<< 3.  The Bogans Crystal (Power Gem).
           The Bogans Crystal was granted to the ancient Sith Warlords by the 
Unifying Force long ago.  The Sith found that it the power to absorb energy.  
However, during the Fall of the Sith Empire, the Bogans Crystal changed 
hands.  It was found by Republic Xenoarchs during the Great Sith Hunt and 
handed over to the Jedi.  It stayed within the ranks of the Jedi all the way 
up until the Clone Wars when it came under heavy use and was lost to the 
ravages of war.  It was mistakenly thought destroyed by those who knew of its 
existence, including Darth Vader.  However, it was not destroyed, because the 
Bogans Crystal has the power to reshape energy and remake power itself.
      The Rebel Alliance uncovered its whereabouts shortly before the Battle 
of Hoth.  It was used as the primary weapon against Darth Vader's newly 
commissioned Super-Class Star Destroyer, the Executer.  A prototype 
starfighter was made to house the Bogans Crystal and a plot was hatched to 
use the crystal on the Executer.  Tapping into the rumored ability to absorb 
power, the Rebel Alliance hoped to absorb the Executer's shields, and then 
cripple the capital ship.  However, the plan went awry when Vrad Dodonna, 
General Jan Dodanna's son failed.  Simply, Vrad Dodanna had no concept of the 
power of the Bogans Crystal thought it had run out of uses.  Both Vrad 
Dodanna and the starfighter were destroyed by the Executer's shields and the 
Bogans Crystal was thought lost as well.  In reality, the Bogans Crystal was 
not lost.  
      Shortly thereafter, the Bogans Crystal was found by Kualsha Serantis, a 
passing Kadri'Ra who had been awakened from his slumber in a nearby asteroid 
by the battle.  Due to his curiosity, Serantis inspected the wreckage and 
naturally found the Bogans Crystal intact.  Serantis was in the process of 
learning about the full powers of the Bogans Crystal when Darth Thanos 
encountered him.  The Kadri'Ra had plans to use the Bogans Crystal as both a 
personal shield system for himself become a weapons platform against the 
Empire, freeing his people.  Those plans, unfortunately for Kualsha Serantis, 
were cut short by Darth Thanos who acquired the Bogans Crystal in a rather 
nasty battle.

 The Bogans Crystal
 The Kiber Crystal has only ever been used to a fraction of its limitless 
power, that is, until it recently fell into the hands of Darth Thanos.  Like 
all of the Crystals of Force, it has been misunderstood by those who used it. 
 Even still, the fact that Vrad Dodanna, a Non-Force-Sensitive was actually 
able to bring down the shields of the Executer, a capital ship, speaks 
volumes about the power of this crystal.  The Bogans Crystal is able to bend 
and reshape the very nature of the power itself - it can remold any source of 
energy, including the mystical energy field known as the Force.  Because of 
this, it has mainly been used to siphon off or boost the energy output by 
those unaware of its true nature.  General Dodanna believed it could remove 
the shields of the Executer, and his son believed him - therefore it behaved 
that way.  However, the Bogans Crystal, like all of the Crystals of Force, 
are only limited by the imagination of the user.
 Control Difficulty:
      Moderate to use the Bogans Crystal
      Heroic to unlock the full potential
 Sense Difficulty:
      Moderate to use the Bogans Crystal
      Heroic to unlock the full potential
 Alter Difficulty: Very Easy for “Very Easy” power alterations
      Easy for “Easy” power alterations
      Moderate for “Moderate” power alterations
      Difficult for “Difficult” power alterations
      Very Difficult for “Very Difficult” power alterations
      Heroic for permanent, massive, all-encompassing, Zero-Hour, absorb the 
Death Star shot power
           alterations
 The power may be kept “up” as long as the power alteration requires it.
 This power is affected by proximity and relationship.
 Effect:
      Using the Bogans Crystal - Using the Crystal acts as an energy 
damper/amplifier for the duration of its 
           use.  This corresponds to a doubling/halving the damage 
done/absorbed by any form of energy.
      Unlocking the full potential of the Kiber Crystal - Unlocking the full 
potential allows for the user to “alter the nature of power within the 
universe” and other miraculous feats.
 -----
 The excellent Marvel series converted to the SWRPG.
 Enjoy.
