Meaning all you are is a Blade Dancer, Blade Master, Master Dancer, and their prerequisits.
yes formidible but VERY limited.
A Blade Dancer is a person who is completely in control of the flow of themselves thru their surroundings and can navigate their chosen weapon thru it like an electron thru a circut board with precise and fast movements, they have adapted as such in opposition to the evolution of ranged combat. They use holographic nanocircutry used on dance floors to startle rather than entertain and make them a dangerous foe indeed as their bursts of light or shadow can appear next to an opponant even 30 meters distant.
Startle Effect 1: Flash of white light in front of an opponant.
Startle Effect 2: Cascade of white and gold light in front of opponant.
Startle Effect 3: Shadow tendrils coiling around an opponant.
Startle Effect 4: Waterfall of Rainbow colors falling onopponant.
I would love it,because I am almost a bladedancer ![]()

More I think about this the more I like it.
And no Pikemen can find something else to combine with I'm not makeing up all the elite elite professions but I would definatly rule out PoleDancer...
And TKA's don't get an Elite Elite, they are too new a profession in the context of the SW Universe.
I really like the idea, the Pole dancer was just a joke (the MC Hammer made me laugh more than it should have Altair)
You put alot of thought in with exactly what things are given and what titles and such, very nice idea ![]()
Thanks Sinder...

It's not Uber for Uber's sake, if you care to look most of the bonuses it adds are availible thru useing the points from Dancer/Entertainer in TKM, except the dodge Bonuses which you can get nearly the same bonuses from Pistoleer if not better...
It's just an alternative spending of skill points.
And the State Dance of Blades is really nothing more than I can currently do as a Blademaster with a few bites of food. 10 AOE attacks for 200Ham, with just Breath of Heaven I can spam that and more... god forbid I get a musician buff. In Actuality with a few bites of food it would only cost me 200 Mind not even cost me any action or health currently.
The effect is just a modified Warcry1 which lasts half the time for half the cost going up to Equal to Warcry 1 at master for the same cost... it will just have a cool effect and a bonus chance to stick.
The Only bonuses that you don't get thru other uses of the left over skill points are Accuracy and COB bonuses.... and well that is what you get in return for sacrificing the ability to be anything but a Blade Dancer.
I could have and should include bonuses to one handed toughness to show a hightened awareness of when and where an attack will land thus avoiding more of the damage... maybe +10 over the whole tree.
The only thing it needs is a cool backstory... maybe a Selonian artform brought to and adapted into populatity by some famous Blademasters *cough* Roogah Heeveah *Cough* Raph *Cough* Sinderella after long study with a Selonian Contact female.
Though I'm thinking of retitleing the Master Level Title to Void Dancer, in honor of the Iga Scrolls of Iga Ryu Ninjitsu Philsosphy in where the Void is the element you are capable of reaching upon mastering the art, allowing you to be in perfect harmony with your surroundings as if you were not there... thus allowing the "supernatural" effects of Ninjutsu to work to their greatest posibility.
With each of the other four elements do represent the four elements of Iga Ryu Jujitsu/Ninjitsu.
wow, that would be really really great
but then if you were a Pikewoman/Dancer would you be a Pole Dancer?
