Vernestra Rwoh's lightsaber of choice is unlike anything we've seen on screen in Star Wars–but it has a long history in the old Expanded Universe.
In current continuity, we only have one example of a Lightwhip: Vernestra’s lightsaber, where it is presented as a modification to her traditional lightsaber rather than its own explicit weapon.
The unconventional nature of the lightwhip was as much an asset as its flexible blade. Rare and difficult to master compared to a lightsaber , the lightwhip preyed on an opponent’s unfamiliarity—especially Jedi, who were primarily trained in combat against traditional martial weapons.
After Lumiya’s weapon birthed the existence of the Lightwhip, more traditional forms were codified as ancient and extremely rare weapons wielded by the Sith during the time of the New Sith Wars, thousands of years before the events of the films. Unlike Lumiya’s weapon however, more often than not earlier lightwhips had a singular energy beam, like the lightwhip wielded by the Sith Lord Githany..
