Laziana is a Jedi Academy Trainer at the Jedi Academy.


Origins

Hailing in from a small village near of Vienna in Austria, Laziana joined the Jedi Academy on October 8th 2006. After meeting several other members - both old and new - and attending some classes it was clear for him (yes, he is male, just plays a female character in game) that he had found a place where people are nice and are really worth to spend time with.


Padawanship, Knighthood & Co.

On February 28th 2007, Dash Starlight took Laziana under his wing as Padawan.

Exactly two month later, on April 28th 2007, Laziana was promoted into the rank of a Jedi Academy Knight after overcoming the trials.

It took Laziana some time to be comfortable with the additional duties and responsibilities. Finally Laziana selected Maher Senatu as his first Padawan on August 31st 2007.

On September 26th - almost five month after overcoming the JAK Trials, Laziana was promoted into the rank of a Jedi Academy Trainer.

Laziana used to teach a Basic Medium Stance class on Mondays and an Intermediate Map Movement class on Tuesdays.


Style

Laziana uses a single saber and follows the way of the Yellow stance. Laz does not practice any specific traditional saber style, but if you need a reference, then the closest hit would be a subform of Soresu (Form III).


Personality, Traits & Quotes

Laz is known as a kind and friendly person, always being respectful to each and everyone. Of course nobody is perfect - and with Laz it's no different. Cold-hearted moments and being a tad too strict or touchy when it comes to enforcing policies of servers, forums and the IRC channel does happen once in a while. Which never turns out to be a problem once the participating persons had a short talk over it - so it actually turns out fine anyway.


Laziana is known for coffee and booze addictions (especially beer). Sharing time with a drunken Laz on TeamSpeak is something people tend to have a fond memory of.

Jokes go around every now and then how a Jedi Academy Trainer should rather not be found lying passed out on the floor of one of the Academy's hallways - always winking at Laziana's direction if possible.


Some of Laziana's favorite quotes:

"In humility lies true greatness."

"Wonderful." (in both honest and sarcastic way)

"COFFEE!!!"


Other Activities

Laz organized and held a one-day-event Tag Team Tournament in November 2007. A sequel to this tournament format was held on April 24th, 2010 - once again being organized and run by Laz.

Additionally Laziana had a big role in organizing the Jedi Academy Prom 2008.

Also, Laziana frequently hosts shows on Jedi Academy Radio which are slowly getting more popularity as time goes by. Although there is no fixed shedule yet for regular shows, people are mostly happy to listen when the JA Radio is on air.


A New Dawn - SW:TOR

With Star Wars: The Old Republic released, Laziana is an active player in the EU guild set up by the Jedi Academy. Laz is in the position of Officer and tries to deliver the same fun and respectful environment as in the days of JK3.
