- "This lightsaber--this was the weapon of a Jedi. Whoever its owner might have been, they died with it in their hand. It has seen many battles, taken many lives. Be worthy of it, sergeant."
- ―Darth Vader, to Sergeant Kreel on the lightsaber
The Imperial Sergeant Kreel wielded a lightsaber during the Galactic Civil War.
History[edit | edit source]
The Jedi who originally owned the lightsaber died with the saber in their hand.[7]
Kreel, when he posed as the gamemaster, took the lightsaber from Grakkus the Hutt's Jedi artifacts collection. He used the weapon when training the rebel Luke Skywalker for Grakkus' arena games.[1] After his assignment on Nar Shaddaa, Kreel chose to become sergeant of Task Force 99 and used his lightsaber during a skirmish against rebel forces on the Ghost Moon.[6] Kreel later used the lightsaber in combat against Skywalker again whilst aboard the Harbinger during the Siege on Tureen VII.[8][9] Later on Kreel led Scar Squadron to the planet Crait where the lightsaber was destroyed in a lightsaber duel with Skywalker.[2]
Despite that, Kreel was able to repair the lightsaber and used it during his duel with Skywalker on Hubin.[3]
