It consisted of advanced nanotechnology housed within the shell of a basic dart and was designed to seize control of its victim's mind, causing them to behave in a crazy and unpredictable manner. JediPadawanNim Pianna was struck by a slicer dart while handling a mutiny aboard the freighterAdvent, prompting her master, Jedi KnightRael Averross, to decide to kill her.
