Intent: To create a variant to a canon tool previously used and destroyed
Development Thread: [ x ]
Manufacturer: Unknown Sith Lord
Model: Darkstaff
Affiliation: Self | [member=valashu Elahad]
Modularity: Zero
Production: Unique
Material: Alchemically Treated Wood
Classification: Staff
Size: One or Two Handed
Length: 1.001 meters
Weight: 7.257 kg
Special Features: Near Indestructible | Sentience
Strengths:
- [ Sentience ] ~ This staff, like its Chaos counterpart, is entirely sentient, able to be fully cognizant of its own accord
- [ Masterwork Creation ] ~ The staff, while not as powerful as its Chaos counterpart, is a Masterwork Creation with many powers and abilities: such as Teleportation on a limited scale* (at an absolutely full charge it is enough to go two ways, once), Force Nullification, Force Destruction** (never stronger than the Rank its user holds currently), and its strongest ability of Force Cloak at a Master Stealth Specialist
- [ Power ] ~ This staff is a leech, plain and simple. It will consume energy from every living being around it at all times, making it nearly impossible for being hidden while carrying it
- [ Dark Side Nexus ] ~ The power exuded by the staff has a dark effect on the surroundings, making the life hurt, ache, fear, and a massive barrage of other darkside countenance
- [ Sentience ] ~ At any time this staff may fully decide to turn every ounce of its amassed power towards its owner. As well, nearing a beacon of the light, in any of its many shapes or sizes, may have the effect of spontaneous attack
- [ Hallucinations ] ~ This staff has the major goal of destruction, and turning of all light to the dark, through which it will reach this means by sending dark images to its owner, making them believe they have performed evil acts
- [ Wounds ] ~ Unlike its Chaos variant, this staff will in no way protect its user from being harmed, as a matter of fact wounds sustained while using it tend to be infected by the Staffs energy, requiring major effort to heal, quickly too, or facing severe infections that will be fatal
However, the most notable thing to take away is, the Darkstaff was destroyed. Multiple times. Yet of course, again, here it has returned. Though there is bluntly obvious variations to what has been seen before: the staff is more polished, refined even, as if it was handled better by its creator. As well, the power wieldable is not the same. Of the previous iterations, each held some fashion of Darkside Tendrils able to drain from enemies or artifacts around it at a controlled designation. This iteration does not, it is an all around effect, one needed to keep itself powered, but that cannot be stopped unless by a willing donation of a continued supply - for whatever reason this quells it enough to go by unnoticed. In other words if the host willingly gives energy at a continuous, powerful, flow the staff will be sated. For a time.
The biggest note to make is, this staff seemingly does not possess the grand destructive power held by the previous. It cannot destroy planets, nor anything of such a massive scale.
The area of Force nullification, similar to a ysalamir, is so miniscule compared to the others, it is hardly worth mentioning. The user of the staff, and itself, are protected by a protruding aura that stops at less than a foot away. It also does not protect from everything within, but most notably from Force Light and Lightning. Potentially it can defend against mentalism as well. Despite the aura it possesses being small, the durability it holds is the same as all others. Save a sun, a hundred masters of the Force, or a blackhole, nothing can damage this weapon.
The staff does not possess any of the possession powers it held, or the transconfiguration abilities. It cannot make Sithspawn, Undead, or anything similar. Nor is the user able to have the staff bond others to the them, making wounds taken by the user inflicted upon another. As a matter of fact, the potential for healing was ever more negated, to the extent that the sustained in battle while wielding the Darkstaff will need surgical assistance or medical, basically taking paper cuts and making them the equivalent to a fatal wound.
The last thing worth mentioning is the Force Cloak effects, these are still in place. They are powerful, able to bypass sensor, and sight alike. It is the equivalent to a Master Stealther, able to make the most novice undetectable.
…:::STORYLINE DESCRIPTION:::…
The goal in which the staff was found, was not a raid based on the item. Rather it was a goal to find a stolen piece of equipment. Landing on some watermarked unknown planet, Valashu made haste to continue his tracking. When it became apparent that he was near, he stumbled upon Harley who it turned out would later become his continued fling. But currently, surprising as it was, the Polydroxol was also hunting g the very same people.Slowly moving, with a cautious flare, the duo came together in their common goal. Man by man, dead they fell. The two were a perfect match. The shapeshifter able to distract, the assassin able to step into a group and kill many in a single motion. The body count rose as fast as they moved in that fashion, all the while they neared the center of the encampment.
When at the border, Valashu finally took back to himself again, moving through from the outside to the in. At the absolute center, seemingly with the camp placed around it, he entered the largest of the established tents. Inside he stumbled across the yearned for gear, then just before leaving, he was forced to halt. The urge was to harsh to ignore, and so slowly he turned back to look at the staff that leaned there in the dim lights inside.
He took it. He never knew why.
Taking the staff to a Flow Walker he knew, the man gathered that the staff had seemingly appeared in this universe as if through a wormhole. Attempting to follow it further showed a darkness unmet, making him believe it was a similar history to the one Chaos knew. It was thrown through a blackhole, but instead of its destruction, the staff was sent to another universe all together. Hence the similarities yet vast differences.
