Lightsaber parasol

Canon Linked from 11 articles

The lightsaber parasol was a Sith lightsaber created by Kouru, a female Sith who led a bandit group. It functioned as a singled-bladed lightsaber when she used only the lightsaber hilt. With its attached parasol auxiliary, it produced multiple red plasma blades in a manner that resembled a parasol, particularly when she spun it to create a shield.

Kouru used the weapon when her bandits attacked a village on the planet Genbara. She removed the lightsaber auxiliary to engage in a lightsaber duel with the former Dark Lord of the Sith known as the Ronin. His droid, R5-D56, retrieved the auxiliary after the Ronin killed Kouru, and the Ronin gave the device to a shopkeep as extra payment. After shattering the hilt, the Ronin removed the kyber crystal inside. He initially intended to keep it, but instead gave it to the village chief to ward against evil.
