    Taizen's training

    "Of course. Come along, Padawan. We're going to venture offworld, probably closer to the Core." Chester pointed toward a small, two-man Jedi starfighter that was already ready to launch. The Jedi Master took the pilot's seat while he allowed his Padawan to get settled in the co-pilot/gunner's...

    Taizen's training

    "Ah, calm yourself, Padawan." Chester deactivated his own lightsaber and placed it on his belt. "We're done here." The Jedi Master brushed the dust and other residual debris from his cloak before returning his attention to Taizen. He had -presumably- gotten his lightsaber back by now...

    What are you Listening to (reboot)?

    imo, neither of those would qualify as metal. Maybe hard rock, but definitely not metal. Second Chance - Shinedown

    Taizen's training

    Chester grasped Taizen's ankle, but his grip was awkward and the strike still managed to hit his upper shoulder. Letting go of his Padawan's foot, he waited until Taizen recovered his balance and then advanced. He swung left, and then right, aiming for his Padawan's arms. Then, regardless of...

    Taizen's training

    Chester watched his Padawan leap through the air toward his position. The Jedi Master redirected his weapon, positioning it near his head to defend his upper body. As Taizen flew over Chester, he repulsed the attack; Taizen's strike was parried while the Padawan himself continued toward the...

    Taizen's training

    Chester used the Force to create a ripple of telekinetic energy that sent Taizen flying back, although there was a good chance that he would still have both lightsabers. Regardless, Chester needed a moment to breathe, and it wasn't likely that his Padawan would relent anytime soon. *Timeskip*...

    Taizen's training

    The duel was getting quite violent. With Taizen's lightsaber disengaged, Chester had a chance to turn their fight around. His Padawan's grip tried to keep him contained, like a vice, but the Jedi Master was quite strong in his own right. He managed to force his left hand free, and as he flew...

    Taizen's training

    Chester Ducere watched his Padawan approach, both lightsabers in hand. He had put up Force armor, just in case his Padawan attacked him before the Jedi Master could strike back. However, his defense wasn't needed, so he put it down when his student approached him from the side. Taizen had...

    Taizen's training

    {{Duels are dependent on all their participants. I've never involved myself in an RP lightsaber duel outside of training threads, so I can only offer some advice based on what I've read. If a post is well-written, detailed, and believable (based on the character's strength), then there's a...

    Taizen's training

    Chester smiled as his Padawan dodged his attack. He was using the environment and he proved quite capable at using the Force. However, Chester too was proficient in these same skills. Instead of leaping up and attacking his Padawan -as Taizen probably expected he would- and exposing himself to...

    Taizen's training

    Chester rolled forward and dodged the attack entirely. He was on the ground for but a few seconds, and it was unlikely his Padawan could have gotten in an additional strike. Once he was back on his feet, Chester approached his Padawan from the side and struck at his abdomen, using both of his...

    Taizen's training

    "Indeed. I think you may be able to work on each of those skills, in the coming duels. As a hopeful Makashi duelist, I think you should work on trading power for grace, and ferocity for precision. The Makashi duelist's goal is to either disarm the opponent or to tire them out while keeping your...

    Obama showing his Bush-y side.

    Either my knowledge of the American political system is horrendously outdated, or your use of the term 'progressive' to describe Bush is incorrect.

    Taizen's training

    Once Taizen recovered his footing, Chester deactivated his lightsaber. "Halt. That's good enough, for a first round. Tell me, what did you think while you were fighting? What did you feel? Did you think -aside from your quick fumbling with your feet- that you did anything wrong? What can you...

    Taizen's training

    {{I don't see how I backflipped, and then you backflipped next to me, but I'll play along.}} Chester had seen his Padawan jump and avoid his thrown lightsaber. However, the Jedi Master had recovered his weapon before Taizen managed to attack. He pivoted toward his pupil, lightsaber in hand...
