Preface on Saber Focusing Lenses
A lightsaber's focusing lens is the final voice of the crystal. It takes the raw resonance of the kyber and gives it shape, edge, and stability. The wrong lens makes a saber unreliable; the right one defines the weapon's style as surely as the hand that wields it.

At the most basic level, a lens bends energy the way glass bends light. In mundane optics this is called refraction. As light slows while passing through denser material, it bends. That bending is what lets a lens focus, spread, or redirect a beam.

Convex Lenses: Converge energy to a point, producing a sharper and more intense blade.
Concave Lenses: Spread energy outward, softening or widening its profile.
Composite Lenses: Combine multiple elements to cancel out flaws and balance properties.

Artisans layer lenses to correct distortions or sharpen focus. In sabercraft this principle holds true. No single lens offers perfection in stability, precision, and destructive power. By combining two or three, an artisan can balance trade-offs, correct weaknesses, and amplify strengths. But there are limits.

In practice, two to three lenses is the maximum. Anything more creates instability and fuzziness. The energy field grows erratic, turning a weapon of discipline into a hazard.

Remember:
  • The crystal is the heart, resonating with the wielder's intent.
  • The lens is the voice, shaping how that intent becomes a blade.

Do not confuse possibility with wisdom. Just because you can force four lenses together does not mean you should.

Poor (–1)
Standard (0)
Strong (+1)
Excellent (+2)

The plain focusing lens is the unsung hero. It sharpens, defines, and makes the blade a true tool rather than a wild torch. Every saber should have one, though few ever give it thought.


Single Lenses

Adegan Lens

Preface on Saber Focusing Lenses

A lightsaber's focusing lens is the final voice of the crystal. It takes the raw resonance of the kyber and gives it shape, edge, and stability. The wrong lens makes a saber unreliable; the right one defines the weapon's style as surely as the hand that wields it.

At the most basic level, a lens bends energy the way glass bends light. In mundane optics this is called refraction. As light slows while passing through denser material, it bends. That bending is what lets a lens focus, spread, or redirect a beam.

Convex Lenses: Converge energy to a point, producing a sharper and more intense blade.
Concave Lenses: Spread energy outward, softening or widening its profile.
Composite Lenses: Combine multiple elements to cancel out flaws and balance properties.

Artisans layer lenses to correct distortions or sharpen focus. In sabercraft this principle holds true. No single lens offers perfection in stability, precision, and destructive power. By combining two or three, an artisan can balance trade-offs, correct weaknesses, and amplify strengths. But there are limits.

In practice, two to three lenses is the maximum. Anything more creates instability and fuzziness. The energy field grows erratic, turning a weapon of discipline into a hazard.

Remember:
  • The crystal is the heart, resonating with the wielder's intent.
  • The lens is the voice, shaping how that intent becomes a blade.

Do not confuse possibility with wisdom. Just because you can force four lenses together does not mean you should.


Poor (–1)
Standard (0)
Strong (+1)
Excellent (+2)

The plain focusing lens is the unsung hero. It sharpens, defines, and makes the blade a true tool rather than a wild torch. Every saber should have one, though few ever give it thought.

Canon & Legends Crystals
NameEffect
Adegan crystal (Kathracite, Relacite, Danite, Mephite, Pontite)A Force-attuned kyber crystal that bonds with a wielder, able to hold and amplify a small amount of their power. Commonly used in lightsaber construction; five known subtypes include mephite.
A basic member of the Adegan family, commonly used by Jedi as a lightsaber focusing crystal for millennia. Considered the weakest of the Adegan types, producing blades with lower energy output but stable resonance.
A mid-tier Adegan crystal. Channels energy less efficiently than mephite but more effectively than relacite, producing blades with moderate cutting power. Often used in Jedi training sabers for reduced lethality.
An Adegan crystal of low potency. Provides weaker energy channeling than danite or mephite, resulting in blades with reduced cutting power. Historically used in Jedi lightsabers despite its limited effectiveness.
A high-grade Adegan crystal valued for producing powerful, stable blades with strong cutting ability. More efficient at channeling energy than kathracite, relacite, or danite. Considered second only to pontite in strength.
The rarest and most powerful Adegan crystal. Produces exceptionally strong, stable blades with the highest cutting and energy channeling capacity of its family. Highly prized among Jedi for its potency.
Ilum crystalA high-quality kyber crystal found in the caves of Ilum. Comparable to mephite and pontite in strength, it produces strong, stable blades ideal for Jedi. Traditionally acquired during the Padawan rite known as The Gathering.
Kyber crystalThe core focusing element of every lightsaber, attuned through the Force to produce the blade. Different crystals or substitutes (gems, pearls, stones, even remains or machinery) create unique colors and effects, ranging from enhanced Force abilities to specialized blade properties. Natural crystals provided the most stable blades, while Sith often forged synthetic red crystals that yielded more powerful and sometimes unstable effects.
BondarConverts saber energy into a stunning discharge rather than a lethal cut. Strikes can briefly stun or incapacitate an opponent, making it a favored choice for training sabers during the Old Republic era.
DamindProduces a wider, longer blade than standard, improving deflection against blaster fire. Originates from the planet Daminia; mineral form known as damindium.
Dantari crystalKyber crystals native to Dantooine, often discovered in kinrath egg chambers. Valued by Jedi for lightsaber construction; strongly Force-attuned and resonant, they enhance the wielder's connection to the Force while in use.
Dragite crystalGenerates a blade that resonates loudly on impact, delivering minor sonic damage in addition to the normal strike. Found in the D'olop Mountain Range on M'haeli, valued both as a power source and for saber use.
Dragite gemFragile kyber crystal from M'haeli that produces a loud hum when set in a lightsaber. On impact, the blade resonates with sonic force, releasing shockwaves that disorient or cause minor sonic damage in addition to the strike.
DurindfirePrecious crystal from Tatooine that alters a lightsaber's blade to shine with a distinctive silver glow. Traditionally carried by the Halcyon/Horn Jedi lineage. Also used by Jawas for protective lenses against harsh desert sunlight.
EralamRare crystal once mined on Erai's third moon. Produces a clear, refined, and superior lightsaber beam with heightened precision and cutting performance. Mineral form known as eraladium.
FirkrannDense crystal from Rafa V that imbues a lightsaber blade with an electrical charge, making it especially effective against droids. Historically favored by some Sith Lords.
JenruaxA refined form of Opila, purified of impurities. Produces a blade with enhanced agility, making it highly effective for deflecting blaster fire and improving saber control.
KashaTraditional Cerean meditation crystal engraved with focusing patterns. When set in a lightsaber, it clears the wielder's mind of distractions, improving focus and mental clarity even in combat.
OpilaCrystal mined from the Fyrth system asteroid field. Generates an intense, high-energy blade capable of cutting through most materials with speed and efficiency.
PhondA rare byproduct of alloy creation under unknown conditions. Produces a fiercely burning lightsaber blade, noted for its volatile and fiery energy output.
RubatCrystal from Phemis that sharpens the clarity and definition of a lightsaber blade, making it easier for the wielder to track and land precise strikes. Enhances speed of attack and accuracy in combat.
Sigil crystalRare and costly crystal from the Sigil system. Produces an exceptionally potent blade with a searing effect, increasing the damage dealt by strikes. Known to have been wielded by both Jedi and Sith, including Marka Ragnos.
UpariBrittle but versatile crystal found near forest worlds. Its properties can be shaped by skilled Jedi, producing a variety of effects. When cut or refined, especially by Wookiee artisans, its power increases significantly.

Exotic / Rare / Visual Crystals (Canon/Legends)
NameEffect
Barab ingotRare kyber crystal from Barab I, found within Barab ore on the planet's irradiated surface. Naturally hot to the touch and faintly radioactive, it produces a fiery blade that burns with such intensity it can set struck targets aflame.
Blackwing CrystalFormed through exposure to the Sith-engineered Blackwing virus. When set in a lightsaber, it produces a dark, ash-like blade. These corrupted crystals were discovered on Dathomir during a Blackwing outbreak tied to undead creatures.
Bravis Sith CrystalSith-forged crystal that generates a crimson blade with a sparkling appearance. Primarily used in Bravis Sith lightsabers, giving their weapons a distinct visual signature.
Crimson Prowler CrystalProduces a blade with a distinct sparkling aura, identical in effect to the Bravis Sith Crystal but distributed under a different name.
Compressed energy crystal (CEC)Produces a blade with a thinner core and a distinctive pulsating appearance, resulting in greater visual precision and a tighter beam.
CorrosionA compressed energy crystal variant that creates a corrosive blade; contact with an opponent causes their body or equipment to corrode and deteriorate.
Corusca gemCreates an exceptionally durable and razor-keen blade, capable of slicing through transparisteel and other dense materials with ease. The gem's immense hardness makes it one of the most powerful and destructive crystals when used in a lightsaber, though it is vulnerable at rare shatterpoints that can cause the entire gem to collapse if struck precisely.
Dahgee crystalProduces a lightsaber blade with a distinct zigzagging energy pattern, giving it a chaotic and intimidating edge in combat. The distorted blade makes parries less predictable, while the dark silver core reinforces striking power.


(Canon/Legends)
NameEffect
FocusStrengthens a wielder's connection to the Force, especially during the exertion of Force powers. Commonly aids in clarity, meditation, and attunement, allowing for steadier control of both lightsaber combat and Force techniques.
Ghostfire crystalProduces a nearly invisible, dim blade that generates little to no sound. The blade leaves behind ghostly afterimages as it moves, disguising its true position and disorienting opponents. Silent, illusory, and difficult to detect, the ghostfire crystal was highly prized both for stealth and psychological advantage in combat.
Gungan crystalA novelty crystal tied to the Ultimate FX Gungan Lightsaber, primarily appearing in Clone Wars Adventures. Its unusual effect was more aesthetic than practical, making it a collectible oddity rather than a combat staple.
Healing crystalVaries. Enhances Force healing, accelerating recovery and aiding treatment of injuries.
HurrikaineVaries. Enhances Force healing, accelerating recovery and aiding treatment of injuries.
KatakVaries. Lightsabers powered by this crystal drain the life force of those nearby, weakening them over time. Prolonged exposure can prove fatal, and strikes siphon portions of an opponent's vitality to the wielder.
Kimber stoneVaries. Produces a non-lethal lightsaber blade, originally considered unsuitable for combat.
Krayt dragon pearlColors vary (blue, green, red, white, black). Produces a lightsaber blade of intense power, highly destructive, and marked by a distinctive howling resonance.
LambentEmits a pale golden light, brightness adjustable by thought. In a lightsaber, it resonates differently than kyber—providing a faint empathic link to the Yuuzhan Vong, allowing Jedi to sense or presense them where the Force failed.
Lava crystalProduces a heavy, molten-looking blade resembling flowing lava. The blade radiates intense heat, with sparks, flames, and even bits of molten energy splashing or dripping from it.
Life DrainEmits a green blade infused with parasitic energy. Each strike siphons vitality from opponents, restoring the wielder's own strength.
LignanColor varies. Produces a blade that burns hotter and lasts longer than standard lightsabers, allowing it to cut through materials more quickly. The crystal also amplifies the wielder's connection to the dark side, enhancing their Force power.
Lorrdian gemstoneNo fixed color. Lightsabers attuned with these gems grant the wielder heightened perception of an opponent's movements, allowing them to anticipate strikes and blaster fire. This manifests as a natural combat precognition, sharpening defenses and reaction speed.
LuxumTypically a pale green crystal, though color could vary slightly. Lightsabers built with Luxum emitted blades carrying a subtle ionizing effect, making them especially effective against droids and mechanical constructs.
MariliteWhile not a true kyber, marilite could serve as a substitute energy source in weapon components, including blasters and even lightsabers in some cases. Crystals fashioned from marilite lacked the resonance of kyber but were still capable of channeling energy, making them a practical—if inelegant—option for low-tier lightsabers, artifice crafting, and augmentations.
Meditation crystalA crystal from Tython that produced a steady, luminous blade (color varied, often blue) while deepening the wielder's connection to the Force. When set in a lightsaber, it helped the user maintain focus, conserving stamina and restoring energy during combat by reinforcing meditative balance with every strike.
Nak'tra crystalA rare crystal from the Myyydril Caverns of Kashyyyk, often dark-hued, that produced a potent, deadly blade. Highly valued for its combat strength, it enhanced lightsabers with sharper cutting power and was considered a prized weapon material, its very name meaning "deadly" in the Myyydril tongue.
NextorA crystal mined from the mountains of M'haeli, typically variable in color, that produced a volatile yet powerful blade. Lightsabers fitted with Nextor crystals generated unstable energy, amplifying cutting strength but making the weapon unpredictable.
Nihil SmokestoneA smoky-gray mineral used by the Sorcerers of Rhand, it radiated a mental resonance that acted as both transmitter and receiver, enabling its wielder to project commands and seize control of nearby minds, turning victims into obedient Pawns.
NishaloriteDark-gray to blue-black in hue, Nishalorite stones resonated with planetary magnetism. When set into a lightsaber, they produced a dense, weighty blade that intensified whenever it aligned toward magnetic north, giving the weapon an almost compass-like pull of power. Valued at 12,500 credits, they were prized by seekers who discovered them on worlds with strong magnetic fields.
ObsidianProduces a red blade when installed in a lightsaber, carrying properties similar to corrupted kyber; blade manifests with a sharp, violent presence tied to dark side energy.
Permafrost crystalImbues the lightsaber with a cold, frost-like energy; blades cut with chilling intensity and are uniquely attuned only to the Force-user who tunes them.
QixoniGreatly amplifies a lightsaber's power and enhances the wielder's Force abilities. Formed in supernova remnants, the crystal's resonance is volatile and most often aligned with the dark side.
Rainbow gemProduces a shimmering, prismatic blade that resonates with life energy. Rare silicon-based lifeforms from Gallinore, rainbow gems glow with their own inner light and can be used as lightsaber crystals. Their living nature lends a heightened vitality and unique brilliance to the blade.
RhyoliteProduces a shimmering, prismatic blade that resonates with life energy. Rare silicon-based lifeforms from Gallinore, rainbow gems glow with their own inner light and can be used as lightsaber crystals. Their living nature lends a heightened vitality and unique brilliance to the blade.
Rol StoneProduces a brilliant crimson blade with heightened luster. Extremely rare and valuable, Rol Stones were prized both as gemstones for fine jewelry and as lightsaber crystals, channeling intense power into a saber's blade.
Ruusan crystalDoes not alter blade performance but aids the wielder in focusing the Force. Highly valued for beauty and often used as currency in the Core Worlds; their use was lost after the Ruusan Reformation.
SapithProduces an intense yet highly stable blade, easier to control than most others.
Seeker crystalForms a pink blade that attunes to the wielder through the Force, allowing them to sense nearby beings and detect hidden dangers.
Sorian crystalProduces a blade that releases a surge of power on contact, its fiery shimmer distracting opponents and destabilizing their guard, granting the wielder opportunities for sudden counterstrikes.
StygiumBest known for its cloaking properties; when forged into a lightsaber, the crystal augments stealth, shrouding the wielder and enhancing their ability to remain unseen through the Force.
Synthetic lightsaber crystalArtificially forged crystals that generate more powerful but less stable blades; often stronger than natural crystals, with potential to overload and "break" an opponent's saber. Variants include compressed (thin, precise blade) and unstable (crackling, sparking, highly damaging but unreliable).
Tainted Nightsister CrystalSoaked in Dathomir's ichor, these corrupted kyber crystals emit a blade wreathed in choking, putrid green smoke, its Force connection twisted by Nightsister magic.
Thaissen crystalNaturally glows faintly in the presence of Force-sensitives, serving as a detector for Jedi or Sith. Illumination is only visible in darkness.
Thontiin crystalStrong healing resonance — aids Jedi healers in easing patient pain. When set in a saber, it allows the wielder to endure and fight through debilitating pain, channeling restorative energy even in combat.
TsilSentient crystals capable of reflecting and amplifying light and life energy, dramatically heightening Force sensitivity nearby. On Nam Chorios, even slight Force use triggered devastating Force storms. They communicated telepathically through images, and their light-amplifying ability could render drochs harmless.
Ultima-PearlProduces a refined, powerful blade when installed in a lightsaber, though it requires exceptional skill to align properly. Known for its purity and resilience, Jedi healer Cilghal famously wielded a saber powered by an Ultima Pearl.
VarpelineProduces a blade with an intense cutting edge and a sharp, distinctive sound on impact. Its density allows it to slice through some of the toughest materials more efficiently than standard lightsaber blades.
VelmoriteProduces a fine, thin blade ideal for graceful, fluid, and elegant combat styles. Commonly associated with high-quality Velmorite energy swords.
VexxtalCommonly attuned to the dark side; blades forged with this crystal leave a corrupting aura on those they wound, inflicting lingering spiritual and physical taint.
Viridian crystalProduces a lightsaber blade with a rare shimmering hue, associated with balance and calm precision in combat.
Zophis crystalCreates an unstable, devastating blade capable of cutting through heavy durasteel plating with destructive resonance.
