Mind Trick: One of the most useful but hardest tricks to learn, Jedi can create a suggestion in someone's mind by speaking it to them. If it works the person will repeat back the phrase and obey the order. This trick cannot make someone do anything they wouldn't be capable of doing, and is ultimately non-violent in its application.

For example, Kanan can suggest someone to walk away and forget they saw him. He cannot suggest someone to shoot another person however. It doesn't work on people with exceptionally strong will to resist it, and certain types of beings may be naturally immune (in addition to machines of any kind). Good in a jam, not entirely reliable to fallback on.

This power is opt-in or out, however I will always communicate before Kanan uses it on a player character to see how effective it will be or not.

Considering that I have Sherlock here with a weakened mental fortitude, I would be remiss to not give permission for Kanan to do the magic hand wave. He has had something similar happen to him in canon multiple times.

I'll leave it up to you if you want Kanan to sense the wrongness in his mind resulting from Cthulhu influences. I can't imagine it'd be very pleasant. Probably very Dark Side.
