DESCRIPTION
Alana Calloway's lightsaber is an item she had resisted making for some time. However, after much consideration, she finally decided enough was enough.Taking inspiration from the swords she is so fond of, the hilt uses a triple emitter array gives her unique versatility in battle.
At its core lies a Dantari crystal, for the primary blade, assisting her with remaining grounded within the Force. However, the true innovation of the design is her dual auxiliary emitters. While this adds weight to the blade, it also provides her additional blades of which she can use to switch up her combat style to whatever she feels is appropriate.
While powerful, the saber's complexity makes it demanding to wield. Switching crystal functions mid-combat requires focus, and the auxiliary emitters drain energy at a higher rate than most lightsabers. Though this means that the power cell needs to be replaced more often than a normal lightsaber.
