Force Heal is one of the Force Powers available to the Jedi. This power is only capable of healing others.
● Power: Letting their life energy flow to someone else, the Jedi can heal them. This power can not be used on yourself. You can use this power freely, but every time you use this power, you will get a -1 Force Level for the rest of the mission as you transfer your life energy to someone else. It takes a few minutes to allow someone to recover with this power.
● Rank 1: The Jedi's healing power can now heal minor wounds such as a torn tendons, stop internal bleeding and reset dislocated joints. Depending on the severity of the injury, this can take from a few minutes to an hour.
●● Rank 2: The healing powers of the Jedi continue to improve, allowing them to cure serious injuries such as broken bones, damaged organs and radiation poisoning. Depending on the severity of the injury, this can take a few hours.
●●● Rank 3: The Jedi's compassion and healing power is of such magnitude that they can now revive those that just died. Depending on the severity of the injuries that caused death, this can take from a few hours to days. Note that the body needs to be in relative intact state to be able to revive someone; missing critical organs might prevent this power from working.
This power states that the Force Level penalties will only go away between missions. We did so because the only clearly defined measure of time we are sure to be measurable is 'one mission'.
If the characters have extended periods of rest during a missions, such as when they are trapped on a swamp planet for several months, or when they travel through hyperspace for several months, the Storyteller might be generous and allow the Jedi to recover all or part of their penalty.
