Sixth Brother's lightsaber

"Was he talented? Or does he just carry the lightsaber for show?"

The Sixth Brother's lightsaber was used during his time as an Inquisitor serving the Galactic Empire. Slightly over a year after the Empire's formation, the weapon was destroyed on the Outer Rim moon Raada, resulting in the Sixth Brother's death when the Inquisitor battled the former Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano. Tano took the kyber crystals from the Sixth Brother's lightsaber for her own newly-constructed pair of lightsabers, after purifying them of the taint of the dark side.

History

The Sixth Brother learned to wield this lightsaber alongside his fellow Inquisitors in The Works on Coruscant, where the Grand Inquisitor instructed them,^[6]and subsequently Darth Vader.^[8]In 18 BBY,^[3]the Sixth Brother journeyed to the remote moon Raada after receiving a report of Jedi activity there. While investigating, the Inquisitor located a group of rebels concealed in caves near the moon's sole settlement and used his lightsaber to kill most of them, sparing only sisters Kaeden and Miara Larte; the former was taken hostage to lure the mysterious Force-user back to Raada, while the latter had been rendered unconscious before the fight so she would remain safe.^[1]Taking Kaeden hostage did draw her Force-using friend, former Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano, back to Raada. However, Tano had gained allies in Senator Bail Organa and his rebel group, enabling her to arrange the evacuation of the moon's population. As the evacuation began, Tano confronted the unarmed Inquisitor, who was unprepared and underestimated her. Having sensed the kyber crystals in the Inquisitor's lightsaber calling to her, Tano used the Force to pull on them, causing the weapon to explode and killing the Sixth Brother. After claiming the crystals and their specialized mountings from the wreckage, Tano took the time to close the Sixth Brother's helmet visor over his face. She then purified the crystals of the dark side's taint before completing a pair of white-bladed lightsabers, using some parts from the Sixth Brother's lightsaber, which she immediately wielded against the Imperial forces on Raada.^[1]
