First there is a silver aboard the sith ship the Ravager at least i think it's called the Ravager it's ine one of the rooms i think by a workshop but the point is that there is a silver crystal.

Second i wouldn't mind to see a couple girlie colors for when the player be's a female (whether the player is female or not) i wouldn't mind seeing a pink for female Jedi masters instead of purple.

I've changed my mind. I'm now partial to my friend Dave's idea (which is probably the sweetest idea ever): a red saber, spotted with green, and every time you pull it out, it smells like watermelon
If that's not the best idea you've ever heard, why don't you go think up something better

Alien Newborn: very funny but the black saber would be sorta nice it would look pretty interesting in a well lit area but a scented multi colored crystal i dont think the players will respond to that well but i could be wrong.

But i sorta changed your idea a bit, how bout a double lightsaber with two different colors at each end like green and blue or yellow and purple.

Smelly lightsabers....... ...as for the two colored blades and two colored double blades I don't see how that is even possible.....If I remember correctly double bladed lightsabers only have one power source and the crystal is used to focus that power so only one would be able to work.....but that would be cool if they figured out a way to make two colored double blades....as for this Multi colored Single Hilt....not gonna happen...one power sorce one crystal

It can't. Black is not a color...in essence it's the absence of light. How could you have a black "light"saber...maybe a really dark purple would work. Otherwise I don't think there will ever be a "Black" lightsaber.

How about either golden, aqua-blue, or olive-green lightsabres?

alignment colors

this would be cool, you should be able to choose all of your hilt designs and the style of them or how long or short they are, and the clor should change with your alignment. So if you are total light side it should be a silver lightsaber, if you are total dark it should be blood red like "the exile" mentioned to atton in the begginning of kotor II, and then if you a little light side it should be blue, green, violet, orange, red and then red and lastly the dark red. That would be super cool, cuz then youwould get a lot of variety when fighting different jedi or sith, and you could then learn a lot about their character when you are speaking or fighting them.

I've been thinking lately about those saber colour's, and here's what I figured out.

First - how about a saber, that colour reflect's your current feeling's, like anger, peace, fear? You know, if you're angry then it change's to red, when at peace then it's green. Althought it is super-high unlikely they will put this idea into the game, it's still worth mentioning it.

Second - the black saber. I got an idea for realising such thing. How? Let's say that there was a Sith or Fallen Jedi evil enough, that he\she could even corrupt focusing crystal. Then, the saber would give the normal colour of saber, blue for example, but due to the influence of the wielder it can be sorrounded with dark matter. I know this is pure science-fiction, but with some changes it could be done (in the game of course).

i like the sound of your 'black' lightsaber, although i doubt i'd use a black lightsaber, i prefer the orange, violet and silver ones too much. a lightsaber that reflects your emotions would be really good but as you said it would be unlikely to be included. there are too many complications - like how would the game decide accurately what your character's emotions are at that time?. and would the colour be then fixed until your next set of dialogue, even if your feelings have changed long before then? its a nice idea though and it would be good if they could find a way to make something like that work.

Ok first thing a noticed is lets get the colors right.

DS is red thats a given but LS is not green the opposite of red is blue. Just like the opposite of Dark is Light.

So now that we cleared that lets get back to the topic.

A "emotional crystal" (i'll call it that) wouldn't be a good idea but thats just my opinion no reason they shouldn't add it to the game just i wont use it. Personally i use the color of which side i'm on like i said red for DS and blue for LS.

Not exactly. LS players have used many colours of lightsabers throughout the games, and in the movies. I believe the first lightsaber in the movie series was green.

This is more along the lines of just having different colour armament. The red is just to signify they follow different teachings, not that they are evil, and that blue is good.

Ok the first color of both Luke and Ben Kenobi's lightsaber is blue and then luke constructs a new lightsaber and then it's green.

And the whole sith and jedi conflicts are about opposites. Like i said Dark vs Light and red vs blue.

Lucas siad it himself or else i wouldn't be arguing about now.

Because I'm a big Nerd, I looked up the meaning of lightsaber colours, apparently each colour signifies different characteristics of whom weilds that lightsaber. I took a quiz, and my saber colour is Green. It reads...

"Green is your Lightsaber's color. Green is the color of nature. It symbolizes growth, harmony, and freshness. Green has strong emotional correspondence with safety. Green is also commonly associated with wealth and happiness, so someone with a green lightsaber like yourself is a fortunate soul."

Yay, I'm an ecological Jedi. Green also says I like bedroom sports a lot ^^ .

If your interested in finding out what kind of Jedi you would be and what kind of saber you would weild, check out this quiz.
Source.

In the KotOR game there were three colours for the diffferent types of jedi avilable, and in the second those numbers increased. Red vs. Blue doesn't seem to be the way it works anymore, if it ever did. As you can see, I believe sources a lot more than I like posts when regarding facts.

However, there was a talk about red being evil, and both green and blue being good, until more colours were added. Below:

Quote:
Bad guys red, good guys blue or green.

Thanks to Sam Jackson, they can also have purple, although yellow has also been used in video games.

There is no real reason for this other than the psychology of red being mean and evil.
