Is it possible to recommit training to another?

[Darth Vaildra]

So after talking with a friend and reevaluating my character I decided he needed to lose some powers and seem less anime like and more Star wars. I know keeping track of force powers is no more, but I still do so lets go on that. I have put lots and lots of time into mastering Fire Shaping, but it seems too anime and avatar like. So could I in theory turn it into Lightning training instead and such like that?


Your thoughts?

I honestly don't place so much emphasis on training threads. Swap it out, if you will. Every Sith Lord and their mother shoots lightning anyway, so why not you.

I don't see why not. Although I will say this though the whole Fire Shaping thing was not really something that bothered me. Like [member="Dune Rhur"] said Lightening is something pretty much every Sith knows.

To piggyback on Vengeance, fire shaping is more unique. Maybe find others ways to reshape your character. Find a new dp that inspires you and work from there, maybe.

It isn't what you have, its how you use it.

I completely agree with you guys in that it is unique and not such a big deal. It is how I use it that I believe creates the problem. I really let writing control how the character grows and functions and due to his life he exerts a lot of power because of his flaw of being rash. Mastering fire means he looks like a master fire bender and most seem ok with this ability, but I run into it enough it made me question him. I think it is time to work away from being rash if he is going to lead the Empire. Lightning just seems closest to it.

While training threads aren't everything I believe if you invest the work you should proudly wear it. My character barely does anything but train and fight so I take pride in the threads he has worked on and thus this thread is born.

None of my Sith character have ever used lightning *shakes fist indignantly*

As for the OP so as not to be a great thread-wrecker. Your character is your own. Don't go crazy with it, and no one will really mind. As mentioned, Lightning isn't some super rare talent on Chaos (something I'd like to dispute the validity of, but will not)

Theoretically. Yes. As 1: nobody cares, and 2: Bios do not require review.

...Well? I mean, I didn't care until you asked about it. But seeing as you did... No. That's super cheap, makes no sense, and has no genre similar or equivalent. Pfft. Nobody swaps powers. That's ridiculous. ...Well. Or at least an excellent plot idea for a dev thread. Could go either way.

Meh. Just do it. And while you're at it swap in Force Wormhole. See if anybody even notices. Cheers!

I have always loved your sassiness

If you fight in such a way that other writers can respect you, it doesn't matter whether you use lightning or fire or sudden blooms of flowers. Fire can be Star Wars just fine.
