The Dark Academy on Korriban

Remmington heads out to the training grounds first thing in the morning to continue to hone and improve his saber skills. Like before he is using a training saber.

Jaina is watching some novices run quietly.

"Good morning Sith Von. You are looking well today." Remmington greets Jaina with a polite bow.

“My lord or Jaina is fine,” she says.

“You look like you want to run the perimeter, get a warm up.”

"As you with Jaina." Remmington responds with a light grin. He sets off into a run. Tapping into the Force he completes the run without being as winded as last time.

"Warm up completed. I am ready for my lesson whenever you are willing to give it."

Going for another run. Athletics/Brawn. Force Enhance just cause. 2eA+1eP+1eF+2eD = 1 Dark Side

Dark Side -> 1 success

“Get a training saber,” she says.

Remmington nods and goes to do as she instructed. He never takes his eyes off her for a moment. He picks up a training saber and returns. "Let's see if I have improved." He readies his stance.

“Attack,” she says.

OOC: Make an attack roll she has Adversary 2 and Melee Defense 1 spending a Destiny to upgrade the difficulty.

Remmington dashes forward and uses a single hand style against Jaina. With her speed and skill it will be difficult to strike her by relying on 2 hands. He feints and then does a spinning slash horizontally that manage to find a gap in her defense.


Sparring with Jaina. 2eA+1eP+2eC+1eD+2eS = 2 successes


To PF

Jaina spins her saber and parries the strike with ease as the light blades reverberate against each other. Every strike is parried as she moves with grace, anticipating his movements before he realizes she is just waiting for the right moment…

She grabs his arm and springs into the air kicking him in the face and then he is unarmed… and she has both sabers now and still in mid air she strikes with both in a wide arc and lands wielding both.

OOC: 3 strain to Parry reduces damage by 6, leaves behind 2 strain and soaked. Jaina uses advantage to regain 1 Strain. 1 Triumph to Disarm, second Triumph to proc second weapon she does 9 strain with each weapon, 5 strain after soak for each.

Jaina Lightsaber vs. Remmington: 5eP+1eA+1eB+2eD 3 successes, 1 advantage, 2 Triumph

Remmington wipes the dirt off his face. "Darn. I thought I had you with that one."

“You are dead,” she says.

"Seems that way." Remmington nods in agreement. "Anything that you can recommend so I don't die?"

“Get better.”

She puts the training sabers on the table and adds, “It’s not the weapon that makes you a fighter, you need to trust the Force, use your instincts. You have the Form, now you need to make it your own.”

“Basically, get good.”

Remmington nods. "I see. I should focus on my Force training after this."

He smiles her a bit coyishly. "Though I think I can train a lot harder if I had some motivation."

/ Should I do a Charm or something? /

Jaina nods and says, “Agreed. Twenty laps to build motivation.”

OOC: Smiling coyishly won't get her to like you any better if you have observed her character. If you are trying to get something sure, go for it.

I should have seen that coming. Remmington chuckles. "Of course I can do that. Though I was thinking something more like a kiss or a date. You catch more flies with honey then vinegar as they say."

Trying to charm Jaina. Charm/Presence. Average roll? 1eA+1eP+2eD = 3 success, 4 threat

“I don’t catch flies,” she says as he starts to run.

"Of course not." Remmington dryly remarks before he sets off again on more laps.

When he finishes Jaina says, “Spend more time training and less time worrying about public displays of affection.”

Tapping into the Force Remminton completes the laps in record time and does not even appear winded.

"Understood. Though this can also be considered training. Like does Jaina know any good places on Yavin?" He replies with a smile.

He asks in hopes of a date? Information? Well either way works for him.

Doing another run. Athletics/Brawn. Force Enhance to impress. 2eA+1eP+1eF+2eD = 1 success, 1 advantage, 1 Dark Side

“I have never been to Yavin IV, I would check the library,” she says.

"That so? I will certainly do that." Remmington nods and considers. "Any ideas why the Academy is taking us all the way over there?"

“To complete your training,” she says.

“I guess the goal is survival.”

"So jungle survival is it. Maybe I should stock up on some rations or something." Remmington ponders.
