Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Lightsabers


 * Lightsaber is required to use lightsabers, a feat which is only granted to classes.

A lightsaber is required to use (Blaster Bolt Deflection) and a 's.

Double-Bladed Lightsaber

 * : Energy, 2-20 (2d10)
 * : 20-20,x2

These exotic weapons are rare, and most often associated with Jedi attracted to the dark side of the Force, for whom reckless aggression is sometimes considered an asset. The double-bladed lightsaber is capable of inflicting more damage – but is also less precise – than the single-bladed variant.

Although not stated in the description, Double-Bladed Lightsabers are Special: Upgradeable, Lightsaber and, according to, Balanced: +2/+0 vs. two-weapon penalty.

Malak's Lightsaber

 * : Energy, 2-16 (2d8)
 * Damage Bonus: +5 Universal
 * : 17-20,x2
 * Modifier: +5

Traditionally associated with the Jedi, the lightsaber is a devastating weapon difficult to master. Properties can vary with the type of focusing crystal used in construction.

Malak's Lightsaber has a red blade which is the same length as one blade of a, making it longer than a standard one-handed weapon. It isn't available to player characters without cheating (and even then it only has its appearance, and none of its bonuses).

Sith Lightsaber

 * : Energy, 2-16 (2d8)
 * : 19-20,x2

This lightsaber is quite intricate in its design, the hilt covered in delicate runes and inlaid with black markings. No doubt the purpose of the weapon is primarily ceremonial, though it certainly seems to perform as a lightsaber should.

Although this lightsaber can be used as a weapon, it cannot be upgraded.

Short Lightsaber

 * : Energy, 2-12 (2d6)
 * : 19-20,x2
 * Balanced: +2/+0 vs. two-weapon penalty if used in the off hand

Lightsabers can come in shorter styles, often used in the off hand during two-weapon fighting. As in larger versions, different focusing crystals can produce additional effects.
