Special Rules

Apprentices

Every school of the Force has learners, so why not be one of them? After all, not everyone is a master. Here are the rules:

-You're Force skills are incredibly weak. Do not expect to be lifting things bigger than say a stack of books, and that's with practice.

-Lightsaber skills are on par with someone who has been practicing with a vibrosword for a few months. Saber throws and other fancy tricks are out of question until after some practice.

-You may only use a lightsaber. Not two, not a greatsaber, not a saberstaff. One saber.

-You're stuck with lightsaber Form 1, although you can tweak it a little to your style. Don't expect to be able to do any crazy acrobatics:

Shii-Cho - The most basic techniques, the basics of attack, parry, body target zones, and the practice drills called velocities are all here. Pretty much stuck with anything you can use. Effective if honed, especially against multiple opponents, but overall weak.

-Your Master will teach you to develop Force Skills. You can't perfect all of them obviously, but you can grow proficient in one or two skills per planet visited or training sessions done.

These skills are:


Padawan/Apprentice: Everyone starts off as a youngling. You must be trained by a knight. Your skills are non-existant mostly. So you start off:

-No force powers, but gain one or two per planet, depending on time spent.

-No using dual or poleblades until knighthood, and using only Style 1.

-Must choose preferance for the force or the lightsaber. see below.

1)Preference:

This is the style which you fight. It determines some factors, though remember what you will be using before you hastily decide.

Lightsaber: You are more skilled with a lightsaber, and tend to me more aggressive to get to a fight. You handle the sabers with more efficiency than a normal student, but that doesn''''t mean you are god. Your dexterity has left you slightly lacking in force skills. You will have a slight edge in battle with your saber, but that doesn''''t mean you will win.
Bonus: Handling of lightsabers and fighting techniques for closer combat in confined spaces, and use of duals or poleblades at knighthood.

Force: You will have more stamina when using the Force, and you will be more powerful when using them. While less adept with the lightsaber, your Force skills more than make up for it.
Bonus: Better sensing and tune with force and more powerful techniques.


As said before, you will also learn one to two skills per planet. You can choose from (description later):

-Force Push/Pull
-Force Jump
-Force Levitate
-Force Speed
-Mind Probe
-Force Persuade
-Force Heal
-Force Absorb
-Battle meditation
-Force Lightning
-Dark Craze
-Force Choke
-Controlled Lightning
-Mind Manipulation
Skills Description:

Push/Pull: This skill is a duh. You can push or pull one unwilling opponent.

Jump: Ability to jump higher and farther, as well as land with better control from high distances.

Speed: This is you on Crank. You are insanely fast, but only in dire times. You will almost run faster than a laser.

Levitate: Allows you to pick up inanimate objects and throw them, such as a rock or your lightsaber.

Mind Probe: Search someone''''s thoughts and feelings and maybe discover somethign of interest.

Force Persuade: Not quite a mindtrick or mindcloud yet, you can still influence people to a small degree using this skill. It will not affect the strong of mind, and the weak of mind only are influenced, not controlled.

Heal: Everybody needs a little healing sometime. Not as good as bacta, but great first aid. However, this is not an instant process. Healing takes time, so use sparringly.

Force Absorb: Takes most Force attacks and absorbs them, aka deflect them.

Battle Meditation: By meditating, the Jedi can forsee incoming attacks before some happen, and have a chance to block more. It also works on a larger scale, influencing those allies around you to be more confident, and boost morale.

Dark Craze: A technique that drains you until battle is over or you pass out. Speed, dexderity, strength, and focus increase.

Lightning: Go Palpantine on tha fool! Self-explanitory. Only effective against one person.

Choke: Works on more than just choking, but who cares? Can be used to pick up living objects and throw them as well. So technically it''''s grip...

Controlled Lightning: Not necessarily a Dark Side move, this skill conjures green lightning that knocks victims unconcious

Mind Manipulation: This ranges from being able to influence a persons thoughts to a greater extent to erasing parts of memory.

Note that Imperial Knights can use any combination of these skills. The Jedi will stick mostly to neutral and blue skills, while Sith will mostly use red and grey skills.

Knights

You've passed the trials and are now a fledged knight. Your mastery of the Force is more complete than before, and your skills are much more fine-tuned.

Knights:

-Take orders from the council or lords
-Can train apprentices and become masters.
-Can use dual sabers or poleblades if focusing on lightsaber preferance
-Can change their form from form 1 to another:


Form 2: Makashi - An old style rarely used by the jedi. One studies the precise manipulation of the blade, making them very strong against another lightsaber wielder. However, in this present day and age, blasters and other weapons are used, and the precise manipulation of blades pretty much sucks against blaster fire. Sith should consider this form, if expecting many duels with jedi. Dooku used this style.

Form 3: Soresu - The all around Defensive style. Unlike form 2, this style is quite adept at blocking lasers. It is widely reguarded that form 3 is even invincible once mastered, as it depends on effecient movements and precise control to block blasters and lightsabers. The only downside is that the form is not for offense, rather, it is stronger when redirecting a blaster or attack back at the opponent. Obi-Wan preferred this style.

Form 4: Ataru- Unlike Form 3 and it''''s lack of exposure, Form 4 does the opposite. Using acrobatic movements and the force to move as much as possible, its defense relies more on evading rather than blocking. Mastery makes the user a blur, and only the strongest can defend against it. Yoda and Qui-gon both used this technique.

Form 5: Shien- Focusing on offensive, this style is basically pound the s**t out of the opponent. While form three is defensive, soemtimes it cannot overpower the opponent. Shien takes this, and using many defensive abilities from three, allows to push through. However, it sacrifices some defence for this. Widely reguarded as a domination style, Vader embodied this style.

Form 6: Niman- The diplomatic style, 6 incorporates all styles 1-5. Very flexible in its usage, Niman is very useful where one does not know what to expect. In knowing all the other styles, however, it isn''''t as focused, making it have no other distinct advantage.


Certain skills upgrade upon knighthood if they were originally trained in the pre-requisites. These skills are:

Force Push > Force Wave
Force Speed > Force Sprint
Force Persuade > Jedi Mindtrick/ Sith Mindcloud
Force Lightning > Force Storm

Descriptions:

Force Wave: A skill much like push, this skill can fire a "wave" of force energy, and knock all people down in that general direction.

Force Sprint: A skill that exceeds Force Speed. Using all the energy in a quick burst, one is able even to outrun a blaster... for a short distance.

Mind trick: *waves hand* You will not fight me. Doesn''''t work on powerful minds. Can make people bend to do actions.

Sith Mindcloud: Much like the Jedi mindtrick, you can make weak minds do your bidding. But unlike the mindtrick, it is by confusion instead of clarity.

Force Storm: Even more powerful than lightning, this not only targets more than one opponent, but has more range, and covers a greater area than lightning.

Masters

Force Masters have an almost complete mastery of the Force and are able to use any skill with much power and skill.


Masters Can:

-Take apprentices or guide Knights
-learn the last saber form
-Learn an Ultimate force power


Form 7: Juyo or Vaapad- Mace Windu''''s own style, it is styles 1-6, but better. It is by far the most powerful, but relatively fresh and undiscovered. In fact, only Mace Windu himself had ever come close to mastering it. The downside is the complexity of the style can take decades to learn, and thus, many prefer to master another style. If learned though, the style will be bold, powerful, demanding, but not flashy. Only one word can describe it: Overwelming.


Ultimatum Moves:

Force Sphere: A neutral Force move, it involves creating a bubble of sorts, and pushing all objects away from the user in all directions for about 50 feet. Basically: Force push, except 360 degrees.

Force Shield: Another Neutral skill, the user may choose to put forth a combination of levitate, push, and absorb in a concentrated attack that works effectively against all incoming projectiles, much like a shield.

Jedi Meld: Link minds with other force-users, allowing many to act as one person. Consequences however, include that minds could potentially overload and kill a person if they are not proficient enough in the Force.


Force Feedback: The limited nature of force absorb is limited to only absorbing or deflecting the attack of lasers and force moves. However, a trained master can capture, and then redirect the attack right back at an opponent. However, many times this creates a deadlocked battle, turning the battle into a lightsaber dual instead of a force battle.

Drain life: A true sith skill, the sith lord can drain life out of his opponent, and convert it back to him. However, this does not work all of the time, and the target must be weakened to have any real effect as well.

Mind Shift: A skill used by sith lords who would rather use deception and trickery than direct confrontation. Sith Lords with this skill can literally seperate their spirtual entities including the force out of their corporal husk. They can either sit tight, not move their bodies, and basically etherally travel like ghosts to places, or remote control their bodies and not be sensed through unnatural means.

Trauma: Cause some sort of Trauma to the other party, the severity of which can vary on the user's intent. Examples include losing functions of the legs for a short time or pulling a Jacen Solo and causing an aneurism.

Minimise Literally minimize one's presence in the Force to nothing. Originally used by Vergere on Jacen Solo, this ability is to keep one's force-signature hidden from others for months.



Remember the color association with your factions. PM all information to me or Nelowulf, as per standard.

Centers of Attention

Finished

In an unknown location in space, in a building somewhere beyond the prying eye of the public, several figures made their appearance to discuss their plans. The meeting featured six sith, all intrinsically connected to the upcoming details.

Presiding over everything, Darth Krayt watched over the group, specifically a pair of females in front of him. Darth Maladi and Darth Talon, the head of Sith Intelligence and Torture and his personal hand respectively, rose from a kneel, and paid their respects. To his left, Darth Wyyrlock, Krayt's most trusted and loyal lieutenant, observed the proceedings. One sith, however, was not actually announced, as his presence was demanded by Krayt himself. While every sith could feel the cold which eminated from the spectre, none wished to acknowledge the presence of the shadow.

Ferno watched, along with HM-74 beside him. The droid made no noise, as the only thing which gave Ferno away was the lack of warmth created by him, as one could feel the life ebbing away from his presence, being drawn to him and then destroyed.

"Mi'lord, I have forseen the Emperor Fel amongst the Moff Council. He will be there when we spring our trap. When the coup on Coruscant comes, he will be destroyed," Continued Darth Maladi.

"According to your subordinate, Darth Ferno, his visions prove the opposite, though. According to him, he will not be there at all. What have you to say about this?" Krayt retorted, indicating the robed figure in the corner.

"Everyone knows that foresight is a very tricky skill. I believe I have managed to prove my worth so far. That assassin only shows the moff council when fel is not there. It may very well be he is accurate, just foreseeing the council before Fel arrives. I do not trust his vision to bear any weight upon our attack."

"But is not Lord Ferno the one whom pioneered the mechanics of our sabotague? Is he not the one whom made it possible for us to take advantage and get us where we are here?"

"It is very true, mi'lord," Maladi started, "But I assure you, Fel will be disposed of when our attack comes. I bet my life that he will be finished, and our ascention will be complete."

"I will expect that to be a binding promise, Maladi," Krayt commanded, as he dismissed Ferno with a wave of his hand. Ferno lowered a bow, and disappeared into the shadows of the building.

The clatter of the HM droid followed Ferno down the hallway, to the hangar bays which held the shuttle which the sith would utilize.

"I fear that Maladi has destroyed herself this time, master. I was still curious as to why you did not tell Darth Krayt about your full vision, but now I understand. In only revelaing part of the dream, you were able to make Maladi expose herself into a position which she would risk her life. When her vision fails, she will pay for it, allowing you to advance. But you have not dealt with Talon, the personal hand of Krayt, master. I have no doubt you have something ready, even for the hot-headed witch, master."

Ferno made no response, as expected, and headed into the hangar, to board the ship destined for another part of the galaxy.

The rugged hills and crags of Ord Mantell's badlands were not a place to take likely. Sharp spires and trecherous rock formations, coupled with sweltering heat and hostile local animals made up the outback of the mid rim world. Once away from the seas, the land was nothing but rock, scrub brush and desolation.

Jando North could not fathom what drew his prey all the way into the outback. The olive armored Bounty hunter scanned the surrounding ridges with a pair of Macro binoculars, seeking the Jedi that supposedly dwelt out here.

Local latinum prospectors had said they've seen a strange looking man wandering around the wilderness and have seen glowing blue beams at night. Local underground sources said that the Empire was willing to pay top Cred for jedi, even more for live capture. Put the two together and that meant an easy payday for Jando. Lone Jedi were few and far between these days, and one wandering alone in the wilderness far from aid was a chance too tempting to pass up.

The problem was, the fellow was hard to track, especially out in the wilderness. For two days he had been trailing a man on foot, the only lead he had come across. It could be his target, or it could just be a hiker or prospecter. But until he found out for certain-
His binocs caught a humanoid figure making its way up a hill two kliks away, His prey in sight at last.

The Hunter hopped into his open top airspeeder and jetted off towards his target, rifle in hand.

The figure seeme to have heard him comming, for it stopped and waited for the speeder to draw closer.

The footprints Jando had been trailing belonged to a young man of medium height with blue eyes and blond hair held out of his eyes by a red scarf. The man's green jacket was slung over his shoulder and the sleaves of his blue shirt were rolled up. A vibrocutlass hung from his belt as well as a holstered blaster.

As Jando pulled up, the man smiled and jerked out his thumb for a ride.

"Are you going to Paradise City?" The young man asked.

Jando snapped his rifle up at the man. "Hands up you."

The young man's face fell and he gave a tired sigh. He unbuckled his gunbelt and let it drop to the ground. He threw his coat down and began taking his shirt off, much to Jando's confusion.

"What are you doing?"

Dropping his shirt on the slowly growing pile of items, the manproceede to fish his wallet out of his pants, revealing a blackened sun tattoed on the inside of his right forearm.

"This is a hold up correct?" He asked. "You seek to deprive a poor traveler of his meager possecions through use of threatened violence. Well take what you wish, but the poor traveler before you has little in the way of material gain."

The man glowered at the youth. "I don't want your crap. now get in."

The blond fellow gave a startled look and chuckled nervously. "Um...that offer, tempting as it is, will have to be declined. The poor traveler does not hold much of an attraction to those of a similar gender or to the other genders for that matter. So if you please be so kind as to-"

A blaster bolt glassed the sand before the stranger's feet and he hastily took a step back. "I'm here for the bounty on your head Jedi!" Jando said angrily.

The man looked throughoughly confused. He tilted his hea slightly to the side and glanced at the speeder's control pannel.

"The traveler does not remember commiting any crimes worth putting a bounty on a poor traveler's head. Nor does he recall one on jedi."

"Shut up and get in the speeder before I decide to just blast you here an now!"

"But you do not bode well for the traveler's well being. To go with you would insure incarceration, and no one enjoys looking out of prison bars."
"Thats it!" The hunter barked impatiently as his finger tightened on the gun's trigger.

Suddenly the Speeder rocketed forward. The hunter's shot went wide over the blond fellow's shoulder as his speeder crashed into a rock. as the man was flung forwar, the airbag deployed and pushed him back down in his seat.

Donning his shirt and gearbelt once more, the young man moseyed over to where jando wrecked his speeder.

As the man groaned painfully, the youth reached in and took the rifle.
"A wise man wears his helmit with his armor." He calmly stated as he drew the powerpack out of the gun. He tossed the unloaded rifle in the passenger seat and pocketed the ammo pack. "Perhaps when you come to you will realize the folley of your ways and seek a far less hazardous proffesion."

The man stared up at the blue sky with its odd pink clouds for a moment, pondering what events were about to unfold. with a shrug he shouldered his jacket and resumed his trek, intent on reaching his destination.

Aurora woke up as the sun poured into her room on in her family's apartment. She reluctantly got up and dressed in a purple dress with a hood to cover her lecku. She then grabbed a breakfast bar from the small kitchenette and walked out the door. She walked down the white hallways stopping at a lift to get in and took it to the casino floor hoping to find one of the Starsingers there.

Gorwooken looked over at Veron and nodded, Growling an affirmitave. Making his way through the crowd at the casino, past the sabaac tables and bars to yet another lift. Barking a 'farewell, for now.' to Veron, he pushed the 'up' button on the lift, and entered. The lift went up one more floor, and the door opened. Gorwooken reached into one of the pouches on his belt and pulled out a card key. He slid the card key into a slot on the lift's control panel, and punched in a short code. The doors to the lift closed yet again, and it traveled up one more floor, to the Starsinger's private landing platform. Whenever Mistress Freya landed, it would be here, Gorwooken know, so he stood by the door and waited.
