The Handmaiden's staff was a close range melee weapon that was used by the Echani Handmaiden Sisters when in combat. The weapon was a double-sided staff that could collapse into its central handgrip for ease of carriage and concealment. In this respect, it resembled the double-bladed variant of the lightsaber.
The handmaiden Brianna owned one of these staffs; in her case it had been passed down from her father, Yusanis, who was a powerful General and later Senator who was personally assassinated by Darth Revan during the Jedi Civil War.
In the game, Brianna is the only one who can use it.
