Description: A fun alternative for Amadea to use in combat that requires excessive force or aggression. It fits well with her training in Djem So (Form V), and allows her to make strong counterattacks to dominate her opponent. It will have a brown leather carrier to be worn on the back. Activated with the force by an internal switch, it will utilize a timed shut off feature which will deactivate the blade in 3 minutes if the user has failed to press the manual deactivation stud located on the outside. An Ilum crystal will be used, and the color of the blade will be sage green at the end of construction.

Strengths and Weaknesses

+ Durable construction and lightweight.
+ Fits well with the wide and powerful strikes practiced in Djem So.
+ Can be thrown with the blade activated.
- Smaller blade area for repelling blaster fire as taught in Shien.
- Limits mobility.
- Casting material is not lightsaber resistant.

This is Acceptable, but I feel I must warn you. This is very vulnerable when dueling against another Lightsaber. Unlike in RL combat this can't be used to trap Lightsaber blades as it would be cut to pieces.

That said, I like the exotic nature of the weapon and have no issue stamping it.
