Chirrut Îmwe's lightbow

Canon Linked from 22 articles

Chirrut Îmwe's lightbow was a lightbow handmade and used by Chirrut Îmwe. The lightbow was made out of an E-11 medium blaster rifle. It had enough firepower to take down a TIE fighter. It was powered by a diatium power cell, and with a standard blaster power cell, could fire up to 50 rounds. It was air cooled. Îmwe showcased his continuing faith in the Guardians of the Whills by continuing to use this traditional weapon, while his colleague Baze Malbus used a less-traditional firearm. Îmwe used this weapon during the Mission to Eadu and later used the weapon during the Battle of Scarif.
