So, I read that Cal made up his Lightsaber form since "he never finished his training".... but they didn't say what Lightsaber Form(s) he was training in.


Even in the first encounter with the Second Sister, she mentions that "I recognize that stance" when Cal positions himself to battle.


Now, I am going to take what I know about the pre-Disney Star Wars Lightsaber forms and theorize the forms he mixes to create his unique form.


Form 1: Shii-Cho. This HAS to be one of the forms Cal used to create his form. Form 1 is taught to younglings before they become Padawans when they first make their Lightsaber. Form 1 are the basics of combat, and the building blocks used to make other forms.


Form 2: Masashi. This is POSSIBLY something Cal has dabbled with to add to his form. It requires firm footwork, and focuses on parries and thrusts over slashes; like modern fencing. While no master of the form, when in combat Fallen Order wants you to parry over simply blocking; especially when it comes to close combat. Cal is also seen using thrusts in his form. Thus, I theorize that he uses parts of Form 2 in his fighting style.


Form 3: Sores. This is NOT a form I believe Cal really added. While Soresu is good at deflecting blaster bolts, Cal can only do so using Parries. Later forms also can deflect blaster bolts. Also, Sores specializes in minimizing effort, and Cal's stamina bar drops quickly if you simply block, which Soresu specializes in.


Form 4: Atari. I firmly believe that thus HAS to be used in Cal's Lightsaber form. Atari focuses on acrobatic movement. While he doesn't do 5he crazy spins and leaps Master Yoda does, we DO see an Ataru user in a Star Wars movie that was also more moderate. Master Qui-Gon Jinn was an Ataru user. The developers obviously want you to use avrobatic dodges...why else would they color telegraph attacks you have to dodge?


Form 5: Shiem/Djem So. This HAS TO be a style Cal used to make his form. Form 5. Form 5 specializes in counters and heavy attacks, as well as deflecting blasters. He obviously is no master in this form, but he could use the basics of it in his style.


Form 6: Niman. Also a form I believe Cal uses to make his. In Legends (pre-Disney), it was stated that most Masters taught Niman after their padawan has learned Shii-Cho. Niman is basically a Mashup of the previous six forms. A jack of all trades, master of none. While a LARGE number of Jedi who used Niman died in the Battle of Geonosis, that doesn't mean records wouldn't exist in the Jedi temple. Also. In Legends, Niman also was known for heavily including Force usage. Fallen Order lets you use Force Slow, Force Push, and Force Pull during combat.


If not truly used, Cal's Lightsaber form unintentionally does what Form 6 does: use pieces of other forms to make a new one.


Form 7: Juyo/Vaapad. This is NOT one Cal uses. Form 7 is VERY aggressive. Also, Form 7 in Legends was all but banned in the Jedi Order, cause of how it can cause one to tap into the Dark Side. The ONLY confirmed Form 7 user in the Jedi Order was Master Mace Windu, who created the Vaapad varient. In Legends comics, all of Master Windu's attempts to teach it failed. All of those who tried to learn it besides Mace Windu fell into the Dark Side.



So there is my theory. Cal's Lightsaber form mixes Forms 1,2, 4, 5, and 6. Or it just mixes Forms 1,2,4, and 5 to unintentionally do what was done to make Form 6.


What do you all think?

So I beat the game and started new game plus. Continuing to search for items I missed. I went and upgraded my lightsaber on Ilum....and returned to Dathomir....and now, my game on Xbox One is glitched. It takes me to Jedi Training with my Master without the obstacles spawning or letting me go away.


I cannot report it, and trying to start ANOTHER new game plus makes it impossible to got to customization! HELP!

From birth, my journey has not been easy. Those with Autosm are not always well off. But things kept getting crazier and crazier. It all came crashing down in 2016, when PTSD from abuse I suffered at the hands of teachers. Friends I made left me cause of it. Things seemed better cause of one friend. Troy Groomes, who uses his birth name at Fanfiction.net and goes by Dragoflightleader#9577 on Discord. He gave me hope.


Only now, I find out, that said hope never existed. He gave me a goal to keep me focused on, yet that goal never appeared. Now, that I am questioning the validity of said goal, he avoids me.


Now that the only thing giving me hope is gone, I feel that I have nothing for me left. As such, I feel that I have nothing left to continue this accursed existence. As such, I am leaving all my works unfinished, and account active as long as the programming let's it. However, I will be distancing myself from everyone.


That way, when I do commit suicide, it hopefully will not be as painful to others.



And to you Troy. I poured my Hope's and dreams out to you, and you took advantage of me. As the coldness of death takes me, it will be your name I whisper in fury.






Goodbye

To those who loved my works, I am sorry. I cannot continue them without hope

Hey everybody. One of the Co-Founders here. I am letting people know that this Group WILL NOT be shutting down. However, I DO NOT have computer access during this COVID-19 Crisis.


The computer in my house is used most often by my mother to do work when not at her job...


And she works in a hospital. So. I have stopped using the computer for the time being to stay healthy.



I will try to find art and stories to add to the group. I encourage you to do the same or make same!


Stay safe!

So, I am still talking to Troy. Events of 2016 really gave me an emotional scarring of losing friends.


Steve and Troy are living in a truck for the COVID situation, and supposedly Troy's wife Madison Groomes is taking shelter in Duluth after heading way to talk about a project we were working on.


Only problem is, I myself have no way of getting to Duluth, let alone Eureka to check with the sources myself.


Steve is in a very bad move cause his storage in Oakdale, well, the Oakdale PD is harassing him whenever he tries to get supplies out of it and forcing him to leave or be jailed. The storage owner doesn't give two flying cares about this. Geez these Oakdale people are corrupt.


If only I had a way to contact Madison or go to Duluth myself, but Troy is in a bad mood and keeps tossing his phone away cause of the whole truck situation.


I am getting fed up. The last time I got so frustrated with him was on Christmas....and my mom started yelling at me cause events were making her stressed, and it brought out my old Depression mindset and......



I tried committing suicide on Christmas.


If anyone could check for a Madison Groomes in Duluth, I would be forever grateful.


I am at my with end
