  The Obscura Crystal is a non-sentient, non-kyber mineral viable crystal for lightsaber use. Found in geode formations across desolate worlds, it is distinguished by its smoky-gray coloration and faintly misted interior. When set in a lightsaber, it projects a blade whose edges blur and shimmer like smoke, making it difficult for opponents to gauge its true reach and angle. While this effect grants the wielder an element of deception, the crystal is not without drawbacks. The blade lacks the heat intensity of true kyber, and the mineral itself is fragile and easily fractured if mishandled or exposed to sustained stress. As a result, Obscura Crystals are rarely favored for direct combat but hold value among duelists who prefer misdirection, intimidation, or psychological advantage.
