Hello

It will be a relatively short crt.

Additions go to this page.

P&A
Perception Manipulation (Being guided by the Force allows the user to see everything in slow motion)
  • This will be added to the Jedi's force powers and tabber. Since being guided by the force (instinctive reaction) is something very basic to them (basically the first training they receive before becoming padawans) and the one who did the feat was a padawan Obi-Wan
Paralysis Inducement
  • The justification is already on the page, it's just that in addition to slowing things down, Force Stasis can also freeze things.
  • Added to Force Stasis
Mind Manipulation (Using Mind Probe can break the target's mind)
  • Added to Mind Probe

Everything except resistance to Pain Manipulation is fine.

Simply enduring pain is a Stamina feat.

Resistance to Pain Manipulation would imply being literally less affected by some supernatural means of afflicting pain directly.

I mean, but Mind Probe is that.

Isn't that a way to cause pain supernatural? And Jedi were trained to resist that.

Well, they resist it only if they actually feel less pain, rather than still feel it but just endure it, if that makes sense.

Well, I don't think there's a way to measure the level of pain between characters to know if each character felt less pain, but shouldn't the statement that they are trained to resist this Mind Probe power package indicate that?

Mainly because Mind Probe is a technique to extract information from someone, either by reading their mind, taking their memories and extracting information from them. Pain can be a means of extracting information from someone, like torture for the character to say the information and end the pain.

If the Jedi were trained to resist this, that is, trained so that an information gathering technique doesn't work on them, wouldn't pain be included since it is a means of doing this?

This is my last question, if you still disagree I will put you in disagreement with this aspect.

Thank you for your time.

Well we still see them clearly in pain during, right?

It's like you said, feeling less pain from the supernatural ability than a person who doesn't resist. So he can still feel pain.

But like I said, it would be hard to prove the amount of pain (especially because different media probably treated the level of pain from the mind probe in different ways)

Well, then I'll mark you as disagreeing on this.

I feel you. Either way it can be noted in their Stamina and considered in a versus match. I'm just hesitant to say they "resist" it without direct proof.
