Darksaber

300 OM - Requires: Physical Strength

An ancient incarnation of the lightsaber, the Darksaber is a unique weapon that produces a flat, black-colored blade of plasma. Thin and curved to a point, a shape with more similarities to a metal sword than contemporary lightsabers, the Darksaber's black blade is a meter in length and appears to draw in the very light and color around it like a black hole. This effect left the Darksaber with a faint aura of white light around the edges of its blade and makes looking at it for an extended period uncomfortable. The hilt of the Darksaber is thin and rectangular, and long enough to be grasped with two hands. It features an angled cross-guard as well as a serrated blade emitter. When the Darksaber's blade is activated by pressing its activation stud, the hum and pitch of the blade are notably higher than contemporary lightsabers, and the blade gives off a sound like a whistle when it was swung through the air. When the Darksaber comes into contact with another object or an opposing lightsaber, the blade screeches, and the white outer aura that surrounds the black core of the blade crackles.
