White Current/Legends

The White Current was a form of the Force energy field related to the mind, body, and spirit that the Fallanassi adepts practised. Through the White Current, the Fallanassi could conjure illusions that those outside the Current would believe to be true and trick all technological instruments, but reality could be observed for those that immersed themselves in the White Current; rather than being simply an interpretation of the Force, the White Current allowed Force-sensitives that were immersed in it to perceive the Current's own flow within the Force.Fate of the Jedi: Vortex
Styling themselves as the Adepts of the White Current, the Fallanassi were a pacifist group who used the White Current to conceal themselves, rather than for anger, protection, healing, aggression, or any other reason.
==Overview==
The White Current was found by the Force-sensitives of the planet of Lucazec, primarily that of the Fallanassi of the village of Ialtra. The Fallanassi there, unlike other Force-sensitives, had no desire to physically affect their surroundings; instead, they desired to focus solely on the mind, spirit, and body, and how those three entities formed a single individual. Such studies and explorations eventually gave way to the discovery that the three aspects flowed and formed eddies and whorls—the White Current—within the Force energy field. Manipulation of, and immersion within, the current allowed for extreme manipulation of these three aspects. However, Fallanassi techniques allowed for little to no manipulation of other aspects of the Force. Because of this, Adepts of the White Current were capable of manipulating powers and abilities that directly pertained to the mind and how the current interacted with the body and spirit, but had no control over physical manifestations of the Force such as telekinesis.
Practitioners of the White Current also gained the ability to sense the White Current around them, which allowed them to sense sentient beings by the ripples they made in the Current. This power allowed them to detect the presence of cloaked or invisible sentient beings—whether it be through the Force or technology—as well as their approximate numbers.
Full Force immersion in the White Current could shield skilled practitioners from vision and electronics, including automated starship sensors. Long after the Fallanassi learned to immerse themselves in the White Current, they learned how to take objects and even places with them. Permanent Fallanassi illusions shielded the Jedi Praxeum on Yavin IV, as well as Fallanassi settlements. The White Current could even be used to make entire starships invisible, as demonstrated by the Fallanassi apprentice Akanah Pell during the Black Fleet Crisis.Tyrant's Test These ongoing effects did not require sustained meditation, but they did draw upon the presence of their creators or other Masters. For example, over-deployment of Jedi Masters weakened and compromised the permanent illusion which protected the Jedi Praxeum, causing the Invasion of Yavin 4.
