Shik'oh lightstaff
23 February 2003
Author: Jim Williams
Source: Original
The Shik'oh was developed by a Human Jedi Weapon Master, Azung Foree, who felt that it would be wise to adapt the training he received as young boy in the way of the staff. Called Kubodan, this fighting style was necessary for young men and boys who commenced their Journey of Wisdom and wandered their homeworld as a rite of passage. The only weapon they were allowed was the Kubo, or staff, and no law applied to them. The planet and its culture are now lost to galactic history, but Azung Foree's detailed explanations of how to build and use a Shik'oh have been preserved on a holocron. the weapon is particularly appealing to some Jedi who interpret the Code to allow for less lethal weapons than the lightsaber to be used to avoid unnecessary loss of life. In addition, the weapon appears to be a simple staff until scrutinized closely.

The Shik'oh functions as a quarterstaff when deactivated and as a special double weapon when the lightsaber is activated. A Shik'oh user may choose to fight with only the lightsaber portion, or may fight with the quarterstaff portion also as a light weapon for Two-Weapon fighting. Due to the imbuing process when the lightstaff is created, the staff portion of the weapon has a DR of 20 that resists lightsaber damage, 10 Wound Points and a Break DC of 20. Last, a Shik'oh functions as a lightsaber for all functions and feats that are applicable to lightsabers when the blade is activated.
