"Viewed as a starting point for further study in the Force, the Council of First Knowledge designated the study of tutaminis to be taught during the very first classes at Jedi academies."
They could also just work on telekinetic applications, maybe the art of movement. You know, practice their basics and make them more potent.
Holocrons. Or they could study up on the older Sith Lords just for kicks. Or they could work to improve their Tutaminis skills. After all, basic tutaminis is taught to everybody, but if you want to absorb or deflect blaster bolts or do something like that it takes a bit more skill, and it's something they could probably work on solo.
Or something like that. If you have any ideas, just let me know.
Yeah, sorry, but I don't know of any. I'm only in two classes currently.
However, Cassus and Jaron could always do a one-on-one training thread, different from a duel. Maybe work on some tutaminis skills or such as that, who knows. We might grab a couple other acolytes and do something like that. Or you could see if there are any threads going on/in the works that I haven't noticed. =P
You mentioned that you might like to NPC the Jedi Orders' agent for this mission; in case you're still up for it, here you are, ready to go. Though I don't know if Hannah is still taking part, I'll tell you once I learn.
Jack's not so much a "field" guy for the Cartel. He does when absolutely nessecary, but he's a numbers/business guy first and foremost. Is Liran into any debts? Trouble with any other characters?
Honestly? I suck at bios. Like... hardcore. Thats why all my bios have wicked templates. To distract people from their shitness. I'm honestly a terrible writer as far as lengthy prose or story telling is concerned. I'm a decent RPer because its short bursts and I don't have to fart-ass around and plan ahead (i've never been accused of being good at that).
