Star Wars Power System

The statistics below are used for guidance and as references of the overall abilities of your character in terms of fighting and general skills, regardless if you’re a Force sensitive or not. But especially for Jedi or Sith characters, your various statistics in terms of Force usage (such as Alter, Control and Sense) will determine much of your skill and your midi-chlorian count will ultimately determine your potential, however Force connection determines your actual ability to tap into the Force and how easily or potently you’re capable of using it’s sub-abilities. Also your alignment with the Force determines which abilities you’re capable of using, if you’re aligned with the Light Side of the Force it’s a no brainer that you’re not going to be able to use abilities such as Force drain or the Sith variant of offensive Force Lightning. Also keep the general balance in mind, if you’re a master swordsman you can’t be immensely skilled in the Force. Leave your character space to grow considering that we’re in here for a long ride.

## Midi-Chlorian Count

Midi-chlorian exist in the cells of each living being and it determines your potential in the usage of the force, and ultimately how difficult or easy mastering the force will come to you. The scale ranges from 1 - 20,000. It should be noted that no one will have reached 20,000 as the only known person with a scale of that degree was Anakin Skywalker who was regarded as the Chosen One. Even Luke Skywalker didn’t have his potential in the Force, or characters such as Ben Solo or Rey. If your character experiences severe damage such as near fatal burns or loss of limbs which automatically decreases your cell count, your There aren’t clear cut levels to the midi-chlorian count, however the hard cap is absolute and we use a reference system to guide you. References as following:

* **1-3000**: You're a non-Force sensitive, a regular person and can not sense it albeit you are connected to the Force as is every other organic being.

* **3000-7000**: You’re not a Force sensitive, however your natural connection to the Force helps you in many things, such as reflexes and other abilities such as intuition. As such, you’re probably a far more capable pilot, a bounty hunter or anything of the sort compared to a regular person.

* **7000-13000**: You’re a Force sensitive, and your midichlorian count would have you recruited by the Jedi Order or the Sith alternatively. Your potential in the Force is powerful, however you must meditate a lot in order to truly connect with the Force and tune with it. Jedi Masters such as Qui Gon Jinn had a count of roughly ten thousand, which means that even with lesser count you may become a master. Similarly, Sith such as Darth Maul had a similar count and could perform incredible fears through the Force and even allowed him to survive complete bisection through rage alone.

* **13000-16000**: Your potential in the Force is great and communicating with the Force comes to your nearly naturally, and even prior to your training you might have sensed thoughts and emotions of others. Jedi Masters such as Obi-Wan Kenobi and Count Dooku had midichlorian levels of such degree, and both were able to match or even beat such Jedi and Sith as Anakin Skywalker, Darth Vader and Jedi Master Yoda. If you’re well trained and your connection with the Force is refined, you’re capable of performing similar feats.

* **16000-19000**: You potential in the Force is nothing short of immense and tapping into the Force is far easier than you than most of the Force sensitives alive, similarly you don’t require as much meditation to tune yourself with it. Jedi Masters such as Yoda and Sith such as Sidious are both within this range, with both being respectively the wisest and most powerful of their kind during their time. However, such counts are a rarity and found in very few individuals in the entire Galaxy. Similarly Luke Skywalker and General Leia Organa both had counts of this level.

## Agility

How agile, dexterous and fast is your character? Also keep in mind that the Force augments your agility and other physical abilities if you’re Force sensitive that is. Some cybernetics also enable greater agility, also specific serums that enable permanent enhancement of physical abilities. Some races are also naturally faster than others.

* **1-3**: You’re a regular person of basic physical agility and speed, likely a human or a near-human.

* **4-6**: You’re likely a fighter, a warrior or a mercenary who has had rigorous physical training or you might use stims or cybernetics to augment your dexterity or you might as well be a member of a species who are naturally more dexterous than others. If you’re a Force user, you might be an initiate or a padawan or even a Jedi Knight or even a Sith who isn’t physically as capable.

* **7-10**: You’re either greatly enhanced by cybernetics or stims and technology, a member of an incredibly dexterous species or most likely a Jedi or a Sith with skill in the Force. If a Jedi or a Sith, you’re likely a knight or a warrior who has trained and sparred rigorously and you’re capable of using the Force to augment your natural abilities greatly, so much that you’re able to cross even vast spaces immensely quickly.

## Strength

How strong is your character? Keep in mind that the Force also enhances physical strength and other physical abilities if you’re Force sensitive that is. Some cybernetics also enable greater strength, also specific serums that enable permanent enhancement of physical abilities.

* **1-3**: You’re a regular person of basic physical strength, likely a human or a near-human.

* **4-6**: You’re likely a fighter, a warrior or a mercenary who has had rigorous physical training or you might use stims or cybernetics to augment your strength or you might as well be a member of a species who are naturally stronger than others, such as Wookies. If you’re a Force user, you might be an initiate or a padawan or even a younger Jedi Knight or even a Sith. As such, you’re probably capable of lifting considerably more weight than a regular person and your strikes bear considerably more weight and power.

* **7-10**: You’re either greatly enhanced by cybernetics or stims and technology, a member of a species who are physically very strong or most likely a Jedi or a Sith with great skill in the Force. If a Jedi or a Sith, you’re likely a knight or a warrior who has trained and sparred rigorously and you’re capable of using the Force to augment your natural abilities greatly. However, keep in mind that feats of immense physical power are a rarity, and individuals such as Darth Vader only could do the feats he did by combining his cybernetic strength and the Force. So relatively, number seven is your best bet if you’re not enhanced by cybernetics or if you don’t belong to a species of greater physical strength. If enhanced however, you may even lift people with an ease and toss them around lightly, hold hydraulic doors with mere raw strength or even lift starfighters.

## Durability

How durable is your character, or can you heal easily as you take damage? Characters augmented with cybernetics or an exoskeleton are generally far more durable than humans or near humans in general. Also using specific gear material, such as cortosis or beskar might augment your ability to endure damage greatly.

* **1-3**: You’re likely a regular person of human or near-human species that does not possess a durable exoskeleton or any sort of armory that can prevent damage.

* **4-6**: You’re likely from a species with a durable skin or a exoskeleton that enables greater durability against blunt force, blaster fire or even lightsabers to a slight degree. You might also possess a cortosis armor that enables you to endure blaster fire more easily. If you’re a Force user, you’re capable of using self-preservation techniques or energy absorption techniques such as tutaminis to help you in absorbing damage more proficiently. You might also possess great willpower and survive direct electrocution without any significant damage. Keep in mind that some cybernetic augments might be immensely weak against abilities such as Force lightning, so your durability is subjective to damage or source of damage.

* **7-10**: You’re either heavily clad in beskar or your regenerative abilities are otherworldly. That, or your ability in such skills as tutaminis are nothing short of incredible. You might also possess immensely strong willpower, enabling you to tank Force pushes and Force lightning head on with limited damage. Despite this, you have your openings and your weak spots and if dealt with great enough damage, you won’t be able to avoid it. Those wearing beskar have to consider that armor is armor, and that it doesn’t defend from such techniques as Force lightning for example, however it enables you to deflect blaster fire and even lightsaber strikes easily. And even if you’re skilled with tutaminis or self-preservation, you won’t be able to absorb direct damage endlessly or from a blind spot.

## Stamina

How long can your character endure in harsh environments or a battle even when wounded? Reminder, the Force can help in enduring immensely harsh environments, such as space. Some cybernetics also increase your chances of surviving in harsh environments, and especially those with support systems similar to that of Darth Vader could endure immensely difficult environments. Some species can also endure in some environments easier than others, and some can endure even in space for some time. This should be accounted in your stamina. Also age is a factor in this area. Willpower is also a factor.

* **1-3**: You’re a regular person of human or near-human origin, you’re prone to last certain environments depending on your level of physical and mental fitness.

* **4-6**: You’re likely enhanced in one way or another, or you’re a Force user. As such, you may keep on going despite minor wounds and can stay in operative condition with little provisions. You’re also capable of enduring more harsh environments, be it immensely cold or heat with greater aptitude than a regular person. If you’re cybernetically enhanced however, keep in mind that some technology might be less effective in some temperatures or levels of humidity. You’re also capable of surviving even more debilitating wounds such as loss of an arm or a hand, however you wouldn’t be able to continue fighting after such.

* **7-10**: You’re capable of surviving even in the harshest of environments, be it for cybernetics, your species or your abilities in the Force. Such Jedi Masters as Plo Koon could survive in space for minutes without any support, and Leia Organa could survive being in space on sheer will and Force alone. You may be able to survive and live through fatal burns and multiple member losses. Keep in mind that enduring such events will cripple you for the rest of your life, or cause permanent damage nonetheless as the radiation levels in space might weaken you permanently regardless of the amount of healing.

## Swordsmanship

How well versed is your character as a swordsman or a duelist? Note: Jedi and Sith, keep in mind the lightsaber forms at use when building your character.

* **1-3**: You’ve no to very little experience in using a vibroknife or a blade or any hand weapon, and your self-defense or offense would be inferior in comparison to someone trained in their use.

* **4-6**: You’re likely experienced and trained in the use of at least a vibroblade or a staff and if a lightsaber ever came across you, you’d possibly be able to wield it with minimal success however with a high possibility of hurting yourself. You’re capable of besting regular troopers with success in close quarters. You might also be a Jedi initiate or a Sith initiate who hasn’t received much training as of yet, however you’d best your typical soldier in combat and could possibly take on a few of them at a time. You probably possess some proficiency in some martial art or a lightsaber dueling form.

* **7-10**: You're likely a Jedi or a Sith who has great proficiency or even mastery in at least one lightsaber form and you're capable of cleaving your way through most situations with a relative ease. You've likely come to Master at least one lightsaber form, as Obi-Wan Kenobi mastered Soresu, Yoda mastered Ataru and Anakin Skywalker had mastery of Djem So. Lightsaber is an extension of your being at this point. You might be also proficient in dual wielding forms, and more than likely you've acquired some proficiency of other forms as well despite mastering one of them. (Note: Especially Jedi Battlemasters may be very proficient in multiple lightsaber forms, however for the sake of character balance, don't own multiple forms and be a Force god simultaneously).

## Force Connection

How connected are you to the Force? For example rigorous training, specific training in certain environments or natural attunement may enable greater connection. Non-Force sensitives may rate this as 0.

* **1-3**: You're likely a Jedi initiate or a Sith acolyte, and while you've always felt whispers in the Force you've never been able to discern them nor control or communicate with it. You're still learning to connect with the Force.

* **4-6**: You've passed your trials and you might be a Padawan, a Knight, or a Sith warrior. You've trained yourself to communicate with the Force, or alternatively as a Sith—to command and twist it to your will. You now feel many things around you through the Force and you can sense the Force at large. You're in tune with yourself and the Force, however you still learning it's ways.

* **7-10**: You're likely an experienced Jedi Knight, a Sith Lord or a Jedi Master. You've spent years refining your connection with the Force and you could say that you're in nigh unison with it, or as a Sith, you can bend it to your will as if it was an extension of yourself and exploit it. You're so connected to the Force that you even the slightest of disturbances from systems apart. You’re possibly even capable of seeing the future through the Force, or alternatively, manipulate or obscure the visions it provides. You might be even so powerful in the Force that you may transcend death itself if your body withers, either being able to manifest yourself in the Force as a spirit or if you’re aligned with the Dark Side of the Force, your spirit may linger in objects or a place where your body died.

## Force Control

The Jedi Order's teaching method began with the aspect of Control, taught to Jedi Initiates as a way to open their minds to the Force and establish a base point for further development. Control was centered on the Initiate's own body and self. Development of these skills would continue throughout a Jedi's life and serve as the foundation for subsequent disciplines.

Three main abilities were centered around Control: tutaminis (energy absorption), curato salva (healing one's own self), and altus sopor (increasing one's focus on the Force). Albeit the Sith use the same abilities, they use different methods to approach them in comparison to the Jedi.

Keep in mind that if you’ve cut yourself from the Force, you have none of these abilities available for as long as you’re unavailable to the Force itself.

* **1-3**: You’re likely an initiate or an acolyte. You’re still taking your first steps, however with focus you’re capable of feeling the Force within and around you. With enough Focus and resolve, a Jedi initiate can temporarily increase their abilities for a short period of time. Similarly a Sith acolyte, if enraged, may draw on the Force to become more powerful for a short period of time. You’re also capable of hiding your presence in the Force, but not completely.

* **4-6**: You’re more than likely a Padawan, or even a Jedi Knight or a fully trained Sith assassin or a warrior who has gone through his or her trials. You’re now in tune with the Force, it being a constant part of you and you’re constantly aware of your surroundings especially when focused which now takes you far less effort. You may even use tutaminis to absorb energy based attacks, however only to a limited degree. You might also be able to heal minor wounds, but this takes you time as of yet and you expend a lot of energy doing so. You may also, either through focus or rage, enhance your physical abilities during combat. You may also hide your presence in the Force to a great degree, however you can not maintain such a state for longer periods of time.

* **7-10**: You’re attuned to the Force to a degree where it’s a natural part of you and the Force around you is as if air you breathe. You’re likely a Jedi Master or a Lord of the Sith, and your skill with control is undeniable. You’re capable of healing non-fatal wounds with little meditation or sheer rage and pain, and you’re capable of absorbing energy based attacks such as Force lightning and even strikes of a lightsaber. However, it requires you immense focus to deflect or absorb attacks if they come in great barrages and even then you might not able to do so despite your mastery. The most skilled Jedi or Sith may even combat other lightsaber duelists with their bare hands using tutaminis alone. You may also completely hide your presence from the Force, even in the eyes of other skilled Force sensitives.

## Force Sense

The Sense discipline was taught to Padawans and Sith Initiates to broaden the scope of their Control abilities. Dipping into a deeper understanding of the Living Force, Sense abilities allowed Force-wielders to immerse themselves in the environment. By the end of their apprenticeship, Padawans were expected to use the Force as an additional sense and be constantly attuned to its undulations.

The Jedi Order divided Sense abilities into four main groups: prima vitae (life detection), tactus otium (Sense Force), tai vordrax (postcognition), and projected telepathy. While there were many other styles to the Sense family, these were considered the most vital to Jedi teachings.

* **1-3**: You’re likely a Padawan, initiate, an acolyte or a Sith apprentice and you’ve only learned how to immerse yourself in the Force. You’re capable of sensing others through the Force and even discern some of their emotions. You’re also capable of reading minds of others and capable of telepathy, however this requires you great focus and another Force sensitive might easily thwart your attempts at doing so. You may also be able to recognize objects that you can not even see.

* **4-6**: You’re likely a Jedi Knight or a Sith warrior, now immersed in the ways of the Force. You’re capable of sensing the feelings of those around you and even discern some thoughts. You’re also capable of sensing others from long distances, even thousands of miles. You’re well capable of reading minds of others and perform telepathy, however more powerful Force-wielders may thwart your attempts at such. You’re also capable of some precognition, capable of visualizing events before they occur, however you may be fooled by someone more powerful. You may also be able to see events or hear things of past if in contact with an object or if you’re at a site which has memories in the Force.

* **7-10**: You’re likely a Jedi Master or a Lord of the Sith, a master of the Force in many ways. You may now hear things in the Force and sense events even from systems apart or at best even if they occur on the other side of the Galaxy. Feeling and sensing thoughts of others comes easy to you, and may only be unable to do so if you are matched by an equal. You’re well capable of speaking to many minds at a time, and have the strength to infiltrate almost any mind if not met by an equal or a stronger foe. You’re capable of seeing clear visions of the future unless the Force has been tampered with, and you’re also capable of sensing and seeing things of past with clarity if in touch with an object or if you’ve entered a place full of echoes in the Force.

## Force Alter

The Jedi Order and the Sith regarded the Alter discipline as an advanced form of Force use, taught to Jedi Knights who had mastered the arts of Control and Sense. It involved manipulating objects, influencing other beings, and affecting the environment. Such abilities needed to be perfected and honed, but many non-trained Force-sensitives stumbled upon such powers accidentally, which usually resulted in disastrous events. Without advancing to the Alter discipline, individuals could see the Force, but were incapable of manipulating it.

The fundamental Alter techniques were: telekinesis, affect mind, and Alter Environment.

Note: If you use specific Alter techniques such as Force drain, Cryokinesis etc. pick one technique you focus on, you can not and will not master multiple techniques for the sake of balance.

* **1-3**: You’re likely a padawan or an acolyte, and you’ve begun to wield the Force as it’s servant or as your own. You’ve learned the basics of telekinetics, you’re capable of pushing or pulling average human size beings or moderately light objects or levitate them otherwise. You’re also capable of mind tricking or infiltrating weaker minds. As a Sith acolyte, you may be able to use Force lightning to some degree but in smaller volume. If you’ve natural aptitude for special skills such as Force drain, Cryokinesis or abilities of such nature, you might be able to use them to slight degree.

* **4-6**: You’re likely a full fledged Jedi Knight or a Sith that has completed the training and trials. You’re capable of pushing and pulling or levitating multiple people at a time with considerable power, and you’re capable of even lifting as much as starfighters using the Force. You’re capable of infiltrating the minds of most and can fool them into doing your bidding, however more powerful or equal Force-wielders are beyond your reach. As a Sith, you might have learned some Sith sorcery already at this point and can use it to some degree especially if powered by Dark Side vergences. You’re capable of using Force lightning in a lethal manner, and you may have considerable skill in more specific areas of Alter.

* **7-10**: You’re likely a Jedi Master or a Dark Lord of the Sith and you’ve mastered the ways of the Force. Lifting starfighters and tossing things around with the Force comes easy to you, and you might even be able to use the Force to halt some average or perhaps even larger ships if you’re immensely powerful in the Force. You’re capable of infiltrating and shattering the minds of most, however if matched by an equal or someone with great willpower, you won’t be able to do much or anything at all. As a Sith, you’re capable of creating barrages of Force lightning or even Force storms at best. You’re also likely well versed in Sith sorcery and can cast magic from even systems apart if using the right tools to do so, and you have great skill in more specific areas of Alter.

## Defense

How good is your general defense in combat, and do you use specific methods to defend yourself in combat? For example, Obi-Wan Kenobi was regarded a master in defense due to his total mastery of Soresu. Also non-Force users who either use materials such as cortosis or beskar may have an advatage in defense. If you wield beskar, your defense against weapons such as lightsabers is enhanced.

You may rate this area on your own based on your overall combat skills, however be as realistic as possible in this area.

## Offense

How good is your characters offensive abilities in battle? Anakin Skywalker was known to be immensely skilled in the form of Djem So which allowed him to overwhelm Darth Tyranus who himself was a master of offense. If non-Force user, do you use specific weaponry to achieve good offensive output?

You may rate this area on your own based on your overall combat skills, however be as realistic as possible in this area.

## People Skills

Are you a good mechanic? Or are you perhaps a good pilot or have other skills, such as diplomacy that may help you with going around things.

You may rate this area on your own based on your character’s background.
