Force abilities
Jedi Master Yoda holds a senatorial platform aloft in Revenge of the Sith.
The Force can enhance natural physical and mental abilities, including strength (such as during a "Force jump" or to slow a fall from an otherwise dangerous height) and accuracy (as when Luke Skywalker was able to launch proton torpedoes into a two-meter-wide thermal exhaust port on the Death Star in A New Hope). A number of other force powers are demonstrated in the film series including telekinesis, telepathy, enhanced empathy and precognition. The Jedi were also able to influence and control the minds of others by making use of the Jedi mind trick. The Sith can sometimes use the Force to create harmful energy to attack others. Some use an ability called Force Lightning which is a lightning-like attack using the Force (as demonstrated by Emperor Palpatine in Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi and Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith and Count Dooku in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones). The Force also gives enhanced skills in lightsaber combat.
The term "Force power" originated in the Star Wars Roleplaying Game, by West End Games. Later, it was used in Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II, where they could be gained via a system of Force "points". The names are often preceded by Force.... For example, Grip is mostly known as Force Grip.
Within the Star Wars expanded universe, a number of other powers have been demonstrated, such as the ability to heal or drain the life-force of others, increase resistance to attack, dissipate energy attacks and warp space.
There is also force "shatter point".
This ability is used to manipulate the force.
