[Darth Grimm]

SPECIAL FEATURES

• This weapon is a lightsaber pike and can be used in combat. It has a single short blade and a haft that is built to withstand lightsabers. It does not contain a second blade, but can be compacted to be used as a standard lightsaber. The crystal is a Sith-Bled Christophsis Khyber Crystal which increases the impact of strikes with the blade.

STRENGTHS

• Force Medium: This item can be used to direct Force Powers
• Rune Carved: This weapon has ancient Sith Runes which direct and enhance Sith Sorcery
• Medium Weight: This weapon is made to be able to deflect heavier weapons

WEAKNESSES

• Dark Side Alignment: This weapon has the potential to turn it's user to the Dark Side by tempting it into the use of Sith Sorcery
• Accelerated Corruption: The user may find themselves subject to a faster rate of energy drain than by the use of Sith Sorcery alone due to the Runes

DESCRIPTION
The Dark Lord who fashioned this weapon did so to gain advantage over the other twelve original Dark Jedi who joined the Sith Empire. It was made to strike at a distance by a weaponmaster who knew the advantages of using spears over swords. The additional Sith Runes seem to be an afterthought, carved later to enhance the versatility of the tool, and to be used in conjunction with other Sith Artifacts, such as the Sith Soul Gem and Sith Amulets. Made from Songsteel treated with Sith Alchemy, and made even more durable in conjunction with Sith Sorcery, this weapon does not contain any Dark Side energy or power innately, but rather has been enhanced to act as a weapon for use against Force Adepts. A user with no knowledge of Sorcery or Runes may use it without ill effects, but a Jedi or Sith that understands the language of the Sith may find themselves corrupted by the utilization of the Runes.
