The Force

Core Force Powers

Force Jump

Force Jump is a core power for Force users that allows its user to jump incredible distances. A basic power, some Force users can instinctively perform a Force Jump while others have undergone extensive training to enhance their ability to use this power.

Level 1: A Level 1 user can instinctively Force Jump twice as high as a regular jump.

Level 2: A Level 2 user has trained in the use of Force Jump and can jump four times as high as a regular jump.

Level 3: A Level 3 user has been extensively trained in the use of Force Jump and can jump eight times as high as a regular jump.

Force Persuasion

Force Persuasion, more commonly known as a mind trick, is a Force ability where a user could influence and control the thoughts, behavior, and actions of another person, generally to the user's advantage. While considered a core Force power, specialized techniques are used by practitioners of both the Light and Dark Sides of the Force.

Level 1: A Level 1 user can use Force Persuasion to potentially influence a weak-minded person's decision making.

Level 2: A Level 2 user of Force Persuasion can use this ability to easily manipulate a weak-minded person to take an action or reveal information.

Level 3: A Level 3 user of Force Persuasion has been extensively trained in the use of this technique, allowing them to dominate the decision making of the weak-minded, making the user's suggestion irresistible and impossible to ignore (including attacking their own allies). In some instances even the strong-minded are able to be influenced at this level.

Force Sense

Force Sense is a basic Force ability that was a variation of Force sense. This ability enhances the user's perception to see beyond their natural ability. It allows a user to feel another being's feelings and ripples in the Force caused by momentous or traumatic events, impending danger, and variations in the Force itself.

Level 1: A Level 1 user has been trained to sense events within a short-range of their location. These users can only pick up the strongest emotions of nearby persons and can sense impending danger.

Level 2: A Level 2 user has been trained to sense events within a moderate distance of their location. Users can sense emotions within nearby persons, feel significant events, These users can see a short distance in darkness.

Level 3: A Level 3 user of Force Sense has been extensively trained in the use of Force Sense and can sense events at great distances from their location. Users can sense the emotions of those nearby, can see long distances in darkness, and their ability to sense impending danger borders on precognition. Some users can even sense the history of objects they come into contact with.

Force Speed

Force Speed is a core Force power that increases the speed of the user, enabling the individual to perceive and react so quickly that the world around them moved almost in slow motion. While advantageous, without specialized training the user of this ability can lose control and injure themselves.

Level 1: A Level 1 user has a short-term burst of speed equivalent to a 25% increase in their speed and mobility.

Level 2: A Level 2 user has a short-term burst of speed equivalent to a 50% increase in their speed and mobility.

Level 3: A Level 3 user has a short-term burst of speed equivalent to a 75% increase in their speed and mobility.

Force Telekinesis

Force Telekinesis is one of the basic Force abilities and allows its users to manipulate physical matter in a variety of ways through the Force. For a skilled user of this ability, the size, weight, distance, and mass of an object has little bearing on the ability of the user to maneuver it.

Level 1: A Level 1 user has an almost instinctive ability to use Force Telekinesis, but to an extremely limited amount. The ability can be used to move objects or switches and even pull objects from the hands of another person, or potentially knock them down.

Level 2: A Level 2 user undergone training and can use Force Telekinesis to manipulate multiple objects of smaller size and easily knock down others. If focused it can be used to throw a variety of small objects and even move larger objects, but this requires more focus.

Level 3: A Level 3 user of Force Telekinesis has undergone extensive training in the ability and can use the technique to move multiple large objects and even knock a group of others away or closer if needed, even throwing them a distance in some situations. Users trained to this level can manipulate large objects with relative ease.

Lightsaber Throw

A variation of the Force Telekinesis ability, a Lightsaber Throw can be used to maneuver a thrown lightsaber toward a target.

Level 1: A Level 1 user can throw their lightsaber forward and recall it using the Force.

Level 2: A Level 2 user can throw their lightsaber in a wide arc at multiple targets and recall it using the Force.

Level 3: A Level 3 user can throw their lightsaber at multiple targets and change its course while still in the air.

Light-Side Force Powers

Force Blinding

Initially a power of the dark-side, Force Blinding was adopted by users of the light-side of the Force over time. This ability uses a temporary burst of Force energy to disorient and confuse a target's senses, causing temporary blindness and allowing the user to evade an opponent.

Level 1: A Level 1 user can use Force Blinding to distract another person, making them perceive that they heard a sound.

Level 2: A Level 2 user of Force Persuasion can use this ability to distract multiple people by making them perceive that they heard a sound, or to pass by a single person by making the user almost invisible to the other's senses and obscure their senses.

Level 3: A Level 3 user of Force Persuasion has been extensively trained in the use of this technique, allowing them to make themselves appear invisible to multiple other people and obscure the group's senses.

Force Healing

Force Healing is a light-side Force technique that was long considered fabled and lost to history due to the complex training needed to effectively manage this ability. By entering into a meditative trance, the user could heal illness or injury that they had sustained or, as needed, could pour their own life energy into another to heal the target's injuries at the expense of the user's own health. Force Drain is the Dark-side counterpart of this ability.

Level 1: A Level 1 user of this ability uses the Force to minor heal injuries or sickness through intense meditation. After using this power the user will enter a state of unconsciousness that could last several hours.

Level 2: A Level 2 user of this ability uses the Force to heal major injuries or sickness through meditation, potentially falling unconscious for a short period. A user of this power can also heal minor injuries in another person but will enter a state of unconsciousness that could last several hours afterward.

Level 3: A Level 3 user of this ability uses the Force to heal themselves when near death, potentially falling unconscious for a short period afterward. A user of this power can also heal major injuries in another person but will enter a state of unconsciousness that could last several hours afterward or even die themselves.

Force Protection

The counterpart of Force Resistance, Force Protection is a light-side Force ability where a user can create a barrier of Force energy around themself, helping to protect from injury. A frequent area of study for Force users, Force Protection offers a strong method of protection for a user, but true mastery of energy dissipation was a rare feat to be accomplished.

Level 1: A Level 1 user of this ability can use the Force to protect against light physical attacks from an enemy combatant, but the potential exists that the enemy can overwhelm the user's defenses quickly.

Level 2: A Level 2 user of this ability draws the Force into a protective barrier that can protect against physical and some energy-based attacks from an enemy combatant, including blaster bolts; however, the enemy can overwhelm the user's defenses in prolonged combat.

Level 3: A Level 3 user of this ability essentially becomes one with the Force, creating a strong protective barrier that can protect against physical and energy-based attacks including blaster bolts, lightsabers, and even turbolasers in some situations. Lighter attacks can be easily overcome, but heavier attacks run the risk of overwhelming the user's defenses in prolonged combat.

Force Resistance

Force Resistance is the counterpart of Force Protection and is a light-side Force ability where a user can overcome the effects of Force based attacks inflicted against them by an opponent. A frequent area of study for Force users, Force Resistance offers a strong method of protection for a user, but true mastery of this ability was rare.

Level 1: A Level 1 user of this ability uses the Force to protect against core Force-based attacks, negating the effects of the other Force user's attacks in some instances.

Level 2: A Level 2 user of this ability uses the Force to protect against both core and Dark-Side based Force attacks, negating the effects of the Dark Side Force user's attacks in some instances.

Level 3: A Level 3 user of this ability can use the Force to protect against Force-based attacks, negating the effects of any of the other Force user's attacks in most instances.

Force Stun

Force Stun was a Light-side Force ability that was used to temporarily overwhelm the senses and perceptions of a targeted enemy, preventing them from moving in most situations. Strong-minded people could resist the effects of this power, and it was ineffective against droids.

Level 1: A Level 1 user of this ability uses the Force to overwhelm a target, stunning them for a short period.

Level 2: A Level 2 user of this ability uses the Force to put an enemy into paralytic stasis, preventing them from taking any action for a short period.

Level 3: A Level 3 user of this ability uses the Force to lull the senses of a group, placing all enemies near the target into a catatonic stasis for a short period.

Dark-Side Force Powers

Force Drain

Force Drain is a devastating technique of the Dark Side of the Force that allows the user to siphon the life force of their victim to revitalize the user's own health. Force Healing is the counterpart of this ability for Light Side Force users.

Level 1: A Level 1 user of this ability can fire a single, short beam of energy that drains the life of an opponent to heal the user.

Level 2: A Level 2 user of this ability can fire a continuous, moderate range beam of energy that drains the life of an opponent to heal the user, potentially impacting other nearby enemies.

Level 3: A Level 3 user of this ability has the capability of emitting a wide scale, continuous beam of energy that drains the life of multiple nearby enemies.

Force Emotion

An outgrowth of Force Persuasion, Force Emotion is a Dark-side Force technique that allows the user to manipulate the emotions of the target, causing an uncontrollable fear that would wreak havoc within the opponent. In most instances the ability would force the target to flee from the user, but at higher levels it could cause unpredictable response including catatonia or even madness.

Level 1: A Level 1 user of this ability can attack the mind of an opponent, causing temporary fear in the target that forces them to flee from the user.

Level 2: A Level 2 user of this ability can attack the mind of an opponent, using the primary, instinctual fears of their species to render the target catatonic.

Level 3: A Level 3 user of this ability can attack the mind of an opponent, overwhelming their system to trigger intense feelings of paranoia and doubt within the target. The impacted target will act unpredictably, attacking their own allies and even inflicting harm upon themself in some situations.

Force Grip

Force Grip is a Dark Side Force ability that is a variation on telekinesis. This ability was often used against enemies to restrain or immobilize them, holding them in position to forcibly control their movements, or, at a high enough degree, crush an opponent's bones and organs.

Level 1: A Level 1 user of this ability immobilizes an opponent and triggers spasms in their lungs. The user must remain stationary while using this ability but can escape while the victim recovers.

Level 2: A Level 2 user of this ability uses the Force to throttle the victim at range, lifting the enemy off the ground and inflicting significant damage. The user must remain stationary while using this ability but can escape while the victim recovers.

Level 3: A Level 3 user of this ability uses the Force to inflict massive damage and pain to a victim at range, lifting the enemy off the ground and potentially killing them. Unlike other levels, the user can be mobile while using this ability (the user does not even have to be within proximity of the victim) and can even move the target while lifted off the ground.

Force Lightning

Force Lightning is a dangerous Dark Side Force power that discharged a devastating barrage of electrical energy from the user's hands, inflicting severe pain on the victim and potentially killing them.

Level 1: A Level 1 user of this ability can fire a single, short beam of electricity that injures an opponent.

Level 2: A Level 2 user of this ability can fire a continuous, moderate range beam of electricity that can injure an opponent and also impact other nearby enemies.

Level 3: A Level 3 user of this ability has the capability of emitting a wide scale, continuous beam of electrical energy that can injure and even kill multiple nearby enemies.

Force Rage

Force Rage is a Dark Side Force ability where the user would use their innermost fears, pain, and hate to feed an intense rage. The user would then channel the anger to increase their own strength, speed, agility, endurance, stamina and ferocity against their opponent. While this increases the battle prowess of the user, their body would struggle to handle their rage for periods of time and the user would be incredibly weakened after the rage subsided.

Level 1: A Level 1 user of this ability can increase their own strength, speed, and endurance for a short period, but at the expense of bringing themselves near death.

Level 2: A Level 2 user of this ability can increase their own strength, speed, and endurance for a short period, but with less physical risk of death.

Level 3: A Level 3 user of this ability can increase their own strength, speed, and endurance for a short period, with little risk of death.
