Vengent Spectre Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Just to let you guys know I'm probably going to be inactive for the next few days. Quote Life comes, and life goes, flowing like the tide. Peace ebbs, and peace flows, often fleeting just like time. Love can last, but only so, there isn't much before you die. People pass, come to and fro. And eventually revenge too, doe lie. For in the the end, it's only the vengent who lasts forever. The Vengent Spectre. ....................

Geardirector Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Ummm, this is embarassing, but I seem to have encountered a problem. I can't find any styles of combat, for Jedi or Sith that explicitly mention that the focus lies on utilizing the force more than the wielder's weapon. Any suggestions?

Geardirector Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 "The diplomat's form" hmmm. Well, I was kind of planning for my Sith character to be less of a mighty-fighty type, more inclined to deception and cunning, so I could probably make this work.

otter Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Well, the whole point behind Niman is that it's an easily learnt form for somebody who's not planning to use their lightsaber much.

Geardirector Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 The thing with my character is that he doesn't actually have a lightsaber. I figure I might as well say what I had planned, to see if it'll meet the staff's criteria. I was thinking of letting him have a Felucian Skullblade.

HeavyMetalSunshineSister Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Interesting. How did the character acquire it?

otter Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Seeing as the lightsaber forms were developed from duelling forms based around physical blades, and are just as usable with a physical blade as with one of plasma... Or you could just go with Teras Kasi. Quote profiles i guess i'm a south american giant otter now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geardirector Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Skullblades are rare, but can be found on the black market. He "acquired" it from a "former" Black Sun smuggler.

Madara: Mangekyou Master Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Hmmm... A skullblade is a pretty heavy-looking weapon. Aggressive looking. You could probably adapt tactics from Form V if you want. Quote STAR WARS GALAXY AT WAR ... we have cookies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madara: Mangekyou Master Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 FYI (re- an upcoming post relating to the Coruscant chase) everyone should know that Wilhuff Tarkin is considered a hero of the Republic. He's done some pretty amazing stuff against the CIS, and his record indicates that he's stopped more than one CIS superweapon threat against the Republic.

Flex Lord Splash Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 So is the chase still going on? Quote BZP-RPG Profiles Marvel Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavyMetalSunshineSister Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Well, I'm bugging out to Bespin as soon as I get some character interaction (the delay in such has been explained, and will address itself in due time). My ship is currently leaving Coruscant orbit, and I very much doubt that any ship still hanging around near the surface is in a position to catch it before it jumps. So, the sum total of this is some dead clones, some property damage, and a much more entertaining bounty on my character's head than what I started with, I suppose.

Relapse Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 (edited) Alright, this character I've been conceptualizing for awhile, but I only just decided to post him. Name: Praeth Pil'omnSpecies: Twi'lekGender: MaleAge: 37Faction: Jedi OrderSympathies: Undying loyalty to the JediRank: KnightOccupation: Lightsaber InstructorSkills: -As an instructor of Lightsaber dueling and usage, he is incredibly skilled, using Juyo, a form considered one of most difficult to learn, let alone master -As is to be expected, he is not without skills with dual Lightsabers, and even prefers to use them in actual combat-Wide knowledge of disguise, able to hide his identity with ease when needed-Coming out of left field is his skill in brewery- he is quite good at making and serving drinksForce Abilities: Praeth's Force abilities are remarkable for someone at his age. Even though he specializes in Lightsaber combat, he is one of the more skilled among his class.Equipment or Weapons: A Lightsaber enthusiast, he came into possession of an extreme rarity- an orange Lightsaber chrystal. This blade he uses as his primary weapon, while his other Lightsaber, of blue light, is used in dual wielding.Appearance: Praeth is a well-built red Twi'lek, with dragon-like black tattoos lining his left arm and chest. His lekku both hang behind his head unadorned save for wrapping towards the ends. Personality: While blatantly masculine, Praeth can be described as...bubbly. Quite energetic, it isn't difficult to get him excited about things. Loving and lovable, he isn't quite what one would describe a sagely Jedi Knight to be. This isn't to save he's reckless or stupid, however- he's actually rather intelligent.Home Planet: RylothHistory: Like most Force-sensitives on major planets, he was snatched up early on and brought to the Temple on Coruscant. Quite adept in his abilities and naturally a skilled duelist, he rose in rank quickly. To put it simply, most don't become Lightsaber Instructors at his age.

Madara: Mangekyou Master Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 (edited) Shuhei, you have almost no mention of his Force abilities. More detail would be a necessity before I give it approval. If he's a lightsaber instructor, does he teach only younglings, or does he tutor Padawans on the side? (If he teaches younglings, knowledge of Shii-Cho would be a plus).Moreon his description would be good. What kind of clothing does he wear? Is he tall? Does he have odd bulges on his forehead like some male Twi'leks? What's his chin like?
