A Luxum crystal was a type of crystal that could be used in lightsaber construction. These crystals were from the world of Ambria, a planet gripped by dark energies, where they were formed out of the minerals and Force energy contained in Lake Natth through long and deep meditation.[1] They were more effective against droids, imparting an ion effect to a lightsaber blade when used the construction of the weapon.[2] Luxum crystals were one type of mineral sought out by fugitive Jedi Jax Pavan in his search for a mineral with which to construct a new lightsaber after losing his in a fight with Darth Vader.[3]
