1. **Telepathy** (recieve) (possibly communicate) __Description__: Force telepathy is a logical communication from one mind to another, conveyed through the force. This type of communication only works with sentients and can convey pictures, thoughts, and even complex information with great skill. It takes so little energy to recieve telepathy from another individual or group that it counts as an ability. In order to send Telepathy it often takes great energy though when mastered it can take so little it also counts as an ability. Telepathy is unlimited in range though it is important to know the person you are reaching for. Also it does not seem to be harder the farther away you are. Telepathy seems to be beyond distance or place as long as the user's mind can also free itself of these things.

2. **Empathy** (in and out) __Description__: This ability allows you to feel other's emotions and rarely project your own to others. These feelings are often slightly more distant than your own feelings and it is rarely hard to tell which feelings are really yours and which are others. There is a great amount of detail you can gain with empathy and the feelings are often very strong. Empathy is a very common ability and most people have a little skill at least already.

3. **Force Guidance** __Description__: Unlike force reflexes of Danger sense the force guidance ability is more like a feeling of what you ought to do. A prompting that a certain action or inaction will benefit you later. This ability guides a Jedi through the da, helping them in every aspect.

4. **Force Senses** __Description__: These are all three of the force senses. Force feelings, Premonitions/prophecies, and Proximity senses. These abilities usually take up no power but are the bread and butter of the force allowing you to see and feel the world of the force unlike most other beings.

5. **Danger Sense** __Description__: The Danger sense is a potent Ability alerting a force user of danger and allowing them to escape it quite often. It can be anything from a band of opponents stalking you to feeling danger down the hall where a trap or enemy wait.

6. **Future Sight** __Description__: This is much like a force prophecy except usually you see a certain area of events. As you gaze into the future possibilities branch out with thousands upon millions of vague or imminent possible occurences in any one situation. Looking at all of them is impossible, however searching a particular set of possabilities and deciding if they will come to pass is how this ability works. It takes no force energy, but even the wisest Jedi commonly make mistakes over prophecy and truths gained from this ability. Jedi can often see theactual events if they look hard enough but generally get a fairly detailed impression of the possible events.

7. **Emotional Senses** __Description__: Much like Empathy, instead of feeling what others are feeling this ability allows you to read powerful emotions in an area. If you are on the deathstar you will probably feel evil and hatred for instance instead of feeling several storm-trooper's aches as you might with empathy. You can sense emotions in other specific individuals as well (as Dooku often did with anakin sensing his fear and anger).

8. **Radial senses** __Description__: These are the Jedi's ability to sense the area around them. It allows them to 'feel' 'see' and sometimes taste or smell your surroundings at a distance around you. This ability is considered Key to any force user.

9. **Force Reflexes** __Description__: This ability is a minor precognition allowing a Jedi to react far more quickly than they would normally be able to physically. It causes a ytrained Jedi to act reflexively before the occurence they are reacting to has occured in many cases. It is less a reflex with highly skilled Jedi who instead have an advanced feeling of how events are going to turn out and may choose how to react in response. (A student might dodge a blow reflexively, a Master will be able to duck under and take advantage of the attack.)

10. **Force calm** __Description__: This is the ability to instill calm in yourself or others with the force. It takes up little energy and helps in vast situations to difuse situations, and improve negotioations and diplomacy. When used on others this specific ability often requires a touch.

11. **Force Rage** __Description__ This power is actually a dark power drawing on a force user's aggression to augment their offensive capabilities, brute force, and pain tolerance. Force users in it's effects are usually extremely physically strong, fast, and tough as well as aggressive and fearsome.

12. **Force Calm** (projected in radius) __Description__: This Ability is projected around a force user to influence all those around him or her, calming them. Sometimes this ability does drain energy and especially when competing with other dark aura effects that influence emotions, usually however this ability can be used without spending more force anergy that a force user regenerates.

13. **Force Disturb** (projected in radius) __Description__: This force power is much like a minor force trick of the mind. Instead of producing distractions it causes the target or several targets to get agitated, uneasy, and edgy. Usually this power causes targets to distract themselves.

14. **Force Hatred** (projected in radius) __Description__: This power shares a Force user's hatred over a large or small area with power equal to the force user's degree of hatred, power, and the area the power is covering. This allows dark Force users to instil much of their hatred in others which can make a fearsome army out of regular troops.

15. **Force Valor** (Projected in radius) __Description__: This force power is a highly light Jedi power. It instils courage, virtue and even some selfless compassion upon those within it's area bolstering them against the dark.

16. **Force battle meditation** __Description__: Force battle meditation is the ability to grasp a large battle and even perceive future actions of the opponent. It combines good battle-leadership with the ability to sense actions of the opponent just before and be aware of a much greater amount of the battle at once.

17. **Force combat meditation** __Description__: Much as Force battle meditation, however this ability applies on a much smaller scale to single combat allowing one Jedi or other force user to combat much more effectively.

18. **Force fear Aura** (projected in radius) __Description__: Using the Negative aspects of the force a Force user may prey upon the fears already contained within the minds of those around them feeding the darkness and paranoia and producing large or minor quantities of fear. Sometimes Sith become so evil that this power becomes an ability to them and they exude a certain menace without any exertions.

19. **Force Seduction** (no range though distance makes it difficult for some reason after leaving a couple lightyears) __Description__: This force ability preys upon the natural desires of the target tempting them and heightening sensations. It can even reach a point where it impairs the targets vision enhancing the looks and apeal of the user.

20. **Force mind-Shield** __Description__: This is the ability of a force user to protect themselves from any tampering with their minds by the force. These shields are as much a creation of the mind as the effects others may produce. It is a different world inside the mind. A powerful Jedi's greatest defense may be "Seeds" or goodness hidden throughout their mind that sprout when touched spreading fond memories to counter evil effects or a Jedi might simply hide or empty their mind making it extremely hard for other force users to locate and thus tamper with.

21. **Scream/Battle roar** __Description__: This ability has been used at times by Jedi however it is generally used by other force users. It is the ability of a Force user to augment the sound of a battle roar or of a dark force user to augment a scream. The roar tends to inspire awe where the Scream tends to instill paralyzing fear and outright terror in equal measures. This effect is accomplished by using the vocal ripples to shake opponents energies and instil trace amounts of the desired emotion. Closer contact is more effective.

22. **Awsome might** (Projected in radius) __Description__: This is an aura of sheer power similar to a battle roar but instead affecting the minds and visuals of opponents within sight. It preys upon inspiring power in the minds of the viewers in the area causing the user to appear awsome and mighty.

23. **Deadly Furry** (Projected in radius) __Description__: This is a deadly battle focus that inspires fear in opponents. The cold knowlege that if they oppose the user they will die in short order. This fear can make opponents surrender without hope of survival or run in full retreat.

24. **Force Dreaming** __Description__: This is the ability to use the force while asleep. It could involve any number of uses. Some Dreamers see the future, or remember the past as if they were those present. Others manifest force powers while asleep (like dream walking). Others simply display a usual force power or ability while asleep, always healing quickly while asleep or always exuding calm.

25. **Dream-Questing** __Description__: This is the conscious ability of a Jedi to remain aware during their sleep and use the force. Usually those who are capable or learn this difficult ability have the finest mind shields and are able to ponder and prepare during the night. Sleep while questing is less restful however. Even the mind must have rest.

26. **Force Life Sense** __Description__: This is the ability of the force user to sense life. This could be a radial effect or a farsight ability.

27. **Force Person Location** __Description__: This is the ability to sense a specific person who is not within range of your normal senses. You must nearly always have met this person in person before though you rarely need to spend a long amount of time with them if you have sufficient skill. The better you know a person the more simple this ability is. The ability to sense people in the force is not limited by distance. There is legitimate claim of an ability to force Bond where you are always aware of one specific individual no matter how far. This ability is not conscious though it may be more sensitive with more attention and focus directed to the bond. This bond forms with a deep emotional bonding and is not limited to love but is most often produced by it. The Bond most commonly happens between Padawan and master though in the case of Anakin and Padme both were able to use it.

28. **Force Focus** __Description__: This is the ability to focus the force as other less experienced force users cannot and comes from great experience and understanding in the force. It is an 'Ability' often attributed to force masters allowing them to produce more kick with less effort and be far more sensitive to the force.

29. **Force Pain Suppression** __Description__: This is the ability of a Force user to Suppress pain. It may be accomplished in two ways most commonly. Either a Jedi will release the pain and lose themselves in the force. As they become less aware of their bodies and more aware of the force the pain greatly diminishes. Sometimes the pain is reduced to the point where it is experienced almost second hand as you feel the pain of others through the force. The second way is similar to a force mind shield that allows you to seperate your mind from the pain by hiding ir resisting it or focusing in an area that does not feel the pain. In either way a force user is capable of reducing or eliminating pain on a massive scale.

30. **Force Draw** __Description__: This is the ability to draw force energy from one's surroundings and the flow of the force in general. To let the force flow through you.

31. **Sooth pain** __Description__: This is the ability to provide others and sometimes one's self with relief from pain. This ability works with emotianal as well as physical pain. It fortifies, comforts ,and shares another's pain allowing them to better cope with it. Often it can be done at a range and without any form of contact that can be felt by a non-force user. It is universally agreed however that the ability works better when in contact and with soothing words and wisdom and care.
