Hive Tyrant, For Commander, Farseer, v.s. FF7 crew, Spartans, and StarKiller

This sounds an AWFUL LOT like the killik hive mind/dark nest in star wars. Alot like it. and guess what, it did not affect the force. Jedi could still use the force against it, and could even use the force to counter it.

Tyranids actually inspired most of the other hive minds in fiction, so that there are paralels doesn't surprise me. That said, there are key differences. The Killiks don't sound like their hive mind actively messed with anyone's connection to the force. The hive mind does. The scale on which it's able to do so is pretty incredible.

I lol'd.

The only thing the Chaos Gods fear?

Star Gods/C'tan and (Possibly) Starchild Emperor (If that is actually canon and happens).

Or possibly Enslavers.

Starchild Emperor (If that is actually canon and happens).

Star Gods/C'tan and (Possibly)

The Hive mind is on a level with these beings, regardless. 😛

That's funny, I've never heard of them being afraid of the Hive Mind either.

K.

well to be honest if any said jedi would become a joiner, either by choice or by the will of Unu (thats the name of the hive mind)
then their ability to use the force would not lesson, but become astronomical because they would be sharing the force essence of all the being in the hive. There were some instances where the will of Unu would overpower the jedi and they could not use the Force, but if the jedi was strong enough he or she could over come Unu's will

The Tyranid Hivemind is also known for /killing/ people who try to use their power within it's range of influence, as well as cutting off their connection to that source.

Sephiroth blows up the Galaxy your hive is in. /thread.

SUPERNOVA FTW!

in that case then.....ok. bummer. as far as stripping a jedi of his power or connection to the force though. thats only happened 2 times to my knowledge. 1) the jedi counsel on Dantooine roughly 2000 yrs BBY stripped a Reven of her force connection, and a jedi named Jax Pavan kinda cut his own connection off from the force, but both cases regained the ability.

The force is not some conjurers trick or magic. It is everywhere, in all living things. Symbionts live inside blood cells. They mixed with Midi-chlorians allow someone to use the force. the higher midi count, the better you can control the force, or have access to more power.

so unless the hive mind can take midi-chlorians away from Galen then i don't see it stripping him of his power

upon reflection of my last statement that looks majorly geeky....i apologize

My actual argument: If it's possible for Jedi to cut off one another's connection to the force, it shoudl also be possible for the hive mind, This is also temporary, once they're not longer within range of it's influence they are no longer effected.

i read that...interesting.

As for your argument, i don't know exactly how the jedi were able to strip the force from Revan, that is a big debate in star wars world, i don't have evidence to suggest that only force users could do it to other force users. While that is my theory, i have no evidence to back it up, and it could very well be possible for the hive that you speak of to have that effect.

With the evidence brought forth, i would say that yes the hive mind would possibly affect Galen to the point that his ability to use the force would diminish, but not go away completely. It would diminish to the point that his reliance on it would be his downfall when it would become stripped of him. therefore, the hive wins.

i love to talk about star wars, more topics would be interesting. the star wars versus forum is sad....

Try factpile, it's full of star warsiness.

factpile.com?

Yes. you'll learn a lot about 40K there, too. 😛

yeh i checked out some of their star wars verses and i might sign up. didn't seem to be a lot of knowledge going around, just preferences. and yes i did see references to 40k......might i ask what it is?

A table top wargame, and one of the most over-powered verses evar. It's win.
