Lightscimitars were developed around 1000 BBY and in terms of Energy weponsa re relatively new. The Lightscimitar was accidently born when the gravity field generator in a Jedi’s Lightsaber weakened. The generator weakened due to the age of the component, and this led to the blade becoming kinked. The Jedi disregarded it as a failure of an aged component, and took to ensuring the re-design of all gravity field generators. After the Jedi had faced some designs of the Lightscimitar, some of the more experienced masters came together and developed their own design on the blade.

| - Lightscimitars were developed around 1000 BBY and in terms of Energy weponsa re relatively new. The Lightscimitar was accidently born when the gravity field generator in a Jedi’s Lightsaber weakened. The generator weakened due to the age of the component, and this led to the blade becoming kinked. The Jedi disregarded it as a failure of an aged component, and took to ensuring the re-design of all gravity field generators. It was the Sith who actually heard of the failure of the gravity field generator, and it was the Sith Order that pioneered the Lightscimitar originally. They saw that the kink in the blade, gave the blade a larger surface area, and therefore increased the amount of damage dealt. The Sith experimented with the blade, and actually developed a safe means of constructing a gravity field generator that was deliberately weak. This led to the creation of the Lightscimitar. The weapon was soon put to test, and the Sith Order found the weapon very desirable, as it appealed to their emphasis on power and the blade dealing more damage, thus giving the user an advantage in combat. After the Jedi had faced some designs of the Lightscimitar, some of the more experienced masters came together and developed their own design on the blade. Sith and Jedi Lightscimitars were virtually identical, although fewer Jedi wielded the Lightscimitar as it was seen more as a weapon to deal damage, and therefore didn’t sit with the Jedi ideal or protecting, the Order deemed the weapon more likely to encourage the user to attack. 800 BBY would see the near total disappearance of the blade, accept in archives and schematics. Despite the slight advantage the blade posed it had a major fatal flaw. The weak gravitational field drew much more power from the sabers power source, and thus drained the weapons power far more quickly than a Lightsaber. The weapon was soon abandoned for it’s more reliable and energy efficient brethren the Lightsaber.
