The Alignment System

The centre of Star Wars is of course the force, and those people
who have the ability to use it. These people can either follow
good or evil, to whatever extent. Their choice of light or dark
will affect how they can use the force itself. In this roleplay,
this is represented by the Alignment system. When creating an
order, you must pick an alignment from 5 to -5; 5 being as light
as possible (like Yoda) and -5 being as dark as possible (like
the Emperor.)
As the roleplay is based on the Star Wars movies, the force
abilities which you can use in it do not include the wildly
un-canonical ones you could see in other adaptations. (I.E. The
healing in SWTOR.)
Every force using order can use the basic powers: Telekenesis,
Force-assisted acrobatics and the mind trick. However, some
abilities are only for those who take a darker path.
Force Choke is available to all alignments below 4, as though it
is usually considered a dark side ability it is employed to some
limited extent by Luke in the RotJ. However, please note that
Force choke is much weaker with the hand of a lightsider, and
the more evil the user, the stronger the choking. (The ability
will only be for incapacitating one's opponent for users with an
alignment of 0 or above. Pathetic do-gooder weaklings!)
Force Lightning, meanwhile, is an exclusively Dark Side ability
and is only available to users with an alignment of -4 or below.
