Star Wars C1571 Sw E4 Rp Darth Vader Red Lightsaber

Product Information

Anakin Skywalker's lightsaber did not turn red when he turned to the dark side in the "Star Wars" universe because he did not construct a new lightsaber after his fall. Compressed – This variant was a result of the failure to accurately replicate the typical geologic process that formed crystals. Unlike the natural kyber crystals used by Jedi, synthetic crystals are artificially created and are infused with the user's own negative emotions, such as fear, anger, and hatred.

This thematic choice was all about the associations of red with anger, rage, aggression etc -- all key to the Sith and Dark Side. However, synth-crystals could be made in any color, requiring only slight adjustments of the creation process and special manipulations through the Force during the forging. Outside of these lightsaber colors, New Game Plus allows you to keep all your Skill Points (though you'll have to redistribute them) meaning you've got instant access to the best skills in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.However, Obi-Wan used a blue blade throughout his career (it'll appear in his Disney Plus show later this month) and Anakin Skywalker's lightsaber, which passed between the central characters of the saga (from Anakin to Luke to Rey, via Finn), was blue.

While the majority of synthetic crystals were indeed red, they were known to emit other colors depending on the previously mentioned characteristics. The first appearance of a red lightsaber was in “Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope” when Darth Vader used his weapon to battle Obi-Wan Kenobi. The process is referred to as bleeding, giving the image of causing the kyber harm, but the name is especially fitting because it turns kyber red. Due to the energy sparking from the blade, unstable synth-crystals caused more damage than normal when they hit enemies.Lightsaber color is a major distinction between Jedi and Sith, with Sith wielding red lightsabers exclusively. From toys and collectibles to costumes and props, the red lightsaber is a staple of Star Wars merchandise. The real reason for a red lightsaber being the 'evil' option is due to cinematic limitations and George Lucas' vision. It is unknown when the Sith and other Dark side groups began using synthetic crystals, though red crystals have been in use since the days of the Old Sith Empire, with notables such as Karness Muur and his followers wielding such weapons. Like Luke’s iconic green-bladed lightsaber, the shoto presumably used a synthesized lightsaber crystal, and while there is no in-universe explanation for its red blade, one can be extrapolated.
