Doing something out of the blue with a character(Mara Jade) isn't really liked amongst people, and is usually frowned upon especially when the person or group who did such things didn't ask before hand. It is highly possible that any characters created under LA licence becomes LA's property.

You wanna make Sam Witwer into a Marty sue secret apprentice to Darth Vader and have him found the Rebel Alliance, have three games to do so! But a Yoda? You may as well be asking your girlfriend for permission to doink her really really really really really really really really really really really REALLY hot sister and her equally hot best friend. Yodas are not a joke, man. This is serious. Yoda's aren't main characters though, killing off the Exile meant that there was absolutely no way to tell any more stories about her than before KotOR II, but that in of itself has hardly any ground to cover apart from the well detailed Mandalorian Wars.

Possibly but if someone created a character, and then another author did something to that character without telling them about it there could be some backlash against that author because they did something that didn't fit said character. Now if that other author asked to use, the character in some other different way and the creator of said character said ok then it wouldn't be so bad....I guess its more of a common courtesy thing, asking before doing because who knows. The creator of said character, could have already had some more ideas to further use the character but then those ideas are all shot because another author used said character making a mess of things without telling the creator of the character.

That doesn't preclude LA from owning the rights to all characters created within thier IP...and it is not just characters that an author can mess up but the timelines too if someone (LA) doesn't oversee all work.

I pretty sure that everything related to story and characters goes under LA. I don't think LA would let anyone make Star Wars game without having complete control over those elements.

Bioware doesnt have rights to Meetra, but Lucasarts DOES, everyone seems to forget that nowadays that Star Wars itself is a lisence, Lucasarts tell bioware what they can do with it
Chose a Marauder, Not because they are OP, i chose it because its the closest thing to Revan as you can get, Revanites Unite! The Vaner Legacy
