[Jazen]

Official Weapon Name: Prudii(shadow) Whip
Faction/Affiliation: Jedi/Padawan Jazen Solari

Classification: Melee
Manufacturer: Sark Industries

Dimensions
Full Length: 2 Meters
Coiled Length: 4/5 meter
Diameter: 5/16”diameter
Weapon weight: 4.5 pounds

Composition: Flexisteel

Other: Retractable claws, located on the whip tips.

Description: 2 meter long whips made of flexisteel. Segmented along into equal sized pieces along its length, the whips are meant for the quick disarming of an enemy or to act as a rope in case of emergencies. Because of the claw attachments in the tip, the whips can also be used to grip things from afar if need be. The claw snaps open from the tip, extending four clawed hooks when the claw is active.

Although they aren't intended for combat use, they have been designed to perfom as such if the need arises. However, the ends are slightly blunted due to the claw attachment, so instead of sharp cuts, the whips act more like a lightning fast smack. Despite being blunted, the ends are still pointed. Jazen named them Prudii whips, although he is unsure what that word means or where it came from; it just feels right.

Its not meant for fighting, yet it's made out of a material that's lightsaber resistant? And if the ends were just blunted, and not weighted, I don't think it would do all that much damage. It'd hurt for sure, but it wouldn't hurt nearly as much as I think you think it will.

Cool. Seems too light though.

[Jazen]

Made the damage they can do less and increased the weight.

Also, it was Arh who suggested to use the DWF.

Well, lightsaber resistant materials are as a rule expensive. Wookieepedia notes that Duranium is notoriously difficult to shape, which, along with its lightsaber resistance, probably a reason why they mostly make cages out of them, which don't require the same amount of precision forging that metal whips do.

Anyways, point is that the only things that are lightsaber resistant are going to be things that were specifically designed with use against lightsabers in mind. And whichever character owns them is probably going to have to pay a pretty penny to get them.

Like said, it was the Owl's suggestion.

As for how he got them then....I'm not sure how to answer that, at least with anything I've done IC yet.

It's actually a material? I just made up something that sounded strong. My mistake. I would change it to something less rare and superfluous.

Also, in case you weren't sure what I meant, these are the kinds of claws I was referring to: www.toolsource.com/prod_medium/103955.jpg

Modified.

[A®heim]

The description still says they're made from duranium weave.

[Jazen]

Whoops, fixed that.
