My new piece, a lightsaber variant that I'm not exactly sure you had heard of before, If you have good for yah then, and one of my personal favorite's next to the crossgaurd lightsaber, a vary old variant in the Star wars lore for a while, introducing, of perhaps reintroducing the lightfoil! :D More specifically a magenta one! I think I could have tried to make the hilt look a bit more elegant, but maybe next time. :P Anywho! Since I'm to lazy too write a full description of it in my own words, I'll just instead do the old copy, paste trick from the wiki article about, and even link the source so that you can check it out for your self, and maybe find about more Star wars related stuff, and lore, and what not!
Here's as follows!
Lightfoils were small and elegant energy swords based upon lightsaber design.
Description
Originally designed in secret by the Sith of the Mecrosa Order, the quality of the lightfoil was on par with that of Jedi lightsabers. Each one was a work of art, lightweight and balanced. It was wielded with one hand as its petite and elegantly designed handles attested. They were best suited for use with one-hand in the graceful Form II: Makashi style.
After the Cleansing of the Nine Houses, with the Sith gone, so-called "modern" lightfoils began to be made and used by non-Force-sensitives, becoming popular among certain nobles of the Tapani sector, especially those that called themselves "saber rakes". However, these post-Cleansing lightfoils were weaker than the authentic or "archaic" lightfoils due to the poor quality focusing crystals used in their manufacture and the relatively low level of craftsmanship compared to Jedi artisans. However, the knockoff lightfoils apparently did not require any connection to the Force to create, and were fully usable by non-Force sensitives.
History
The original or "archaic" lightfoils were popular in the years leading up to the Great Sith War. After the decline of the Sith in the Tapani Sector, the less potent "modern" lightfoils that were constructed were popular among Tapani Sector nobles, who would pay large sums of money to obtain them.
