• Description: The Battle Guardians are known for an unusual combination of skill sets. They are force sensitives trained to use their abilities in the force, but also to combine it with the skills of soldiers and technology. This creates hyperaware, fast, and precognitive soldiers who would at first seem like nothing more then very skilled soldiers from a distance until their impeccable predictive aiming and unusual abilities manifest. Generally seen as mysterious by their opponents and targets, the Battle Guardians are almost always fairly friendly with their allies and tend to be a lot more relaxed then other soldiers.

Equipment:
-Utilize technology very efficiently
-Good armor, skills, and equipment helps them operate even if they aren’t actively using force powers.
Weaknesses:
-Meditation: Because Tasha was their teacher, Meditation was not treated as highly. While still taught, Battle Guardians do not experience as good meditation as either the Jedi or the Sith might. And as a result may find things like Prophecy, healing, or telepathy, to be very easy.
-Equipment: Although technology is a big aspect of their skills. Most Battle guardians do not possess extreme technology, many use the equipment given to them by the military thus meaning they may not always explore their skills to the fullest. This is because the Blackmoor Education and Skills school does not supply them weapons, so most either pay for them themselves or
-Unfinished: Though all very dangerous combatants, most Guardians don’t put immense skill in close range weapons except when working as a team. They can thus have a bit of trouble with others at close range if they’re forced to fight real masters alone.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
The Battle Guardians are members of the Blackmoor School for Force Sensitives on Alderaan who had taken up the art of Tasha’s own preference, Technology Guardians. Technically speaking, Battle Guardians are loyal to Alderaan and not the Republic. But due to Alderaan's allegiance to the Republic they are often treated as members of it anyway. They are very skilled combatants and team members who can assist considerable in a battle. Though generally not seen in great numbers. Most Battle Guardians work under Tasha's or Alderaan's military, but have been ordered for more dangerous missions by the Republic when need of excellent battle field combatants were needed.
Most of the members are Humans, however, there are some variety of species through them.
