Force Domain


PVP FREQUENCY: Uncommon/rare
CONCENTRATION: Very High
ALIGNMENT: Neutral (easier for dark sider users)
STAMINA DRAIN: High

Base Description
Force Domain is an ability that allows a force user to trap a single person. The force user draws in as much of the force they can, and imbues the surrounding area with it creating a barrier that encapsulates themselves and their opponent. The barrier can be no longer than 20 meters long or 20 meters high, but it takes a lot of strength to make the barrier reach that size. Inside the barrier, the force user that creates the barrier gains a boost in their force abilities - power and stamina specifically (I know this isn't how it works, but to give a more concrete example. Lets say someone can use force lightning 3 times, a boost could allow them to use it 5-6 times depending on how much of a boost they receive. More later.) The barrier is white and can be visible from the outside; outsiders can also break the barrier. The opponent (the one trapped in the barrier) can also create their own domain inside, but if it is weaker than the original domain it will fail. If it succeeds, the original domain is broken and is replaced by the newer one. The opponent trapped can also break out of the domain using the force if they are strong enough. The domain can also be broken if the original creator of the domain is defeated.

Advanced Properties
The boost in power the user gets depends on how they create their barrier. If the user wants a significant boost in power, then their domain must become very weak (easy to break out of). If the user really wants to trap the opponent, they must make their domain very strong, however, they will gain less of a boost.
Bigger boost = Weaker barrier strength
Stronger barrier strength = smaller boost
Dark side users will be able to learn this ability much easier since the whole premise of the ability is to lock yourself and your opponent in a 1v1.

If someone is right next to the opponent (the person being trapped), they will be forced outwards. Only two people can be in a domain at a single time, the domain creator and the person being trapped.

The domain can be broken by anything that can cause damage, however, some things will be more effective than others. The force is the most effective method (assuming someone isn't firing a planet destroyinglaser beam at the domain).

Strengths
1. Give yourself the ability to trap someone / boost your power
2. Ability to single out a specific target without much worry of outside help

Weaknesses
1. The domain can be broken
2. The person who creates the domain must be trapped in it as well
3. Level of boost is depending on barrier strength. If a user focuses all their energy on the strength of the barrier, then they could also receive no boost.
4. Very difficult to master
5. The opponent can still create their own domain, which could potentially nullify your own.
6. Limited time usage - 5 minutes (For simplicity, the one who creates the domain can post up to 5 times before the domain is broken.)

Difficulty
This force power can only be learned by any Jedi Master/Sith Lord level or stronger characters. Council members for both Jedi and Sith can use this ability in combat more way more effectively, while a master/lord will most likely use it as a last effort.

Intent
Just another interesting ability to add to PvP. A power that doesn't necessarily do much on its own and is dependent on the user. Also can give a bigger dynamic in battle, where a user's domain could be their final trump card. A good way to cancel out being ganged up on if you are strong enough. Also to add more to the arsenal of higher level force users.

Important Clarifying Note: This ability is based on the domain expansion from the anime: Jujutsu Kaisen. In the anime it is said that all abilities will automatically hit their target if they are in a domain. This aspect does NOT apply to this force power, as that would be way too over the top. Also in the anime, the domain is generally a reflection on the character's abilities. This aspect is also not included in this force power. For this one, the domain simply creates a white barrier around you and the opponent.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to reject this one. Besides not being particularly in keeping with Star Wars powers, it doesn't really fit with our rules about Force powers either. It traps someone else while also empowering yourself. As you mention, it's a final trump card and almost feels like the capstone perks we used to have except that those weren't even allowed to be PvP-centric
