Star Wars alternate history

So this is still a basic idea that I've only put a slight bit of thought into it. If it's something that other people are interested in then I'll put some more work into it and see what happens.

Anyway so the idea is that in a universe where Revan never existed, the Mandalorians won the Mandalorian Wars, defeating the Republic and conquering the entire Galaxy. Now the galaxy is ruled by the Mandalorian Empire, under the boot of Mandalore. The Jedi order has been shattered by the Mandalorian Jedi Hunters and reduced to hidden enclaves, training there padawans in secret bases and waiting for the time when they can overthrow the Mandalorians and bring back the Republic. We will be the members of a hidden Jedi enclave in an underground base, training and living together.

Tell me your thoughts.

A group of nameless people with names

Name: Keira Dalthier

Appearance:


Gender: Female
Age: 15
Type: Godly
School: Demon Hunter

Magic/Weapon(s):
*Prayer of Astyr - First Stanza: The flow of life is eternal and shared by all living entities that reside naturally in our world. When one understands the flow of life within all living things, one can command it. Life energy can be taken from a dying creature and transferred to another, strengthening them and healing wounds. The flow can also be hindered in the bodies of whole and living beings, weakening them and causing pain.

*Prayer of Astyr - Second Stanza: Demons and the undead are unnatural. Abominations to Astyr. This Stanza is anathema to these perversions of life, burning them from the inside and binding their movements until they can be slain.

*A simple, unadorned dagger, used as much for rituals as for self-defense.

*While not actually magic, as a Priestess, she is trained in non-magical healing.

Bio: Taken as an infant by the Church of Astyr, Goddess of Life, Kiera was found to be blessed with vitality, overcoming a disease that would have killed a lesser child. Thought to be touched by Astyr, she was raised and trained by the church to be a Priestess of Astyr. When she turned fifteen she was sent to the Academy of Solomon, to ply her power in service to the world and Astyr. She knows all four hundred and sixty two stanzas of the Prayer of Astyr, but at present is able to empower only the first two.

Note: The Prayer of Astyr, able to control life, can be perverted and twisted into Necromancy. As such Necromancers and the Undead are the absolute worst evil imaginable to a servant of Astyr.

A group of nameless people with names

*Brown hair and eyes*

Name:
Elizabeth Gordie

Age:
18
Powers:
Telepathy
At a distance she is able to read the surface thoughts of unshielded minds, should she focus on them. She can also communicate with those minds. A mind-shield will keep her out, but the person must be naturally shielded or be capable of consciously blocking her.

Tactile Mind Meld
Skin to skin contact causes her to meld minds with the person she is touching. She sees all their thoughts, memories, feeling, desires, secrets and fears. Everything that makes them who they are. She isn't just a passive observer, either. For the moment of contact she experiences their mind as if it were her own. Essentially, she becomes them. This meld is passively a two way street, and unless she actively shields her own mind, they would experience all of her, even as she is experiencing them.

Weapons:
None

Bio:
Elizabeth Gordie was always told by her parents that she was special. They knew about her abilities and considered them gifts, but cautioned her about using them publically. She was orphaned at a young age when both of her parents died in a fire. She and her brother were placed into orphanages but were moved around a lot and eventually they were separated. It was after being separated from her brother that she met Maruman, a foul tempered cat, that would scowl at her and spit and scratch if she ever tried to pet him for too long. Despite his attitude he seemed to have become attached to her and would follow her around, even following her from one orphanage to the next. Elizabeth had also learned that other people's minds were not always as pleasant as those of her parents, so she took to wearing long-sleeved clothes and thick gloves all the time to avoid accidently mind-melding. One day, however, a man was visiting the orphanage and as she passed him in the hall she tripped and fell. The man reached out grab her, catching her bare wrist and she suddenly knew from his mind that he was an agent of Miss Dawson. Worse, her mind had been unshielded and he had seen her past and her power. That very same day she was taken from the orphanage by the man. "Adopted" by the Home, with a generous bribe to the orphanage to forget she had ever existed. Naturally, when Elizabeth was taken to the Home, Maruman followed not far behind.

Dreams/Wishes:
She doesn't know what she wants.

Evil, Good, Walking the Line:
Good, for the most part.

Siblings (If Any):
A brother, somewhere.

Pets (If Any):
An old, one-eyed, ill tempered cat named Maruman that follows her around and occasionally uses her shoulders as bed.

A group of nameless people with names

Name: Shade (Real name unknown)
Age: Unknown
Species: Ghost

Appearance:

Normal Form

*If aggravated she will take on a second, more scary appearance*

Banshee Form

Occupation: None

Powers/Abilities:

• Incorporeality - She can lose some physical substancy, becoming partially see-through and allowing her to pass through objects and vice versa.
• Invisibility - By relaxing all of her physical substancy, she becomes functionally invisible, existing as a formless presence felt simply as a cold spot in the air, a shiver up the spine, or a breath of wind in a sealed room. She can still be seen by other Spirits or Mediums.
• Spirit Eyes - As a Spirit herself, she is capable of seeing any other ghostly presences, even if they are invisible to normal eyes.
• Telekinesis - While invisible, she is able apply force to a physical object to move it as if she were fully corporeal, at the cost of a good deal of energy and concentration.
• Banshee Scream - When truly enraged, she takes on her banshee form as is capable of letting out an ear piercing screech of rage that saps the energy and courage of those who hear it. Inducing feelings of terror and hopelessness.

Personality: Shade is a bit of a prankster. Her mischevious streak causes many of the less informed to believe her to be some kind of Poltergeist. For the most part, however she is quite good natured, but when offended she can be very vindictive.

Backstory: Shade has existed in the Aurora Falls High School for decades, in one form or another. For the most part she is a simple ghost story told by the students to scare one another. Shade knows nothing about her life before becoming a Ghost, beyond the fact that her grave is located somewhere in the heavy woodland behind the school. Despite not actually knowing who she was or how she died, Shade is convinced that she was murdered and she has joined the Paranormal Investigation Club for something to do until she can find her killer, or at least her grave.

A cool idea. I'm very interested. If I may, I'd like to reserve the cat.
