Wait, it's your birthday?!?! I just got you the gift certificate to be nice... I mean, yea, happy birthday!
For your next task I want a full report on Form IV. What are its strengths? What are its weaknesses? What can you do to overcome those weaknesses? Atura is the fourth form of lightsaber combat. Due to its fast paced, quick, aggressive nature it is also know as the Way of the Hawk-Bat. The Hawk Bat is an elegant but deadly predator native to Coruscant. Another similarity between Atura and the Hawk-Bat is they have both surpassed the test of time, both have been around since the days of the Old Republic. Famous Jedi Masters who practiced Atura include Grand Master Yoda, Qui-Gon Jinn and Ki-Adi-Mundi. Offensive in nature Ataru incorporates speed, acrobatics and strength. Two common moves utilized by the combatant are the Hawk-Bat Swoop and the Saber Swarm. The Hawk-Bat Swoop is when the aggressor quickly strikes their opponent giving them no chance to react or retaliate. The Saber Swarm is a series of short strikes used to force the opponent into a defensive plight. This form of combat makes use of Force enhanced speed to increase the power of blows and to move around an opponent so they able to attack at many angles in a short amount of time. Jedi also call upon the Force to perform graceful acrobatics allowing them to attack opponents from new areas and to dodge or escape oncoming attacks from their opponent. Due to the amount of energy required to perform the appropriate moves Ataru is not recommended for use during long drawn out battles as the body will tire. Another downfall of this form is that it requires space to perform the acrobatics, making it difficult to use when fighting multiple opponents. Strong powerful blows performed in Ataru also prove ineffective in blocking blaster bolts. All of these weaknesses can be overcome by using the force to enhance the movements.
Grand Master Tasks, just ask any of the other Padawan/Master combinations, I have put them all through the same paces. Once he is done with them you will be allowed in to see them. Do not worry, I am sure that once he has completed them he will be more than ready to tackle the trials. Besides we have to finish with @Chewbacca89's trials first.
He and Swan do......and they make them sweat.....and we as Master are NOT allowed to help. Not happy to watch my Paddy squirm, but it's part of the system.
I'm ok, bit of a headache but three 13 year old boys on sugar will do that to a person..... Happy Birthday to our Jedi @Mitth_Fisto, have a wonderful day!
They were so loud they had my husband and daughter hiding in their rooms!! They are in bed now, its 12.44am and they are still talking! Gonna have to shut them up soon....
