The Darksaber
The Darksaber is the great and ancient weapon that serves as a powerful symbol of leadership to the Mandalorian people. The Darksaber is a unique weapon resembling a Lightsaber in most aspects, but it's black plasma blade with an eerie white edge makes it a whole new styled weapon.
Created by Tarre Vizsla , the first ever Mandalorian inducted into the Jedi Order, the black-bladed weapon became a relic of his legacy. After his passing, it was kept away in a Jedi Temple until Clan Vizsla liberated it. Since then, it has been passed from leader to leader through a rite of passage where one child of Mandalore would challenge the current owner to a dual, the victor claiming the weapon as well as leadership of their people.
During the days of the Clone Wars, Darth Maul challenged Pre Vizsla for the status of Mand'Alor. After wining the battle and beheading Pre Vizsla, Maul continued to use the Darksaber for his own nefarious purposes as the leader of Mandalore and the Shadow Collective. During the civil war between those who were loyal to Maul and those who sided with Bo-Katan Kryze with the belief that Maul had no right to the claim of Mand'Alor, Maul hid the weapon on Dathomir among other trinkets and relics he collected to keep it safe. This made it so that the Mandalorians would never have a rightful ruler until the blade was found, giving Maul even more leverage over the Children of Kad.
The Darksaber remained hidden for several years until Maul met a young Force sensitive by the name of Ezra Bridger, who became linked by the secrets they both desired that the other had. Picking up the blade to defend himself and his allies from Nightsister spirits, the blade eventually found it's way to Kanan Jarrus who held on to it for safekeeping. Kanan then showed the blade to a Mandalorian by the name of Fenn Rau who explained that if Sabine Wren, the Wren Clan being a splinter from Clan Vizsla, used the weapon, she could reunite House Vizsla and take back Mandalore from the Empire.
Sabine left to Mandalore to unite her people but Gar Saxon, the current governor of Mandalore, took the Darksaber. It wasn't long before Sabine Wren bested Gar Saxon in battle, fully earning the right to claim ownership of the weapon as well as the respect of her family and Clan. After the end of the civil war on Mandalore, Sabine offered the weapon to Bo-Katan Kryze, who accepted the symbol to lead Mandalore.
Because Bo-Katan Kryze did not earn the blade through the rite of passage, the blade did not belong to her. Thus, some skeptics who blame her for losing the Darksaber to Moff Gideon believe that if the blade is wield by a worthy Mandalorian, it will bring the Children of Mandalore great prosperity and victory, but if the blade is to born by an unworthy soul, it will bring great ruin and destruction to the Mandalorian people.
It was until Din Djarin defeated Moff Gideon that he became the rightful ruler of Mandalore. Deciding that such a role was too much for him, he tried giving the weapon back to Bo-Katan Kryze who reluctantly refused, thinking that if she were to wield the Darksaber again another Battle of Tears would ravage her people.
Since Din Djarin, the location of the Darksaber has been either based off of rumors or mystery. However, the true location of it's presence is closely guarded by a group of four Neo-Crusaders known as the Cuir Harva'av. They are to await the coming of a true leader of Mandalore and guide them to the crypt on Mandalore where Din Djarin was laid to rest with the precious Darksaber. The journey through the crypt must be done by two or more Mandalorians who all must fight for the right of wielding the blade. The Mandalorian who comes out of the crypt with the blade in hand will be considered the victor and true owner of the Darksaber, a leader to once again guide their people to glory.
Intent
To bring a cool weapon from canon into the site for the Mand'Alor (and any others who wish to take claim over the blade) to gain a true symbol of leadership as well as a lethal weapon to wield in combat.
