Training Lightsaber

About the Training Lightsaber

Every younglings' first blade hums at a fraction of a war saber's intensity. The crystal is tuned to a low-power output that stings and singes rather than severs, letting Padawans learn Form basics, deflection drills, and the discipline of the ignition without the constant threat of losing a limb to a clumsy parry. Jedi archivists on Coruscant and instructors aboard training frigates kept racks of them for the Bear Clan and their like, and Ahsoka's earliest lessons in the Temple were fought with weapons much like these. The hilt is deliberately unremarkable, often heavier and cruder than a self-built saber, so that graduating to a personal blade feels like a rite. It cuts, but gently, and forgives the mistakes a real blade never would.
