      The Kotor games have a nice system where the darker you choices get the paler your skin and yellower your eyes the phrase Psychotic urges is uttered a lot, which is the practical and simple way to show that attuning yourself to either side has consequences.

      Yellow eyes, pale skin dried skin, white hair and a thinned figure are usual signs of dark side influence, but you must first surrender yourself to darkness, then understand it and finally accepting it.

      A great conversation in the Plagueis book reads:

      Sidious watched the last of the brush fires burn out, then said, “Will Ieventually be physically transformed?”

      “Into some aged, pale-skinned, raspy-voiced, yellow-eyed monster, youmean. Such as the one you see before you.” Plagueis gestured to himself,then lowered himself to the ground. “Surely you are acquainted with the lore: King Ommin of Onderon, Darths Sion and Nihilus. But whether it will happen to you, I can’t say. Know this, though, Sidious, that the power of the dark side does not debilitate the practitioner as much as itdebilitates those who lack it.” He grinned with evil purpose. “The power ofthe dark side is an illness no true Sith would wish to be cured of.”

        Personally i enjoy the Plagueis version, where Midi-chlorians are translators of a sentient beings force capability, and how his probing of the force led to the conception of Anakin.

        Manipulating and accepting the flow of the force allows for the power to increment one’s physical and mental capacities for an indefinite amount of time, a certain evaluation can be through midi-chlorian count, but the jedi increase their power once they become spirits and sith increase their power with rituals, and in the case of Tenebrous and Plagueis, use science to understand the organelles and then increasing the amount they have.

        Anakin was be the source of Luke and Leia’s high count and then Padme could be a lowerer, however Plagueis’ parents had a lower count than he did not to mention the amount of parents that didn’t reach a third of their children’s amount or even possessing the halves that would logically have produced the prodigy, thus is not a matter of common mathematics.

        I would say that akin to the TF’s entry quiz one would need a minimun amount to be even able to learn a way to increase it, unless a third party managed to do it for them.

        As for inheritance, we can look at genetic percentages, which provide the chances a child will inherit their parents characteristics.
