Abilities
Mara Jade is a jedi master and has much mastery over the force. She is a very formidable fighter and is very agile.
Mara Jade can use the force to levitate herself for short distances. She can also make a force bubble around herself that doesn't let any of her body heat out so she can sneak past heat detectors.
Mara Jade was secretly raised and trained by Emperor Palpatine to be his assassin, as one of Palpatine's hands she could hear his thoughts and at a psychic level knew his every command. Her last order was to kill Luke Skywalker, an order that followed Mara even after Palpatine's death. When it was revealed the Emperor was reborn in a cloned body, it had become clear why Mara still felt Palpatine's will. Mara couldn't fight her urge to kill Luke Skywalker, despite her feelings for him, but after the death of the cloned Emperor, Mara had a looser view on her "Last Command" and after she killed the Dark Jedi Luke Skywalker, a clone of Luke Skywalker, she in a sense fulfilled her final order, and married Luke, her true love. They had a son together, Ben Skywalker named after "Ben" Obi-Wan Kenobi. Mara was also a key member of the New Jedi Order, and one of it's council members.
