A Jedi begins play with a Force rating of 1

A Jedi cannot ignore the binding principle that connects the galaxy, especially at a time of war. While a civilian may not see any utility in silent contemplation of the Force, a Master understands that wisdom can come from anywhere and everywhere. Although the title of “Master” requires the approval of the Jedi Council, this specialization covers overall wisdom, self-reflection, and mastery of the Force. A true Jedi Master requires no formal title. The Force recognizes their ability.

A master's skills reflect a Master’s inner control and search for knowledge and self-understanding. They also represent a Master’s responsibility to teach both Jedi and non-Jedi how to understand themselves and act in accordance with that knowledge. Masters meditate, instruct formally in classrooms or informally in conversation, and seek out ancient texts.

In times of war, Jedi Masters serve an even greater purpose in bringing inner peace and hope to others. Jedi who have seen the horrors of war, who doubt their purpose and themselves, can go to a Master for guidance, to re-center themselves and regain perspective.

By sensing disturbances in the Force, Masters can locate areas of conflict and anguish and advise Jedi on the field of an otherwise unknown trouble. They can also sense agents of the dark side of the Force and seek them out, countering their effects on the galaxy. They continue to seek out lost knowledge, not only of the Jedi’s history but of the galaxy’s. One can never discount how an obscure item of knowledge can provide a greater wisdom, as all things are connected by the Force.

Lest other Jedi fall into the trap of treating the Force as a tool—or worse, a weapon of war—Masters must remind them of the central promise of the Force: its ability to connect and understand all life. The pursuit of this understanding, the peaceful exploration of the galaxy, and the steady journey toward self-realization are central to the Jedi Order’s core principles. Masters remind the warriors in the Jedi ranks that they fight in spite of their quest for peace, not because of it.

Masters guide other Jedi, especially if they suffer from anger or self-doubt. Masters have wisdom that lets them see the bigger picture, one greater than the Clone Wars or the Republic. Danger lies in forgetting about I the smaller picture. The galaxy is made up of individuals, single points of light in the darkness, and to assume one individual is unimportant to the whole of the galaxy is the greatest hubris.
