'''Taboo:''' Hmm, the Vulcans have aloot to answer for, I must confess my inspiration came from the ancient Betazoids and the Chinese Shaolin Priests.  I'd like to see one of your katas. :Daydan bowed to him and stepped away to give him some space:

: Standing straight he spun on his right foot and executed an impressive head-height side kick with his left. His foot remained in mid air for a few moments, demonstrating the strength of his quadriceps. Without landing his foot, he then continued kicking in a 360 degree motion, kicking in every direction.

'''Taboo:''' Blimey, you have been busy, yes that is correct, I had no idea what I wanted to do, my family wanted me to study mind sciences with the Vulcan's when I was a boy, but they grew weary of my, always asking questions and going against tradition, they couldn't wait to exchange me with a Chinese Priest who wanted to study the Vulcan ways. I think in some ways it did me a favour, at the monastery where I lived for the next 15 years my tutor and master instructed me well, he was like a father to me. The Academy was hard work but my classes were very popular, mostly Science and Medical Personel, Security seemed to enjoy rather more brutal styles. Wrestling and Tiabo. :Daydan scoffed: "Wind and Water" was still being developed then. I worked hard and perfected my art, and in my spare time I would study the Sciences and Engineering.
