Strengths:
- It’s a Fething Sith Sword: The Sith Sword is basically the cooler, older brother of the modern lightsaber. Not only can it block lightsaber strikes and reflect blaster bolts, it can absorb and release Force Lightning, and cut through most anything a lightsaber can (with a bit more effort). Nearly unbreakable and with an edge that never dulls, the Sith Sword is what the Dark Sider who wants a bit more oomph in her weapon chooses.
Weaknesses:
- And Yet: …It still ain’t a lightsaber. Lightweight and nimble as it may be, and with cutting power nearly unmatched, it simply isn’t as versatile as a lightsaber is. It can’t burn flesh, it has only a single edge. Trakata is, for obvious reasons, completely out of the question. And finally, because the blade actually has mass, the indescribably subtle, precise movements required to perform mass blaster deflection are nigh impossible.
Description: Kahre Narsa is a blade designed for quick and ferocious cuts, for malignant grace and vicious beauty in battle. Based on old Corellian designs, the Kahre Narsa is a true saber; a sword with a gently curved blade and a swept handguard. Unlike Nisha’s last creation, which was more of a general battlefield weapon, the Kahre Narsa is designed with dueling in mind, but it shouldn’t be discounted as a fairly useful war-sword, either; the design allows for more maneuverability and greater range of motion than the longsword which Nisha also owns, and its one-handed design means that it can be used with a shield, or perhaps an off-hand weapon.
