Mind Trick works only on the weak-minded and requires great concentration.
Force Enlightenment is powerful, but very taxing, leaving the user very winded after use.

Force Cloak requires much concentration to create a convincing effect.
Force healing requires meditation at Rahm's level of aptitude and will still leave scarring.

History: Born on the planet of Ossus, Rahm lost his parents and entire tribe at the tender age of three. Alone, most would have perished, but the young Ysanna seemingly had a knack for survival, figuring out key survival skills and... even a few basic force abilities that help him survive long enough for a Jedi Master named Count Dooku to discover him. Sensing the boy's astounding force potential, Dooku brought him to Coruscant to join the Jedi Order as a youngling. After a short period of evaluation and deliberation, he was accepted and began his training.
While older than the norm, he excelled as a youngling, absorbing his teachers' lessons and displaying prodigious talents in the lightsaber, force abilities, and even more mundane skills. He even displayed a few (mostly) unique talents, such as the ability to physically cloak himself with the force, as well as the ability to crystalize force energy into, well... a crystal.
At the age of 10, the man who had rescued him and brought him to the order, Dooku, took Rahm as his apprentice. Though demanding, a bit unorthodox, and... yes, disillusioned with the Jedi Order, Dooku proved an able teacher, helping refine Rahm's saber and force abilities to a degree usually only seen in much older Jedi. They had their differences, but there were few Rahm admired and respected as much as his master during those years.
In 32 BBY, when Rahm was 18, his master left the order due to mounting dissatisfaction with it and the Republic. Though Dooku bid him to leave the order as well to continue his training, Rahm instead stayed with the Jedi, even though the fate of masterless padawans was often... uncertain.
For two years he stayed at the temple on Coruscant, studying from anyone he could, as well as assisting in the instruction of younglings. Though anxious to find a new master and finish his training officially, this time did teach him two very important lessons: patience... and the patience to teach.
However, he never found a new master. Instead, his promotion to Jedi Knight came as a result of a certain event... the kidnapping of a senator's child, with the intent to ransom them off.
It was a situation Rahm effectively stumbled into, but, feeling that the force had guided him to that exact moment and that he could do something, he involved himself fully. Using his force abilities and various mundane skills, as well as defensive usage of his lightsaber, Rahm successfully rescued the child, returned them to their parent, and delivered information to the authorities that, ultimately, resulted in the gang's destruction.
While the two years he spent in temple had provided ample evidence of his skills to the High Council, it was this event that convinced them that Rahm was worth of knighthood. And so, in his twentieth year, Rahm became a Jedi Knight. A year later, he took an apprentice of his own--a bit soon, by most standards, but he had gained valuable teaching experience during his time at the temple.
Over the next few years, Rahm assumed the role of a Jedi Sentinel--those Jedi that go out into the Galaxy and root out evil and corruption--with his apprentice in tow. They faced many dangers, but emerged (mostly) unscathed every time.
The Clone Wars erupted when he was 28, and, like many Jedi, he saw action during those terrible times. Over the course of the war, he lost many good friends, fought against his former master, Dooku, and saw his apprentice rise to the rank of Knight themselves. Near the end of the war, in recognition of his skills and service, Rahm was promoted to the rank of Jedi Master.
And then... order 66 happened. Rahm, obviously, survived, in part thanks to his usual role on the battlefield limiting his contact with clone troopers. Still, during the chaos, he lost contact with his apprentice. Doing what he did best, he went into hiding and kept his ear to the ground...
Some months after the birth of the Empire, he received word that his apprentice was alive. They had attempted to evade capture, and had... for a time. Now, however, they were in imperial custody, and, without help, would no doubt face a grisly fate.
Steeling himself, Rahm launched a one-man rescue operation, sneaking into the heart of the Imperial facility his old apprentice was supposedly being imprisoned in. However, this turned out to be a mistake.
You see, a certain VIP was making a top-secret visit to the facility at that very moment...
Emperor Palpatine.
Though he might have been able to simply slip away unnoticed--might have--he instead, in a fit of righteous anger at the sith lord, decided to attempt an assassination. It... did not go well, and he was drawn into open conflict with the Sith Lord.
...if one could call what transpired a 'conflict'. Though Rahm at first seemed to be matching the Sith Lord blow-for-blow, it soon became apparent that the Emperor was merely toying with him. In a grand display of raw power--no doubt meant to demoralize him before his death--the Emperor used the dark side of the force to... as far as Rahm could discern, tear open a hole in reality and cast him into it.
Desperately, Rahm used his force crystal ability to attempt to protect himself from wherever he'd been sent, encasing himself entirely in a giant crystal and then going into a meditative torpor. Miraculously, it seemed to work, and, eventually, his crystalline cage dropped back out into realspace... though with him still encased and unconscious.
