Ive been throwing together sheets for a knight level convention game based around non jedi force users.

So far I have a Taipani Duelist with social skills,

An Ewok Shaman with healing powers, animal minions and a collection of drugs and poisons

A Dathomir Nightsister with glamour, Binding, and lightning, but poor aim.

A gand Findsman with Intuitive Shot, seek and forsee.

An unarmed monk with Talisman of Iron Fists, and Enhance

A Jensarii Sentinal with customized armor and a training saber.

And a Gank "Phreaker" (my own creation) who is an artisan with cybergear.

What else can I add to bring the character choices up to 8 or 9? Are there any clear gaps in the yeams capability?

An Aang-tii Monk acolyte with space-folding. Would need some new powers, of course.

A Baran-Do Sage with Forsee.

A Jedi-hating Zeison Sha member with Sense up to boosting dice in attacks.

A Falanasii scout with stealth powers.

It depends on if you feel like making a new power, or two, and if you accept Disney killing so much of the lore. If you accept Jacen Solo, he went and found so many other Force traditions, and some of them, all of the above are among them, are rather cool, in their own ways.

Tell me more about the Falanasii Scout. It seems the most mechanically and thematically distinct from the other concepts I have.

The Falanasii don't use the Force like the Jedi use it, but use a form known as the White Current. Mostly female, similar to the Witches of Dathomir though male members are not unheard of, they have no ability with Move but have a Force Immersion ability that hides the user from most forms of detection including scanners, eyeballs, and Force Senses. They also have impressive Illusion creation abilities. Typically pacifistic and non-violent, they focus on the mental aspects of the Force

Not familiar with this one. Are you referring to the Tapani saber rakes? Last I checke dthat wasn't a force tradition so much as a bunch of spoiled rich kids pretending to be lightsaber wielding Shakespeare characters... No force training, experience, or sensitivity required....

A Trandoshan Herald of the Scorekeeper with Seek Misdirect and Sense

Hes the only one in the party with no force powers. FR1 only qualifies him for Makashi style and Sum Djin.

So, the Falassi is a Misdirect specialist Shadow with the "force cant see me" talent, possibly with Sence, battlemind and Influence. The backup face.

Misdirect specialist Shadow with Sense and maybe Influence if it was used to hide, not persuade. Not really a backup face in my mind.

A list of Fallanassi powers: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Fallanassi_Powers

Another non-Jedi Force tradition: the Witches of Dathomir from the EU (Courtship of Princess Leia), not TCW. They use the Force but they chant as if they were casting a spell and also rode Rancors.

Already have nightsisters on the list.

Ranor riding take FR6, or 4 if the gm lets you ride a baby. Which was a build I considered for the ewok (only as an eagle-rider) but getting FR4 at knight level leaves you with no force powers to spend it on.

Yes you have Nightsisters but not the Witches... they are two distinct groups. Nightsisters were the one exiled for usage of the Dark Side. The Witches have a rule: "Never concede to evil."

Kinda hard to have both in the same adventuring party. Too much history there, I think.

Since I mentioned the Falanaasi, I'll also mention that they are stupid-heavy isolationists, and use most to all of their stealth and illusion-based oomph to hide themselves, and their homes, from outsiders, for fear that their culture, and way of life, will be lost or contaminated. They are rarely seen, and few know that they even exist, as a group. They are frequently on the move, always below the radar of outsiders, and they almost never pass on their traditions to others; I haven't read the books where Jacen, Luke, and Ben, in two separate groups and times, manage to locate, contact, and arrange for instruction, but I do know it wasn't easy. Helped Jacen later, when he went all emo and...um spoilers!

It is a rather nifty group, and concept, far apart from "the Force and the Jedi (and Sith)" that is our primary exposure to the practice in Star Wars, and it would be even more so if it wasn't built to be so hard to acquire. Based on stuff I've read in other books of mine, it's easier to approach the Aang-tii, and learn flow-walking, which can include ridiculous Force stunts like phasing, teleporting, and even mental time-travel (they can move whole ships through space like the navigators in Dune do, without the Spice-addiction), than it might be to learn that there are Falaanasi, find them, and get them to teach you how to be a super-scout. Still, like the Witches, the Sorcerers of Tund, and a few others, it is rather fun to see a group who uses the same source, but perceives it in a totally different way, and who might not be so caught up in "the light side and the dark side", as the Jedi and the Sith are.

You could barrow from SW TOR and take a look at the Voss or the Revanites .

My proble with the spacefolders is that they basically rediscovered the Rakata Force-hyperdrive, without an actual hyperdrive for the corelians and duros to reinvent. Their powers just dont fit right in star wars lore.

It's probably why they aren't used as much beyond a weird Deus Ex Machina in the Thrawn Duology. Like Luke Skywalker the Aing-Tii monks are just plain broken with their spacefolding abilities.

Falassi Dark Current Exile.

Darkside disciple of the white current who was kickeed out of the group; and is now making his own way in the galaxy.

Sound like a reasonable explanation for a falassi scout?

I'd lose the Dark Side part of it. Plenty of other reasons to being kicked rather than going Dark.

Gunslinger, instead of a lightsaber he constructs a custom blaster, and can ricochet the shots

Acrobat, enhancements for abilities and juggling with Telekinetics
