How's about the energy OF the bow comes from being activated (like some novels show jedi using the force to activate their lightsabers) by the night sisters..


You mean that the bow is not usable at all without use of Force? I'm not sure about that, lightsabers (most of them) are usable without knowing the Force (although they are far more effective in hands of Jedi).
Without spell/force use bow is like blaster carbine, only more cumbersome and with few hundred shots.

I'm still open to arguments, because I'm not sure.

That's what i was saying. Check out Crystal star. The main baddie has as part of his 'testing for jedi hood' in his dark jedi order, having his padawan wanna be's turning on a lightsaber, using just the force. If they have force powers, it activates. If not, it does not turn on.

So someone would need say 2d in one force power (i'm leaning to alter) to even activate the bow.

Similar to an internal switch that they'd have to use TK to turn on?

Not sure if it was an internal switch needing TK or not, but i do remember non force users could do nothing with it..

I'm pretty sure the internal switch thing (which one uses the Force to turn on) is detailed in the lightsaber rules (probably in Tales of the Jedi).
