DESCRIPTION
After using a 'hand-me-down' lightsaber since she began her training, Tigris sought to craft her first weapon as part of her progression to knighthood. She had finally embraced the union of the skills from her formal life as an assassin, and how she could best serve the galaxy as a jedi. Leaning towards the arts of the Jedi Shadow, Tigris sought to design a unique lightsaber suitable for stealthy operations. She sought out the Ghostfire crystals in a harrowing mission to harvest them atop a mountain. Other components were acquired from Atrsian companies, using her newly discovered Atrsian noble heritage to secure the parts. The weapon is hard to see, silent and able to pack an extra punch when needed.
