Permissions: N/A

Primary Source: Songsteel


PRODUCTION INFORMATION

Manufacturer: Novac's unnamed associate

Affiliation: Novac Lyrikal

Market Status: Closed Market

Model: N/A

Modularity: No

Production: Unique

Material: songsteel and leather.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Classification: Claw Gauntlets

Size: Average

Weight: Light


SPECIAL FEATURES

Songsteel Claws: Each natural claw is covered by a fitted songsteel sheath without extending the original length of Novac's claws.

Full Hand Coverage: The gauntlets protect the backs of the hands, fingers, palms, and natural claws across all four of Novac's hands.

Lightsaber Resistance: The songsteel construction provides substantial resistance against lightsaber strikes.

Low Noise Construction: The articulated plating is designed to avoid unnecessary metal on metal noise during movement.

Custom Fit: Each gauntlet was specifically fitted around Novac's four hands and natural claws.

Easily Removable: Novac only wears the gauntlets when he expects to enter combat and can quickly remove them when they are unnecessary.


STRENGTHS

Lightsaber Resistance: The songsteel plating allows the gauntlets to withstand contact with lightsabers far better than conventional metal.

Full Hand Protection: The gauntlets protect Novac's hands and natural claws rather than only covering the claw tips.

Low Noise: Their construction allows Novac to move without the pronounced metallic noise commonly associated with articulated armor.

Natural Claw Preservation: The gauntlets protect Novac's natural claws without changing their length or basic function.


WEAKNESSES

Limited Coverage: The gauntlets protect Novac's hands and claws but provide no meaningful protection to the remainder of his arms.

Damage: Although songsteel is highly resistant to lightsabers, the gauntlets are not indestructible and can still be damaged.

Specialized Fit: Their unusual construction is designed specifically around Novac's four hands and claws, making them difficult for another individual to use properly.

Combat Equipment: Novac does not normally wear the gauntlets outside situations where combat is expected.


DESCRIPTION

These four custom gauntlets were commissioned by Novac and constructed by an unnamed friend specifically around his unusual physiology. Each gauntlet completely covers one of his hands, including the fingers, palms, and natural claws, with the claw portions forming fitted songsteel sheaths around his existing claws. The sheaths do not extend the length of his natural claws; instead, they provide a protective outer layer while retaining their original dimensions and appearance. The remainder of each gauntlet uses articulated songsteel plating over a leather interior, allowing Novac to retain the dexterity necessary to use all four hands normally.

The gauntlets were designed primarily as protective combat equipment rather than something Novac wears constantly. Their songsteel construction gives his hands significant protection against lightsaber contact, while the reinforced palms and inner fingers provide additional protection across areas that would otherwise remain vulnerable. The articulated construction was also deliberately designed to minimize noise, preventing the plates from producing the usual clanking or scraping sounds associated with metal gauntlets. Despite their durability, the gauntlets do not protect Novac's arms beyond the hands themselves, and the songsteel does not make them indestructible. Their highly specialized construction also means they are intended almost exclusively for Novac, with another individual potentially being able to wear them only with considerable difficulty.

Primary Source: N/A


PRODUCTION INFORMATION

Manufacturer: Zavik Maltheris

Affiliation: Zavik Maltheris

Market Status: Closed Market

Model: N/A

Modularity: No

Production: Unique

Material: Durasteel, copper detailing, Qixoni crystal, Blackwing crystal, fencing emitter, Ossus dueling lens, trapped grip, fusion shunt, non dimetris circuits, and other standard lightsaber components.


TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Classification: Lightsaber

Size: Small

Weight: Light


SPECIAL FEATURES
Qixoni Crystal: An exceedingly rare dark red crystal that enhances the saber's blade power and Zavik's Force abilities.

Blackwing Crystal: Gives the blade an ashy gray coloration that mixes with the Qixoni crystal's dark red to create its distinctive color, while also producing the subtle smoke that constantly trails from the blade

Fencing Emitter: A specialized emitter designed to improve the saber's effectiveness in lightsaber-to-lightsaber parrying.

Ossus Dueling Lens: A focusing lens designed to produce a highly controlled and finely focused blade.

Trapped Grip: A concealed security mechanism designed to prevent unauthorized individuals from safely using the saber.

Fusion Shunt: Allows Zavik to temporarily amplify the saber's blade power and profile.

Non-Dimetris Circuits: Prevent the saber's activation loop from being disrupted by contact with cortosis.

Curved Hilt: A refined curved design intended for fencing-oriented combat.


STRENGTHS
Highly precise: The curved hilt and Ossus dueling lens allow exceptionally controlled lightsaber combat.

Powerful blade: The Qixoni crystal significantly enhances the blade’s power.

Force enhancement: The Qixoni crystal enhances Zavik’s Force abilities while using the saber.

Cortosis resistance: The non dimetris circuits prevent the blade from shorting out when contacting cortosis.

Security: The trapped grip prevents unauthorized users from safely activating the saber.

Overdrive capability: The fusion shunt provides a secondary mode that amplifies the blade’s power and profile.


WEAKNESSES
Reduced blaster deflection: The fencing emitter makes the blade less effective at deflecting blaster bolts.

High power demand: The fusion shunt’s amplified mode places greater demands on the saber’s power system, meaning it can only be used for a limited amount of time.

Specialized fighting style: The curved hilt and fencing-focused design are optimized for controlled dueling rather than every combat situation.

Complex maintenance: Its combination of specialized components requires more careful maintenance than a standard lightsaber.

Precision requirement: Its benefits are most noticeable when Zavik maintains careful, deliberate control of his movements.


DESCRIPTION
Smoke's Edge is the personal lightsaber of the Sith Apprentice and cybernetic biologist Zavik Maltheris, constructed entirely by Zavik himself. The weapon was designed around a refined, curved hilt and a fencing-oriented fighting style, prioritizing control, precision, and deliberate movements. Its black durasteel body is accented with copper mechanical detailing, with a smooth grip and a slightly ornate pommel giving the weapon a refined appearance without unnecessary decoration. The saber is meticulously maintained by Zavik and remains in pristine condition.

The weapon houses both a rare Qixoni crystal and a Blackwing crystal, producing its distinctive blade. The dark red of the Qixoni mixes with the ashy-gray coloration provided by the Blackwing crystal, creating a unique dark crimson and ashy-gray appearance. The Blackwing crystal also produces a small amount of smoke that constantly trails from the blade. When the weapon is first ignited, a larger burst of smoke briefly surrounds the blade before settling into its usual subtle effect. Aside from this unusual visual characteristic, the blackwing has no true effect unlike the qixoni crystal.

Smoke's Edge is built primarily for lightsaber dueling. Its fencing emitter and Ossus dueling lens allow Zavik to maintain precise control during combat, while the curved hilt complements his fencing-oriented technique. The saber's non dimetris circuits allow it to remain active when making contact with cortosis, preventing the activation loop from being disrupted, though this does not allow the blade to cut through cortosis. A fusion shunt gives Zavik an additional mode that increases the saber's power and blade profile, though this places greater demands on the weapon's power system and can cause additional strain with repeated use.
The saber also contains a concealed trapped-grip mechanism intended to prevent unauthorized use. Despite being a practical weapon, Smoke's Edge holds considerable personal importance to Zavik. It is one of the few creations he is genuinely proud of, though he rarely expresses that pride openly. Having designed and constructed the weapon himself, Zavik views it as something that deserves to be respected and properly maintained, rather than simply another tool to be discarded when damaged.

Specialized Weapon: Its design prioritizes powerful, deliberate long range shots rather than versatility or rapid engagements.

Dark Side Influence: The Lignan crystal's dark side nature can further draw its wielder toward the dark side, something Vorr willingly accepts. Its connection to the Force also means its influence can be affected by the light side.

Specialized Maintenance: The unusual focusing system requires careful maintenance and specialized knowledge to keep functioning properly.

DESCRIPTION

Breath of the Mire, formally designated BTM-01, is a one of a kind precision sniper rifle commissioned by Vorr’keth's Sith Master specifically for his use. The identity of the group responsible for its construction remains unknown. Built from dark wood, Neuranium, and restrained Bronzium detailing, the rifle combines an elegant, almost antique appearance with highly specialized internal technology. Its break action construction allows Vorr to replace its gas canister after its six available shots have been expended, while its long barrel, advanced targeting system, and carefully balanced construction are intended for deliberate long range fire rather than rapid engagements.

At the heart of Breath of the Mire lies a Lignan crystal, kept completely enclosed within the rifle's focusing system. Rather than serving as ammunition, the crystal is permanently incorporated into the weapon through lightsaber derived focusing technology. The system uses the crystal to concentrate and refine the rifle's energy, allowing it to produce an extraordinarily powerful long range discharge. This design bears similarities to the technology used in the Farkiller, which similarly incorporated lightsaber technology into a sniper rifle.

The Lignan crystal is exceptionally powerful and strongly connected to the dark side of the Force. The same dark side attunement that contributes to its potency can also subtly draw its wielder further toward the dark side. Vorr’keth is entirely accepting of this effect, viewing the crystal's influence as another means of drawing himself closer to what he calls the Great Swamp. The Great Swamp itself is not understood as a literal entity; it is Vorr's personal interpretation of the dark side of the Force. To Vorr, the power flowing through the Lignan crystal is therefore the Breath of the Mire itself, a manifestation of the dark side that he believes connects him more closely to the Great Swamp. He can faintly sense the crystal through the Force, reinforcing this personal interpretation.

Despite its tremendous output, the rifle is deliberately restrictive. Its gas canister holds only six shots, its firing rate is very low, and its powerful discharges produce substantial recoil. Rapid successive firing can overwhelm its heat management systems, further discouraging sustained fire. Its considerable weight and specialized construction also make it less versatile than a conventional blaster. These limitations are intentional. Breath of the Mire is not a general purpose weapon, but a highly specialized instrument designed around precision, patience, silence, and overwhelming individual shots, qualities that complement Vorr’keth's role as a Sith assassin.

 

[Vorr'keth]

OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION

Intent: to make custom light filtering goggles for Vorr'keth, designed to reduce the effects of his species' attraction to bright light while providing basic visual information through an integrated HUD.

Image Source: N/A

Canon Link: N/A

Permissions: N/A

Primary Source: N/A


PRODUCTION INFORMATION

Manufacturer: Vorr'keth

Affiliation: Vorr'keth

Market Status: Closed Market

Model: N/A

Modularity: No

Production: Unique

Material: Durasteel frame, transparisteel lenses, standard electronic components, miniature power cell, and light filtering technology.


SPECIAL FEATURES

Light Filtering: Strongly reduces the intensity of bright light entering the lenses, helping mitigate Vorr'keth's species specific attraction toward bright light.

Adaptive Filtering: The lenses can adjust their filtering to accommodate different lighting conditions.

Basic HUD: Provides simple information including time, direction/compass heading, basic environmental readings, and a basic targeting reticle.

Darkened Appearance: The goggles use a dark frame and dark yellow/amber lenses, helping them blend into Vorr'keth's appearance and making them less visually conspicuous in dark environments.


STRENGTHS
Light Protection: Significantly reduces the effects of bright lights, allowing Vorr'keth to operate more effectively in brightly illuminated environments.

Basic Information Display: The integrated HUD allows Vorr'keth to access useful information without requiring another device.

Low Profile: Their compact design doesn't significantly interfere with movement, combat, or other equipment.


WEAKNESSES
Extreme Brightness: Exceptionally intense sources of light can still overwhelm the filtering system and affect Vorr'keth.

Power Dependency: The active filtering and HUD require the goggles' internal power source. Once depleted, these functions become unavailable.

Physical Damage: Damage to the lenses or internal electronics can impair or disable their filtering and HUD functions.


DESCRIPTION

These custom goggles were designed and constructed by Vorr'keth to accommodate a biological issue common among his species: their natural attraction to bright sources of light. While this instinct can be manageable under normal circumstances, strong artificial lighting, flashes, and other intense sources can make it considerably more difficult for Vorr'keth to remain focused. The goggles therefore use heavily tinted dark yellow lenses combined with active light filtering technology to substantially reduce the intensity of incoming light without completely obstructing his vision. The filtering is deliberately strong, though it is not absolute, meaning sufficiently powerful light can still penetrate the system.

Beyond their primary purpose, Vorr'keth incorporated a simple HUD into the goggles. Rather than functioning as an advanced tactical computer, the system provides only practical information such as directional heading, time, basic environmental readings, and a simple targeting reticle. The goggles are entirely custom made and intended solely for Vorr'keth's personal use, with their compact construction allowing them to remain useful during both everyday activities and combat. Their main limitations are the power required for their electronic functions, the possibility of physical damage to the lenses or internal components, and the fact that extremely bright light can still overwhelm their filtering capabilities.

DESCRIPTION

The WTM 01: Whisper of the Mire was commissioned by Vorr’keth's Sith Master alongside his larger precision rifle, Breath of the Mire. Both weapons were produced by the same unknown group, resulting in a deliberate visual and stylistic connection between them. While Breath of the Mire was designed as a powerful long range weapon, Vorr recognized the need for a firearm better suited to closer engagements. The Whisper of the Mire was created to fill that role, giving him a more manageable sidearm without sacrificing the high damage and subdued aesthetic he had come to favor.

Despite sharing the Mire name, the pistol has no actual connection to the Force or a Lignan crystal. The name is entirely symbolic, reflecting Vorr's personal belief in the Great Swamp and his interpretation of the dark side through that belief. Where Breath of the Mire represents the Voice of the Mire, the larger weapon speaking with overwhelming force, Whisper of the Mire represents something quieter and more subtle. It is the weapon Vorr carries when the voice is unnecessary.

The pistol's reinforced frame, integrated sound dampening, heat management system, and custom grip make it a specialized and dependable personal weapon. Its relatively heavy construction and slower reload and cooldown prevent it from being an effortless sidearm, while its twelve shot capacity means Vorr must still be deliberate with his ammunition. It excels in the closer engagements where his large precision rifle would be cumbersome, while retaining enough range and stopping power to remain useful across ordinary combat situations.

Long Reload: Due to the two barrels and 12 individual slugs reload time is longer then most.

DESCRIPTION

Ironbite is a custom slugthrower pistol commissioned specifically for Cevrik Sathari. Unlike much of Cevrik's equipment, Ironbite was never designed around remaining unnoticed. It exists for the moments when an operation has already gone loud and Cevrik needs something capable of delivering considerably more physical force than his usual equipment.

The weapon's most distinctive feature is its unusual dual cylinder configuration, with six rounds held in each cylinder for a total capacity of twelve slugs. Despite its imposing appearance, Ironbite is intentionally fairly straightforward, relying on reinforced construction and powerful ammunition rather than elaborate technology. Its large frame and heavy weight are the tradeoffs for that durability and power.

Ironbite is therefore less of a primary weapon and more of a "things have gone wrong" weapon. Cevrik generally has little reason to bring it out when he can accomplish his objective without being detected. Once stealth is no longer an option, however, Ironbite gives him a dependable and hard hitting alternative to his more specialized Jedi equipment.
