The lightsaber has had many names over the years, most recently the UM'Gada, but is renamed and remade every time a new clan takes over the Dandu tribe. It's a tradition that ties back into ancient Zanji beliefs, getting rid of the weak and making new for the strong. Each time the lightsaber is disassembled the new owner must add something of value to it. Usually this takes form in carvings on the hilt but over time many useful things were added on.
Not much is known about the true origins of the lightsaber, only that it was a gift from the Pale Witches for a successful hunt. This was a time before Dandu recorded their history but with this blade they carved their futures. It was the centerpiece to many different battlefields across the Zanji savanna as Ka'el Dandu, leader of his clan, led a crusade across the lands to unite the tribes. As any will tell you, he was successful and he attributed most of his wins to the great weapon. From there it was launched into the realm of myth, many believing it to be a gift from the gods of the hunt or death. Either way, it was immortalized as a sign of the true Dandu high-chieftains.
