Also referred to as a "Force choke". Sometimes, a villain will demonstrate their power by having another character's life in their literal hands, via a Neck Lift. Sometimes, a villain will demonstrate a lot more power by doing this with no visible effort, by doing it with the mind. That's this trope. Characters are frequently terrified and intimidated (not unduly so) by having a character with psychic powers, a Hair-Trigger Temper, and being the target of that wrath. This trope is a great way to show that the villain could literally end another character's life with a thought, but doesn't. A sub-trope of Neck Lift and Supernatural Suffocation. Often accompanied by a Pstandard Psychic Pstance or Magical Gesture. A Death Glare is optional. |

Star Trek Online: A duty officer assignment available to Klingon Defense Force characters is titled "Experiment with Feasibility of Assassination Utilizing Telekinesis". Based on the required duty officers, this means experimenting with telekinetically strangling a prisoner. | |

Black Crusade gives us the Chaos variant; the Biomancy power adeptly named Last Breath. Instead of using telekinesis to close off the victim's wind pipe the Sorcerer in question causes the target's lungs to flood with a thick liquid that causes them to begin suffocating instantly. Like the above power, the user has no way to reverse the effect; its up to the victim to pass a Toughness test before they pass out and eventually die of oxygen deprivation. | |

Discussed in the Babylon 5 episode "Mind War". Talia's former mentor talks about a gentler form of this as an assassination method that leaves no evidence: simply telekinetically close off the carotid arteries to starve the brain of oxygen, then release the pressure after the target dies. That's if it was possible to get a relatively stable telekinetic that didn't have qualms about that sort of thing... | |

Rogue One: Vader initially spares Director Krennic after learning that Galen Erso provided information to the Rebels about the existence of the Death Star project, ordering him to clean up his mess. Krennic starts to get more confident and begins requesting things of Vader as the Sith Lord walks away, so Vader chokes him briefly to make a point. Rogue One also ups the ante from The Empire Strikes Back by establishing that not only does he not need to be in the same room as his target — Vader doesn't even need to look at his target. As long as he knows where you are, he can Force-choke you. As shown in the page image, Rogue One is the first time that Vader Force-chokes an actual enemy (here a Rebel soldier) in a Star Wars movie. Every other instance in the movies where the armored Vader Force-chokes someone, that someone is an Imperial. |

World of Warcraft: Baron Ashbury in Shadowfang Keep has the ability Asphyxiate, which holds the entire party off the ground and strangles them nearly to death with a contemptuous, "This is just too easy," but then he heals them so he can keep tormenting them. Death Knights also get a spell named Asphyxiate; it's just a 5-second stun with a special animation, however. |

Lifeforce (1985): The Space Girl, played by an incredibly hot Mathilda May, goes into a Full-Frontal Assault on the Space Center. A trio of hapless security guards attempt to stop her. The first one gets force choked into unconsciousness and the second one, continuing with the Star Wars references, is pretty much force-lighting'd out of the way. The last, older guard is scared out of his wits and does nothing as the Space Girl escapes the center into the night. | |

Strangely enough, the only one who goes to work in some form of covert operations isn't one of the superpowerful fliers, or the Invulnerable Man, or even the guy who can talk to the dead, which should be a means of getting all sorts of useful information.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Anakin, Asajj Ventress and Savage Opress all frequently resort to choking their opponents through the Force. Anakin mainly uses it when his loved ones are endangered. He also prefers it as a Jack Bauer Interrogation Technique, such as in "Brain Invaders" while questioning Poggle the Lesser, who proves to be immune to his Jedi Mind Trick. For Ventress, it seems more like a finishing and/or desperation attack, used only when she feels either confident with the outcome of the confrontation, or utterly outmatched. As for Savage, it's more-or-less his Signature Move — he kills more people this way than with his lightsaber. He's fine with the "normal" bare-handed Neck Snap as well. Dooku also uses the Force to choke his enemies a couple of times. "The Gungan General": Dooku kills Turk Falso by choking him with the Force after telekinetically manipulating him into shooting his co-conspirator. "Eminence": After Bo-Katan insults him, Maul starts to strangle her while giving a speech to Vizsla and the rest of the Death Watch about how beneficial an alliance between them would be. "The Lawless": Maul chokes Satine to torture Obi-Wan. Darth Sidious, upon arriving to Mandalore, off-handedly chokes two Death Watch commandos who try to stop him while walking past them. Later, he strangles another pair before entering a room. Becomes a plot-point in "The Jedi Who Knew Too Much", when someone Force-chokes Letta, the woman who bombed the Jedi Temple, to death while Ahsoka is the only one in her cell. Since the two were alone, and Letta's death is recorded on camera, Ahsoka is framed for the murder, and by extension for masterminding the bombing. In "The Lost One", Darth Sidious does this to Dooku from across the galaxy. |

General Hux has it done to him twice in The Last Jedi. First, Supreme Leader Snoke's disembodied holographic head grabs Hux by the neck and throws him around the bridge of his Star Destroyer for a little while to humiliate him after Hux fails to destroy the Resistance as it evacuates its base, losing a dreadnought to Resistance bombers in the process. Second, Hux tries to argue with Kylo Ren about Ren assuming the mantle of Supreme Leader after Snoke's death by lightsaber. Ren chokes him in mid-sentence as an Appeal to Force (ha!) and Hux submits. |

Dungeons & Dragons: The choke spell (from the 3.0 book Tome and Blood: A Guidebook to Wizards and Sorcerers) create a pair of invisible force hands that slowly strangles the target (as long as it's breathing and has a neck). The less powerful stolen breath (from Spell Compendium) just put the target in respiratory distress for a minute or less, although it has No Saving Throw. The spell telekinesis and the psionic power telekinetic maneuver can be used to perform a grapple, and a grapple can inflict damage (by twisting limbs or choking) as well as immobilizing. The damage may not be very high, but can be prolonged for a while and this can safely be done at a great range. |

Stargate SG-1: A telekinetic mutant created by Nirrti does this to her two Jaffa guards after discovering her duplicity. He then lifts her up and snaps her neck from half a room away. The Priors of the Ori sometimes do this to their enemies. Their Dark Messiah Adria is more direct about it, simply snapping a Jaffa's neck with her mind at one point. |

Star Wars: The Old Republic: This is a class ability specific to the Sith Warrior, who is in many ways patterned after Darth Vader. The Sith Inquisitor gets Force lightning instead. The animation lifts the target clear off the ground by their neck. During the Sith Warrior storyline on Hoth, in a parody of the Ozzel scene from The Empire Strikes Back Darth Baras Force-chokes one of his underlings on Hoth from (presumably) his office on Dromund Kaas as a penalty for being unable to being unable to stop Baras's enemy the Jedi Knight Xerender from breaking into their communications to troll him. Depending on player choices, the PC's Sith ally Lana Beniko can Force-choke several people starting with Rise of the Emperor. The one she's guaranteed to do is telekinetically Neck Lift a Knight of Zakuul during Chapter 4 of Knights of the Fallen Empire; the PC gets to decide whether to let her finish him or tell her to release him (whereupon he and his partner run for their lives). |

Darths & Droids: Being as it is a parody of the Star Wars films, naturally it features this. As it turns out, the reason the "Peace Moon" takes over two decades to build is because Vader keeps force-choking people for incompetence. Heck, the scene from Episode IV where Vader chokes Motti is changed to Vader choking Motti for pointing out work would be going better if Vader stopped choking people. Afterward, Vader changes to a warning system. Of choking. | |

Subverted in Robot Chicken's parody of Star Wars. It turns out Vader cannot Force Choke, and his minions are all just faking it when he holds his hand out so that Vader doesn't pull out his lightsaber and slice them in half. Those "killed" by the "Force Choke" are later given a new identity (usually just consisting of a mustache or hat) so that Vader is none the wiser. | |

Warhammer 40,000: Black Crusade gives us the Chaos variant; the Biomancy power adeptly named Last Breath. Instead of using telekinesis to close off the victim's wind pipe the Sorcerer in question causes the target's lungs to flood with a thick liquid that causes them to begin suffocating instantly. Like the above power, the user has no way to reverse the effect; its up to the victim to pass a Toughness test before they pass out and eventually die of oxygen deprivation. Dark Heresy: This is a power available to Biomancer Psykers. They will the target's trachea to close, and it does so. Notably, it has no controllable off-switch and can't be dismissed by the psyker once started. Psykers hoping to pull a Vader with it had better either intend for their target to die, or hope the GM lets them succeed at a willpower check at a critical moment. |
