Darth Desolous's martial art

The Sith Lord Darth Desolous developed his own form of martial arts, which combined Cortosis shields and melee weapons. The shield was typically used to block an opponent's attack, leaving the enemy open to counterattack. Desolous trained an army of Pau'ans in this style and employed them in a series of strikes against the Jedi Order, until he and his army were defeated during a battle on Yaga Minor.
