OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
PRODUCTION INFORMATION
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
  • Classification: Dagger, Sword
  • Size: Average
  • Weight: Average
SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Advanced Power Source: Designed with an iso-didact power source giving it a massive and long shelf life.
STRENGTHS
  • Self Repairing: Designed with the materia for protection but also the ability to repair itself over time with small damage being a few minutes to hours and sections of the suit being days.
  • Overly Engineered: Designed to defend as well as compact itself through molecular disruption
WEAKNESSES
  • Built in power source: Designed with its own internal power source that is long lasting but it is largely able to power the armor and systems of the vehicle but when damaged it is highly explosive.
  • Self repairing: While it can repair its own micro stress fractures the capabilities can take days to hours depending on how damaged they become from use.
  • Exotic Particles: Largely unknown and not seen in the galaxy before. It isn't invincible nor is it really strong but it reacts violently near dark and anti-matter which can disrupt and destroy it or even cause it to rupture and disintegrate.
DESCRIPTION
Designed as a counter weapon for soldiers and those looking to protect themselves from saber wielders. The Baton is based on lightfoils and light baton that while smaller could be used by more then just jedi or sith. The color customization for the blade color for different military units. The sheath made from lightweight materials to attach to belts.

As a weapon it is simple and plain not really as impressive allowing it to be produced for belts in larger numbers. THe hilts one time use with near solid hilts and an activating stud. Once the four hour power cell is expended the hilt is useful as a club to smack someone in the head. The blades contact burns is on par with a training saber for heat and contact.

The use of lightsaber batons in the past by jedi allowed for several to be used at once if needed but these are not made like that. Instead focusing on replacing the blade you have been using with another from the belt and once they are all gone you are out. More can be bought to replace your supply. It cannot deflect blaster bolts like a normal saber.

The saber itself being smaller and with weaker power, the power cell not being made to recycle the power reducing the cutting power of it. It can be used to parry but it cannot slice through metals. The blade itself is flatter instead of the normal round and looks like a small blade that can be used in the off hand. There are no slots or space for secondary crystals.

Over the years it has been altered dropping the lightsaber design and instead becoming a phrik blade improved with technologies. As a better means to be used to defend and for soldiers to be able to fight against force users with their lightsabers. The blade can repair themselves over time and with the design of it to be a small belt that can be carried for a squad.

Further enhancement and advances in their own technological achievements have kept Sasoris blade evolving and changing. With materia allowing it to alter its size as well as molecular disruption technology allowing it to compact itself into a much smaaller sheath a full sword can be worn on the wrist with just the hilt appearing or even withdrawn from the very end out of a molecular sheath.

This is a lightsaber, albeit a poorly-powered variant.

Current factory policy is such that lightsabers/variants will only be approved at Semi-Unique production.

As such, you'll either need to revamp the submission so that it does not possess the supreme cutting power of a lightsaber, or lower the production.

Is there a link to this policy? I looked in the standardized rules and didn't see it.

That aside before I go into revamping it, the cutting power is the only thing that needs to be changed? Correct?

It is edited though

It is simply the will of those who carry a larger stamp than mine.

That said, I need you clarify the line "it can be used to parry." Are we talking blaster bolts? Lightsabers? Sticks?

I also would like additional clarification on its affects upon those is strikes. What happens when it impacts flesh, etc.

the blade is smaller and not made to deflect blaster shots but it can be used to parry off another saber. It is weak like a training blade and not going to be delivering more then a contact burn which can partially disable. (example how Dooku taps Obi-Wan and suddenly he can't fight anymore)

A lightsaber baton, as per your primary source, was used by the Sith Lord Saaj Calician and his master, Dromika. They are miniaturized variations of lightsabers with hilts which resemble batons (essentially elongated). They are lightsabers.

From a canon perspective, this doesn't make any sense. A lightsaber baton is similar to a saber shoto in that it is a miniature lightsaber, it isn't a mock-saber, and isn't anything less than a regular saber besides length. What deflects a blaster bolt is the electromagnetic containment field which contains the plasma/energy which makes up the lightsaber, meaning this would still deflect a blaster bolt, unless the frequency of the field is altered (similar to adjusting the frequency to deflect ion paddle beamers) to cause blaster bolts to "bend" around the blade.

In a roleplay scenario, I cannot see this being used as an actual issue. Most saber duels, conflicts, and so on last under an hour - if they even reach the ten minute mark - and even then, it is up to the writer whether they will acknowledge this or not. A greater production of what is essentially a lightsaber is not going to be granted due to a rather modest charge time, and I suspect very few people will go into battle or any situation with a power cell that has less than at least 80% of its power left.

The example of Count Dooku vs Obi-Wan, I assume you're referring to Episode II when Anakin loses his hand and Obi-Wan is incapacitated via arm & leg injuries, is not a simple tap. A lightsaber is a blade which burns hot enough to cut right through a blast door (per Episode I, Separatist Station, scene) and sublimates that solid matter into gas (that's the colored smoke rolling off of the door while Qui-Gon cuts a hole through it, and is why the door didn't melt like chocolate onto the ground). A single touch of the blade with any form of momentum against the human body results in amputation and cauterization of said wounds, meaning every iota of flesh cut is going to be burned so severely that all the veins, arteries, capillaries, and so on are closed shut via burnt flesh. A "tap" against someone's arm and leg, let's say Obi-Wan's duel with Dooku here, results in extreme (fourth-degree) burns. I'm not sure how familiar you are with burn degrees, but a fourth degree burn is the atrophying of flesh due to the heat it is exposed to, or the death of cell tissue. That simple "tap" on Obi-Wan's arm and leg results in severe burns and wounds that rightly sent him to the floor. There was no paralyzing effect from the lightsaber, beyond sheer pain, it's very similar to being shot in the leg.

A training saber is a setting on a lightsaber which provides only very minor contact burns at worst, and it cannot cut through practically anything, due to the highly intensified electromagnetic containment field. They are still lightsabers.

A lightsaber baton, regardless of the setting, is still a lightsaber. The factory does not permit mass produced lightsabers, we allow semi-unique or below in production. Your factory judge has informed you of this, and you have been requested to edit your production to semi-unique.

If you do not change the production to semi-unique, this submission will be denied on concept.

My judge informed that I was being given a choice to either make it lower production or lower cutting power. I opted for option one given the choice
