SPECIAL FEATURES
- VT-Disruptor Lense: An addition that has existed since his time in the One Sith Empire, Carnifex continues to use a VT-Disruptor Lense inside of his lightsaber. This allows his blade to cut through any organic matter with a power gland, which is an organ exclusively used by Yuuzhan Vong organics.
- Bifurcating Cyclical-ignition Pulse: The bifurcating cyclical-ignition pulse utilized a dual-crystal process within the hilt that allowed his blade to continuously work while submerged.
- Synthetic Lightsaber Crystal: The traditional crystal utilized by Sith (and other Dark Siders) everywhere, forged in a furnace of hate and embodied with the power of the Dark Side by Carnifex himself. The crystal generates a slightly stronger lightsaber blade than those who utilize naturally crystals (like those found in Jedi lightsabers), and it was even rumored that the crystal allowed a Sith's blade to break that of a Jedi's. However; such rumor is unfounded and has not yet been entirely proven, and is dismissed as ancient propaganda even by Carnifex.
- Reach: The Imperious Sword has a blade length of three meters even, which affords the gargantuan Sith Lord considerable reach against his opponents.
- Underwater Functionality: Prepared for any eventuality, the Dark Lord's lightsaber is designed to function even underwater in the case of submersion.
- Disruptor Lense: Acquired through third-party sources, the VT-Disruptor lense allows the Dark Lord to saw through Yuuzhan Vong bio-technology with ease.
- Lightsaber Resistant Metals: Cortosis, phrik, beskar, all are resistant to the blade of a lightsaber, with cortosis capable of shorting out the blade on contact.
- Larger Blade: Because of the larger blade, the weapon is more difficult to change direction when already in motion. The Dark Lord typically has to follow through with each of his swings before he can move the blade in a different direction. Simultaneously this makes it all the more difficult to deflect or reflect blaster fire, especially at multiple angles and from rapid-fire weapons.
- Stabby Quillons: The six inch quillons that jut out from the emitter requires practice to properly wield, lest they cause harm to the wielder inadvertently.
The Emperor of the Sith Empire has always been an imposing man. Standing just over eight feet tall, the Butcher King is a monolithic Sith Warrior that has sewn much chaos and destruction across the battlefields between the Light and the Dark.
Though he is a monstrous master of the Dark Side of the Force, his most capable weapon is the equally massive lightsaber he wields. Nicknamed the Butcher's Cleaver after its wielder's penchant for butchery, the Imperious Sword is a lightclub whose hilt is a whopping forty centimeters long, twice as long as the average lightsaber's. With a blade of three meters the Dark Lord can cleave opponents in twain with but a roll of his wrist, and can keep his enemies at bay with his insane reach.
Not many have come face-to-face with the Black Iron Tyrant and lived to tell the tale, but those that do speak of horrible atrocities committed by this vile and loathsome dictator. Where he treads doom follows close behind, with misery and desolation being the only things left in his terrible wake.
