Places of Power for the Force?

[tetsuoh]

Are thier rulings on this sort of thing?

Like the Dagobah Cave etc etc?

My group just found the place a great jedi master died and I was wondering if it could qualify to be such a place and what impact it may have?

Things besides possibly reaching his spirit.

To my knowledge, there aren't any specific rulings on things like a Force nexus or anything like that. That seems kind of like kind of an oversight to me. But, there you have it. I just looked over my TOTJC, and there's nothing in there. There is the remotest possibility that something of that sort that was mentioned in the Jedi Academy Sourcebook, but I highly doubt it. I can't adequately describe the JASB in a family-friendly forum.

There are some rules in other d20 verisons of the game, but no rules that I'm aware of in D6.

If it is strong with the dark side you could make it a very stinky place.


Just kidding, I was sure there'd be something in the Tales of the Jedi companion but no dice. There is only passing references in text such as "sensing sith magic in the region but unable to find the source" or another reference somewhere (Jedi Academy sourcebook I think) about a dark pool of water strong with the dark side that affects Jedi, presumably increased difficulties using powers near there, but I don't think there's concrete game mechanics for them.
I think the presumption is they're such a roleplay emphasis for effect, that GMs should house-rule specifically for each site as suits the campaign and adventure, for desired effects to create an atmosphere for the PCs.
These will apparently involve typically visions/illusions and minor influences. Probably also things like dark side sites attract dangerous predators to attack the party with, lightside sites might attract interesting hermits to provide adventure insights with.

The closest thing in d6 that's associated with dark side nexuses is Gry Sarth's/cheshire's d6 conversion for Force light, which can be used to "purify" dark side nexuses.

To the best of my knowledge, this hasnt been covered in any real detail in the WEG materials.

On the other hand, a few of us are planning to put together a "Guide to the Force", and locations strong in the force is something that we have specifically talked about addressing.

In that case, we'd love to have you!

We're hosting/organizing our projects here: http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/RancorPitBooks/

While we do have a large list of projects, we are trying to tackle them one at a time for the most part. Our current project is a Cantina guide, then we will be finishing up one of our member's Medical guide before investing ourselves in the Force guide.

I've joined up.

If the jedi source book is still being worked on, i would like a try and seeing what i can come up with for the Jedi forms.

There's loads of info about light side and dark side locations [and rules for creating them] in the D20 book "Power of the Jedi Sourcebook." My recollection was that it didn't look TOO hard to convert to D6. If nothing else it would serve as a good platform for inspiration.
