Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

Mind tricks, Mind-touch, or mind control, refer to a spectrum of Force powers which influenced the thoughts of sentient creatures, most commonly used to coerce into agreement by suggestion through voice manipulation, or to cause one to reveal information. This allowed its practitioners to resolve matters in a non-violent way. It could also be used to appeal to a sensory impression for distraction or cause friendly fire among enemies.
