How much colder can it get?

[Oregano]

Hoth was definitely cold. If one had never heard of the planet or been to it they'd quickly find out due to one, it's literally an ice planet, and two, it's an ICE PLANET. Oregano layered up when he was called to Hoth due to knowing that it wouldn't be pleasant if he didn't. Oregano added to his standard attire of a black shirt and pants with a sleeveless robe overtop, it wasn't much that he added but it would have to do. He added another black robe however this one sleeved, it was a bit tattered on the edges of the sleeved, hood, and the bottom due to exposure to.. dangerous elements. Along with the robe Oregano wore a pair of gloves and a scarf around his neck which he would occasionally pull up to cover his mouth and nose. With him he merely had his standard lightsaber that he was borrowing from the Order of Ren and a pair of black Gauntlets made for the Ren.

'Did it really have to be Hoth?' Oregano sighed and figured it was for a good cause. The boy had arrived using a borrowed TIE fighter as he didn't have a starship of his own to travel in at his leisure. From the information he had there would be two people with him today, one of them another disciple. A two versus one practice drill against somebody stronger than you was rather useful in building teamwork and learning to work together. Teaming up against somebody stronger was useful because that made it possible to take down stronger opponents, however that is if done properly. There are cases where the stronger opponent beats both of them.

Sure the boy was here to train but he also needed to start gathering pieces for his own lightsaber. Hoth had plenty of crystals on the planet just waiting to be found. Oregano figured that after the training session he should head out and search for one, maybe even multiple crystals. Can't ever have enough crystals right?

The beauty of Hoth nearly took her breath away when she landed on the planet for the second time in her short life. The sloping mountains covered in snow with a layer of thick ice underneath promised an inhospitable wasteland, but the Disciple would be able to use the sheer distraction of the elements to make peace within her turbulent mind.

Three Disciples had been sent by the Overlords for training. Hoth’s savage landscape made even a short practice exercise rather insufferable.

She landed the new TIE Silencer on the rendezvous landing pad, noticing a standard TIE already sat there, a thin dusting of white flakes covering the top of its hull. Varas wore a padded variation of the Ren armor with a thicker fabric for warmth and a fur-lined hood over her mask. But the layers of garments were bulker and more cumbersome than she was used to so instead of gracefully climbing out of the Silencer hatch, she kind of stumbled out and fell on her back in the snow.

Great first impression.

She took one of the Nightstrike Fighters and made her way to Hoth, She landed in one of the more open areas seeing a already landed Tie Silencer and a standard Tie fighter already landed the others have arrived already making her the last to arrive on this cold planet she didn't mind it as much so she simply just wore the Armor of Ren except winterized to better insulate from the cold without inhibiting her mobility. As the ramp lowered she unhooked her Pike from the holster on the side before walking out into the cold, She looked over to see [member="Varas Kyrel"] on her back in the snow for some reason that she didn't want to question if it was by accident or on purpose that she was how she saw her, She simply walked over to her and offered her hand to help her up. She didn't say anything like always she was quiet unless spoken too that was a habit that had been burned into her for years and not likely to be dissipated.

Oregano hugged his wool robe clothed to his body and nuzzled his face into his scarf as he waited for the others. Just a few moments later however another ship came into sight before landing gracefully, a TIE Silencer. Oregano shifted his gaze to the one who exited the TIE as yet another ship landed. However he was more interested in the lovely performance of the graceful fall the masked one displayed for him, which ended up getting a small chuckle out of him. However the pale looking one seemed to go and offer her a hand up. With that out of the way it would be proper to introduce himself so he strided forward towards the pair, taking slow heavy steps as he knew one wrong step and he could find himself on the ground.

"Oregano Evancrow.. I assume you're both here on this lovely paradise for a bit of training, yes?" Oregano even spared them a small smile to go with his obvious sarcasm. "Not trying to ruin the moment or anything but I'd rather get started as soon as possible before I freeze, may as well get the blood flowing with a bit of a workout- of course if that's alright with the both of you?" Green he's shifted left and right, focusing on the two of them one at a time for short intervals.

It sure was cold though, which was one of the factors Oregano was so excited to get started. Moving around would surely warm him up plus it'd give him something to do than watch his icy breath fade as away or watch a masked Ren embarrass them self. If they both agreed to getting to the point then Oregano would slide his arms out of the sleeves of the larger robe he was wearing and let it drop to the ground to reveal the light saber clipped to his bet upon the left side of his body. This was the only weapon he had on him and by first look it seemed rather plain and well, basic. That was a correct assumption, as well as the Armor of Ren gauntlets he was wearing that were insulated for the occasion. The only additions to his outfit were the black wool gloves and scarf.

As Varas lay there for a moment with the wind knocked out of her, she noticed a young Disciple approaching her with starkly platinum hair. A hand was extended and Varas took it, impressed by her strength, despite her slim and petite form.

“Thank you,” she said as at times she retained some of the exquisite manners of her mother and the less churlish behavior of her father.

But would this be the last charitable action either of them would enact towards each other?

The brunette clone shivered, cold biting right through her gloves to chill her fingers and any of the exposed areas of her face were subjected to such cold, she worried of frostbite. She raised her head towards Oregano and said in a confidently arrogant voice: “You’re right. I didn’t come here for a light jog through the tundra. The point of this training is to disarm your opponent using any means necessary and do so in the most uncomfortable elements possible.”

Snap-hiss. Varas’s neon-red saber came to life in her hand. She already had some tricks up her sleeve, but stood in the snow, knowing that the day’s events were already escalating quickly.

She simply nodded as [member="Varas Kyrel"] accepted her help she didn't expect a thank you but she accepted it non the less and looked over to see another [member="Oregano"] was his name....such a strange name but she was not here to judge name choices she was here to train, She sheded her coat only having her Armor of Ren as she unsheathed her short blades and listened as Varas explained what the training was to entail today it was good training to have learn to fight however possible no matter the environment was the best training for people like her and even some of the veteran fighters still try there hands at this to keep honed in its practice on the field. She hoped to explore abit too after training for a saber crystal for a new project she has in mind but for now she simply stood there eyes on both of them ready to defend from attack.

 

[Oregano]

'Well.. Ataru isn't optimal here as I'd likely lose my footing rather often as it is, with movements like that.. yeah, Djem So it is.' Oregano shifted his gaze between the two others as he watched them draw their weapons, the masked one activating their lightsaber while the other one drew a pair of swords, it could be assumed they could repel lightsabers so he didn't underestimate her choice of weaponry. Oregano shrugged the black robe off his body as it fluttered towards the ground, this allowed the insulated guantlets he wore to become visible before he uncoupled his lightsaber from his belt. Snap-hiss. With a powerful thrust down to his side from his arm, from the lightsaber erupted a crimson blade of energy.

As the boy shifted his gaze between the two he couldn't sit still, Oregano acted quickly and swiped his left hand towards [member="Betiliena Sudrenus"] which normally wouldn't mean much, however with the force an extension of himself Oregano targets the snow just in front of her and aimed to toss it up into her face to obscure her vision for a moment. Oregano would use this moment to grip his lightsaber with two hands and raise it above his head, however angled downwards while taking careful steps towards [member="Varas Kyrel"] before attempting to cleave the blade downwards upon her head with a powerful swing. Oregano expected the masked being to block the strike, and if she did he would then make an attempt at kicking her in her midsection to push her away as no doubt by this time the silver haired girl would have made her way over towards them.

She glanced at the platinum haired Ren and then back at Oregano, smirking over his comment about Ataru being the less optimal form on the ice. He wasn’t wrong, but Djem So would make a nice opposing form for Makashi.

Due to the cold and absent emotions of her mother and father, the pair of them a mixture of strict Imperial minds, Varas often saw sentient beings as merely individuals to bow down to or to strike from her path. Whether she could evolve into more of an introspect woman who did not view people as enemies or objects remained to be seen. But each day as she trained, more bricks were added to the wall inside of her and her opportunity to be more than a honed weapon for the Ren dwindled. In the meantime, she cleared her mind from anything else but the will to fight.

As Oregano swiftly moved to toss snow into Betiliena’s face, Varas sprung like the recoil of a gun and block she did. The now-Knight of Ren attempted to force Oregano’s blade down and away and if successful, she would follow up with an opposing backhand slash towards his midsection.

As he blew snow into the Ren with silver hair, the other one came forward however he already initiated his attack. He cleaved his blade down powerfully and she blocked it as he anticipated. As she was attempting to force his blade down and to the side he already began to act and raised his right leg and attempted to ram his heel into her stomach to push her away from him.

Oregano made a quick check and noticed the other one wasnt charging him to he instantly shifted his gaze back towards the masked Ren and stepped in towards her once more as this time he took a different approach and swiped his lightsaber down at her ankles in an attempt to restrict her movements. He also planned ahead some figuring the only thing she could do was jump, back up, or parry his strike. "Come now, you can do better than this right?"

Varas caught Oregano’s knee with her abdomen and it knocked her back, her right foot slipping on the ice. Her right palm caught the fall, the crimson saber cutting through the ice under her, causing a satisfying sinking feeling of her body into the snow as though she was slicing through a fluffy white cake. As her opponent went low, the Knight scissored her legs to avoid his blade and in a tight roll she spun away from him laterally, pulling herself up and back into a defensive stance.

On the horizon were a herd of wild tauntans. Maybe once the pair became tired of fighting, they could try to tame a couple to ride, thought Varas.

“Probably,” she answered, holding her saber up again, ready for another attack.

“Why are you here on Hoth, fighting me when you should be… I don’t know, flying to Coruscant and chasing girls.” The question seemed a tad bit incongruous with the fact that it was spoken by a woman with a mask on, one crafted to be both terrifying and obfuscating.

He was young and according to holomovies that’s what young men did, right?

[Oregano]

Oregano felt satisfaction in the success of his kick, sending her back. It was actually a bit more effective than he thought it would be due to the ice. Normally with how aggressive he was in combat he would have charged in during her moment of weakness, however he took slow steps closer to her due to him feeling his feet sliding out from under him. If he charged in recklessly he'd more than likely find himself flat on his ass in a rather embarrassing way. He continued to step closer to her as he stepped on a spot covered more heavily by snow which allowed him to easier gain his footing.

Since this was just training though he stopped when he heard her speak. Traveling to coruscant chasing girls? That never struck his mind as something he would do. He had never even been to coruscant before either. Was there something about it that guys were supposed to chase girls there? "Well.. I've been raised within the First Order all my life, chasing girls hasn't necessarily crossed my mind as something to do in my leisure. Besides, I'd much rather be here on Hoth with you, I prefer training over chasing girls on Coruscant. However perhaps I could be killing two birds with one stone? Chasing girls on Hoth can't be so bad.. well.. except for the fact I'm freezing my ass off." As he spoke he could see his own breath vapor up in front of his face, his fingers were beginning to go numb from the cold. "And what about you? Shouldn't you be on Coruscant wooing boys?"
