'''Lightsabers'''[[File:Lightsaber-cutaway.jpg|thumb]]


Lightsabers — the rare and highly-prized weapons of the Jedi Knights — are small, hand-held weapons that project an energy blade capable of cutting through the densest of materials. Each weapon was custom-made by a Jedi and no two are alike. Because the energy blade produces no resistance and has virtually no weight, it is very dangerous for beginners to use, and those without any formal training are as dangerous to themselves as to their opponents. In the hands of a Jedi Knight, these weapons are truly formidable, capable of deflecting blaster bolts in addition to their formidable melee combat capabilities. The weapons are extremelyrare artifacts — they are very rarely found for sale and possession of a lightsaber was highly illegal in the Empire.

'''Game Notes''': in an attacking character misses the difficulty number by more than 10 points (the base difficulty; not their opponent's parry total), the character has injured himself with the lightsaber blade. Apply normal damage to the character wielding the lightsaber.
