[QUOTE="Mordane76, post: 2141190, member: 7172"] Mechanically, yes, DSP don't mean a lot for non-Force users... but to borrow a phrase - "By their actions, you will know them." It's not a mechanical concern, per se, but one of dramatics and character development from a non-numbers standpoint. Violence, hatred, and vengeance serve only to feed one another and themselves; once the original focus of the emotion is gone (should your character actually manage to find and kill everyone he feels is responsible), he will likely have nothing left to live for but this anger, hatred, and vengeance, and as the story progresses it becomes easier and easier to hold other periphery or superior Jedi responsible for the actions of the ones he originally targeted by association and chain of command. As he falls deeper into his vengeance, it will become harder to hide it from others. To feed his passion, he must find ways to expand his scope. To hunt the 'righteous,' he becomes base and wicked... I see lots of potential for deep undertones in this plotline. Now I just need to finish re-reading the nuts and bolts, and start thinking about a starting point, but that's partially dictated from you... :D [/QUOTE]
