Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi (OOC Thread)

[Voda Vosa]

I was wonderin if we are going to take more time to reach the planet. I think we all have had enoght preliminary conversations. Its an opinion though

 

[Dire Lemming]

I certainly wouldn't mind if our ship took off soon.

Hey look, Tetsubo designed a lightsaber for Yeshua!

Hey I was thinking, if lightsabers have power adjust knobs I assume they are usually running at full power, but then could you turn down the power and get something akin to a stun baton?

 

[possum]

I have to disallow that. In my vast experience with the EU, I've never seen anything close to that ability. Sorry.

 

[Dire Lemming]

So then, what does it do?

I don't know if it counts but in Mysteries of the Sith Mara Jade and Kyle Katarn spar with each other using thier lightsabers, I always assumed the turned down the power setting so they didn't dismember each other accedentally.

 

[possum]

I honestly don't know. I only have the New Essential Chronology and Wookieepedia isn't telling me anything about what your talking about. Add to that, the fact that I've never seen it happen before, and that's why I have to disallow it.

EDIT: That could be the way. Either way, that's still not a stun baton.

 

[Dire Lemming]

Also, there're the training lightsabers from Attack of the Clones that the kiddies were using, those weren't powerful enough to cut things either.

So what is it?

It's specially made. And I will allow you to use a lightsaber set to low power to prevent horrible dismemberments on the people you're fighting, but not as a stun baton. I may give you a penalty to deflecting blaster shots, as well.

Oh, ok. What kind of action is adjusting the powerlevel anyway?
