Control Another's Pain

[Quan]

If I use Control Another's Pain on an incapacitated character, does he return to consciousness or does he remain unconscious? If the latter applies, how can I wake him up?

[cheshire]

There is a separate return another to consciousness Force Power. May I ask what edition of the rules you are using, and I can give you a page reference.

What he said... All control another's pain would do in that situation is allow him to ignore the -2d he would suffer once returned to consciousness.

Indeed, the role played effect would be like a writhing, incapacitated patient moaning in a semi-comatose state being suddenly able to find peaceful rest at the hands of the Jedi.
It would have no game effect, but certainly can have a roleplay effect of simply putting a badly wounded patient in a more restful state, eg. the GM might describe a party member falling to serious damage and howling in pain, incapable of further action without medical aid, if a PC Jedi had only control another's pain and decided to use it for purely good RP "in-character" reasoning, I'd award him an extra CP at the end of the adventure for good RP involvement.

But otherwise as garhkal and cheshire said.

Now on a related q... What would the wound penalty level be for being at incap??

irrelevant since you're physically/mentally incapacitated at the time?

[Quetzacotl]

Not irrelevant at all since you can wake up if someone makes a Moderate First Aid Check. You would still be incapacitaed, but you could fight.
The only thing it say is "The incapacitated character is now awake, but is groggy, cannot use skills, and can only move at half his "cautious" rate".

In other words, an incapacitated character can't fight (because he would need to use skills). With CAP he should be able to fight normally then...
