Force Prodigy*
*This class was formerly called Force Adept in the RCR version of the Star Wars RPG from Wizards of the Coast. It was cut before the final version of the Saga Edition Core Rulebook went to print. The name was changed to avoid confusion with the Prestige Class of the same name.
Class Summery
While many throughout the galaxy feel the gentle ebb and flow of The Force, very few find the will to dedicate themselves fully to its call. Even the Jedi and Sith, the most renowned practitioners of the ways of The Force, often depend and study the more martial skills sometimes losing sight of the more subtle aspects of the Living Force.
Force Prodigies are exceptionally rare, and dedicate a devotion to The Force greater than nearly every other being in the galaxy. They live and die by the will of The Force, bringing themselves ever closer to a complete understanding of its will and guidance.
Examples of Force Prodigies in Star Wars
