Lorana Jinzler's lightsaber

Legends Linked from 4 articles

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

Lorana's lightsaber was the personal lightsaber of the Jedi Knight Lorana Jinzler. It was green-bladed, with a metal hilt and an amethyst attached to its activation switch. Lorana used the lightsaber during her time as the Padawan of Jedi Master Jorus C'baoth and later when she embarked for unknown galaxies in 27 BBY aboard Outbound Flight, a massive starship made up of several Dreadnaught-class heavy cruisers. She wielded it throughout the Outbound Flight Project up until she died saving the lives of the surviving passengers of Outbound Flight.

The weapon was re-discovered over fifty years later aboard Dreadnaught-One near her remains by the Jedi Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade Skywalker during an expedition with the Chiss to investigate the wreckage of Outbound Flight. Skywalker took the lightsaber and eventually showed it to Lorana's younger brother Dean Jinzler. Jinzler, who had joined the mission by posing as a diplomat for the New Republic, identified it as Lorana's and Skywalker offered the weapon to him. Though Jinzler accepted the offering, he postponed taking it, believing the Jedi might need it during their attempt to prevent the escape of a group of Vagaari warriors aboard Dreadnaught-Four who sought to steal droids to attack the Chiss Ascendancy. During the ensuing battle, Jade Skywalker used Lorana's lightsaber to defeat a droideka, and the weapon was destroyed in the resulting explosion. Although no part of Lorana's lightsaber survived to present to Jinzler, because his journey to the wreckage of Outbound Flight allowed him to come to terms with his difficult relationship with his sister, he was able to accept the loss and felt it was fitting that the weapon be sacrificed to protect the expedition's remaining survivors.
