Da'run's Lightsaber

"'...it was... it was my dad's.' - Gavin, looking over the ruins of his father's lightsaber."A lightsaber built by Da'run Desyk.

Construction
Built in 33BBY, Da'run's Lightsaber was machined from Durasteel, and polished to a shine. Inside, space was at a premium, which led to Da'run putting as many components as he could below the power switch, which was unique in that it was a round, speeder starter switch.

The singular Kyber crystal was left in the state it was found in, with the bottom edge being rough, while the top was smooth, with a sub-matrix jutting up slightly higher.

History
Da'run was an outlier in the Jedi Order due to his lightsaber being the same one he built following his time at The Gathering on Illum. By the time of being Knighted, most Jedi were on their second, or even third Lightsaber. The weapon was his constant companion, even after he left the order after a disagrement over Ki-Adi Mundi joining the Jedi High Council, with the former feeling the latter was too detached from the reality of the situation around them to make effective leadership decisions.

While instructed by other masters to apologize, Da'run refused, and left the temple on Coruscant, taking his remarkably long lived lightsaber with him.

The next time he would ignite the blade would be in defense of a young woman on Dantooine. After that, it was ignited to perform basic training drills with his son, Gavin.

The lightsaber was passed from father to son on Gavin's 16th birthday, and it would never be handled by its creator again.
