- The Brohk is able to use basic force powers (physical enhancement, telekinesis, etc.) at the level of a Knight in strict combat settings only.
- The Brohk has a mastery-level skill in all common and uncommon lightsaber forms, as well as unarmed combat disciplines.
- The use of carbon-fiber joints means that the Brohk has mobility and agility skills that can rival most trained organics.
- Durasteel-reinforced knuckle joints.
- SACG-23S shock-absorbant gel is incorporated into the ligaments and 'feet' of the Brohk, allowing for it to withstand higher pressure.
- The Brohk has an enhanced memory that allows it to remember previous engagements and adjust its fighting style to better counter its opponent.
- The droid can run through holographic diagrams of battles, allowing for users to capture the dueling patterns of their opponents and then configure the Brohk to act in that way as well.
- Protocols prevent the Brohk from seriously harming its opponents and from carrying lethal weapons.
- Training Mode: The Brohk can be configured to run through different lightsaber forms or sequences to the user's desire. This also allows for the user to customize the Brohk's skill level to the extent of their capabilities.
- Free-Form Mode: In this setting the Brohk can and will do everything in its knowledge to best its enemy. This can be used as a 'final test' for someone's skill and dexterity, although it is admittedly extremely challenging to do so.
- Grandmaster: The Brohk-type has almost know limit when it comes to knowledge and skill in the galaxy's wide range of melee and martial combat. Able to train with both lightsabers and fist-to-fist, the Brohk can match nearly anyone in terms of melee combat. In addition to that, the Brohk can use a limited amount of force-moves (restricted to basic telekensis, physical augmentation and that class of skills) at the level of a standard Jedi Knight tobetter simulate combat against a Force User.
- The Ultimate Trainer: The primary and only purpose of the Brohk is to serve as a sparring droid. Thus, the Brohk can be configured through a variety of settings depending on the user's needs or wishes. It is also able to remember its previous sparring matches and can incorporate that data to further help train its user. The Brohk can also incoporate holo-diagrams of duelers to match their patterns and style, allowing for the user to train against a simulation of specific opponents.
- Life-Like: The Brohk is extremely agile, durable, and strong which makes it hard for the body or any other component of the droid to be actually damaged. The shape of the droid's chassis is also extremely similar to that of most non-humans, providing its user with realistic strike zones during combat.
- Non-Lethal: Although it has theoretically nearly-unmatched skill in terms of dueling, the Brohk is not designed to be a live-fire droid. Its protocols prevent the droid from imposing any serious damage or injury on its opponents, and will go so far as to completely shut down the droid if senses a lethal weapon in its possession. The Brohk also has no skill when it comes to blaster or other forms of ranged combat.
- A Contender, not a Teacher: While the Brohk has an extremely high-level skill ceiling and great deal of assets when it comes to dueling and training, the droid is not a teacher. Thus, users of the Brohk must create their own regimens and largely self-direct their training (or utilize a separate teacher) and cannot rely on the Brohk for explicit instruction.
- Where's the Holocamera: While the holodiagram analyzing capabilities of the Brohk are extremely helpful when it comes to simulating combat against specific individuals, this capability is limited somewhat by the droid requiring actual hologram footage of the requested opponent. Lack of footage or poor quality can greatly reduce the capabilities of this function.
- Force Void: Any technology or creatures that dampen or completely null effects of the Force apply to the Brohk as well, and in those situations will not be able to use the force.
A highly advanced sparring droid intended to take lightsaber combat dueling to the next level, the TVX-25 Brohk-type sparring droid is created to be a unique model that acts as the perfect training droid for any lightsaber or melee fighter. Designed to be the ultimate tool for one who practices with melee weapons or in the various martial arts and disciplines that the galaxy has to offer, the Brohk was created with several significant advantages that give it a cutting edge within sparring droid technology.
One often overlooked but crucial element of the Brohk is the chassis of the droid and its overall design. With joints and a body that fits the profile of most human and near-human alien types, the Brohk makes strike zones and dueling more realistic with this physical similarity. The droid is also made with strong-resistance armor that can absorb blows and shock-absorbant gel that likewise absorbs kinetic impacts, which makes the droid stronger and elss likely to be the victim of wear-and-tear.
In terms of its fighting capabilities, the Brohk is perhaps one of the most advanced in the galaxy with a master-level of skill in all common lightsaber forms as well as hand-to-hand combat disciplines. With the ability to remember previous sparring lessons and update its own fighting skill as well, the Brohk can update its own formulas to better fit the patterns of its opponents, adding to the level of challenge and difficulty when facing this droid. In addition to that, the sparring droid features an imbued Tsil Crystal which allows for the droid to perform basic force moves such as telekenesis and physical augmentation (at the level of a standard Jedi Knight) to better simulate dueling against a force-user.
When it comes to training, the Brohk has a multitude of options to fine-tune its user's experience. From the start, the droid's opponent can select whether to spar against the droid in regular Training Mode or the more-difficult Free Form mode, where the Brohk has free reign to use anything in its power to try and defeat its opponent. Furthermore, the droid can be custom-programmed to follow specific routines or strike patterns if a user is trying to perfect a certain technique. What's more than that is the ability for the Brohk to analyze holodiagrams of other fighters to create a simulation of dueling that force-wielder, although the function requires a holographic video of that fighter and in good quality.
However, in spirit of its nature as a training droid, the Brohk is specifically programmed to be as nonlethal as possible. The designers at Roble Manufacturing recongized the potential ramifications of an unbeatable wardroid and what could happen if someone with bad intentions obtained the droid's control matrix, and thus imposed several limitations and safeguards to prevent the droid from actually harming anyone. Apart from protocols that prevent the Brohk from causing any serious injury to its opponent, the droid will prevent itself from harming others by going to the extent of power off its own systems if it senses that there is a lethal weapon within its own possession.
Overall, the Brohk is a highly variable, durable and quite valuable sparring droid that will greatly enhance the skill and training of whoever is lucky enough to own the droid.
