7 FORBIDDEN Force Abilities Banned By the Jedi Council

it is infamous how staunchly the jedi order adhered only to the light side of the force the jedi believed in performing their function as keepers of peace in a strict and certain way denying many aspects of the force that they deemed to be too dangerous or far too tempting towards the dark side many of their fears aren't exactly unfounded though as some of the most powerful sith in galactic history came right out of the ranks of the jedi with the jedi having had five great schisms in their order before it makes sense that they would

try everything in their power to stop any inkling of the dark side from piercing their sacred temple many codes rules and regulations were imposed on the knights and padawans to ensure that only the light and will of the force was sought after by those within though one might say that this tighter squeeze the tighter the order more drove many of their members away but what we wanted to focus on in today's video and in today's analysis was the top 7 banned force abilities of the jedi order seven force abilities that the jedi order deemed too

dangerous there were far too many dark side abilities to count that would get you in trouble with the jedi high council so for this video we won't simply be focusing on just any of the dark abilities that would get you a slap on the wrist or even harsh punishment no today we will be exclusively focusing on the worst of the worst the kind of force abilities that even if a master of the order were caught attempting to do them they would be almost instantly thrown out of the jedi entirely so without further ado students of

the force let us begin number 7 force crush force crush was an ability of a bit of a slippery slope as it had several caveats for the jedi in the clone wars force crush became more of a widespread use as it was particularly effective against battle droids jedi were able to dispatch several battle droids and effectively disarm doors by simply using their telekinesis to crush them completely where this ability walks the line of the dark side is when one uses it against a living thing or person while there was a loophole when the ability came

to droids the jedi council was diligent to make sure that this power did not get out of hand while force choking someone will land a jedi in deep trouble but not outright banishment force-crushing a living person would most likely cause a jedi to not only be stripped of their rank but also court-martialed technically it is written that the jedi should refrain from using the force against another being as much as possible as exerting one's strength over another is not the jedi way however as we know when it came to the republic class era in the

clone wars this sort of thing was more or less tossed out the window during wartime and during the clone wars in the faces of many jedi as many jedi became a bit more ruthless and liberal with their use of the force as the wars went on though the jedi council drew a line in the sand when it came to using the force for sheer cruelty and force crush pertaining to living things falls within this category however it should be noted that both jedi councilmaster mace windu as well as anakin skywalker used force crush during the

clone wars number six force plague as you'll notice with these first few many of these have light side variants that can be quickly exploited and turned towards the dark this ability in particular is a slippery slope if the user is not in complete control of what they are doing force plague starts as something called force slow which is not the same force though as you might have seen jedi such as calcustus use this ability does not have anything to do with slowing a fast-moving object but rather slowing another being's very mind it is a mild

ability that allows a jedi to simply cause their opponent's mind and body to slow down which then leaves them vulnerable to be incapacitated in a quick harmless and effective way where this ability starts to become problematic as if the jedi doesn't stop here and the ability becomes force affliction affliction worked much like a fast-acting poison quickly debilitating any given target the effects of force affliction worsen over time and may cause death that the user is strong enough in the force this ability may land a jedi knight or master in hot water but not entirely out

of the order so long as the creature did not die by its use force plague though is where the line is drawn and a knight will be severely punished and likely stripped of all ranks plague worked like a fast-acting poison horribly debilitating its victims the effects of plague continue to worsen over time plague could cause incredible pain and even if the afflicted creature survived they would likely be permanently disabled from this power at number 5 we have force lightning an obvious choice for obvious reasons but this one and the one after it on this list

have a very specific caveat to them some jedi masters are allowed to practice a variant of forced lightning under sharp supervision this ability is known as force judgment or later perfected into emerald lightning emerald lightning was an ability made popular by jedi master plo using one's heightened belief in righteous justice one can use the life side of the force to manifest a non-lethal burst of lightning that would more so stun an opponent or act as a sort of taser just dropping them for the time being until they could be bound and arrested obviously forced lightning

will land you a spotted jedi court where you have decided to focus all of your anger and hatred against another person to intentionally torture them to death nothing is more against the jedi code than this variant of force lightning its truest variant in fact number four more shiro one of the only abilities on this list that is not inherently dark in nature but could quickly be turned towards dark purposes is more cheero frequencies of the channel will recognize this as being the signature ability of jedi master yaddle and yaddle may in fact be the only

member of the jedi order permitted to use such an ability morechiro is the ability to slow the functions of an entire body to the point of putting it into a mild catatonic state or even long-term suspended animation it is completely off limits for knights to use this ability as an untrained user could accidentally but very easily stop the heart of a being from beating at number 3 we have mind domination the second most recognizable ability to even the common people of the galaxy is the jedi mind trick it is famous and one of the reasons

why many people somewhat fear and mistrust the jedi the jedi council is very diligent to ensure that the mind trick is only used in moderation and not abused by any of their ranks it is a tricky process as the ability is open for any jedi to use even padawans however padawans are only ever able to use the ability under their master supervision as they might abuse it once they learn of its true power over the weak minded the self-imposed weaknesses of the mind trick is that it can only be used against those who lack sufficient

mental fortitude and even then the mind trick can only be used once or twice against the same person as once the effects wear off they will know they have been mind tricked however there exists a more aggressive form of this power and is only utilized by the sith this is known as mind domination sith such as darth sidious and darth plagueis has used mind control to their benefit on more than one occasion as the name suggests this ability allows a force user to assert their will over another and completely eclipse any form of free will

the mind trick by contrast is more of a gentle persuasion technique than simply using the force to open another's mind to suggestion those who are strong thinkers can reject these suggestions and break the connection however mind domination breaks their will completely and enslaves the victim to the will of the force user doing any form of mind control is a very quick way to actually be locked up by the jedi and is strictly forbidden number two force fear force fear also known as force insanity memory walk or torture by chagrin is another mind-altering force ability the

jedi strive to ensure that their connection to the forces never used to abuse others in their own space even if it is a criminal that they are interrogating or an opponent that they are facing it is the jedi way to give all the fair chance and a fair trial even in battle for sphere nullifies this in a very sinister way though this ability invades the victim's mind with dark energies horrific images or by forcing the victim to relive their worst pains and moments over and over again until their mind completely shatters causing them to go

utterly insane these effects are usually permanent and require a team of skilled jedi counselors to restore someone's mind after it has been broken with this ability it is a cruel and unfair ability that puts any force user to shame when they decide to use it sith of course do not care and will feed off of the resulting suffering from this ability and finally the number one forbidden forcibility is known as deadly sight outlawed by grand master fei coven herself deadly sight is noted as one of the rarest force abilities to exist even by the standards

of the sith deadly sight is the ability that allows a user to harness intense hatred and fury into a focused glare onto a victim as long as the victim is within their users range of vision deadly sight has been known to blister skin and even vaporize entire extremities this ability literally allows one to kill someone slowly and painfully just by looking upon them luckily for the galaxy it is one of if not the rarest force ability to ever crop up in history but if a jedi is found to have been born with this ability they

are extensively lectured never to use it under any circumstances no matter what though i can't help but wonder if someone is born with this innate ability to use deadly sight as a jedi could there be a light side focus for this just for a moment i would like to break down the properties of deadly sight and propose that there could actually be a good use for it like some forcibilities such as battle meditation a user has been born with the innate power to touch this specific ability and if battle meditation can be used for either

the light or darkened purpose what if deadly sight could as well using the loophole established by plokun when describing force lightning and creating force judgment where they actually instigate the power with another emotion and could use it to maybe burn away their ropes or binding should they ever be captured but the ability allows the user to focus an intense beam of pure force energy straight from their eyes what if a jedi with deadly sight could use it to slowly force heal someone just by looking at them just a thought but anyway my friends what do

you think of our list and which one do you agree that the jedi should keep banned and which ones do you think that they should be allowed to use more widespread let us know your thoughts down below and as always students of the force thank you so much for watching may the force be with you and i will hopefully see you in the next video
