Alter Difficulty: Difficult

Required Powers: Absorb-Dissipate Energy

This power may be kept "up."

Effect: This power is used to extend a field of energy around a melee weapon to create the effects of a "light" weapon. When used on a sword, the blade becomes infused with energy and has most of the properties of a lightsaber (able to parry lightsabers, can be used with Lightsaber Combat, able to parry blaster bolts, etc.), except damage is reduced to 4D (and like a true lightsaber, the strength of the user makes no difference to the damage). The power has similar effects on daggers, staffs, axes, etc. The weapon does not glow and cannot cut through materials with impunity, but can otherwise go up against a saber.
