- Unstable Synth Crystals
- Hidden Activation Switch
- Bifurcating Cyclical-Ignition Pulse
- Unstable Synth Crystals - While giving this blade a good look, the synth crystals also help increase the damage output due to the sparking from them.
- Hidden Activation Switch - This switch means only Darth Novus can activate this blade and use it as a tool
- Bifurcating Cyclical-Ignition Pulse - Common place among lightsabers, these allow the weapons to work underwater which is useful.
Strengths:
- Damage Increase - The Unstable Synth Crystals spark and splutter, causing some slight extra damage to the opponent
- Shorting - The Unstable Synth Crystal isn't all fun and power. The lightsaber constantly shorts out which isn't fun
- Sparking - While the sparks do damage to the enemy, they also do damage to the wielder of the blade.
The lightsaber is quite simple in design, only designed to be temporary. It had a number of points it had to meet during the building, mostly being suitable for the new form of Darth Novus, the child. Because of this problem, the lightsaber had to be downgraded to a shoto. However, Novus didn't want to lose any power and so put three rushed crystals inside. If he had more time, the Synth Crystals would of been perfect, but due to time constraints they had to suffer, thus becoming unstable. Novus added the Bifurcating Cyclical-Ignition Pulse because of the common place of them. The Hidden Activator switch was something that happened accidently but something that he decided to run with and carry on with, using it to his advantage.
Other than that, this lightsaber is just simply run of the mill.
