A '''displacer field''' is a somewhat unreliable defensive device employed by Imperial agents such as [[Inquisitor]]s. The device will [[teleport]] the user out of harm's way if the bearer takes a strong enough hit from a weapon{{Fn|1a}}.
Use of the device is risky for several reasons: first, it reacts automatically, and the user cannot control either the teleportation or exactly where he or she teleports to{{Fn|2b}}. Furthermore, the user rematerialises moving at the same speed and in the same direction as he or she was when the field activated, which can be equally hazardous{{Fn|1a1b}}.
Known users of displacer fields include Inquisitors [[Amberley Vail]]{{Fn|1a}} and [[Ernst Stavros Killian]]{{Fn|2a}}.
