Pink Lightsaber Syndrome

"Not Cool!"

- Darth Cool comments on his affliction

PLS or Pink Lightsaber Syndrome is an ailment that mainly afflicts Dark Lords of the Sith in their old age.

Causes
Sith Lords that do not face PWNage when the time is right, often find themselves succumbing to what is now known as PLS. Their strength drains and force sensitivity decreases, leading to a number of signs that the Sith has reached senility.

Early Symptoms
In the earliest stages of PLS a Sith lord will show a marked decline in sensibility. The Sith often lose their composure and are overcome by bouts of evil cackling followed by incoherent screams and diarrhoea int eh form of force lightning. Although still fully capable of functioning as a normal Sith Lord, they show a growing interest in younger boys, which probably accounts for the ancient practice of taking on an apperentice. As they are most often the ones to kill you, there would be no other reason to ever do this.

Later Stages
If the Sith has managed to escape PWNAGE thus far (and mind you, thats reeeeeaaaaaaaaaally umlikely, cause they get so incredibly annoying by now) The disease takes on its most horrific form, which in turn gave the disease its name.

Sapped of all force, the Sith lightsabre begins to lose colour, turning into the gayest shade of pink possible. It also loses much of its strength causing the blade to droop flaccidly.

In addition, the Sith Lord also finds himself unable to destroy any more planets choosing instead to fill them with pink fluffy bunnies. The Former Sith Lord then retires to a life of writing Harry Potter Fluff fiction.

Cures
Besides PWNage, there are no known cures for PLS except for one possible antidote, developed by Mace Windu. Having sabre troubles of his own, Windu was known to have developed a Pill that reinforced his sabre and turned it a nice rosy purple. However since Mace Windu never actually owned a lightsaber (what he had was a bit different) it is unreasonable to assume this pill would work for ailing Sith. Nevertheless, Windu was known to have spent large amounts of time peddling pills to unsuspecting Sith Lords, waiting till the last minute switch his Blue cure pill with a pill that led to certain doom.
