Even those who don’t believe in the Force and aren’t particularly attuned to its flow can call upon the Force without understanding exactly what they are doing. When a stroke of luck occurs, or fate seems to be on your side and helps you accomplish a difficult objective, it could be the Force coming to your aid. In game terms, the expenditure of Force points by non-Force-using characters represents this unconscious, tenuous connection to the Force that all living things share. When a Force-using character calls on the Force this way, he or she knows exactly what’s happening.
The most prominent and well-known Force-users in the galaxy are the Jedi. However, the Jedi are not the only ones who have learned to manipulate the Force. Other Force-users sometimes attribute their abilities to sources other than the Force, such as magic or gods, but they are all using the energy to manipulate the world around them. In game terms, anyone with the Force Sensitivity feat has the ability to master the Use the Force skill and learn Force powers, though many of these beings will never go down this particular path.
Other Force-using traditions include dark side cults (such as the Sith), and obscure, isolated sects such as the Witches of Dathomir and the Sorcerers of Tund. Some know the Force for what it is but approach its use in a different way from the Jedi. Others know the Force by a different name. Either way, it remains the mystic energy that binds the galaxy together and gives Force-users their powers.
Membership: The conditions for being considered a member of a given Force tradition are outlined in the description. A character may be a member of more than one Force tradition, but this is uncommon.
Knights of the Old Republic Campaign Guide, page 103.
The mysteries and manipulations of the Force have never been solely the province of the Jedi and Sith. These two groups dominate the galactic stage for thousands of years, but many worlds and cultures establish their own traditions based on their own cultures and understanding of the Force. Unlike the Jedi and Sith, these traditions rarely seek dominance of all Force teaching.
In the Knights of the Old Republic era, most Jedi view non-Jedi traditions as misguided at best, or downright threatening if the tradition embraces the dark side. As always, dark side threats are sought out and eliminated where possible. Other traditions are tolerated, even embraced, especially when the Jedi believe they can learn something new. However, the Jedi still attempt to convert practitioners of these other traditions to the Jedi Order.
The Sith, on the other hand, attempt to dominate all other traditions. Exactly how they view a specific tradition depends on the strength of the Sith. When the Sith number in the thousands, such as during the Sith wars, they attempt to eradicate all other traditions. They corrupt and convert those open to their teachings, and eliminate all others. When the Sith numbers are reduced, or are operating under Darth Bane’s rule of two, they rarely take on another tradition directly. However, they might still attempt to recruit apprentices from these traditions.
In the Knights of the Old Republic era, many more traditions are operating throughout the galaxy than in the classic era. Practitioners of these traditions are most likely found on their homeworlds, or within their home cultures. However, individual practitioners might travel to other worlds on occasion.
