To be honest, ive been watching many of you fight, and felt the sudden drop in health as I felt the fighting prowess of many of you. This has prompted me to think of the fighter that I feel will be most beneficial to my style.
Personally I was set on Cloud for months, but ive realized what I'm looking for in my style and instead I was hoping for an equally skilled yet different kind of fighter to bless my saber. I was very much hoping to have Jato as my master on the basis that I believe my form has the potential of power but lacks both finesse and structure. Seeing jatos calculated moves leads be to favor his teaching. In addition hes an exceptional fighter. I apologize to Cloud and note that he too is also a fantastic painter with his glowing brush but I simply wish to construct a different painting
Of course I realize that knights get first dibs on padawans and in this regard I would gladly accept Tricky as my master. Considering his experience and use of single.
However let it also be noted that I would prefer Jato ultimatley if he consents to taking me under his wing.

Good thing you didn't choose cloud. He needs alot more glue.

Indeed,the council prefers students to go for knights that way knights can move up the ranks,and also here:
http://www.knights-reborn.org/forum/vie ... php?t=9642
Jato stated here he wont really be active so yea...
But on a side note my suggestion
no matter what style you're master uses in combat,it is most likely you will develop you're own style after a while.
And also you can learn a lot from Trickster,he has been waiting for a while for a Padawan,but again...hes not the only knight without a padawan...*cough*Jawa*cough*

i'd be happy to work with you, Phil.
also, i'm patient, and i don't mind waiting if you'd like to go with Jato or Cloud. i'm a supporter of students wanting their masters as much as masters wanting their students.
ultimately, this will be the decision of our leaders. either way, i'm good.

Tricky needs a padawan much more than I Clank so it's fine.

I guess that knight trial was for nothing, still being treated

Word of warning though that my schedule has been completely flipped upside down since I came back due to a promotion at work, so right now I can really only be online late at night after 11pm CST. Some nights I won't even be on at all. Depends on when I get out of work and how tired I am. So if anyone out that can meet a schedule like that for master/apprentice, then I'm all yours.
Let me know!
i'll leave this up to you, Phil, since you had asked to be my padawan first, but my schedule probably more closely matches Lianna's.
i work a full time job, and even though i'm at home 3 out of the 5 days of the week, it usually keeps me occupied so that i can don't do much more than squat in the server. i don't get home/done working until anywhere from 5:30-8:30 PM, then i have to eat dinner, workout if i didn't do it in the early morning, and catch up on a dying social life, or just do other things i wanted to do but didn't have time (play other games, watch x-files, go food shopping, etc...). some nights i'm not on, some nights i am just so i can make Cloud and Jato cry a little bit.
again, i'd make more of an effort to get on at reasonable hours if i was training someone, but knowing that we have other knights with much more active, attending hours, you may wish to consider your options.

Hey Lianna, I made your post into it's own topic in case you get confused.

Oh well I can imagine Lianna's has been waiting awhile for a master and I think it would be easier for both of you to be padawan and master because of the schedules. Who knows when she will find the next master with a workable schedule and vices-verse with yourself. As much as id like a master right now, I think its probably the right thing to give Lianna the benefit of your teaching
I suppose ill look for someone else as a master :<

whoever ends up teaching you will be lucky to have you. your first demonstration as a student is to show generosity -- that's always a good thing.
and even if i'm not the one who is formally your master, i'd still be more than happy to duel and give you tips on how to beat the big guys and gals in our clan.

Jawa would be a great master to many pupils, but there is reason I wanted Tricky or Jato, I'm looking for people who have teached and been teached moves and honed their abilities over years of experience. Ive fought Jawa many times and he is a great duelist with a clean style. But I'm looking for some1 who's done this deal before and can show me all the edits and revisions of their style over the years, so that I can grasp what I'm looking for in my own style. So if that explanation will suffice the council,Id rather look at getting the man from wales, the anglo-Saxon jedi, and the writer of KRacking news. If that can be supported and if he agrees, I would like Aeddan to be my master.
Also a side note to tricky: Thanks dude not even being my master you've teached me that sometimes a uncomplimentary situation can turn out good for every1. Lianna will have a master and ill hopefully find what I'm looking for.

I protest at being called Anglo saxon!
However if there are no avaliable Jedi Knight's i would be more than happy to take you as my padawan.
Sorry i've been off for a few days by the way i've been taking advantage of the heat wave and dismantled the old barn!
Edit: I believe Jawa and Creed are both avaliable.

Lol I guess I suck with Welsh culture my bad xD.
But anyways this also applies to Creed because even though Creed is a solid duelist with calm approach and diversity Im looking for some1 with years under their belt so I can get training from a refined source, whether its little observations on different styles or tendencies when sabers clash, I want to learn these through people who fought with their personal style and formulated it into something they are comfortable with.
I know I sound picky but its just what I prefer, I very well believe Aeddan has the refinment and experience I'm looking for In a master. Therefore there isn't any knights for single available that have what I personally am looking for in my master.
<3 Jawa and Creed but I feel strong about this and if the council gives the 'ok', id prefer to be dubbed padawan by Aeddans saber.

Looks like your mind is set. a Padawan should get a master you want to learn from it's not like I or Creed are going to force someone to be our padawan just because we are Knights. of course like Phil said Knights get first chance at getting a new padawan. I'm not offended that you have not picked me. You choose who you want to and hopefully they will accept your offer. I wouldn't call it being picky you just don't want someone who has never taught before.
