Kylo Ren — Ben Solo, grandson of Darth Vader — assembled his own weapon rather than inherit one, and the result is the most unstable hilt in the saga. The kyber crystal at its heart is cracked, so the energy it can't contain bleeds off through two lateral vents. That's the crossguard: not decoration, but a pressure valve.
A stable crystal gives a clean, even blade. Kylo's doesn't — hence the ragged, spitting plasma and the two quillons. On our sabers that look comes from the crossguard hilt and the preloaded sound font: blade colour and effects stay configurable on the soundboard, so the same hilt can run Kylo's profile or anyone else's.
Episode VII, The Force Awakens — ignited in the forest on Starkiller Base against Rey and Finn. It was the first crossguard lightsaber shown in a Star Wars film, and it divided the fandom on sight.
Every hilt here comes across blade formats and soundboards: Base Lit for the best-value way into duelling, or Neopixel for film-bright effects and flash-on-clash. Cross-check the duelling collection if contact sparring is the plan, and keep spare blades to hand.
He built it himself, following Sith tradition, after turning from his training under Luke Skywalker.
The kyber crystal is cracked and can't contain the energy running through it. The two quillons vent the excess — which is also why the blade looks ragged rather than clean.
