Special Features:
- Alchemized Agrinium - Excessive durability in the hilt of the lightsaber which makes it both lightsaber resistant and capable of reflecting blaster bolts. Due to being made of agrinium over durasteel, the material is also much more durable from radiation and lighter than alchemized durasteel.
- Alchemized Terentatek Leather Grip Ensarement - More for appearance than function, the terentatek leather was alchemized with Darth Atrophia's own blood and imbued with the force to give the twin lightsabers a sense of "loyalty", in that if someone who was not Darth Atrophia or related to her by blood were to pick up the sabers and make contact with the leather grip they would experience a sensation of burning during contact with the grip and a quickened fall to the dark side with increased exposure. (This does not mean that someone who picks this up will immediately become a dark sider, this is meant to be included as a flavor piece to make this a special snowflake submission and also keep people from touching my things in the future. Unless they like the pain, in which case; by all means)
- Special Crystals - The Sigil crystals placed in both lightsabers imparted a searing effect into the blades of both lightsabers which caused both blades to become incredibly more potent and potentially deal greater inflicted damage, seen mainly as cutting through a blast door several seconds quicker than a regular lightsaber - it will not be capable of cutting through any high-density materials quickly, just as a regular lightsaber would not. The Barab Ingot crystals located in the twin sabers also leaves an effect present on the blade of the lightsaber, in the form of an extremely volatile blade that burned to the point of appearing almost flame-like, much like an unstable lightsaber. Due to the presence of these crystals, objects and people struck by these lightsaber blades are prone to small flames being ignited at the point of contact and flammable substances are prone to combustion on contact.
Two lightsabers that were created and alchemized by the Sith Lord Darth Atrophia, these sabers are an example of both Sith Alchemy and Sith Magic. Although the uses of both aforementioned abilities are only really used in their most basics forms, as this is a lightsaber and not an amulet or stave, the craftsmanship and care put into the lightsabers is immediately noticeable by simply picking up or touching the leather grips on the hilt. Simply making physical contact with the leather grip is enough to leave a searing sensation on the portion of the body that makes contact with the lightsaber hilt - although special alchemically treated clothing and force nullification resin might prevent the effects of this - in a perceived notion of "loyalty" to its creator, a novelty adaption of imbuing objects with the force through Sith magic.
For those who are able to deal with the pain of being constantly burned - and let's face it, if you're looting this Sith Lord's lightsaber that is probably just the beginning of your weird interests - there is also the novel adaption of the basic Talisman of Ensnarement doubled with the pain-inducing effects of the leather. Due to the addition of Darth Atrophia's own blood during the process of introducing these trap-like effects, these do not effect both Darth Atrophia and those who are directly blood related to her. The addition of the effects of the talisman of ensnarement in the grip causes those who make sustained contact with the lightsaber to slowly fall to the dark side, and over a very long period of time (up to the writer) will eventually become afflicted with the same corruption that many dark siders and Sith deal with.
