Mantle of the Force

The Mantle of the Force was a powerful crystal artifact rediscovered by Suvam Tan and possibly used by Revan. It added a silver-cyan color to a lightsaber.

Revan purchased this crystal from Suvam Tan near the end of his search for the Star Forge, as well as another legendary crystal, the Heart of the Guardian. He discovered that when placed in a lightsaber, its properties altered depending on the other crystals the lightsaber carried; though it always enhanced force abilities.

Behind the scenes

 * This crystal can only be purchased at the Yavin Station in the PC version of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic; Yavin is also available as downloadable content in the Xbox version. The silver-cyan color of the blade is exclusive to this crystal in the game.


 * Duron Qel-Droma had a vision which seems to suggest that Revan used this crystal in his duel with Darth Malak. However this is a disputed topic, since the vision has a blue tint. Many fans believe Revan would have used the Heart of the Guardian, because of the Jedi legend that says it would "appear in a time of great turmoil". In the game it is possible to use both, when equipped with two single-bladed lightsabers.


 * There is fan speculation that this crystal was in fact an alchemic creation that can be traced to Exar Kun. However this is a disputed topic, since much of this speculation is based upon Exar Kun's use of a blue crystal in his saber, and his use of Sith Alchemy.
