Level Six: Becoming a Master

Training past Level Six is a bit different from the training of the ranks before.  No longer is there a master constantly with the Force User to oversee his continuing training and education.  The Force User is now considered independent.  Yet the Force User must continue training and learning.  What better way to learn then to teach?

To advance from level six a Force User must take upon himself the task of training another in the ways of the Force.  Through training another comes the understanding and wisdom needed to bring ones self closer to the Force and thus advance to the next phase of his journey.

Taking a padawan is required by this simulation to move from Level Six to Level Seven. Yet there are still the requirements of before.  A certain Force Meter level is required and there is a requirement of minimum time between one level and the other.  Please refer to the appropriate on the Training rules and the Ranking Chart for this information.

Conditions of Elevation:

1. The Force Meter must be sufficiently high or low to achieve the next rank.
2. The Force User must train a padawan to Level Six successfully.
3. The Force User must have completed his own specified training period.

Level Seven & Choosing a New Class

At level seven the Force User has sowed the rewards of his hard work.  The User is now a master of his chosen class, but he feels  yet incomplete.  There is so much more out there.  To continue from here, the Force User must chose a new path in his life.  There are but two choices for the future: to choose a sub class to his original class or to begin to branch into the middle road.

As the Level Seven user begins to adopt his new skills he also realizes he must yet again pass on his knowledge and continue learning from experience in teaching.  The Force User must once more take upon himself to train a new padawan.  Only then can he reach the rank of Master that awaits him at Level Eight.

Conditions of Elevation:

1. The Force meter must be sufficiently high or low to achieve the next rank.
2. The Force User must train a padawan to Level Six successfully.
3. The Force User must have completed his own specified training period.
4. A confrontation with the Dark Side or the Light Side of the Force.

Level Eight: Mastering a Life

The level eight Force User is strong and wise beyond his years.  A formidable warrior, a noble teacher, and a strong servant of the Force, or, as for the Sith, a master of the Force.  The Level eight master has but one more step on his journey to achieving the ultimate goal of any force user, understanding the Force and its ways.  The harmony of its existence or the power of its energy.

Conditions of Elevation:

1. The Force meter of the Force User must be sufficiently high or low to achieve the next rank.

2. The Force User must have completed his own specified training period.

3. A confrontation with the Dark Side or the Light Side of the Force.

Level Nine: Becoming One With the Force

The ultimate level for a Force wielding character is the Council Master or, for the Sith, the Dark Lord of the Sith is the final step in the progression of Force Users.  This level is the pinnacle of the Force User's secondary class, he will be a master in it and in the chosen ways of the Force.  A final brush with the Dark Side is required for the Light, and like wise a brush with the Light Side is required for the Dark.

Training a Padawan

Due to the availability of multiple student training by a master the requirements listed above are given the following note.  Only one student of a multistudent group counts towards the elevation of the Master to the next rank.  If the two students are separated by three or more levels in training, then the second student may count towards the masters next elevation. If the students are separated by two levels, then the student counts as half.  To complete the whole the master must then train another to Level 3, at which point he receives his promotion.  If the second student is one level or less behind the other, then he does not count towards the continued elevation of his master.

Purposely tampering with training of students to achieve a two-for-one deal is strictly forbidden and will result in a reduction in level of the Master.
