 * Force Channel Object **

__How to perform this Force skill__: This ability is great to experiment with and it is one of the most (relatively) safe ones to experiment on since you aren't working with your own body or another's. This skill is where you suffuse an object with energy.

Now remember that the force in it's natural state will seep into and through things. This is why our own thoughts and emotions alter out lives in ways other than just altering our choices. Because they actually seep into the areas around us.

In order to do this you will practice seeping energy into an object.

__Types of objects__: You can do this with just about any object, but each kind of object depending upon what it is made out of retains energy differently. Crystals are widely known for their ability to store and contain large amounts of energy reliably for good reason. You should get a feel for how well an object holds energy as you practice seeping energy into different items.

__Retention__: Once again, different types of items depending upon what they are made out of retain energy bet

ter or worse. Now, once you get a feel for it you can adjust this to some amounts.

In order to do this you will have to attune the energy to the object. There is little other way to describe this other than to say that you must make the energy feel like it belongs there, like that is it's center. Even when you do this you will still have a slow loss of energy as it returns to the enviroment.

You can also 'seal' an item if you stiffen the edges with force energy that you have solidified to retain the force. This is much less reliable since the energy will rapidly exit the item if it breaks or once the barrier erodes in any area which it will do eventually.

__Empowering__: Using the force to add and then stiffen the energy within an item (not a simple version of stiffening the force) you can empower an object to create much more impacting blows or to survive harder strains than it usually would.

The implications are wide. You can make a sword stronger, a staff can have explosive impact, any weapon that cuts can damage the energy of the opponent causing more damage that just the cut itself.

Remember to use this skill wisely. Dirty tricks often rebound on the user. I think it is safe to say that increasing the strength of your own weapons or items, and storing/focusing energy should be your only uses of this skill.
