A Path to Knighthood.

The Path to Knighthood

The Order of the Grey is like any other Force User sect, and as such we need to have a system in place for making apprentices Knights, and Knights to Masters. Below are the goals and such to reach Knight.

• General Participation: The Grey will not promote people who are not active within it. However, this could be as simple as social threads with other members and/or training rp with Grey members Knight level or higher.

• Basic Training: Grey apprentices will have to have brought five skills to at least apprentice level (One training thread) and at least two of those skills needs to be at Knight level (Using the skill in three separate rps or one advanced training thread). The powers themselves do not need to be taught by Grey members.

• Lightsaber: Each apprentice has to have a lightsaber before they can become a knight. Now, if the character builds it, steals it, already has it, that is up to you. But you do have to have a saber to become a knight.

• Thread Tracker: This is necessary to keep trap of your thread count. Using this on your character sheet will help the members here promote you without having to scan through your rp list. In truth this just makes your character that much easier to promote.

Agreed and Pinned.

 

[Minna]

Half way there (ish) *sings*

Also, when you say 'Skills' does that mean just force powers, or Forms and Techniques aswell?

[member="Krest"]

 

[Darth Ferus]

Forms yes. Explain what you mean by techniques though?

[member="Minna"]

-Edit-

Skills also include things like unarmed, ranged, melee, all that. Non Force powers/Forms do count as well.

 

[Minna]

Techniques I class as things like Meditation, Lightsaber Construction and the ability to dual-wield sabers, and I grade them in the same way I grade my Forms and Powers (Beginner,Adept etc.).
Do they count?

Meditation and Lightsaber Construction would count as techniques yes.

But Dual-Wielding sabers is actually a Form.

"Jar'Kai. Two-blade combat. Anakin Skywalker was a master of Jar'Kai. Weaknesses: One-handed grips are easier to break with Djem So or Vaapad. The off-hand blade can often be disengaged, forced out of position, or incapacitated with subtle maneuvers, as with Makashi."

Well that I didn't know, I'll have to changed that on my bio.
Thanks

How long should training threads be?

 

[Darth Ferus]

Self training should be around 5k words.

One on one/group training should at least have ten good written posts.

@Veino Garn

 

[Veino Garn]

Ah, excellent, thank you.

[Alexandra Feanor]

@Veino Garn

They can always be more, just makes the training even better... like my 6 page Meet and train thread with [member="Minna"] and my current and counting thread with [member="Maleus"]

 

[Veino Garn]

Yeah, that's what I thought. Plus it's good character development work as well.

[Minna]

I've just about met these targets, although I'd like to learn one more lightsaber form which I've organised and will be doing shortly.
What then?
[member="Alexandra Cinthra"]

 

[Alexandra Feanor]

[member="Minna"]

Simple, i test you, then you shall make a saber if you so wish though seeing as you have one there is no true need for this step. And after that, i approach a RPJ

 

[Minna]

[member="Alexandra Cinthra"]
Very well. I just started my Niman Form training thread with Vulpesen. If it's best I'll let you know when that's done before the test.

 

[Veino Garn]

Do you think Veino's ready for the test?
[member="Alexandra Cinthra"]

 

[Darth Ferus]

[member='Veino Garn']

I do. I'll test you myself. In a sithy kind of way.

 

[Veino Garn]

[member="Darth Ferus"]
Marvelous! It should hopefully go better than last time he faced a Sith.

Thanks!

 

[Darth Ferus]

@Veino Garn

No problem! Start up a thread and I'll be there.

 

[Veino Garn]

Public thread? Private thread? Anywhere specific?
