SPECIAL FEATURES
- White Kyber crystal
- Ornate hilt design
- Bifurcating Cyclical-Ignition Pulse
- Switch between normal and katana modes.
- Blade Of Power: The lightsaber can cut through many materials with ease, especially in katana blade mode.
- Dive in the Depths: Thanks to the integrated bifurcating cyclical-ignition pulse, the lightsaber operates under water.
- Multiple Modes: There is a second switch on the lightsaber that can change lightsaber modes between a regular blade and a curved katana like blade.
- Slicing Power: In katana mode, the lightsaber blade can easily slice and cut with better sharpness and ease than a regular lightsaber. Materials such as beskar can still resist, but most other materials will be soft as butter to the blade.
- Cortosis: Cortosis will short the blade if contact is made.
- Beskar: Other materials such as songsteel and beskar can repel the lightsaber.
- Blocking: In katana mode, it is harder to block lightsaber bolts due to the katana flat shape. It is not impossible, just harder.
- Switching: Unlike with lightsaber mode switchers that change blade length, the mode switch is more... delicate. The blade must be deactivated to switch from one mode to another. This makes split second switches difficult to pull off, requiring intricate timing.
DESCRIPTION
Aoki Mira was brought up her entire life to be a rogue protector of the weak. She was trained to be the sword of swift and brutal justice unto the cruel. When she came into the New Imperial Order and joined the Imperial Knights, she believed she was on the right path. When making her imperial lightsaber, she combined Imperial and Atrisian designs into a unique lightsaber that both was blatantly New Imperial Order, and fitting to Atrisian fighting and tradition.
