notes on:
force heal - created by game developers, not actual force power (hell wouldn't that have been useful over the entire course of the films?)
@JMX. Rule of two came about (according to the comics which is the only source at current) about a thousand years bby. Darth Bane wrote it and saw to the destruction of the other Sith via manipulating them into using the thought bomb. He got most of his knowledge from Revan's holocron.
only going to make comments on the above:
Force Levitate, as long as it isn't "force flight" which is specifically a Dathomri Witch Power, seems ok...
Palpatines "force storm" was actually "force Wormhole" which is WAY overpowered if even allowed, therefor totally out of the league of this RP.
Palpatines 'force wormhole' (Originally called force storm until Lucas used force storm in the KOTOR games in it's 'real' and canon form) is post ROTJ and ergo non canon and BS.
Psi wrote:Force heal exists in a "trance" version for use on self, and a mediation/focus version for use on others. how it's used in KotOR isn't the right way either, but since the heal does exist in another form, i'd lean towards it's use, as healing spontaneously in combat would be overpowered. but, i would make healing a Lightside power, as the only forms of dark side healing are actually temporary at best, and can only be performed in the height of anger...
I don't recall it being used in that way in the films, any of the games or the TV series. If you'd like to correct me however...
The only form of force 'healing' I am aware of are the abilities of the Jedi to stable a dying beings mind and body to keep them alive a bit longer and the ability of the older jedi to basically stay alive through their connection to the force (Master Yoda...).
Psi wrote:now, finally. the
seventh Battle of Ruusan is the last battle that involves a "sith empire", until the time of
Darth Krayt, who instigated the Rule of One in around 130 ABY.
You're doing it again. The post ROTJ stuff.. aka new sith empire, return of palpatine yadda yadda yadda isn't canon. Lucas has said it, the creator of Star Wars, the man who owns the franchise and is effectively God as far as this universe goes has said no, it's not the way I had envisioned it to go, as far as I am concerned it's not canon. The interview was in Empire film magazine about 18months ago now. The fact he's developing games that contradict the 'future' story lines aspects should be enough to point that out, we've already had one... (force storm..the aptly renamed force wormhole). But yes, you got the battle and time periods correct.
Psi wrote:also, as to the comments of "wiki usage", i can easily use another source that is NOT so "easily edited" but i was mainly using it to "post a link to prove it" on ideas i already knew. the lightsaber generating heat was mentioned in a young jedi knights book i read when Tenel Ka was deciding what to build her lightsaber out of(she mentioned she could build it out of wood since it generated no heat).
You can use me. If it's Star Wars and it's canon... I will know about it. Just PM and you'll be answered.
Psi wrote:now, i could argue that you're being stingy and that the "obscure force powers" could be used, but most of the force factions that use them are NOT in this era. the
Witches of Dathomir(my fav force using faction) aren't around until around 600 BBY, the
Aing-tii are withdrawn force using monks until around 8 ABY, and i don't believe the
Jensaarai are established yet or
Zenson Sha aren't out of isolation yet.
I am not being stingy lol. I am using common sense and being loyal to Lucas. All the force powers I have listed come from the films, games and tv series. The canon. They can be combined and mastered to points where some of the other stuff could be theoretically achieved but that should be part of the fun of the role play for the masters (sith/Jedi).
Psi wrote:now, if the era is determined to be pre-mandalorian wars, then obviously most of those force using organizations are out of the question due to the timeline, and the only one which is hazy is the Aing-Tii which frankly i think should be ruled out as a matter of point.
I don't think you should limit force powers to timeline, only canon. The Sith and Jedi Masters of old were the strongest force users and best weapon masters as stated by Kreia. If it could be done with the force they would have been able to do it as much as Yoda or Palpatine and other will have done.
Theoretically speaking, it comes from the same source... it's just the same power being manipulated by different minds. So naturally some users will use it in different ways that appear to be new by combining known techniques.
It also gives some freedom to the role play whilst allowing it to be right.
@Zeratul and Psi....
Psi wrote:now, onto Zeratul's list of force powers:
Dopplegänger / Force Phantom - very advanced, partially illusion, with some sort of physical element... only for masters of the force...
Phase - walk through solid objects
i'ma say no to both of these, as i'm quite sure there's only one known instance of phase, and is quite frankly a partly overpowered ability. while doppleganger allows for too much abuse in the form of not actually being present before someone, while they may appear to be...
I think a lot of Zeratuls added powers to my list shouldn't be on because they don't exist simple as that.
