Redirection crystal

Canon Legends version → Linked from 2 articles

Redirection crystals were small containers of pressurized Tibanna gas equipped with focusing crystals and blaster barrels. They could produce blaster bolts when struck, which had an equal power output to standard bolts, but their range was significantly reduced. Once struck, redirection crystals left very little behind. They were invented by the Galactic Empire's Imperial Security Bureau and manufactured in small numbers by the Imperial Department of Military Research. They cost 500 credits on the market and were favored by Imperial Intelligence agents who used them to obfuscate assassination scenes or frame oth­ers for crimes.
