- A set of Knuckle-Dusters that are alchemically treated through the force. As such, it retains all capabilities of a typical Sith Sword. It is extremely resilient to any damage, is electromagnetically sealed to be able to withstand weapons such as a Lightsaber, and in theory block blaster bolts. It also is able to absorb Force Lightning, and even other Electrical based energy, store it as a capacitor, and then release it into a blast when striking. As such, one could in theory, charge the weapon themselves to increase the physical output of the weapon. The staple effect of a "Lightning Rod" for any Sith or Dark Jedi who attempt to harm the wearer with Electrical based force powers and the like.
- A unique application of the Knuckle-Dusters, a tribute to their fight in the Kaggath Tournament, is that the user of the weapons, can project themselves in various ways in order to overwhelm the opponent with physical strikes. This can be limited to just an extra set of arms that are generated of the force, all the way up to a full construction of themselves that can perform and attack as they would. Creating "Shadow Clones" reminiscent of Phantoms, and Doppelgangers.
- The secondary Unique application of these weapons, is rooted deeply in applications of Martial Arts combat. Drawing from the likes of Matukai Martial Arts, and Echani Martial Arts. As both cultures draw heavily of using their body to their maximum potential. Thus the wielder is able to draw themselves deeply within the force and fortify their body, strengthen their physical attacks, and even use a unique form and application of Force Weapon, directly pertaining to "The Way of the Monolith." This can allow the wielder to withstand extreme physical punishment, resist high levels of pain, and stay standing in the fight despite all odds.
- Alchemically Treated like a Sith Sword, Retains all Sith Sword Effects.
- Can create/generate Shadow Clones, or Phantom Limbs to strike opponents.
- Increases Users physicality to extreme degrees. Striking Harder, Faster, Stronger than normal.
- In theory can block Blaster bolts, and Lightsabers.
- The actual application of blocking weaponry requires precise usage of the knuckle-dusters to block the weaponry in question.
- Due to the small size, "punching" blaster bolts can still harm the user's hand unless they wear other protective equipment.
- Requires the force to us, thus Force Nullification and Suppressive effects can hamper effects.
- As a very close range weapon, it requires one to be extremely close to an opponent.
- Near to no actual protection of the hands.
Delsin Shaw fought toe to toe with the man known as Taregh Garon. A Mountain of a man who fought diligently and with a strength and speed that should not have been possible. As such, Delsin found a respect for the man. Enjoying the fight to near death and only coming to a close by a bell-ringing finish. While Delsin had been proclaimed the winner, after the Kaggath had been completed, Delsin sought out the man, and decided as a form of friendly rivalry and friendship between the Mandalorian-turned-Imperal, and the Sith-turned-Mandalorian.
As an homage to their duel, Delsin presented a special set of Knuckle dusters that epitomized their fight. With Delsin drawing heavily upon his aspect of the force to augment the fight in his favor, using Force Lightning, and Shadow Clones, while Taregh implementing a solid foundation of using the force to augment his speed, strength and resiliency against Delsin's powers and speed.
The Aspect of making the weapon akin to a Sith sword, is a light-hearted jab of how Taregh took damage from a blast of Force Lightning directly to the chest, and still fought valiantly, and with gusto. While also allowing Taregh to use the same powers that Delsin used against him in the fight. Taunting him with what was done. However, still directly appealing to Taregh's Combat style of becoming the Immovable object and unbreakable wall that was this mountain of a man.
As such, this a gift of possible friendship, and comradery for the duel, and a "Thank you" for the time spend in the ring.
