Disciplines represent how your character prefers to use the Force and Skills. Disciplines represent fictional paths of training. Your character is unique and will ultimately fall into a “class” that best defines their style of fighting and way of life.
Each discipline is given two unique Feats that are only available to your discipline. One Feat enhances an existing Force Power or Skill, and the second is a Feat that is unique to the discipline.
Disciplines are not professions. This is why we have “Hunter” Discipline instead of “Bounty Hunter”. While the Hunter Discipline offers some cool perks that would make a good Bounty Hunter, a Weapons Specialist could just as easily be a good Bounty Hunter. This is also why you don’t have an “Assassin” or “Hitman” Discipline. A Sorcerer can be an assassin, but a Shadow has unique skills that could lend towards making a good assassin.
For those of you that are familiar with RPGs of varying kinds, Disciplines are similar to Classes, but with much more freedom in terms of developing your character however you want. In short, your characters are not limited by the Discipline you choose, they simply gain some specific abilities based on the Discipline you choose to follow. So, don't feel like picking a Discipline is as locked in as selecting a character Class that dictates any kind of limitations to how you want to build or play your character.

Seeker
"The truth... is where you seek it."
Knowledge is power, and a Seeker is always hunting for the truth so that they may bend and alter it to their whim. They are skilled in both the applications of pain and of pleasure and know when to apply which to get the information they require. Their attention to detail is unrivaled, and their understanding of the world and how it relates to the Force grants them unique insight into tracking and combating other Force-users.
Seekers gain:

Force Interrogation

Tier

Description
|
| JRM
|
Force Interrogation I
|
Unlike a conventional interrogator, {{member}} can utilize the Force to influence a subject’s mind. Basic emotions such as fear, hate, and anger can be used to get the subject to reveal information they would otherwise be disinclined to share, allowing {{member}} to use his Mind Trick at one Force Power Level above {{gender:his,her}} current level, so long as the goal is to gain information from a target.
|
| EQ
|
Force Interrogation II
|
{{member}} can now influence stronger emotions like love and suffering. {{member}} can probe deep into the hearts of {{gender:his,her}} subjects and find hidden loves or fears and draw them to the surface. {{member}} can either torture a subject with this information, or use it to willingly coerce the information they desire. When using Mind Trick to probe for information, {{member}} uses this Force Power at one level higher and may use any successful Mind Trick to temporarily instill some basic emotion such as agony, ecstasy, desire, or fear in order to extract information.
|
| ELD
|
Force Interrogation III
|
{{member}} can break even the strongest of wills. Given time alone with a subject, {{gender:his,her}} power of suggestion is powerful enough to manipulate any of the subject’s six senses, as well as their strongest emotions: morality and loyalty. The character’s intrusions can be so subtle that the subject would never even know they had given away information. It is also possible that {{gender:he,she}} can be much more violent and obtrusive, leaving the subject’s mind a mess. {{members}}’s Mind Trick is usable at one Skill Level above its current level when extracting information, and {{gender:he,she}} may choose to instill such strong emotions that it may leave {{gender:his,her}} target completely helpless for a time after the interrogation.

Juggernaut
"You’ll have to go through me first."
A Juggernaut personifies the idea of an unstoppable force. Striding across the battlefield, their energy directs the flow of combat around them. A Juggernaut can shrug off blunt trauma with the unique ability to harden their bodies with the Force. When Juggernauts plant their feet, there is little that will knock them away. They are also skilled in using the tempo of battle to push their bodies beyond the point of any normal warrior, their stamina wearing down at a slower rate as long as they are engaged in battle.
Juggernauts gain:

Surge I
|
Juggernauts are revered not just for their ferocity in combat, but their ability to fight longer and harder than others on the battlefield. As {{member}}’s adrenaline surges with every hit {{gender:he,she}} lands or takes, {{gender:he,she}} can begin to augment their Endurance to one Skill Point higher, as long as they are actively engaged in direct combat and focused solely on feats that utilize their Might or Athletics ability. When a lull in combat presents itself, {{member}} will immediately lose {{gender:his,her}} stamina boost, but suffer no penalty.
|
| EQ
|
Surge II
|
As {{member}}’s adrenaline surges with the song of battle or strife, {{gender:he,she}} can now augment {{gender:his,her}} Endurance to one Skill Point higher as long as {{gender:he,she}} remains actively engaged in various forms of combat. When a lull in combat presents itself, {{member}} no longer immediately loses {{gender:his,her}} stamina boost, but if no new challenge presents itself it will slowly fade away, without penalty.

Surge III
|
They say an an Elder Juggernaut never rests when there is still a battle to be fought. {{member}} can effortlessly elevate their Endurance to one Skill Point higher, even when not actively engaged in combat and with little focus. Lulls in combat pose no obstacle, and {{member}} typically needs to be killed or rendered unconscious to end the effect.

Iron Skin I

Juggernauts know how to take a hit better than most. {{member}} can dig {{gender:his,her}} heels into the ground and, with full concentration, momentarily steel {{gender:his,her}} body against impact to prevent {{gender:himself,herself}} from being staggered, knocked back, or thrown off {{gender:his,her}} feet otherwise.
|
| EQ
|
Iron Skin II
|
The Juggernaut has learned to more quickly harden {{gender:his,her}} body with the Force. As long as {{member}} has {{gender:his,her}} feet planted, {{gender:he,she}} only needs partial concentration to momentarily steel {{gender:his,her}} body against impact to prevent {{gender:himself,herself}} from being staggered, knocked back, or thrown off {{gender:his,her}} feet otherwise.

Iron Skin III

An Elder Juggernaut is seldom knocked off {{gender:his,her}} feet, even when {{gender:he,she}} is not able to plant them. {{member}} can momentarily steel {{gender:his,her}} body at will like a sheet of Mandalorian Iron in order to prevent {{gender:himself,herself}} from being staggered, knocked back, or thrown off {{gender:his,her}} feet otherwise.

Marauder
"Don't blink."
The Marauder embraces the Force in its rawest form, drawing on a wide range of emotion to act as fuel for their furnace. They flow through the battlefield, leaving a wake of carnage behind them. They use Amplification to augment their physical capabilities, carving through their opponents with mechanical efficiency. The Marauder believes that the best defense is a good offense; never hesitating, never faltering, and never backing down.

Battlefield Awareness I
|
Marauders weave their way through a battlefield with the speed and precision of a choreographed dance. In order to accomplish this, {{member}} focuses in on the ambient Force of {{gender:his,her}} surroundings to tap into and intuitively perceive the flow of battle. {{member}} can track the relative position of a handful of enemy targets within {{gender:his,her}} immediate vicinity whether they are in {{gender:his,her}} line of sight or not. Once a target is flagged, {{member}} can better handle engaging two opponents within {{gender:his,her}} sphere of awareness.

|
Battlefield Awareness II
|
Equite Marauders have further refined their innate connection to the ambient Force of a battlefield, and {{member}} is able to perceive not only the relative position of nearby enemies, but also track all enemy targets within {{gender:his,her}} immediate vicinity. Once tagged, {{member}} can better handle attacks from multiple opponents at the same time within {{gender:his,her}} sphere of awareness.

Battle Haste I
|
Marauders feed on the energy of combat. With every strike of {{gender:his,her}} weapon, {{member}}’s adrenaline flares and augments {{gender:his,her}} Athletics skill. As {{gender:he,she}} continues to fight, {{gender:his,her}} swings become faster, {{gender:his,her}} movements accelerating as attacks string together. The use of raw emotion takes away from {{member}}’s accuracy, and when the battle pauses or comes to an end {{gender:he,she}} experiences temporary fatigue as {{gender:he,she}} comes down from a battle-high.
|
| EQ
|
Battle Haste II
|
The frenzy of battle drives {{member}} into a willing fury that {{gender:he,she}} has learned to harness. {{gender:His,Her}} rapid, powerful chains of attacks no longer penalize accuracy, and when there is a lull or end to combat, the crash is minor. {{gender:His,Her}} emotions fuse seamlessly with the Force, allowing {{gender:him,her}} to strike more swiftly and more accurately.
|
| ELD
|
Battle Haste III
|
An Elder Marauder on the battlefield is one of the few things that can give a charging enemy pause. {{member}}’s alacrity, even in the chaos of battle, is rivaled by none. {{gender:His,Her}} strikes are not only quick but deadly accurate. As one foe falls, {{gender:he,she}} is already focused on {{gender:his,her}} next kill. {{member}} no longer feels any side effects of using this ability, and has even learned to store the haste in reserve to seamlessly accelerate back to {{gender:his,her}} peak at a moment’s notice.

Sorcerer
"...I shot Force Lightning at it, and it opened."
The Force can be a wondrous yet devastating tool to those who make a study of its secrets. A Sorcerer knows that the key to using the Force as a true weapon is the ability to keep calm and focused when the pressure gets turned up. Dark or Light, their strength in weaving the intricate threads of the Force is unmatched, making them potent even from a distance.

A Journeyman Sorcerer knows that the key to using the Force as a weapon comes from the ability to keep {{gender:his,her}} focus even when under fire. {{member}} has learned to tune out common distractions like taunts, loud noises and the chattering of crowds. {{gender:He,she}} is able to focus on using offensive Force Powers better when not being physically harassed or stressed.
|
| EQ
|
Battle Mind II
|
{{member}} has become fluent at tuning out the distractions and rigours of battle. Detonations, blasters, and the chaos of a battlefield fall on deaf ears, increasing {{gender:his,her}} ability to focus on using offensive Force Powers without interruption even if taking a grazing blow. More persistent and intensive bodily harm or injury can still cause {{member}}’s focus to momentarily falter.

Battle Mind III

{{member}} dances through warzones as casually as a strolling through the park. {{gender:His,Her}} focus when using the Force as an offensive weapon is unbreakable, even with explosions detonating in {{gender:his,her}} ear or the bloodcurdling cacophony of death and destruction wailing around {{gender:him,her}}.

Arcanist
"Mock our rituals all you want; the results speak for themselves."
Perhaps the most misunderstood of disciplines, Arcanists study the Force and how it connects all living things. By focusing on the more arcane and studious nature of the Force, they have created their own rituals and philosophies that let them accomplish tasks alien to the common Force-wielder. They can track a being through the Force using things as simple as a torn piece of cloak.

Dowsing I

All things are tied together through the Force, and an Arcanist can use those links to create connections between two similar items. These sympathetic links manifest as hazy mental images in {{member}}’s mind. This skill can then be used to track items or people. Even as an initiate, {{member}} can track a target across a city and through crowds using an item they possessed. The item must have been in contact with the target within a matter of hours. The better the link back to the target, the stronger the ability becomes. Concentration is required to effectively use this ability.
|
| EQ
|
Dowsing II
|
Drawing links through the Force to track a target has become second nature to {{member}}. These sympathetic links manifest as semi-transparent mental images in {{member}}’s mind. Items that have been in contact with the target as long as a month prior are serviceable: an old shirt, a bundle of hair, and, of course, blood. The stronger the link back to the target, the stronger the visions of the target become. Concentration is required.
|
| ELD
|
Dowsing III
|
There are few places one can hide from {{member}}. All {{gender:he,she}} needs to track a target down is the faintest link back to {{gender:his,her}} quarry, be it fingernail clippings, a ripped piece of clothing, or a speck of blood. They can track accurately across a planet of any size, and do so without much concentration. These sympathetic links manifest as crystal clear mental images in {{member}}’s mind.

Journeymen Arcanists are able to center themselves in the emotional grounding of their connection to the Force, pulling energy from the Living Force to temporarily refill {{gender:his,her}} own energy reserves. If {{member}} is allowed to maintain this concentration for more than a few moments, {{gender:he,she}} can reuse Force Powers which normally require significant rest without penalty.
|
| EQ
|
Channel II

Scavenger
"He's a BB unit with a selenium drive and a thermal hyperscan vindicator."
In a Galaxy where conflict over the varying methods and ideologies of government rage alongside the ongoing battle between the Dark and the Light, there is still room for the average sentient to make a living and survive without getting too involved.

Director
"It’s a trap!"
Leadership comes in many forms, but there are those that are born with certain gifts that help them stand out from others. Whether brokering in diplomacy or warfare, a Director seeks to manipulate events towards their desired outcome. They see beyond what is right in front of them and tend to be thinking of their next course of action before the current is even completed. Beyond that, they know how to influence the emotions of those that follow their command—all without the aid of the Force.

Wilhuff Tarkin, Leia Organa Solo, Gial Ackbar, Cham Syndulla, Thrawn
Directors gain:
- Checkmate, which grants a bonus to Intellect

Ace
"I can fly anything. Wings, no wings, push-pull echo force, in or out of lightspeed—just show me it."
Whether flying for a cause or just flying for themselves, Aces are more than just “pilots”.

This can be anything as small as a speeder bike to as large as a capital ship. Knowledge pairs with instinctive, seemingly inherent talent that allows an Ace to pull off incredible stunts without any intervention from the Force.

Scoundrel
"Boys, you're both gonna get what I promised. Have I ever not delivered for you before?"
