DS9 Mirror Universe characters are basically the same people as they are in our universe. They're in a different situation, which makes them a bit more desperate and a bit more grumpy... but basically, apart from Kira, any DS9 mirror character is the same person. Oh, except that the women are all gay or bi, for some weird reason.
I can't watch any of the DS9 mirror eps without just being sad at the wasted opportunity.
So... okay. There's no Cardassian/Klingon Empire. The Terran Empire is still alive and kicking ass while twirling their Dick Dastardly mustaches. How would you do the characters, the major galactic players? Story arcs?
