Thanks. I'll be fine in a few more days, I'm sure. Our Winn clung to Bajoran religion, but during the Occupation it had been her coping mechanism. Afterwards, it was her path to power. If Mirror Winn hadn't been subjugated and in need of that coping mechanism, and if she had been as ignored by the Mirror Prophets as ours, would she even have been interested in the Bajoran clergy? What if instead she had been drawn to, say, the Klingon religious culture and gone to Borath?
Mirror Winn is in the DS9 novels, there'll be something on her at Memory Beta.
But Timelines offer a lot of possibilities for her, given how hollow her belief in the Prophets was, there's one timeline where she maybe accepted the Founders as Gods and willingly brought Bajor into the Dominion and ruled like Dukat.
Only she'd be worse. She'd recall how her faith helped her through the Occupation, and know that breaking the spirit of those who believed in the the Prophets would require more than the violence of the Cardassians.
That’s utterly horrifying. That timeline would be dark as night. Maybe too dystopian even for my tastes, but I am intrigued by the concept. Sort of “A Handmaiden’s Tale” but without religion used as the hammer.

Add in the Dominion geneering tech, and you've the capacity for some real horror.
If Professor Sato reached these dizzy statistical heights, I’d hope that Kai Winn could at least begin to bridge the gap between her and the rest of the DIP chasing pack. Winn was a diplomatic genius. She was manipulative and was a great opportunist, given how she rose from the Bajoran labour camps. She did abuse her power, but she also managed to do so in such a conniving way that the majority of people (usually everyone except the DS9 main Starfleet crew) were oblivious to her deceitfulness. She’s deserving of an important / powerful crew slot on the game.
I want a Skeletor Campaign featuring Minister Jaro and Captain Keogh.
Onaya as well
Not Tom Paris, if you don't have a superpower and wear only a swimsuit you're not trying hard enough.
Oh, wow, I'd forgotten all about Meg Foster being in DS9. Probably because Decipher never made an Onaya card. At one time, I constructed a Federation/Bajoran deck built entirely on the foundation of using Jaro Essa and Keogh. And yes, when I reported them for duty, I did announce them as "Live Action Skeletor" and "Animated Skeletor".
