Intent: To create a weapon for Lord Sebastian that is both classy and fits his personality.
Development Thread:
The Orb of Hrafnar
Pleasure and Pain
Manufacturer: Lord Sebastian
Model: Snake Cane
Affiliation: Lord Sebastian
Modularity: Yes
Production: Unique
Material: Alcamized wood, Devaronian blood-poison, Silver, Offering Crystals and Lignan Crystal
Classification: Lightsaber cane
Size: One-handed
Length: 1.2 M
Weight: 2kg
Special Features:
-The wood has been specially alchemized to make it resistant to lightsabers. The Crystals give it a stronger resistance and can now deflect blaster shots.
- Increases the effect and control of illusions and shadow shaping (Lignan)
- The retractable tip is made of Devaronian Blood-Poison so it increases the pain someone feels.
- Staring into the eye gems may causes it's victims to hallucinate and be dominated by their greatest fear.
-Red lightsaber in the cane
- The offering crystals lining the cane wood passively enhance the quality of the Force for such defensive powers like a Force Barrier. This does not make the wielder capable of calling on more than they would be capable originally, but does somewhat amplify the output of power to a modest degree of a Force Barrier.
Description: The cane is made of alcamized wood to be able to withstand combat with a lightsaber and the Offering Crystals lining it increase this and make it able to block blaster shots. The tip is made of silver that houses a retractable Devaronian tip that is only movable with the use of the force that is only known to Sebastian, like a key if you will. The head is made of silver and shaped into a Snake with black jeweled eyes. 6 inches down from the head is also made of silver and if it is twisted just right it will separate from the wood revealing Sebastian's lightsaber with a Lignan core.
The beauty of this cane is in the eyes of the Snake which are Lignan gems that are infused with Devaronian Blood Poison. The process began with the Lignan Ores that he used a furnace to refine into a Crystal using Devaronian Blood Poison to fuel to fire and fuse with the crystal's insides. Upon using alchemy, he took a Sith woman that was in love with him and consumed her with Summon Fear and then destroyed her with Shadow Shaping. He then boiled the Orb made from the Crystal fusion in the blood of the woman using Sith Lightning to fuse it all and make the gem eyes. While a lignan is meant for all dark side powers, this one focuses on Summon Fear and Shadow shaping due to the blood that is was alchemized in.
If a person looks into the gem eyes when they are glowing they may be overtaken by Summon Fear which will cause them to experience their worst fears to the point of hysteria. The power of Summon Fear is powerful, but the duration is based on many variables like rank, NPC or PC, willpower, ability to resist mental attacks and so forth. Shadow Shaping is an ability Sebastian has developed himself from his knowledge of Shaping. He takes the shadows around him to create physical attacks and beasts. Unlike other shaping though, he cannot create it yet as he has not figured out how to create darkness where there are none. The gems only increase the control and effect of the abilities, but not the power ie it won't make knight level attacks master, but will make knight level abilities more likely to work and able to last longer.
While unlike a lightsaber it is not as light, but as light as a light sword. The gems do not enhance the power of illusions of shadow shaping, just the effectiveness and control over them. If the target has no fear it will merely make them feel a lot of pain, but the lightside stronger than Sebastian's ability or a will power stronger than the pain can overcome the hallucinations (in RP terms IF this ability gets used on a PC a PM will be shared with them where we will decide how it will be used and how long it will last that will be fair.) The hallucinations are more for NPCs controlled by the holder of the cane. The gems are not indestructible. While if Sebastian stays within his own ability they will continue to aid his ability, if he over exerts himself and draws too much on the gems they will crack and then shatter being of no more use until replaced.
The crystals found on the planet where Braith slept were added to the cane. Using a drill he put divots down the body of the cane. Using alchemy, he reshaped them making them line the cane's wood and sealing to it so they become like one. They still have the ability of the Offering Crystals and their drawbacks, but he refined them to his needs. Now his cane acts like a lightning rod for the Force in a way. He can use it to almost like a Magic Wand where it can use the force like a hand can (not independently) For example, the cane's tip or Snake's mouth can use Force Lightning or Fire Shaping. The crystals passively enhance the quality of the Force for such defensive powers like a Force Barrier. This does not make the wielder capable of calling on more than they would be capable originally, but does somewhat amplify the output of power to a modest degree of a Force Barrier.
