| In a Galaxy far, far away, where Lightsabers and Blasters take headline, good old fashion hand to hand fighting is still prominent. Here is a look at the selectable Martial Arts forms members of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood may select from when building their Character Sheet.

| == How To Use This Guide ==
| | '''Voidbreaker''' is a [[Battle Team]] within [[House Qel-Droma]]. One of [[Clan Arcona|Clan Arcona’s]] most recently organized Battle Teams, Voidbreaker was created to serve primarily as a diplomatic and special operations task force for the Clan. Voidbreaker is currently based out of the Consular-class cruiser of the same name, the ''[[Voidbreaker (Consular-Class Cruiser)|Voidbreaker]]'', and led by {{VBBTL}} |

| As with any large subject, it is impossible to express the full detail and nuance of Hand to Hand combat in just a few pages worth of writing. This guide should be a springboard for those looking to learn more about which Martial Arts form they are going to pursue while also acting as a quick reference for the seasoned veteran. This guide is not meant to be a crutch or restrictive to how you write your character. The descriptions listed below are by no means complete and should be treated not as an inflexible gospel, but as a first-order approximation for how to describe how practitioners of the form typically act, and how Graders could use these for interpreting material.
| | == Description == |
|
| |
|
| == Martial Art Forms ==
| | Battle Team Voidbreaker is a special diplomatic unit under the control of House Qel Droma and used to handle sensitive diplomatic missions for Clan Arcona. To this end, it is staffed with skilled diplomats, negotiators, and manipulators to make sure that Arcona’s interests are protected. By deploying Battle Team Voidbreaker, Arcona has often avoided conflict entirely while still accomplishing their strategic goals. |
|
| |
|
| Members of the Brotherhood are able to choose from the following Martial Art Forms when creating their characters:
| | Unofficially, Voidbreaker is also a highly elite special forces group, tasked with Arcona’s most secretive covert operations. Alongside the more public negotiators, Voidbreaker is also made up of a hodge-podge spies, mercenaries, and criminals who handle these missions. The two often work in concert, using covert operations to help official negotiations or otherwise turn them in Arcona’s favor. |

| The following is a breakdown of how your respective Skill points in your character Primary or Secondary form can be visualized when writing martial combat. For more information, see the [[Skills]] page of the [[Character Creation Guide]]. | | The ''Voidbreaker'' is both the Battle Team’s main base of operations and primary form of transport. A heavily modified Consular-class Cruiser, the ship is capable of transporting all of the personnel and equipment necessary for the team’s purposes. The Battle Team leader of Voidbreaker is also, simultaneously, the ranking officer in charge of the ship. |

| |
| |blurb=Whiptree is arguably one of the most common martial arts in the Galaxy due to its ubiquitousness and its ease with which new students can find classes and pick up the basics. The form's pure focus is on grappling, making it the popular poster child for self-defense techniques that could be used in everyday situations. Today, it is practiced by many police departments, militaries, and civilian’s throughout the galaxy.
| |
| <br><br>
| |
| Whiptree is focused on using an opponent's momentum against them and employing leverage, positioning, and redirection to minimize employing direct impact against direct force.
| |
| |resembles=Judo, Jiu-Jitsu
| |
| |origin=
| |
| |stancedesc=Whiptree's basic stance favors balance and the ability to quickly enter an opponent's guard for pivots and throws. Feet are set about a shoulder's width apart, arms extended at chest level with bent elbows in order to establish a grip on the opponent while also protecting the face from attacks. Toes are generally pointing outwards at 45 degree angles for stability. The knees and hips are relaxed and bent, with one foot slightly further forward to maintain balance.
| |
| <br><br>
| |
| Whiptree's offensive arsenal consists of a wide series of throws in order to get the opponent to the ground. Using the arms and legs as pivot points, a practitioner can grapple an opponent to the floor with the shoulders and hips. Once an opponent is down, chokes, arm locks and pins become the major points of attacks with Whiptree. Once engaged, the form teaches force submission and can even lead to broken limbs from applying the right torque to different joints. There are also techniques taught for attacking the incoming limb and targeting the joints on the wrist for disarming.

| |
| * Flexing
| |
| * Standup
| |
| |blurb=Broken Gate is one of the most widespread and common standing combat forms in the Galaxy. Taught on hundreds of planets from the Core Worlds to the far reaches of the Outer Rim, the simple and efficient form is popular with those looking for a well rounded form rooted in physical fitness training.
| |
| <br><br>
| |
| Conditioning is key to Broken Gate, with adherents training rigorously to harden their bodies against strikes. As a stand-up fighting style, it employs little to no ground-fighting techniques but is entirely focused on upright combat. Using powerful blocks, kicks and strikes in conjunction with simple body control, it is a balanced martial art that can take hits but dish them out just as readily.
| |
| |resembles=Karate, Shotokan
| |
| |origin=
| |
| |stancedesc=A Broken Gate stance places the practitioner's hands out in front of their chest, front fist angled towards the opponent's face while the back hand lowers to protect the stomach. Elbows tuck in tight to the ribs as the hips twist off at an angle to present a smaller target. The lead foot is the foot opposite the main hand, with the other foot a shoulder width apart and then behind the other. Both knees are bent and weight is kept off the heels to allow for faster movement. From this stance, a practitioner can transition between deep and wide stances while moving in order to maintain balance while putting them in a position to lunging into an attack.
| |
| <br><br>
| |
| Practitioners will take advantage of the torque and power behind roundhouse kicks, uppercuts, and other chambered strikes. Counters are rudimentary but effective with the intent to safely absorb an incoming attack rather than to try and deflect it. Hand techniques vary from open handed chops and grabs to closed hand hammer fists and knuckle-jabs while utilizing the meatier parts of the wrists and arms to absorb impact. While it lacks many ground combat techniques, this form has more than a few a techniques designed around escaping quickly from grapples or any other maneuver that would take them off their feet and down to the ground.

Formalised on a basic level and taught in gyms all across the Galaxy, it is a mix of toughness, speed and strength that has given it a widespread popularity.

| |
| <br><br>
| |
| Corellian Kickboxing employs the eight points of contact - two fists, two elbows, two knees and two feet. Punches are typically straight and chained in rapid succession by using the rotation of the hips and the shoulders. Straight kicks and round kicks are employed in equal measure, as well as grabbing an opponent with one hand to deliver elbow strikes or both hands to clutch and then deliver strikes from the knee. Defensive techniques include basic arm deflections and movements away from the incoming attack, or simply absorbing the hit if it is not aimed at a vital area in order to counter with a hit of their own.
