- Image Source: X
- Canon Link: N/A
- Permissions: None
- Primary Source: Mist-Weavers Sever Force Force Suppression Imbue Item Wall of Light
- Manufacturer: New Jedi Order
- Affiliation: Galactic Alliance
- Market Status: Closed-Market
- Model: N/A
- Modularity: No
- Production: Minor. Usable by the SIA, New Jedi Order, GADF Strike Teams and Specialised Correctional Facilities within Galactic Alliance space.
- Material: Force-spun silk.
- Made of highly resilient, self healing Force-spun silk.
- Capable of restraining even normally intangible entities
- Virtually impossible to remove without the assistance of a Jedi who has access to specialised techniques.
- Is fully effective either wrapping around an individual's limbs rendering them immobile, or simply wrapped around one's wrist or ankle.
- Allowing a Dark Side Adept to go 'Cold Turkey' from using the Force aids in rehabilitation.
- As it is solid matter forged from the Force. Exposure to Null Force zones does not disable its functions.
- Any attempts to somehow circumvent this will fail as the attached binding will feed off any excess Force energy from the user. Explosive use of Force energy will cause the bindings to grow in size and bind the prisoner even further.
- Due to the esoteric techniques involved in its creation, it is practically impossible to reverse-engineer.
- Cuts the Force Adept off from using the Dark Side of the Force.
- The construction process is time consuming and rather draining. While a great amount can be produced with a capable team. It is not something that can be done on the fly.
- For extended use. The binings must be attuned to the specific force signature of the individual it is bound to.
- Ineffective at holding Jedi.
- Exceptionally powerful Force Adepts require greater amounts of binding.
- The production and distribution of the bindings are heavily regulated and controlled. It is typically custom made.
Ever since returning to the Galactic Stage, the humane imprisonment and rehabilitation of Sith had always been an issue at the forefront of Aaran Tafo's mind. It was not until he received instruction from an ancient Mist-Weaver a bolt of inspiration struck him. It was difficult to properly deal with demigods capable of impossible feats. The only solutions were drugging, the use of innocent animals or full body bindings for extended periods of time.
So it was, at the discovery of Force-spun silk. Material that could feed off the Force itself to grow and repair itself. Aaran got to work on his newest passion project. Using esoteric methods and much trail and error. He finally created the Penance Bindings. The perfect solution to imprisoning Force Adepts while allowing them to retain their dignity.
Of course the actual method of construction is one of the Warden of Peace's best kept secrets. The only individuals allowed to access the Holocron that contains the information are those he vets personally. Knowing how dangerous it could be if this material fell into the wrong hands, he ensured to that all construction was heavily regulated and controlled. With the construction of each batch carefully monitored by him and a select team of Jedi Artisans.
