DESCRIPTION

Constructed shortly after his master became absent from public, this lightsaber was created to reflected the swordstaff Curtis had wielded prior to creating a lightsaber of his own. As such, its design closely mirrors that of his swordstaff, while addressing some of the key failings of that weapon. More than just a ceremonial weapon, it is a symbol of how far Curtis has come, and how far he has yet to go.

Its hilt, and much of its metal work, is created with Songsteel. This is the same material Curtis used for the blade of his swordstaff, and allows the hilt to survive contact with a lightsaber blade. It employs two lightsaber crystals, a Sapith crystal to make the blade easier to control, and a Firkrann crystal to increase the power of the blade, allowing it to dispense electricity when making contact with a target.

For all the things it does right, the saberstaff still has faults. For one its size makes it a difficult weapon to wield, and in tight quarters it becomes almost impossible to use. Moreover, due to its length, the user must track the position of the blade when using it, with a lack of focus proving harmful or even deadly. And like many lightsabers, due to the components it uses, the weapon will not work underwater.
