The Heart of Ombus is a pale-orange colored crystalline form Accessory that originates from the planet Ombus. It was one of a few such shards recovered from the Dentavii Prime asteroid during the events of Awakenings in 33 ABY, but is the only remaining crystal. It is nearly indestructible, with blaster bolts, energy attacks, and even lightsabers deflected or otherwise turned aside when brought into contact with it. Those who hold the Heart will find their own connection to the Force strengthened, but at a cost. Any who open themselves to the Heart's influences put themselves at risk of the Heart's bewitching element. The less powerful a Force-user is, the greater chance the artifact will turn back against its user. Losses have ranged from loss of life force and limbs, loss of one's connection to the Force, and even the weakening of an individual's grip on their sanity. The Heart of Ombus awarded for exceptional performance during a vendetta by the Consul.
