What Nihilus does is not Force Sever. It is something entirely different and more lethal. Force Sever doesn't wound the force itself. It does not cause such incredulous destruction that the Force is simply absent. Force Sever doesn't cause a crapton of hunger. The Jedi never speak of Force Sever it terms of it being a mass-killing device. They only speak of it in terms of stripping the ability to use the force. The removal of "excess" power and connection. All life is connected to the Force, if what you suggested was how Sever worked and what it did, Ulic would have died. We have seen Force Sever be used upon Jedi before, such as what happened to Ulic, and he damn sure survived it. What Sever seems to do is bring down someones connection to the force to 'mortal' levels to the point where they are no more directed and guided and empowered by the force than Han or Jango was.
So..
1. You suggestion that Nihilus' power is Sever is incorrect due to Sever not being lethal, least of all on such a magnitude.
2. Whether or not they could resist Force Sever is irrelevant.
3. Whether or not they could resist Force Sever at all is unproven. Especially if it is a Lightside Technique, which would, AFAIK, render it unusable to Fapatine.
4. Nihilus does something entirely unique to him. It is neither truly a Drain as we understand it, or the sever technique. It is something worse. Far worse. Likley something that scared the shit out of Bane himself. For some strange reason, I doubt that Kreia was using Hyperbole when she described Nihilus as the eventual death of all life, as well as the force. Sure, she wanted to kill the force, but not at that expense.
4. You are being obstinate. You are trolling. Either disprove my claims by demolishing them or acknowledge them or be reported.
