Sword Play with Ian
- Thread starter Gèckö
- Start date
*Patsuta walks along the path adjacent to the open field. He notices Suzaku standing there, with a hand on his genitals. Patsuta quickly looks away in disgust and proceeds to walk along the path home bound.
Suzaku notices his friend Ian appearing, he starts to talk..... Well, when i was a child. My father was a kenjutsu specialist, and i always saught to master the art my father loved so much. After taking my father's life, the art of sword fighting has become way more important to me.
Out of rp sense, in the anime code geas. Suzaku is a very talented swordsmen, thatis one of the main reasons why i chose him as my main bio. To learn kenjutsu, would help me progress into eventually making him the amurai he was destined to be. I could benefit form kenjutsu in many ways, it would give me another use of my sword then other then show and i'd be able to use another tool in close range.

But you can use a sword in freeform too,its not the techniques that makes the swordsman,but by his skill in the basics.How can you learn to technqiues but your freeform and basic understanding is sloppy?But none the less we will begin by the basic principals of introduction by telling me in your own personal description,of what is Kenjutsu,try to elaborate beyond what most people would say.
What is kenjutsu you say... Kenjutsu is the fundemental principles and basics of weapon fighting. Specifically with a blade of some sorts. You learn how to hold your blade, then you learn how to use it. Mot people would say kenjutsu is sword fighting. But my understanding and goes past that. By watching my father practice and and hoan this ability, i developed an eye for the art in itself. Kenjutsu is nothing without an inner power behind it. Emotion, wheter it be passion hatred or desire. Emotion drives a swordsmen's natural ability to perform basic kenjutsu. I other words a basic sword slash tandng still, isn't the same as a slash with a powerful stance. Kenjutsu is art, the chaining of creative moves pieced together one by one is beautiful. Even if it results in injury or death. Kenjutsu when performed by a master, would give anyone a death they wouldn't regret. I wish to appease my father's death. I murdered him without fully understanding what i was doing with the sword. So unless i learn how to use this properly. I don't want to use it at all. Help me ian!

Bless you as one not to simply say "Sword Techniques"but ,its also a way of life,it also what governs the mechanics behind the act of sword play which is what we will be learning later on,but the universal meaning for Kenjutsu is Sword Technique.Now that we have a bit of information at hand which type of sword your accustom of using?Nodochi,Wakizahi,Long Swords or Katana?Though this is not part of training I wanna get to know my students preferences in the art of the sword .And while your at can you explain to the following terms and tell me the path od which they travel?
•Horizontal Slash
•Vertical Slash
•Thrust
•Diagonal Slash
•Horizontal Slash
•Vertical Slash
•Thrust
•Diagonal Slash
My prefrence of sword.... Well this sword before me is a katana that my father has had since he was a child. Same for his father, it's been passed throuh my family for generations. Hoizontal slash? A horizontal slash is basically a swipe of the sword from left to right uually used as the ending of a chain of strikes and slashes. It can be aimed upward or simply forward. A vertical slash is a swipe of the sword going up or down. It cna be used as an aerial attack, likewhen your'e coming out of the sky. You slash downward at your opponent. A thrust, is simply when you drive your sword into your opponent. You usually ste with your opposite foot. And propel your blade with your hands forward. Lastly a diagonal slash is a swipe coming diagonally. One of the final directional attacks.
Very good,So first we will be using these wooden swords called Bokken for these exercise as they are perfect for practice! Now pur your butter knife away,and give me a Full detailed post of your performing the slashes minimum is 7 sentences T_T
Alright Ian! Suzaku takes the woodensword. (the bokken) Suzaku observes it briefly before grasping it in his hands. As his friend steps back Suzaku begins the process of the task at hand. Suzaku inahales, then exhales soothingly. He then plants his left foot on the ground firmly. Suzaku then raises the bokken high above his head. The bokken looming over Suzkau's shoulders, Suzaku brings his elbows down swiftly and his forearms/wrists follow. Bringing the bokken down fast. (Vertical Slash) As the bokken comes down, Suzaku bends his right knee then angles his left leg slightly and plants again. He then tilts his wrist 90 degrees, so that his right palm face upwards now. Suzaku pulls his left hand away from his right while keeping hi grip in both hands. Slicing to the left. (Horizontal Slash) He then holds the bokken out in front of him, parralell to the ground. Suzaku then straigtens his legs then plants his right leg. He then lunges forward bending his left leg in front of him. Thrusting the sword into the air with all his force. (Thrust) SUzaku tilts the bokken vertically then jumps into the air and slashes downward on a 45 degree angle. (Diagonaly Slash) How was that Ian?
Perfect,well this is the cross road: Full Trainning or Techniques only.Im allow my students to pick since most just want the moves,so If you wish to get more info(including stance etc) pick Full and Techniques we will procede into them
Yush :3.Unlike your previous session ill be using the basic samurai terms for this lesson so well will start off taking a basic kendo posture by firstly stand straight towards me with
your shoulders parallel to your feet. Then place
your right foot slightly forwards whilst shuffling it a
few paces and not lifting and at the same time
shuffle your left foot backwards.
*shows you each step as instructed and awaits you

Ok so welcome to my new Kenjutsu Training system. It was based off of Lili-Chawn and Reborns style of training. In this system you wont perform the techniques but I however expect some questions. So this will be broken down into 3 catergories which are,
-Combo Based Kenjutsu/Simple Kenjutsu
-Chakra Enhanced Kenjutsu
-Character Bound Kenjutsu.
The First One We will start with is Combo Based Kenjutsu, these techniques are very different from Chakra Based, due to the lack of chakra required to perform them. The gimmick behind how they work is right in the description. Example would be (Ken Rendan no Jutsu) - Sword Barrage Technique, it says the user does a *sequence* of slashes, which is where your freeform will come in, as it can range from 4-9 or 7-20 slashes making it safe to say you have a sorta passive amount of slashes, couple with a speedy charater, you have a dangerous combo on her your hands. In the term simple kenjutsu are minor techniques that can be added to your combos usually as a finisher. Here is the list of these techniques -
Now using any of the techniques mentioned(besides the Cloud Kenjutsu) and perform 3 separate moves using some of the hints I mentioned, also any questions?

-Chakra Enhanced Kenjutsu
-Character Bound Kenjutsu.

I quickly unsheathe my katana and sprint at a clone that suddenly appeared. Without hesitation, i plant my right foot and swing clockwise with my katana extended outward. After a full rotation, i connect with the clone multiple times before stopping m momentum and chaining together a few vertical and diagonal sashes. After striking the clone down to it's knees, i lunge into the air and drive my katana downward into it's neck. Causing it to poof.
Questions:
-Can the techniques i posted above be used as a combination?
-cloud ken can only be taught by a cloud ninja right?

Question 1: Yes they could you just need to make there combination 
Question 2: Apparently Yes and No, I could teach them if I had a Cloud Bio(Like Omoi or Kirabi etc), people from the Kumo group can use them without training, well of course they need to master Kenjutsu first.
And I mean 3 moves >_< thats only 1 i need to more and be more descriptive
