Imri's lightsaber

Canon Linked from 8 articles

Imri's lightsaber was the first lightsaber owned and built by Jedi Padawan Imri Cantaros. It had a pale blue blade, and was powered by a kyber crystal. During his time at Port Haileap with his Master, Douglas Sunvale, Cantaros disassembled the lightsaber, and had difficulty in resembling it exactly as it had previously been, resulting in a weaker blade. Cantaros had the lightsaber with him when he was stranded on the jungle moon Wevo alongside Jedi Knight Vernestra Rwoh, inventor Avon Starros, Dalnan Honesty Weft and Starros' droid J-6 after an attack on the starship Steady Wing that had resulted in the death of Master Sunvale.

While they were stranded on the moon, Starros, having developed a fascination with lightsabers and kyber crystals during her time at Port Haileap, watched Cantaros attempt to repair his weapon. Having a hard time processing his grief, Cantaros gave in to his anger after discovering that the Nihil pirates responsible for the attack were also on the moon, but he was captured along with Weft after the two attempted a sneak attack on the pirates. Rwoh and Starros rescued the boys, but Rwoh was forced to duel Cantaros after he attempted to Force choke the pirate Klinith Da to death instead of taking her prisoner. During the duel, Cantaros' lightsaber was destroyed by Rwoh's lightwhip. Several days later, when a Jedi rescue party arrived, Starros stole the broken pieces of Cantaros' lightsaber, intending to experiment with them.
