Force Powers book re-edit

[vong]

In the spirit of Gry's re-edit of all the PDFs, As some of you may know, I am currently going through the various books and merging the Force Powers into a single book. Please let me know if you know of any mistakes that were written (I have fixed the Combat Sense from +2 to +2D), or if you notice any errors in the list below. As well, please let me know if you know of any missing powers.

Finally is the Fan Made Section. I would like to expand that out a bit. So if you remember your favourite fan made powers, please link to the place where it was discussed, and post the power itself here.

I have listed the powers sorted by category below, and alphebetical list can be found here

Thank you in advance for your help!

Here are two Force powers that I am using. I cannot find where they were discussed, but I am using them in Hellcat's and Jamfke's game respectively here on the board.

[Bren]

Here are some home brew powers. Some are ones we designed. Some are ones I found that others designed. An NPC Force user had the fourth power. The fifth power was never used in play.

Alter Temperature
Alter Difficulty: (see below) modified by proximity.
Required Power: Telekinesis.
Effect: By speeding up or slowing the molecular motions of a substance, the Jedi can change the temperature of an object. Difficulty is based on the desired temperature change, size and composition of the object, and its motion relative to the Jedi.

Telekinetic Shield
Alter Difficulty: Rain -- Very Easy; hail -- Easy; violent dust storm -- Moderate; hurricane of debris -- Difficult. Characters may use this power for kinetic attacks, such as arrows or bullets and telekinetically hurled objects -- the difficulty is Moderate plus the damage roll from the attack.
The power may be kept "up" as long as the source of kinetic energy is constant -- it may not be kept "up" for bullets, arrows, or telekinetically hurled objects.
Required Power: Telekinesis
Effect: Actually a variation on telekinesis, this power allows the Jedi to absorb or dissipate kinetic energy, including various thrown or projected objects. A successful alter roll means that the energy is dissipated. If the user fails the roll, he takes full damage from the missile.
The character must activate the power in the same round to absorb the fired or hurled missile -- the character must be able to roll the power before the attack lands. He can't use this power after the attack has hit.

Eyes of the Beast*
Control Difficulty: Moderate. Modified by relationship and proximity.
Sense Difficulty: Moderate. Modified by relationship and proximity.
This power may be kept up.
Required Power: Call animal, magnify senses,( life sense)
Time To Use: At least one minute.
Effect: Allows a jedi to "piggy-back" inside an animal's mind. The jedi experiences all of the creature's senses but may not control the animal in any way.
*Versions of this power are often specific to a type of animal, e.g. Eyes of the Eagle gives power over birds.

Control Animal
Control Difficulty: Moderate. Modifed by proximity.
Sense Difficulty: The target's Perception. Modified by relationship.
Alter Difficulty: Based on the animal’s intelligence

Intelligence of animal............Difficulty
Very low [insects]....................Easy
Low [reptiles]..........................Moderate
Average [mammals & birds].....Difficult
High [dogs & mimicing birds]....Very Difficult
Very high [dolphins & apes].....Heroic

This power may be kept up.
Required Power: Eyes of the Eagle
Effect: You take total control of an animal's mind and body.

Mental Translocation
Control Difficulty: Difficult. Modifed by proximity.
Sense Difficulty: Moderate.
Required Powers: Emptiness or rage, farseeing, hibernation trance, instinctive astrogation, life detection, life sense, magnify senses, projective telepathy, remain conscious, shift sense
Time to use: 3 rounds to prepare + duration of power
Effect: When using this power, the Jedi's mind can leave his/her/its body and travel away from it in any direction and through any physical obstacle. The physical universe cannot harm the Jedi's mind (unless hypnotic/brainwashing or mind-affecting stimuli are perceived).
The Jedi uses the Force to perceive the surroundings, essentially duplicating the function of normal sensory organs. However, due to the complexity of this power, the Jedi can only use two “non-interactive” senses to perceive the environment (Jedi's choice; e.g. vision and audition). The sense of touch, or any sense that would require “interaction” with the environment cannot be used. Attempts to use interactive senses results in only one sense being available. If this too is an interactive sense, the Jedi is totally blind and cannot return to the body (the Jedi has no senses).
The non-corporeal Jedi may move at a maximum rate of 10m/round, unless a Heroic + proximity Control roll then made, then the maximum movement is 1km/round (i.e. 200m/s).
Proximity modifier is based on the furthest extent of the intended distance (declared before the skill rolls are made). Should the Jedi wish to go beyond this limit, a new Control roll must be made, modified by the increase in intended distance. Failing this roll results in the mind-body connection being broken, and the Jedi being unable to inhabit his former body (It is believed that the Emperor used a modification of this power to break his mind free from his body at the moment of his death on the 2nd Death Star. This suggests it may be possible to use Force Powers while using Mental Translocation--such as Transfer Life!).
The only method of detecting the presence of the incorporeal Jedi is by using Life Detection. Obviously, detection of the Jed in this manner is nearly always accidental.
The user's body dehydrates and hungers at twice the normal rate. In order for the Jedi to find the way back and reinhabit his body, the Jedi must make a Moderate Control roll.
This skill cannot be used to inhabit bodies other than the original host. Also, while using Mental Translocation, the body is very susceptible to the Force power Transfer Life (treat as recently dead body).

Thanks for posting those! I will provide my review of the powers below.

Thanks Vong and Cheshire for the responses. I hadn't heard of those powers so I kind of suspected they were D20 conversions. Plus some of the names were kind of a giveaway.

We had the home brew powers well before D20 appeared. I think the only things we ported over were from D20 were Force Push and Force Jump, which I believe we got from the playtest version of WotC D20.

I understand the desire to limit the number of similar powers in the list. I am pleased that you will be able to provide attribution for the D6 and converted powers.

It's not my intention to toot my own horn, but I've been working on some "upgraded" versions of the existing WEG powers, offering a broader scope to better reflect what we see in the canon. Perhaps an additional section for Optional Rules Force Powers?

I've been working on a compendium of sorts for a number of powers that have appeared in the novels and comics, but haven't been documented or converted yet to my knowledge. I've listed a number of them in the Legacy of the Force fan sourcebook thread, so you can go there and see what I've come up with. I will also say that I believe Leia used mental translocation in Children of the Jedi.
