10 Force Groups In Star Wars (& How They"re Different To Jedi & Sith)

:0:0

The Star Wars saga chronicles the fight between the Jedi and the Sith, but other Force groups played an important role and set themselves apart from both orders. Some of these Force groups appeared or were referenced in the Star Wars movies, while others debuted through different mediums, especially the TV shows. Many Force groups predate the Jedi Order, directly influencing its creation just as the Jedi and Sith would inspire other Force wielders. Without these Force groups and their differences from the Jedi and the Sith, the Star Wars timeline may have been shaped in a very different manner.
These Force groups can also shape the future of the Star Wars timeline. Rey's New Jedi Order movie will follow her efforts to rebuild the Jedi, and if she learns from the original Jedi texts, then she could learn from the group that inspired the Jedi. Kylo Ren also set himself apart from the Jedi or the Sith, implying that future Star Wars heroes and villains can learn from other light and dark side groups, respectively. 10 Force groups in Star Wars canon represent the variety of Force practices and philosophies that break away from both the Jedi and the Sith.
10 The Nightsisters

The Nightsisters of Dathomir were a matriarchal society of witches that used the Force to perform magic, something the Jedi viewed as merely an illusion. Count Dooku's apprentice, Asajj Ventress, was born a Nightsister and returned to her people after Dooku betrayed her. Dooku later sent General Grievous to wipe out the Nightsisters, and eventually, a young Nightsister named Merrin was the only survivor. Unlike Jedi and the Sith Force abilities, Nightsisters' magic manifested as a green mist when used on an opponent. The Nightsisters also remained loyal to each other, refusing to get involved in galactic affairs as the Jedi and Sith did.
