Slicer dart

A slicer dart was a type of dart. They were comprised of advanced nanotechnology inside the shell of a basic dart, designed to take control of its victim's mind and make them act in a crazy and unpredictable way. Jedi Padawan Nim Pianna fell victim to a slicer dart while dealing with a mutiny aboard the freighter Advent, leading her master, Jedi Knight Rael Averross, to make the decision to kill her. Afterwards, Averross harbored a fear of the darts due to trauma over the fate of his apprentice. While Averross was serving as the Lord Regent of the planet Pijal, the Pijali Crown Princess Fanry, secretly plotting a revolution against the Czerka Corporation's influence, planted a slicer dart in a staged assassination attempt with the help of her attendant Cady to instill fear in the Jedi Knight.
