It can deflect blaster bolts, particle beams, and lasers, is unnaturally sharp, and is effective against lightsabers. With increasing Dark Side knowledge by the wielder, the sword could manifest some minor dark side power enhancing abilities. This weapon serves as a focus for the dark energies of its wielder, amplifying their power and refining their control of Dark Side abilities and skills. It can also absorb Force Lightning attacks, allowing the energy to be used by the wielder for other Dark Side powers. The weapon has a strong presence in the Dark Side, and has killed lesser Journeymen wielders that could not control it. It drank their energy and left them dried out husks.
