Force Born

This is a special ability that can be added to any template
A force born is a child of the force, much like Anakin Skywalker

(Light) A Light Side Force Born recive 2 aditional forcepoints
they also get an automatic +2 to any checks revolving around healing others
They also get a +2 bonus to resist any force power used by a dark side force user
with with Alter less than 4D
Against dark side force users with Alter above 4D this bonus is reduced to +1

(Dark) A Dark Side Force Born recive 1 addtional Darkside point as well as one addtional force point.
The Dark Side Force Born can never cleanse away his "added" darkside point, and will thus always have
at least 1 Darkside Point, this in turn will forbid the force used a handful of exclusively light side
powers.
The Dark Side Force born does not recive a resistance bonus against light side force use, but he does gain
a +1 to damage against any light side force user.
In addition the Dark Side Force Born has a bigger risk of turning to the darkside.
All DSPs count as 1 higher...meaning that when a force user normally is fully turned to the darkside with 6 DSPs
the Dark Side Born is currupted and fallen completely at "only" 5 DSP, becuse of his additional 1DSP that
he can never loose.

Ok, if I'm making a Jedi, why don't I always want this?

That was going to be my question. What if any, are the downsides to this??

I concur. To add this to a template, there should be a cost, like at least losing 2D in starting skill dice.

Maybe a caveat on being Force Born (although this would negate the Dark Side option) is that it's mechanically somehow easier to gain DS points and turn bad? I'm not sure how that would work exactly but it's the first thing to come to mind narratively.
