That all changed when a scavenger, Rey, discovered the Skywalker lightsaber and ultimately came to train with Luke Skywalker and his twin sister, Leia Organa to combat Kylo Ren and the First Order during a war against the Imperial Remains. These, however, were killed during the destruction of his Jedi, once again leading to a time where the only prominent lightsaber user was a darksider, Kylo Ren. Īfter the Empire was defeated, Luke began training a new generation of Jedi. įor the majority of the reign of the Empire, the only lightsaber that was prominently used was that of Darth Vader, and, in its waning years, that of the exiled Obi-Wan Kenobi and Luke Skywalker. Jedi, previously peacekeepers, became Jedi Generals of the Grand Army of the Republic, and thus began using their lightsabers more often than they had in their role of peacekeeping. Lightsabers took on a more prominent role in galactic affairs as the Clone Wars came to pass. They were also used in the Battles of Rashfond and the Peacekeeping of Parliock, The proto-saber was an ancient type of prototype lightsaber. Sounding like no other weapon in the galaxy, lightsabers were used thousands of years before the age of the Galactic Republic, seeing use in the Great Scourge of Malachor. People today prefer to fight with rifles and blasters, from long range." ― Harter Kalonia, to Rey Ī Twi'lek Jedi using the Force to assemble her lightsaber. " I don't get to treat many lightsaber wounds. Lightsaber combat was divided into seven Forms: Form I, Form II, Form III, Form IV, Form V, Form VI, and Form VII. Most practitioners used one single-bladed lightsaber, though some used double-bladed lightsabers or even multiple lightsabers at once. Experienced Jedi could even employ their lightsabers to absorb Force lightning. When used defensively, a Force-sensitive could deflect blaster bolts with a lightsaber, and with skill, could even reflect the shots back toward the shooter or some other target. The only ways to block the incoming attack of a lightsaber was with a weapon made with material that conducted energy, such as an electrostaff, a Z6 riot control baton, some rare metals like beskar, or another lightsaber. A lightsaber could cut through virtually anything, from flesh to blast doors. Lightsabers were generally used for both offense and defense.
Though also used by the Sith, the lightsaber was synonymous with the Jedi, with some in the galaxy believing only Jedi could use lightsabers. It was a weapon that required skill and training, and was greatly enhanced when used in conjunction with the Force. Lightsabers consisted of a plasma blade, powered by a kyber crystal, that was emitted from a usually metal hilt and could be shut off at will. The lightsaber, also referred to as a laser sword by those who were unfamiliar with it, was a weapon usually used by the Jedi, the Sith, and other Force-sensitives. " An elegant weapon for a more civilized age." ― Obi-Wan Kenobi giving Luke Skywalker his father's lightsaber
