Legend

this ancient artifact was uncovered in the shop of Suvam Tan, on Yavin Station, more than 4,000 years before the Galactic Civil War. The Mantle itself was simply a crystal, although it was imbued with the power of the Force. When used in conjunction with other crystals in the construction of a lightsaber, the Mantle of the Force was believed to have the ability to alter the abilities of the blade, giving the wielder unusual powers. When used in a lightsaber, the Mantle of the Force produced a blade which had an azure color. The Mantle of the Force was believed to have been even older that another such artifact, the Heart of the Guardian. It was pieced together from shards found by Suvam Tan in the temples of Exar Kun on Yavin 4, and many historians believed that it was much more powerful in its original, complete form.
