PRODUCTION INFORMATION
Manufacturer: Cerita Sarova | Michael Sardun | AEI | Primeval Fleet
Model: Custom Power Hammer
Affiliation: Michael Sardun
Modularity: No
Production: Unique
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Material: Imbued Phrik, Alchemized wroshyr wood, Qixoni crystal
Classification: Imbued war hammer
Size: One-handed
Length: 0.90m
Weight: 4.1kg
SPECIAL FEATURES
Sardun’s war hammer has was forged after a number of realizations.
First and foremost the need to somehow overcome the widespread use of quality heavy armor by the Mandalorians, which leaves them less vulnerable towards the more conventional approach of damaging your opponent. This inspired them to draw from existing technologies and techniques -- in this situation the power hammer and imbuing the head of the hammer with the Force.
The former has historically been very effective against armor already, shockwave generators implemented inside the head allowing the wielder to send their opponents flying, even those who were wearing heavy armor. The latter was an obscure technique popularized by the ancient Je’daii Order of Tython, which increased the cutting strength of an imbued blade to be able to shred most forms of metal.
It has been applied here in a slightly different way -- instead of applying it to an edge to sharp it, it’s been applied across the entire surface to focus the kinetic energy it dishes out and enhances it.
A Qixoni crystal has been embedded within the weapon and attuned to Sardun, which means that in the hands of anyone else the war hammer is just a heavy hammer with shockwave generators.
They called it Wo Taral, First Protector.

SPECIAL FEATURES
- The weapon is completely lightsaber resistant.
- The repulsor/shockwave generators embedded in the head of the hammer increases the potential force you can exert with the weapon, the head of the hammer is also enhanced through Force Imbuement, both effects together allow the hammer to do one thing and one thing really well: shatter and breach armor, up to and including beskar.
- (+) Difficult to destroy outright.
- (+) Does one thing and does it really well.
- (-) Heavier than other weapons that are inherently more effective than this one. Lightsaber, etc.
- (-) Ysalamiri fields will nullify the Force Imbuement effect and leave it a simple power hammer.
- (-) EMP effects will temporarily disable the shockwave generators.
- (--) Fighting someone who combines ysalamiri with EMP weaponry will be a bad time. It suddenly becomes just an overweight hammer with little benefit.
