@Someone: Even with a villain it wouldn't help make an exciting one. Three combat scenarios arise against a lightsaber weapon:

•Close range one-on-one: Hero's fucked.

-Long and perhaps even mid-range combat: Villain's fucked.

-Multi-combat: Villains fucked.

Although an interesting weapon its application is as such that it leads to boring fights that are both short and usually stacked against the wielder. It would take a very good reason for someone to use it that it would likely be determined bad writing or plot bs.
