One such match lasted for hours, with Vader simply holding off Marek until the apprentice collapsed from exhaustion. While this early effort was a failure, Marek did eventually succeed in crafting a lightsaber, and it saw frequent use in training duels with his droid, PROXY, and even with Vader himself.
He did not succeed, and PROXY was forced to release him from his bonds. As a child, Marek once ordered PROXY to chain him up and not give him food or water until he could take apart and rebuild the lightsaber using only the Force. Like much of Galen Marek's training, the circumstances of the lightsabers creation were brutal.
Galen Marek using telekinesis to reassemble his lightsaber. The blade utilized a set of red crystals supplied by Vader. His weapon featured an exposed crystal chamber, and rather than include a handgrip, the whole of the weapon was sheathed in somewhat tarnished looking bare-metal. However, rather than follow the over-sized, bulky design of his master's weapon, Marek opted for a considerably more skeletal make. Galen Marek's first lightsaber appeared to be based on the design utilized by Darth Vader, featuring an emitter shroud and a mostly solid casing. Due to the loss of his apprentice's lightsaber, Darth Vader provided Marek with another lightsaber as a replacement. As a result, Marek's lightsaber was lost in the vacuum of space, though he was ultimately saved from death by his Sith Master in order to be redeployed on several new missions that would lead to the formation of the Rebel Alliance. Upon the completion of his final trials, Vader betrayed his apprentice on the orders of Emperor Palpatine, and cast him out into space. Intended for both training and combat purposes, it served multiple purposes such as the many sparring matches between the apprentice and his holodroid PROXY, as well as meditation sessions in which he concentrated on telekinetically reassembling his lightsaber.Īs his training neared completion by 3 BBY, the apprentice was dispatched on a series of tasks to assassinate three fugitive Jedi Masters- Rahm Kota, Kazdan Paratus and Shaak Ti. The apprentice's lightsaber was of a skeletal and utilitarian design. Galen Marek's lightsaber was the Sith weapon of the Dark Lord Darth Vader's secret apprentice, a Force-sensitive assassin codenamed Starkiller.
