One of these can be Constitution, and so if your Constitution is a 6 or lower, you can potentially go kaput.(Now, I'm pretty sure the rule about not being able to have an ability score of less than 3 would kick in here, so your character wouldn't actually die, but I prefer to think that your character was trying to master the Force so hard that their brain exploded!)</blockquote>
