Interlude - Questions and Answers

[Trax]

I wanted to ask before posting anything IC, but is Trax aware that Niil and Collan are force sensitive?  For Niil he likely would have put the pieces together from everything he's seen from him personally and the fact that there was a significant bounty on his head.  Though he might have made comments here and there as well.  And I think Collan has commented once about how he can 'feel' things.

[GM Craig]

Yeah, they talk about feelings and such. Up to you if Trax made the leap from "Feelings" to Force Sensitive.

[Niil Spaar]

I'm gonna wait until everyone's done.  I have a personal request to ask of Mrs. Jedi.  And possibly Ch'lana, if he's still around.

[Trax]

So there's a skill to resist force powers?  I'm guessing it's probably Perception based?

[GM Craig]

Yes.

[Collan]

No Force training for you! Damn...I was hoping to learn Control for Concentration. That power is do damned useful.

And is the skill used Willpower?

[GM Craig]

Willpower for resisting mental probing and control and the like. There are other skills that can be used to resist force powers. They're a lot less efficient that Jedi skills, so if you're going the Jedi route, you're better off putting points into Control.

But for a non-force-sensitive, there are techniques and skills that can boost force defence.

[Collan]

Yes. The idea was for Collan to go the Jedi route. So knowing how to get there in game would be helpful.

[GM Craig]

I'll post rules for it later.

[Collan]

I'll post rules for it later.

Can you clarify if that is for Trax or Collan?

[GM Craig]

Yes.

[Collan]

Will you in the next post state if your original comment about posting the rules was for ( select one):

A. Resistance Training
B. Force Training
C. Both a&B

[GM Craig]

Resistance Training. Force Training is well defined.

[Niil Spaar]

So, at the risk of sounding dense, was there something Collan and I were missing to get trained?  Something we're not doing, or should be doing?

[GM Craig]

Perhaps you should ask her.

I refer you to http://chronicles.altarka.org/index.php?topic=141.0 - specifically item #1.

To further clarify - the GM did not tell you "no." She told your character "no."
