GENERAL INFORMATION

• Holocron Name: The Holocron of combat
• Alignment: Neutral
• Origin: Made by Caltin Vanagor
• Affiliation: Caltin Vanagor (though will be going to Jax Thio )
• Gatekeeper: There are several “Guardians” of the holocron and each one is a Master who taught Caltin of these forms. Caltin himself teaches Djem So, Shien, Jar’Kai, JuYo, and Vaapad as well as the fighting style “Strong style” in it.
• Description: To answer questions from the user, as well as offer “review” type lessons on each form, sub-form, and fighting style.

DEFENSES

• Accessibility: Before a user can access the secrets of, say, Shien, they must first perform a Kata of Djem So, its alternate form, or at least Soresu, proving the subforms capabilities. In the cases of Ataru, or Makashi, Shii Cho must be shown. Long story short, the user must prove capable with a weapon, and not “Start at the top”.
• Security: If the user does not perform the Kata (sort of a visual combination lock) successfully, the image tells them to practice and immediately shuts down.

CONTENT INFORMATION
In short, this Holocron teaches what Caltin is capable of in the arena of combat. The lightsaber forms, the sub-forms, the fighting styles. He cannot always be there to teach, but his Holocron is a good substitute.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
When he was a Jedi Knight, Caltin furiously learned as much as he could about lightsaber combat. All of the forms, the sub-forms, the fighting styles, self-defense, he learned it all eagerly to be able to “take the fight to the Sith”. Over time he had gained a lot of knowledge but soon realized (once he reached the level of “Master”) that he wasn’t always going to fight every fight but there was a lot of knowledge inside his noggin. This Holocron was created at first for him to be able to research and access old memories and skills. Now, it is something that he will pass on to a descendant.
