### Adept Creation

 For ease of explanation, anyone using the Force is referred to as an 'Adept', whether Dark, Light, or Sith.

Adept Character Sheet

SWBlankAdept.docx

Adept
 are created just like any other character with the exception that they
receive Purchase Points (PP) to GAIN Force Powers or to gain Force
Points (FP) to USE Force Powers.

For
 Adept Characters who are existing during the era of the New Republic,
they shall receive 1 FP and 5 PP to start. Adept characters played
during different eras shall start differently...

Every
 XP an Adept character accumulates can be spent on an additional +5 PP.
These PP can then be used to buy additional Force Powers or Force
Points.

#### Purchase Points

 At
 the beginning of character creation, these points are used to
"purchase" your Force Powers and how many times you can wield them. It's
 your choice how to spend your PP.

Purchase Points can be used in 2 different ways

* The can be used to buy Force Powers
* They can be used to buy Force Points, 1 PP = 1 FP

Some Force Powers cost more than others, while most require another Force Power as a prerequisite.

Example:
 Retan Kuun has 5 PP at initial creation. With these Purchase Points
(PP) he can "spend" 4 of them on Force Powers and buy 1 Force Point, or
"spend" 3 on Force Powers and buy 2 Force Points, etc.

You do not have to spend all your PP, but you cannot spend more than you currently have.

### Force Points

 This
 is the number of times an Adept can use Force Powers before they have
to meditate to regain their Force Points. Every Force Power costs one
Force Point unless otherwise noted.

Ex:
 Retan spent 3 PP on Force Powers and 2 PP on Force Points. This means
he can use his Force Powers twice (2 times) before he has to stop and
regain his Force Points.

#### Regaining Force Points

 Adepts
 regain 1 Force Point every 15 minutes. During this time period, they
can do whatever they want EXCEPT use other Force Powers. If the Adept
uses a Force Power during that 15 minut period, they do not regain a
Force Point and must start over.

Adepts can alternatively Meditate and focus on the Force, in which they restore 1 Force Point per 10 minutes. They cannot do any other actions when meditating nor carry on a detailed conversation. Meditation Trance will restore at a rate of 1 per 5 minutes.

Ex:
 Retan uses 2 Force Powers. Therefore, he needs to spend 30 minutes
without using a Force Power to regain those 2 Force Points. If he uses a
 Force Power after only 20 minutes rest, he only regains 1 Force Point
and must spend another full 15 minutes (during which he may not use
another Force Power) to regain the second Force Point.

Dark
 Side and Light Side Points are FULLY regained after 15 minutes after
use, no matter how many DSP or LSP have been used or what the Adept has
been doing.

Ex: Retan uses 2 DSP. After 15 minutes, during which he fought a battle and used 2 force Powers, he regains both DSP.

##### Learning Force Powers

 Adepts
 can learn Force Powers "out of game" (Which is just buying them with PP
 and adding them to your character sheet) or can learn them "in Game"
through role-play.

If learned in game

1. You must have the PP available to buy that Force Power
2. It must be taught to you by a Force Wielder who already has that power
3. You must also spend time role-playing the learning of the power
4. If

 the Force Wielder is of a different Force alignment than your own (i.e.
 they're Dark and you are Light) you gain a DSP/LSP from your learning
experience.Extra consideration will be given to those Adepts to learn Force Powers during gameplay...

##### Using Force Powers

 When
 using Force Powers during the game, Adepts should make every effort to
show they are using these powers with hand gestures. Remember, Jedi
Masters such as Obi-Wan Kenobi and Qui-Gon Jinn gestured with their
hands when affecting someone's mind. Darth Vader did this when choking
insolent Imperial Officers. Luke had to beckon his Lightsaber back into
his hand. This runs especially true when using a Force Specter (see
below). How else are they going to know what you want them to do?
Besides, don't you want everyone to see you using your cool Force
Powers?!

##### Using Force Specters

 Certain
 Force Powers will require Force Specters in order for them to be used.
Force Specters are NPCs dressed all in black and will not be
acknowledged as In-Game by any Characters, including the Adept who uses
them. They do NOT exist. They will perform the functions of certain
Force Powers as directed by the Adept. Please Note: Not all Games will
have Force Specters available. Please consult with the GM regarding
borrowing one if you do not have a friend to play it on your behalf.

Players
 who play as a Force Specter during a game, even if part-time, gain 1
additional XP for the event. This means the player can earn additional
XP for assisting as a Force Specter, even for a little while.

### Light Side and Dark Side Points

 In
 this section, we will cover the Dark and Light Side point system to be
used in our SW Larp game. They are both used as an additional Force
Point and as a measurement of ones current standing and how close the
Adept may be to 'going over' to the other side.

Dark Side Points (hereafter referred to as DSP) are used only by Light Jedi

Light Side Points (hereafter referred to as LSP) are only used by Dark Jedi

To facilitate ease of explanation, we will refer to them as DSP although the same can be said for LSP.

#### Starting DSP

 A
 Light Jedi starts with 1 DSP. This represents the temptation to succumb
 to the ease and speed of the Dark Side and that the Light and Dark
exist within one-another. It's a philosophical thing, yo!

#### Gaining DSP

 A Light Side Jedi can gain DSP the following ways

* Certain Jedi Powers automatically award a DSP for their use
* Using Jedi powers in an inappropriate manner (GM discretion)
* Inappropriate actions (not INaction) by the Jedi (GM discretion)
* Using a DSP

Warning
 - the USE of certain Force Powers will result in a DSP for Light Jedi,
and the USE of certain different Force Powers will result in a LSP for
the Dark Jedi. However, we are not going to tell you which do what. Some
 are obvious (like *Choke*) and others may not be so obvious. Use your best judgement...

#### Using DSP

 A Light Side Jedi can use DSP just like Force Points.

Example:
 Retan Kun, a Light Side Jedi, has 5 Force Points and 1 DSP. He can
therefore use 6 Force Powers before having to rest. However, there is a
cost. Every time a Light Jedi uses a DSP they gain ANOTHER DSP!

Coming to the Dark Side

If
 at any time the Light Side Jedi's DSP equal HALF their total Force
Points (rounded up), they have been 'consumed by the Dark Side' and have
 turned.

Example: Retan has 5 Force Points; if he gains 3 DSP he converts to a Dark Jedi

##### Upon Conversion

* All Force Points stay the same
* All DSP are lost
* You gain 1 LSP

A Jedi can ONLY lose DSP or LSP by their actions and deeds (as
determined by the GM and the Jedi's role-play)... or crossing over to
the other side.
