DESCRIPTION​

Force stasis is a neutral but complicated telekinetic ability that allows a Force user to forcibly restrain their target—immobilizing living beings and other moving objects. Force stasis is usually used to restrain a target for capture and interrogation. Skilled users, with the proper timing, can use this ability to freeze blaster bolts in mid-air or other such projectiles. For most Force users, only one or two targets can be managed at one time. The stronger and larger the object, the more difficult it is to restrain. Likewise, attempting to restrain multiple objects increases the chances of failure.

But as useful as this ability is, it is not without its shortcomings. As a telekinetic power, Force stasis is all about the strength of a person's will. Restraining an athletic individual can be quite difficult if the individual has not already been weakened. Restraining another Force user requires that the individual in question either be sufficiently tired already or weaker in the Force than their opponent. It also requires the restrainer to place more of their concentration into the action.

PVP NOTE​

If two combatants are of equal or approximately equal strength, restraining an entire opponent is typically impractical. Slowing a particular action is more feasible, but still difficult. Using this power as an "insta-win" ability when outnumbering an enemy is highly discouraged.
