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

Sever Force was a non-lethal Force power by which a being's connection to the Force was temporarily interrupted or blocked from them with a wall of light side energy afflicting the targets mind. According to the ancient Jedi scholar Odan-Urr, severing an individual's Force connection was the most powerful attack a Jedi could perform.

Individuals could also withdraw from their connection with the Force by themselves involuntarily. Ben Skywalker was intimidated by the presence of Abeloth while living at Shelter as a child and found himself scared of the Force for years afterward. Darth Plagueis discovered that a Force-sensitive person's capacity to channel the Force could also be inhibited by directly destroying some amount of their midi-chlorians.
