Sith Training
There are three main points of focus in the training of a Sith. Studies of Lightsaber combat, the darkness of the Force, and the choosing of your path. Each step influences the other, and a Sith must think long and hard about his decisions, for there is usually no way back once one has followed the path of the dark side!

Lightsaber Combat
All Sith are trained in lightsaber combat, Consulars, Sentinels and Guardian's alike. Every Sith Adept will recieve very basic training in all of the lightsaber forms. Together with their Master, an Adept should seek a fighting style that fits him best, and pursue that style. When they take the trials to Knighthood, a Sith must show sufficient skills in one of the seven forms:
Form I: Shii-Cho "The Basic Form" -Good for Consulars-
Form II: Makashi "The Duelist Form" -Good for Sentinels-
Form III: Soresu "The Defensive Form" -Good for Sentinels-
Form IV: Ataru "The Agressive Form" -Good for Guardians-
Form V: Shien / Djem So "The Perseverance Form" -Good for Guardians-
Form VI: Niman "The Moderation Form" -Good for Consulars-
Form VII: Juyo / Vaapad "The Dark/Light Form" -Needs council approval-
Force Training
Through training in the Force, Sith can achieve a greater understanding of the Force, strength, rage, power, and corruption. Meditations are a daily routine for every Sith, and Consulars should strive to learn as much about the Force as possible.
