Legend

this project was the brainchild of Imperial General Vit, who was based on the planet Dathomir some twelve years after the Battle of Yavin. Vit spent a great deal of credits on excavations of the Chu'unthor, hoping to obtain Jedi lightsabers and other artifacts. His plan called for luring a disgruntled Jedi Knight to Dathomir, and convincing them to join him in a crusade against the New Republic. This turncoat Jedi would then train legions of Force-sensitive Imperial agents, the culmination of the project. General Vit thought he had the perfect candidate whjen Dal Konur was stranded on Dathomir, but the Jedi team sent to apprehend Konur managed to capture the rogue Jedi and defeat Vit in combat. Thus, Project Nightsaber never came to fruition.
