Plasma

Plasma is the fourth state of matter in the Multiverse. It is most commonly found as lightning or electric sparks, which cannot be characterised as solid, liquid or gas. Plasma is often used by more technologically advanced civilisations that utilise technology to harness plasma, however this is not an exclusive state of matter and occurs naturally such as in stars. Plasma is often used throughout the Multiverse as a source of energy, powering technology.

Examples

 * Energy Master

An Energy Master is a device commonly used by The Pioneers to manipulate plasma in a variety of ways. It would draw in a tiny amount of gas to produce extreme amounts of plasma that could be moulded into various shapes and concentrations, allowing users to create something as dangerous as a sword or as useful as a grappling hook.

 * "Plasma is one of the four fundamental states of matter (the others being solid, liquid and gas). Heating a gas may ionize its molecules or atoms (reducing or increasing the number of electrons in them), thus turning it into a plasma, which contains charged particles: positive ions and negative electrons or ions." - Wikipedia  opening statement.

Plasma was naturally produced in stars, although it could be found in other places in the galaxy  and created artificially by electrifying, heating or otherwise energizing gasses." - Wookiepedia version of plasma as used in the fictional universe of Star Wars
