"I have noticed that many of these witches wear elaborate headdresses. I have been told that within these hats, they contain a special stone. I believe that this stone is the source of their "magic"."

―Xarot Korlin^[1]

A Nightsister Force Crystal was a crystal native to Dathomir that was capable of enhancing the Nightsisters' Force abilities. Nightsisters wore it as part of their elaborate headdresses. Imperial Inquisitor Xarot Korlin, who had been studying the indigenous Nightsisters' ways of using the Force, sent an agent to kill one of them to obtain one of these crystals for his studies. The agent noticed that the crystal was very cold to the touch. The agent also felt uneasy having it on their person.^[1]

Behind the scenes

The Nightsister Force Crystal appeared in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts,^[2] prior to its closure on December 15, 2011.^[3] This crystal was an item available through a quest for Imperial Inquisitor Xarot Korlin. By killing a Nightsister, collecting the crystal and then deleting the quest, players were able to retain the crystal for themselves.^[1] The crystals had no Force-enhancing effect, but instead could be used as a decoration for players' houses.^[2]
