New Forces (Xam)
DarkStar entered the training room, a large tome of ancient Sith Lore tucked under his arm. His apprentice Xam had requested to learn some of the more obsucure Force Power and DarkStar inteneded to teach him some.
He had already selected a few from the book, DarkStar himself did not know how to use the powers so he would teach from the book and observe, even without knowing how to perform the acts the ancient Sith still knew when they were being done wrong.

Xam had asked his master to learn him some more force powers so he knew DS should be in the training grounds, opening the doors he saw his master standing there with a book under his arm. Xam knew DS wasn't a great force user but had no problems with that.
He inclined his head in respect and did one step backwards.
"I am ready for the training master."

DarkStar laid the book down, he didn't need it for the first task, he would teach Xam how to comunicate through the Force. He looked at his apprentice and spoke through the Force to him.
Find my thought patterns, lock on to them and speak the words in your mind, I will hear them, this is the first test, all comunication will be done like this.

Xam was surprised from the voice in his head, he had never heard without his ears..
The first taks DS had given him was not really hard as DS and Xam were the only ones to be in the training grounds.
He concentrated and then began to speak in his mind..
Yes master, I will try
Xam didn't really know his DS heard him but was almost sure DS had heard him, he saw it in his eyes.

DarkStar heard quite clearly, he thought for a moment then replied through the Force.
My knowledge of Force powers is limited, what powers I do know reside in two main arenas of the Force, those that effect my own body, and those that effect the mind of others. Which of these do you wish to explore?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted by Xam Feldek on 09-16-2002 09:17 AM:
Xam thought for a moment, both options were very interesting but as he wanted to specialize in battle he chose the first option.
I want to learn the things that affect my own body.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DarkStar nodded slowly
Very well, to begin with, we will work on increasing the power in your muscles. Think of your muscles as a group of men, when you lift something, a pair of men do the work, then when you lift it again, another pair do the work, the art of increasing your muscle power is to get all the men to lift at once, look deep inside yourself, you will see what I mean.
DarkStar pointed to a rock, larger than a normal human would be able to lift.
You will lift that,
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted by Xam Feldek on 09-18-2002 06:44 AM:
Xam went towards the rock, it was huge.. How could he be able to lift such a boulder..
Are you sure.. ? Hmm, well I can try..
Xam concentrated all his muscle power to use it all in one time. He felt the strength and took the boulder from two sides. He lift it up, very slowly. Xam's veins were very big now and his eyes red form the blood that was flowing very quickly through it. His breath was accelerating and when he had lifted the boulder over his head he sent his master a message.
Do I have to stay long in this position? I don't think I will be able to hold it very long...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The boulder shattered into a thousand pieces as the ancient Sith Lord pulled it apart and not a moment too soon, Xam's untrained muscles collapsed under the imence strain.
Remember, using it all like that will give you increadible strength but only for a short time and will leave you aching for days, by varrying the "number of men" you use you change your strength and the drain on your muscle. Now, jumping, I know you have the basics, but I want you to scale that pile of pillars over there using only Force jump, this will test your co-ordination as well as your Force powers,
DarkStar motioned towards a large pile of collapsed pillars arranged in formation that would alow a Force user to jump from pillar to pillar and assend the mound.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Xam was breathing heavily.. His muscles were like rubber now. He had to wait a moment to come back in a normal situation and then he heard the voice of his master again in his mind.
Incredible strength.... short time.... now, jump.....
Xam had done jump exercices yet but this was much harder than the previous ones he did.. Those pillars were very high and it seemed they would crumble under the smallest weight that would arrive on it. He had to go very fast this time.
Xam gathered all his hate, his eyes were turning into flames and suddenly he jumped very quickly onto the first pillar, the second one was lower but on the left, very quickly he jumped and saw the next pillar, the highest one, he jumped and once that he was on the pillar he jumped for a pillar that was lower and to the right.
When he was jumping he had lost a bit speed and the place his foot was standing on crumbeled.
Xam fell with high speed, the ground under him was decorated by very sharp rocks, he had to jump again. Xam looked around him, very fast and found a hole in a pillar, he put his foot there and used it as stand to jump further.
Then he jumped further passing all the pillars without problems.
This all happened in a few seconds, Xam landed back on the firm ground and took one deep breath.
Done, I think this worked out well..

DarkStar nodded
"Again, but this time, you will have an added distraction, or rather, several,"
At a gesture from the Sith Lord the pillars began to move randomly in the air, also a sword appeared from seemingly no where and began to hover in the air near the pillars, waiting to strike at Xam.
"Do not destroy the sword,"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted by Xam Feldek on 09-25-2002 09:33 AM:
The pillars began to tremble, the dust from the breaking rocks falling down and finding its place on the cold ground which became gray. Xam looked at the sword comoing over to him at full speed, when it was 2 metres from him, he jumped and dodged it but the pillar he was going to land on was breaking in two peaces so he jumped on a falling helft and continued his way to the last pillar, each time dodging the killing blade exept for once, it came from his back and it made a cut in his arm.
The blood was dripping of his arm but he had to continue and to concentrate on his way. All the pillars behind him where he had stood broke off so he couldn't stop and when reaching the last pillar he made an extremly big jump and then a dubbel salto in the air to end on his feet on the ground but he saw the blade still chasing after him..
Only 10 metres, 9 , 8 , 7 , 6 ..
He then sent a message to his master.
Am I supposed to still dodge the sword?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted by Drako on 10-18-2002 02:01 PM:
No
The answer was followed by a blast of air that knocked Xam from the pillars. The sword dropped to the floor as DarkStar ignited his sabre and advanced on Xam, it was sabre time.
