Maybe not in the rules. But I've read of ways of tweaking your lightsaber to only produce a small amount of energy, similar to stun sticks. It still hurts like hell, but at least it won't kill aynone.
Here are Milius' students.
Student Roster
Thorias Phildune (Human Male, Age 15)- Thorias has always been a troubled teenager with a
lot on his mind. Although he was taken from his family to join the order at the customary
young age, he has had many problems adjusting to his surroundings, and is showing signs of
rebellion against authority. Milius serves as a calming influence, though it seems to have
galvanized Thorias against other adults whom treat him with far less patience. Thorias'
behavior mirrors a similar dissatisfaction in Milius' psyche over his seperation from his
father.
Pa'hu Mor'ia (Qth'alpa Female [near human], Age 14)- Pa'hu is a ball of energy. She speaks
out of turn, has trouble following directions, and is decidedly undisciplined. However, she
is also the most positive of the students, and is always encouraging others. Though her race
is largely unknown in civilized space, she doesn't let her racial isolation keep her from
making friends of nearly everyone she has met. Though she has been hard to reign in, she is
another student who was given to Milius, since he is the new instructor at the academy, and
few of the other veteran instructors wanted her. (appearance is that of a anthropomorphic
rodent-like humanoid)
Seitho Hesthin (Iktotchi Male, Age 12)- Seitho is a rather quiet student, even when compared
to the other students that are under Milius' care. He is Stoic, Calm, Unresponsive, and
critical, usually speaking only when displeased or annoyed, and usually following orders to
the t otherwise. He has been the most difficult student for Milius to deal with, as Milius
doesn't know yet where to even begin.
Meliah Once Born (Togruta Female, Age 9)- Meliah once born is named so because she us an
orphan. She was taken in by a Jedi when she was found as the sole survivor of a natural
disaster on her former home world. She shows great signs of creativity and intelligence, but
is misundertsood by even most of her instructors, and struggles to find acceptance even
among other padawan. She tends to keep to herself.
Der'oth Sandskein (Miraluka Male, Age 14)- Disturbed young boy who was saved by a Jedi whom died in the attempt. Has been passed from teacher to teacher, and is being considered for "neutralization". This is his last chance at being a model student. Taken in as a favor to
Rhea, who was friends with the Jedi who sacrificed himself to save the child. Der'oth himslef is sullen and withdrawn. It takes Mlilius a lot to get him motivated, but when he does, the results are usually impressive.

There are apparently training lightsabers in the "Power of the Lightside" books that deal subdual damage. I could have that instead, if it bothers anyone.
Edit: after looking at it again, the training lightsaber doesn't deal subdual damage, but it apparently is just safer to hit someone with it, and has a significantly reduced chance to kill someone, but the idea remains valid.

Oh there are certainly training sabers. They do 2d8-3 or 4, putting their range at about 1-12, averaging around 5. They just can't stun. They are also, incidentally, the easiest lightsaber to make. For a pacifistic Jedi, they are just about perfect.
EDIT: hehe, looked at the wrong part. Found those training sabers you mentioned. standard damage on those, it just only does 1d3 wound points. That's kinda cool!

The story begins! And links...
Our story begins, here: http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=183294
(Sorry it's a bit later than I'd intended--a cold is slowing me down.)
At the start of the story, the following eight Jedi are assumed to be in the room with Atharias: Jodan (NPC), Milius, Nor, Tersh, Tyren, Xual, Tolark, and Sylara. As you can see, I've designed the initial prelude to give your characters a chance to intorduce themselves, while at the same time leaping straight into the middle of the story.
If you want for your character to make any skill rolls, make a note of it at the bottom of your post (and if possible, include your character's skill modifer for quick reference). If you know how to use Invisible Castle and want to make your own rolls, feel free. If not, I'll be happy to make the rolls for you.
Skill rolls and other necessacary OOC game stuff should be kept in spoiler text. (If you don't know much about tags like spoiler text and how to use them, check out this thread: http://www.enworld.org/misc.php?do=bbcode ) You're welcome to choose a special text color for your character's speech, but it isn't required. I'll be keeping this thread open for more complex OOC stuff such as rules questions (and so that we can hammer out a few of the last minute details about the characters, such as the special powers we're still in the process of discussing).
Oh, and Lantis? Welcome to the game. Could you please (sorry for the hassle) re-post all of your information into the Rogue's Gallery thread? It can be found here: http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=183177 That's just for my own ease of reference (and so that you can put everything together all in one post).
More updates tomorrow!
