Anyone need their Kohlen checked?
Sweet!!! There's another mention of Orange Saber'z in canon that tell us a lot more!!
In teh Canon book "Master & Apprentice"
(Quigon & Obi)
...they have orange "
Kohlen Crystals..." nicknamed: "Fool's Kyber" because although they appear to be Kybers... (& even weigh teh same) on a microscopic level, they're much different.
They can however, power a light saber... & Qui-Gon Jinn witnessed that they have "some vibration with the force..." but it's weaker than a Kyber... & teh Kohlen powered light-saber is weaker than a Kyber powered saber. (though I expect either would chop your head off or slash a droid in half.)
Pijal's moon is the only place you can find teh Kohlenz.
A division of teh Pijal Royal Guard, called "the blackguard" developed an energy shield wit teh Kohlen that a light saber cannot penetrate.

Later they used the Kohlenz in a lightsaber and were surprised to find that a "Kohlen powered lightsaber" could penetrate a "Kohlen shield."
2 guyz discovered a huge cache of Kohlens & did a mining operation thinking they could sell these "Kybers" to the jedi... but after being disappointed that they weren't real Kybers... they had to find another buyer.
"Czerka Arms"... a weapons company thousands of yearz old and rumored by some to be older than the Republic itself, made teh purchase. So there's no telling who they sold too or what else they made.
imo... Orange saberz lean very heavily toward Master Skoll's group being teh Blackguard... but they very well could be with anyone who bought weapons from Czerka Arms.
Those HK-87 assassin droids (that attacked Asoka)...had Thrawn's "chimaera symbol" on their lid
...& their "electro-staff spears were glowing orange


So perhaps Thrawn bought a bunch of Kohlen weapons from Czerka Armz... or even teh Chiss community as a whole could've bought them anticipating a future war wit teh Jedi.
Thrawn's minion Morgan Elsbeth... had 2 of those same assassin droids in "Mando Chapter 13" (where Ahsoka first met Grogu)... so maybe Master Skrull's people are a part of her group... or they joined forces or something.
Interesting stuff. However it works out though... the orange glow on light sabers & thrawn's electro-spears seem to make it pretty fooking clear that Skrull's crew will be taking orders from Thrawn!
