Tesla Saber
Swords made of plasma would melt you inside of half a second, and laser swords aren't possible, but we'll give you something similar – a sword made out of lightning. Basically a miniaturized Tesla arc, firing arcs a few thousand times a second, contained within a protective field. It doesn't so much cut as burn, electrocute, melt and generally vaporize the living shit out of anything it touches. As previous convicts have discovered, does not give good haircuts.
  • Creds: 4000
