Style: Ala Mhigan Weapon Master
Offense/Defense/Versatile: Versatility and Adaptabilty
Summary: Gharen is self-taught in almost everything he knows. Much of his fighting style having evolved simply by watching others initially, then putting this into practice himself, while it may not always appear to be so, he is always watching and listening, attempting to commit to memory footwork, movements, and the patterns that appear in the various fighting styles that he sees.
Strengths: Believing that the each known martial style of combat form a wheel, and every style is but a single spoke in that wheel, obtaining even a fundamental understanding of these various methods of combat offer insight and adaptability to whatever weapon focus is used and or faced. The weapon master is able given a wider range of options in order to think outside of the box in the heat of battle and enhancing overall survivability potential for victory by using unconventional tactics in order to keep opponents guessing, and off balance.
Weaknesses: The path of becoming a weapon master runs the danger being a Jack of all trades and master of none, leaving oneself open to defeat at the hands of a more specialized opponent. Garnering the fundamentals, then specific specialization, builds a stronger foundation that can be built upon as time goes by.
Extra: Gharen's combat style is generally evolving and unconventional without dipping into dishonorable tactics. He will often allow an opponent to become lulled into a sense of security believing they know what they are up against by utilizing a small toolbox of attacks only to in the middle of a fight mix Ala Mhigan Martial Arts or other applicable styles and bring wider ranged combat skills to bear in order to overwhelm an opponent.
