The Force is a vast field of mystical energy which very few people can sense or tap into. Among those Force-sensitive beings in the galaxy, an even smaller percentage of those have the strength to manipulate it to their own purposes. However, one thing that is certain is that the Force touches all living things, and affects them according to its will. As the Force flows through some more strongly than others, many do not feel its effects, but those who do are capable of incredible feats of the mind. The Jedi scoured the portions of the galaxy under the Republic's rule to find any who were born Force-sensitive to add them to their ranks. Likewise, other Force-using traditions have sought out any potential members ravenously, seeking to expand their numbers with the rare Force users of the galaxy.
Some, including the infamous Emperor Palpatine, simply cannot accept the will of the Force when it comes to who can and who cannot sense its flow. The Emperor, having trained many loyal subjects, often found it a major inconvenience to have to skip over potentially valuable minions due to their lack of Force Sensitivity. As a result, Palpatine learned of an ancient uses of the Force that delves deep into the Dark Side to awaken latent powers in average beings. The result of this power's use is that the recipient gains the ability to sense the Force as though he had been born with it, still requiring instruction to learn but now able to manipulate the Force as any other Force user can.
Control Difficulty: Moderate
Sense Difficulty: Difficult
Alter Difficulty: Heroic
Required Powers: Affect Mind, Life Bond, Life Detection, Life Sense, Receptive Telepathy, Sense Force, Sense Force Potential, Projective Telepathy
Warning: Use of this power results in the character receiving a Dark Side Point
Effect: This power allows a character to bestow Force-sensitivity upon another being. If the character using the power makes all of the required skill checks to activate the power, he must sacrifice 4 Force Points to complete the power's use. If he does so, the target of the power becomes Force-sensitive, and gains 1D of Control, Sense, or Alter dice (player's choice).
