Yes, another star wars question.?!


Question: Who's Idea was it to invent the lightsaber?


Answers: Who's Idea was it to invent the lightsaber?

It was George Lucas' Idea. He had envisioned a sword of energy/light for the Jedi. And that it would be their proverbial companion. Much like a Samurai and his Swords.

This is actually answered in the Expanded universe books. Jedi of the Old Republic (before the formation of the council) were looking for a means to enforce Natural Law. Many of their ranks were sent outwards into the stars looking for a Force sensitive weapon. Eventually a small band of Jedi (2-3 if I remember correctly) crash landed on a Mining planet. They found a race of beings that were almost completely crystal. these beings began to fight the Jedi and when a Blaster shot hit one of the beings it was focused and amplified. The Jedi saw the potential of the crystals the beings were guarding and Harvested some before escaping. They worked tediously trying to recreated the beam effect until they finally came up with the light saber as it is today. Since then Creating their own light saber from the very crystals harvested so long ago was seen as a right of passage for Padawan learners.

Hope you like the Lore =)
