Deflect Energy

Rather than absorbing or dissipating the energy from a blaster bolt, the Jedi can attempt to deflect the blaster bolt with his or her bare hand. With this power, which is a part of the tutaminis family of Force powers, the Jedi can do barehanded what the Jedi would normally be able to do with a lightsaber — deflect and possibly redirect blaster fire. A successful roll means the Jedi suffers no damage from the blaster bolt. If the Jedi wishes to redirect the blaster bolt back to the source, he or she must make a control roll against a difficulty that's established by the target's dodge or the distance to the target. The Jedi can also use this power to catch the energy blade of an opponent's lightsaber as a reflex reaction. Again, a successful roll means no damage to the user.
