The Lightsaber Prototype is the Jedi quest artifact in the Jedi patch for SLASH'EM, the prize for defeating Lord Sidious and his army of storm troopers.
Like any regular lightsaber, it provides excellent base melee damage and it has a +10 damage bonus and a +5 to hit bonus. Additionally, it provides reflection when wielded, and an energy boost when #invoked. Unlike a regular lightsaber, it never runs out of power or needs charging, so it can be wielded indefinitely.
Jedis
If a Jedi, the player has the ability to throw and catch it back like with any lightsaber, similarly to the Valkyrie's ability to throw and catch Mjollnir.
None Jedis
If you wish for this artifact, make sure you are at least lawfull and able to withstand its artifact blast. It's an intelligent artifact, so it will blast you for quite a lot even if you are lawfull because you aren't a Jedi, and you will be unable to even pick it up if you are not at least lawfull.
You can unrestrict lightsabers by wielding one when you get crowned. The additional +5 to hit bonus will also help a lot.
Average damage
With average damage of 26 vs. large (but only 21 vs. small), plus reflection and the Jedi only ability to attack from range, this weapon even outclasses the infamous Bat from Hell.
A Jedi two-weaponing this with Grayswandir in Gehennom is indeed fearsome to behold.
