Merge Senses, a Force power rooted in the Sense abilities, enabled a Force-user to unite their sensory input with that of another being, typically an animal or something possessing limited cognitive function. The Force-user gained the capability to experience the environment through the creature's perceptions; they could see what it saw, hear what it heard, smell what it smelled, and feel what it felt. Direct control over the creature was not granted, but the Force-user could guide its actions through gentle suggestions and requests. Should the Force-user attempt to compel the creature to act against its instincts or in a perilous manner, the creature would usually disregard the command, unless the Force-user exerted significant mental pressure. While merged, the Force-user's physical body remained still, its own senses deactivated. Disconnecting from the merge required a delicate approach, although the connection would be severed if the host creature sustained injury or perished. T'laerean Larn, a Sullustan, acquired this power from the Wise Man of Kooroo on the planet Gelgelar, and successfully established a sensory link with a reeho.
