Voraden Tarkos' broad saber is a direct reflection of his journey as a warrior within the Lilaste Order. During his training, Voraden was inspired by his master, Laphisto, who wielded a broad saber with great power and control. After witnessing the effectiveness of such a weapon in battle, Voraden became fascinated with the idea of combining the elegance of a lightsaber with the raw strength of a traditional broadsword.
Voraden chose to build his own broad saber, taking great care in its design and construction. He sought out Fyrirdögun metal for the hilt, due to its durability and resistance to damage. Voraden spent countless hours perfecting the weapon's balance, making use of a very light material for the blade to ensure that it could still be wielded with speed despite its broad form.
The decision to create a broad saber came from Voraden's desire to stand apart from traditional Sith lightsaber users, opting for a weapon that symbolized strength and dominance in battle. However, in doing so, he accepted the limitations of his weapon. While it excels at delivering devastating strikes, the broad saber lacks the omnidirectional cutting ability of a standard lightsaber, making it less precise in close-quarters or tight spaces.
Nevertheless, Voraden's broad saber serves as a testament to his unique fighting style and his ability to merge the philosophy of power with control, drawing inspiration from Laphisto's teachings. It is a weapon built not just for combat, but as a representation of Voraden's mastery over the dark side.
