DESCRIPTION

Echo is Mishel Kryze’s companion blade—built in the quiet between recovery and readiness. Crafted using a Dawn Crystal of Dagobah, it embodies her re-emergence after trauma and her acceptance of fluid identity. Its teal or seagreen blade tone subtly shifts with her state of mind, a quiet but constant reflection of her emotional landscape.

Constructed from durasteel and permabronze, the saber is both elegant and enduring. The Jenruax alignment crystal enhances her Ataru-leaning movements, while the deflection emitter ensures Echo still carries its weight in defensive utility. It is short, reactive, and utterly hers—a balance to the larger, more grounded Mercy.

Echo is best deployed in close-quarters dueling or as part of a dual-wielding strategy. Its ion cell enables consistent recharge in kinetic motion, and its bifurcating ignition pulse makes it viable in underwater environments. Mishel crafted it not just as a weapon—but as a signal: that she is still here, still standing, and still choosing the Light.

Beneath its wrappings, the saber bears a whisper-etched inscription: “I am the voice you forgot you had.”
