- Modularity: Yes (Can be grown in different lengths)
- Production: Semi Unique
- Material: Amphistaff Tissue
- Classification: Lightsaber
- Size: Average
- Weight: Light
- Organic Lightsabers that come in multiple varieties
- All Organic Lightsabers have Dual phase function
- Capable of Cutting through nearly any Conventional material and deflecting blaster bolts
- Senses and obeys owner.
- Photosynthetic and Capable of Self Repair
- Rip and Tear: Lightsaber blades are able to cut through almost any material save another Lightsaber or Alchemized objects. These are no different, their power created by an organ serving the same function as a Kyber Crystal. This organ tissue is very similar to the properties of a Lambent
- Polyp-Source: Unlike other Lightsabers there isn't a mechanical part to be found amongst them. They extend from Polyps like normal Amphistaffs, The Polyps that such weapons normally come from being meditated on and imbued with the Force before they have matured to the point Amphistaffs come out of them. They are Photosynthetic and heal and recharge by being left in the sun or by syphoning off Force Energy from their owner in extremely minute amounts
- Attunement: Once fully matured, they are incredibly loyal, refusing to activate for any but their owner, and they can sense each other from farther away than normal Lightsabers, the creature tuning the color of its blade to best reflect the owner's nature, and is more easily manipulated through telekinesis. They also coil around the user's wrist or waist for easy transport. If created by a Dark Side User They take on the properties of mechanical Lightsabers with Synthetic Crystals--they become slower to swing, but have a slightly increased chance of breaking the blades of Bio Organic Sabers not attuned as they are, as well as the blades of mechanical sabers with natural crystals, while lacking the spontaneous short out risk of a synth blade. (Dark Side Attuned bio sabers however, are still vulnerable to being broken by synthetic powered Lightsaber blades in mechanical hilts)
- Variety: Such Weapons can be grown in a number of ways:
Lightsaber Shoto
Long Handle Lightsaber
Lightsaber Pike/Spear
Great Lightsaber
Lightfoil
Fight Anywhere: Like mechanical Lightsabers, These can operate in space, and special organs in their body take the place of bifurcating cyclical ignition pulses, allowing them to operate underwater also.
Deflector: Bio Organic Lightsaber blades can deflect blaster bolts just like normal ones
Snake bite: The hilt will secrete mild doses of Amphistaff venom if another attempts to pick it up with their bare flesh who isn't an owner
Resilience: Due to having mini versions of Amphistaff Power Glands, the hilts are difficult to destroy with Lightsabers
Dual Phase: Special organs in these creatures allow them to mimic the properties of dual phase machinery in mechanical hilts.
Re-attunement Strengths: Should a Jedi re-attune a Bio Organic Blade made by a Dark Side user, that blade becomes far easier to channel the Force through, allowing potentially for more increased cutting power over that of even a synthetically powered blade. If a Sith re-attunes one made by a Jedi, it becomes vastly easier to control with telekinesis, making two or even three excellent for telekinetic Lightsaber Combat
Flexibility: Even a standard, single blade has great tactical flexibility, it's lower half able to bend to create a curved hilts, and the pommel can wrap around one belonging to another mechanical Lightsaber or another bio Organic Lightsaber, creating a sort of Ad-Hoc double bladed lightsaber. This blade can be combined with other variants, mechanical or bio Organic, allowing for interesting strategies to be employed
WEAKNESSES
- Cortosis: Most Lightsaber Blades shut off when exposed to pure Cortosis. These are no different. In addition, the weapon will be heavily stunned, and must have a few minutes wrapped around the owner or be left out in the sun for a few minutes to recover properly.
- Slugthrowers: Bullets splash against these blades, melting and potentially causing splash damage
- Force Voids: While they can still move, they cannot activate their blades in Force Voids
- Sonics: Sonic bolts bend around most Lightsaber blades
- Paddle Beams: Paddle beams can bend around most Lightsaber blades
- Anti Vong: Weapons that harm Vong Tissue, such as Alpha Red or Baffer Pollen are an immense threat, Alpha Red causing total necrosis within one hour unless cure is applied within the first 14 Minutes. Baffer Pollen flat out causes them to deactivate until it's cured of it or washed off
- Separation Anxiety: Bio Organic Lightsabers start to go feral and break down if away from their owner too long, partly because they are attuned so immensely to the owner's life force. When the Owner dies of natural causes, it goes into a state of advanced hibernation until someone else comes along and attunes it to themselves. If the Owner dies suddenly and violently, the shock could drive it mad or even kill it. Either way it's unusable unless significant efforts are made to rectify the issues mentioned
- Re-attunment Weakness: If a Sith or Dark Jedi Created Bio Organic Lightsaber is re-attuned by a Jedi, it's blade is rendered permanently white, like a bled kyber that has been healed in a standard blade. It becomes slightly faster to swing than a synthetically powered blade in a mechanical hilt but never quite the speed of a a Lightsaber being swung with a natural crystal powering it, or a Bio-Organic Lightsaber created in the traditional method. If a Sith or Dark Jedi "bleeds" one made by a Jedi like how you do in a mechanical hilt, it becomes much slower to swing than even a mechanical hilt with a synthetic blade or a bio Organic Lightsaber created by a Sith.
- Random Colors, Random Variants, Random thickness: Due to the quirks of how they are created when using the Jedi Method, the color of a given blade is often completely A Jedi might end up with a blue, green, yellow, even a red blade (Note: If the blade is red, it is often a lighter red than that of a Sith Blade, though there are rare exceptions, with some being the exact color of a Sith blade or even redder than what most Sith use. Blades made by inexperienced creator's often typically have colors that are paler variations of what are used in standard Jedi sabers, and have slightly weaker cutting power, while more experienced users with typically have standard colors). Even a Sith cannot typically control what the color of the blade will be (If in colors other than Sith Red, they are typically darker shades of the colors used by Jedi Blades. The final nature of the product can also not be determined--will it be a standard size hilt or something like a polearm or shoto hilt? The "thickness" of the blade and hilt made also occasionally vary, from a blade as thin as a pen, with a hilt to match, or something like a Great Lightsaber hilt and a suitably large blade. Jedi Tradition for the creation process accepts the final product as given, and try to learn how to use it to the best of their Abilities, while Sith will often destroy a final product they don't like and start over until they get what they want
Bio Organic Lightsabers have become more commonplace in the due to reliable development of the technology, which was developed during the Gulag Era as an alternative to resource intensive machinery or looking for caves full of natural crystals. Capable of all the feats of a normal Lightsaber, with the added bonus of being easier to care for than normal. Bonding more tightly to their owners, the user of Bio Sabers enjoy quality, a life long bond, and a glimpse into the future.
In order to create one traditionally, Force Users, particularly Jedi, must locate a very young Vong Polyp in a very very early stage of development and immediately began meditating, using the power of the Force to slowly but surely alter it genetically over a course of two days of Nonstop meditation, This Polyp will mutate and eventually Amphistaffs will emerge from it as normal. If the effort was successful, at least one creature growing from the Polyp in addition to Ampistaff's still attached to it will be a Bio Organic Lightsaber, with the others being normal Amphistaffs, its organs all completely altered to serve as the power source and means to form and hold the blade.
Sith and sometimes others create them alternately by taking a Polyp and constantly injecting Sith Alchemical Products into the Polyp as it matures while meditating as a Jedi does, with the rest of the process continuing as it does in the Jedi Method. Blades created this way can be reattuned by others but will lose whatever properties they previously had.
Bio Organic Lightsabers can come in any color, but the color is completely random no matter who is making it.
