High Republic · Prequel · Clone Wars · Empire
Not-great. The current binds.
The Order’s longest-serving Grand Master. He trained generations, missed the Sith in the Senate, and spent his last years teaching one farmboy how not to become his father.
Grand Master. Unknown · Unknown. 896 BBY. Force ghost.
Death
4 ABY
Died of old age in his hut on Dagobah, after training Luke. No blade. No killer.
Touched the Force
Living Force
Life generates the field. The present is the lesson. Qui-Gon lived here; the Council often did not.
Cosmic Force
All living energy feeds a larger will. Destiny, binding, what speaks after death.
Balance
The Order said the Chosen One would bring it. They did not agree what the word meant.
Light
The light is how you use the field when you are not trying to own it.
The bridge
Midi-chlorians did not invent the Force. They named how life hears it.
Awareness
To feel the field at all. Everyone starts here, including people who will never lift a stone.
Push, pull, hold
The most filmed use. A crate, a throat, a fighter, a throne.
Foresight
Visions are true and incomplete. Anakin’s were both.
Lightning
Sidious’s signature. Dooku’s court trick. Rey, once, in a hangar she did not mean to break.
Absorb / deflect
Yoda eats lightning and throws it back. A Jedi answer to a Sith trick.
Keep a shape
A Jedi who finishes the Priestesses’ lesson can still speak. A Sith tries to steal a body instead.
Jedi
An Order that served the will and, for a thousand years, also served a Republic.
Morichro
A rare art that slows a body toward death. Many Jedi treated it as legend. A few treated it as a warning.
Unifying Force
Destiny, binding, the view from above the room. Cosmic is the later name for much of the same well.
Vergence
A place — or a life — where the field is thick enough to name.
Kyber
Not a battery. A partner. Ilum’s children find one; Sith make one bleed.
Netherworld of the Force
Death feeds the Cosmic. A few keep a face in that well and walk back.
