding. Muad does what he wants, when he wants.
Strapped to the Phobis Devices, stepping on the Winged Goddess' tail, being tortured by one of the old deities of the Mando'ade, Sith spirits attempting to kill/possess/destroy him ... In the end nothing has been able to change/affect/alter the Mad Master.
The DarkStaff gives me the opportunity to use a primal power to finally open an avenue of change that will be frightening, fun, and hilarious.
So yeah, that's my reasoning lol.
