Living Force

The Living Force is the universal energy field that is generated by most organic lifeforms. It is the source of supernatural powers by certain religious or semi-religious orders, most notably the Jedi, the Sith, and priests of the Supreme Intelligence, Sharra, and K'ythri. The Living Force is sometimes considered or worshipped as a montheistic deity. Sometimes, the Living Force is considered to have a Light Side and a Dark Side.

Ancient laws from the old Shi'ar Empire and still in force in the current Intergalactic Empire permit Imperial authorities to conscript anyone with the ability to exercise supernatural powers to serve the Imperial government alongside the Imperial Navy and Imperial Stormtroopers. People with powers from the Living Force directly serving the Empire were drafted into the Imperial Inqiusitorius.
