This class is first attempt to add something to the game, and it is familiar ground to me. So much so I had it written in my head by the end of my commute last night.
The Sisters of the Aquarian Order (Aquarian Sister) have their geneses not only from my witch class (they can be considered to be the evolution of the Aquarian Tradtition) but also from such sources in Sci-Fi like the Bene Gesserit (Dune), the Sisterhood of Karn (Doctor Who) and the Night Sisters, the Witches of Dathomir (Star Wars).

Section 15: "Sisters of the Aquarian Order " copyright © 2015 Timothy S. Brannan.Sisters of the Aquarian Order
The Sisters of the Aquarian Order, also known as Aquarian Sisters, or often "witches" are an exclusive order of human women that train their minds to go beyond what humans can normally do. They spend hours in trances communing with a hive mind that contains all the memories of all the members of the Order past and present and some even claim future.
The purpose of the Order is to carry humanity to the stars and beyond. In ancient times when mankind was still battling over feudal lands the Order was plot the stars. When humanity was first using solid fuel rockets the Order was projecting their consciousness beyond our own solar system into the the stars. Now that humans have taken their rightful place among the stars the Order does what it can to keep humanity moving forward. To what future, only they know. They believe that humanity is on the cusp of a new consciousness and a new age.
Aquarian Sisters often serve as councilors, advisers and ambassadors. They can be found in planetary governments, great powerful houses or even on starships.
