Adegan crystal (Divergent Universe)

Adegan crystals were rare, Force-attuned crystals that grew in nature and were found on scattered planets across the galaxy. They were used by Force-adepts such as the Jedi, fallen Jedi, and Sith in the construction of their lightsabers. As part of Jedi training, apprentices were sent to collect the crystals in order to construct their own lightsabers. There were also larger, rarer crystals of great power that were used at the heart of ancient superweapons.

Description
Adegan crystals were Force-attuned crystals that grew rarely but throughout the Galaxy, with some areas having a greater abundance than others. The crystals concentrated energy in a unique manner through the Force, resonating with it.

Internally, Adegan crystals were composed of both organic and inorganic matter. They were stable at temperatures and pressures found in the cores of stars and gas giants, and were thus resistant to heat and physical stresses. The crystals grew in an organized way, adding to their prismatic structure one piece at a time, and thus could be found from sizes as small as a fingernail to gigantic proportions. All Adegan crystals were attuned to the Force regardless of their size.

Adegan crystals were most notably found in the Adega system, though a fair amount of these crystals could also be found on the planets Ilum, Dantooine, Halm, and Mygeeto. They were a critical component in the construction of most lightsabers, generating the energy which formed the weapon's distinct plasma blade. Force-adepts traveled to crystal deposits to harvest their own crystals, which they then used to build their lightsabers. Crystals lacked colour before they were chosen by a Force-adept. Once chosen, the crystals were shaped and imbued with the Force, upon which they attained hues influenced by the shapers' psyches or preferences.

History
The ancient Sith utilized Adegan crystals. Sith amulets utilized Adegan crystals, as did some warblades and most Sith technology. During the Sith Civil War, in which the Old Kissai and the Dissidents fought for control over the Sith Empire, superweapons were created by both sides that were powered by giant Adegan crystals. These superweapons were capable of destroying stars themselves by reaching into their depths and wrenching out their cores, destabilizing them, causing them to go supernova.

After the Proclamation of the New Order and the Great Jedi Purge, Emperor Dantius Palpatine and his Empire began construction of the Death Star, a battle station capable of destroying entire planets. Adegan crystals were used as part of the Death Star 's superlaser and Galen Erso was brought on as the main researcher under Project Celestial Power. Adegan crystals were looted from Jedi lightsabers, holy sites, and worlds where they could be found.
