Soulblade

Soulblade is an ancient Sith Sword that the Nomad Soul created during his time in the mortal realm. The exact nature of Soulblade is uncertain, but it was discovered that the Nomad Soul intended that Cadden Blackthorne – his unwitting potential host – would discover it.

History
During the climactic finale of the Battle of Onderon, the Nomad Soul once again spoke to Cadden in his mind. He told him that, alone, he could not hope to counter the great power of the one who killed Faarel Blackthorne. He instructed Blackthorne to set out and find Soulblade, and claim it. Doing so would grant him a great deal of power.

The Nomad Soul was counting on Cadden's state of anger and hatred toward the Cult of Shadow, particularly to Faarel's killer, to fuel his desire to search for the blade. The plan worked, and Cadden blindly followed the command set forth by the Nomad Soul. Zan Fyar, Cadden's former apprentice and now Jedi Knight, aided Blackthorne in his quest, in an attempt to sway him from the Dark Side.

The two individuals traveled to the Unknown Regions, Blackthorne blindly following the blade's call, until he reached a desolate world. There, he sought out and discovered the blade, buried in a sealed box. Before he could access the blade, however, several spirits appeared before the two Jedi, whom tried to warn Cadden of the danger. Cadden dismissed their warnings, and used the Force to break the box and, claiming Soulblade, he cast aside his own two lightsabers.

With the sword in hand, Cadden set out, with Zan at his side, to hunt down the culprits of his father's death. Fyar could feel the Dark Side energies teeming from the blade, and the more he sensed them, the more corrupted he, too, became.

However, Soulblade had other plans. The more Cadden possessed the blade, the more he submitted to its will. The voice of the blade promised him great power, and through that power, Cadden's revenge. However, Blackthorne had to make his own sacrifice, for his vengeance.

Cadden followed the blade's calling through the Unknown Regions, to a barren, rock and sand world. There, he sought an ancient tomb. Zan, feeling the Dark Side energies within, warned Cadden of the dangers.

"If we pass beyond these doors, we can never go back. The Order will surely banish us."

- Zan Fyar

Such words did not dissuade Blackthorne from continuing through the door to the tomb within. Though a part of Fyar yearned to return to the Jedi Order, he remained at his friend's side, knowing that once he crossed the threshold, there would be no chance of ever going back to the life he once had.

The two entered a burial chamber, deep within the tomb, whereupon a voice whispered into Cadden's ear, telling him to destroy the ancient stone sarcophagus. Blackthorne, now corrupted by the blade's power, obediently followed, thus released the spirit of the Nomad Soul from its prison. The spirit entered Cadden's body, and the two souls formed into one being.

"Now, I am complete."
