Force System

Just jotting down some notes of my conversation with Dan regarding the use of Force powers.

We're looking at a hybrid approach: some force powers being universally accessible by all jedi and some that must be learned. There is a certain unity or flow with the force that doesn't lend itself to picking and choosing which powers a jedi absolutely has or absolutely does not have. If all force powers were equally accessible, however, even powerful jedi would have access to freely (and effectively) use powers that they have never used before. For example, if a jedi had never cleansed another's body of disease then I would not expect him to be able to do it correctly the first time he tries - even if his Control and Enhancement skills are extremely high.

Thus, the hybrid approach. We will treat the more complex force powers the same way charms are treated in Exalted. They are defined as specific powers with specific ability requirements and possibly force power dependencies.
