Old version of Force Power

The hallmark of Jedi is their use of the Force to perceive and influence the world. In FWURG, Force Powers are represented as distinct powers, each of which has a specific effect upon the world.

A Force power can only be used if the character meets certain Virtue requirements. If the character fails to meet these requirements for any reason, the force power cannot be used by the character.

The Virtue requirements for using a force power are the same as for learning the power in the first place, meaning that you can always use a power you just learned. Furthermore, some Force Powers can only be learned after mastering other, more basic, Force powers.

Jedi Progression: A Force Power can only be learned from someone that knows it, or from a holocron (or similar Force-related source of knowledge).

Jedi Character Creation: There are no additional character creation notes beyond those for progression.

Using Force Powers

At the start of a Mission, a Jedi gains Light and Dark Force points equal to their light and dark force ratings. These points can be used during the mission to activate force powers.

The Light and Dark Force ratings are computed by simply counting the number of Light and Dark force powers a character has. If a character has 5 Light Force powers, they have a light force rating of 5. If a Jedi's Dark force rating ever exceeds 20% of their Light Force rating, they are expelled from the Jedi Order.

Innate Force Powers

The training regime of the Jedi emphasizes physical fitness and awareness. Because of this all jedi manifest certain innate force powers that are embedded in the Jedi tradition:

  • Movement All Jedi have greatly improved mobility. They can jump a bit further, run a little faster, and make effective use of the environment to jump off ledges and pipes, allowing them to move around with relative ease.
  • Pull All Jedi can pull their lightsaber, and other small unattended objects, into their hand with the Force, even from a few meters away if need be.
  • Enhanced Reflexes All Jedi have superb reflexes, and can react to events with great speed and precision. For many Jedi this manifests itself in being able to dodge blaster fire, or pulling a lightsaber before the first shot is fired.

All Jedi characters are assumed to have mastered these innate force powers at the moment they achieve Padawan rank.

These powers are of such a fundamental nature that the training regime of the Sith imparts exactly the same innate powers on its pupils.

These basic powers are an ingrained part of the Jedi and Sith tradition. Other training regimes (such as that of the Night Sisters) might impart other innate force powers on their pupils.
