If successful in activating the power, the Jedi manifests a shield of energy around their body. The strength of the shield is the Jedi's ALTER score (Instead of STRENGTH), plus a number of pips according to the following chart.
Pips vs. Difficulty
3 - Moderate
5 - Difficult
7 - Very Difficult
9 - Heroic
+2 - +5 DC beyond Heroic
When a Jedi reaches a particular level of skill in other areas of The Force, the use of Lesser Force Shield also becomes enhanced as follows: 4D in ALTER adds +1D Physical protection. 5D in Absorb/Dissipate Energy adds +1D energy protection. 5D in Telekinesis allows the shield to protect against or contain gasses and vapor.
Method 1. "Shell"
Counts as armor. Protection pips can be divided up over physical or energy. Cannot exceed 3D protection vs either form. Effective against lightsabers. May reallocate protection once per round without penalty. Requires focus to maintain, but does not cause focus penalties.
Method 2. "Hemisphere"
Roll CONTROL to determine the size of the shield. Divide result by 5, that is how many additional people can be protected in relative size. Protection pips can be divided up over physical or energy, and Double protection pip values. Requires ALL focus, no other powers may be raised. 1/2 Move.
