Leia Organa Solo's lightsabers
After discovering she was Force-sensitive, Leia Organa Solo utilized multiple lightsabers through her career as a Jedi of the New Jedi Order. Her first lightsaber was created by her twin brother, Luke Skywalker, during the Thrawn campaign in 9 ABY, and was used by Mara Jade to kill both Luuke Skywalker and Joruus C'baoth. This lightsaber had a green blade. She later made use of a yellow-bladed weapon and dueled and killed the fallen Hutt Jedi Beldorion with it on Nam Chorios. The lightsaber Luke gifted her in 18 ABY had a ruby-red blade.[1] Her fourth weapon was a blue-bladed lightsaber that she used throughout the Swarm War and thereafter.
Behind the scenes
When asked about what type of lightsaber she would like during an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert when promoting her new book The Princess Diarist, Carrie Fisher said she liked the color purple.[2]
