Lightsaber forms

[variable]

Hello all!!

As we all know there are diffrent forms/styles of lightsaber combat, and I would like your input concerning which would be best for Nihilus. Nihilus is my new costume that has been approved and since I do not like doing things half-assed I would also like to learn some moves that would be appropriate for this character and who better to ask then the majority of saber weilders (you guys).

Basics.

Nihilus is left handed (like me ) and is known to only duel single handed.
His main force power is force drain.
He is also depicted using force lightning with only one hand, usualy his right hand.

At the moment the Makashi form seems the most logical to me but like I mentioned before you have done this longer then I have so I respect you input in this matter.

Thanks in advance
Eric

Wow.

I am really into lightsaber fighting, but I am not very fond of the styles.
Have just tried youtube there are some very nice tutorials that can give you the basics twirls and such

To be truthful this is probably the most awesome answear I could have gotten especially if you just go by the last line in the paragraph :-)

Assuming "fight style" means Lightsaber combat form, Nihilus has not been given a canonical Lightsaber form. He utilized an aggressive one-handed style as seen in Knights of the Old Republic II. However, it is unknown exactly what the name of this style is. Darth Nihilus never received formal Jedi or Sith training (as stated in the Saga Edition Old Republic Campaign), so he might have devised his own style simply because he had nothing else to go on.

Thanks for the tip anyway :-)

I think that you can ignore the numbered "forms" of lightsaber combat.
They are mostly a construction on paper. Leland Chee at Lucasfilm has said that the forms don't really correspond to what you see in the movies, anyway.

I've never been fond of dividing fighting styles into those numbered categories, so I might not be the best one to answer you, but isn't it likely his style cannot be put into any of the forms, if he never received proper training?
