Faenor of the Silver Laurel wrote: By the way, I'm trying to figure out everyone's fighting styles to better write out their battles. Please tell me according to this list, based upon the Jedi fighting forms:

Form I: Shii-Cho, the basics and most like sword fighting.

Form II: Makashi, the refinement of Shii-Cho.

Form III: Soresu, designed to counter opponents wielding ranged weapons. The most defensive style.

Form IV: Ataru, a flowing and aggressive form that relies on agility and power.

Form V: Shien/Djen So, the aggressive and duel-oriented form of Soresu. Made by combining Makashi and Soresu.

Form VI: Niman, the dual-blade style. Made by combining all the previous forms, and thus being a very mixed style that relies on the user's creativity and improvisation. Used mostly by diplomats. My character Faenor is an utter master of this form.

Form VII: Juyo, the most aggressive style, relying on fury and malignant grace. The most vicious of all forms, originally derived from the Dark Side practitioners of Jar'Kai. Not very graceful, and seemingly uncoordinated, but it gets the job done. (Darrius: IV and VII master, usually uses IV though. He's so good because he's been fighting almost non stop since the First Age. Arahad: V specialist, occasional VII.)
