[X] Make the khopesh hardlight, and Tim only has five build slots for this week

Will the other option get any votes at all? Related question: What is wrong with the people voting for the other option(should there be any)?

I'm really tempted to go for the metal option on the basis that it would be educational.
But i don't want to see Missy chopping someones arm off, Tim has more important stuff to do than just arms manufacturing.

I deliberately choose to read this as the khopesh being full of loud music, spiked studded leather jackets and lots of pyrotechnics.

She needs to be able to toast bread while cutting it

*wormhole from The Future[tm] pops open in front of Missy & drops a USB stick in her hand*
Missy: ... Well, that was different. "Doom Eternal Soundtrack?" Hey Calico, scan this and play a track, I'm curious.
Calico Laughing: As you command, my lady. Beginning playback...


Missy: You know, I could get into this. Thanks, mysterious wormhole!

There is another downside of the hardlight blade:
The major downside with the lightsaber, because no option is perfect, is that hardlight blades don't really take spells all that well. That means no weapon-enhancing spells (hey, free spell slot!), but it also means no guarantee of being nonlethal. Turn on sharp mode, and it's going to cut whatever you hit with it, be it doors or walls or arms.

Missy has 2 XP right now. She will have 3 after the Fallen, and the Fallen are not the enemy who shouldn't be hurt.
Weapon-enhancing spell costs 4 XP, so Missy will need to be careful in exactly one fight.
Weapon-enhancing spell will make metal khopesh better and also perfectly non-lethal when Missy wishes so.

Meanwhile light-khopesh can't be enhanced and has two modes:
- a sword that deals less damage than spell-enhanced metal khopesh;
- a baton that deals less damage than a sword but also much less lethal, but still not perfectly non-lethal like spell-enhanced metal khopesh.
