(Outdated) Wilderness Survival

Post by Delmi N'jork »

Wilderness Survival

In this class you will be learning the basics of survival in the “wild”. These skills can be used if you find yourself in a remote planet or area and you might need to survive for some time without the regular accommodations we all have come accustomed to. These skills are ones I learned on Nelvaan before my time with the Jedi Order and I trust you will find them useful.

Throughout the course students will be encouraged to mesh together as a team through an abundance of activities and their hands on "examinations", which would take the form of arranged hiking or camping trips in what I would hope to be a variety of locations. Also through the course I hope to instill in students a healthy respect for beings who live a nomadic life and those that prefer the stars as the only roof above their head.

The list of the skills that will be taught include, but are not limited to:
  • Basics of Tracking and Land Navigation (Maps, compass, landmarks, stars, orbitals).
  • Basics of Survival First Aid (when a Jedi Healer or other “official” materials, such as bacta tanks and patches, are unavailable- with Master Tasia as a possible guest speaker).
  • Identifying naturally occurring food or water sources and safely making them consumable.
  • Camping and finding suitable shelter from elements.
  • Proper attire and equipment for different terrain types and climate.
  • Avoidance of/or defense against predatory animals.
  • How to beneficially interact with tribal or nomadic societies.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns regarding the proposed curriculum.

Note: You must have your Master's permission before joining the class on any sort of trip.

First class will be held on 296.01 at 15:00. I look forward to see you there.

(( Classes will be held on Tuesdays at 15:00. Keep a eye on this thread for any updates and/or needed files. ))
