Obi-Wan: Christ...Jar Jar, turn around, would you?
Jar Jar: Yessa Obi!
Jar Jar turns around. Obi-Wan ignites his lightsaber. Blue flash, sizzles, Gungan screams.
Obi-Wan: This is for the Republic!

Weapon used by a civilization so advanced that it colonized space, but so primitive that it couldn't figure out that a small-calibre handgun works a million times better.

when a joint or blunt canoes so much without being stopped that it becomes one long orange line down one side, all the way to the roach. Thus garnering the appearance of the fabled Jedi weapon of choice.

A elegant weapon for a more civilized age. Wielded by powerful foes, lightsabers are very power, and skillful weapons. They are used mainly by Jedi knights and other force sensitive beings. Lights can cut through nearly anything. Lightsabers require a kyber crystal to activate, beings wishing to build a laser sword must sought out these crystals. There are many lightsaber types; single blade, double blade, crossguard, etc.

The lightsaber, also referred to as a laser sword by those who were unfamiliar with it, was a distinctive weapon, the very image of which was inextricably bound with the mythos of the Jedi Order and their polar opposites, the Sith. The lightsaber also became synonymous with the Jedi Order's values to uphold peace and justice throughout the galaxy. This perception endured, despite the many conflicts with lightsaber-wielding Sith and Dark Jedi.
The weapon consisted of a blade of pure plasma emitted from the hilt and suspended in a force containment field. The field contained the immense heat of the plasma, protecting the wielder, and allowed the blade to keep its shape. The hilt was almost always self-fabricated by the wielder to match his or her specific needs, preferences and style. The hilt was also built similarly to his or her master's lightsaber as a mark of respect. Due to the weightlessness of plasma and the strong gyroscopic effect generated by it, lightsabers required a great deal of strength and dexterity to wield, and it was extremely difficult—and dangerous—for the untrained to attempt using. However, in the hands of an expert of the Force, the lightsaber was a weapon to be greatly respected and feared. To wield a lightsaber was to demonstrate incredible skill and confidence, as well as masterful dexterity and attunement to the Force.
