Oooh, Legends! And there's already been a Mara Jade mention! YAAY!
At this point, it is completely my headcanon that Rey's mother was a Mara-Jade-type character--- Force sensitive taken as a kid to be trained to serve Palpatine... then she met his son, and they had this glorious bittersweet childhood-sweethearts thing, and Palps' effort at conditioning her broke because she saw how he treated his own kid. And then when the Empire fell, they took a bunch of cred from the black-ops accounts she would've had access to and went bashing around the galaxy for a while and figuring their shit out before they had Rey (which is what Han and Leia should have done instead of having a kid while Leia was in the middle of Jedi training and rebuilding a galactic government and and and.... sorry, that's a topic for another post, and probably needs to go on the Dark side at that). So anyway.
