Kreia's drain life 3 does not say replaces attack so:

1) Can this be attempted and then you can attack, perform a SA or force power that replaces attack right after drain life 3 is attempted wether it be successful or not?

2) Are there any other force powers or SA's that do not replace attack and therefore can also be used and then an attack can be made or is this ability of Kriea's unique in the game? I know that drain life 3 is unique, but I am speaking to the idea of a force power not replacing attack being unique. Because if there are others, I am not aware of them and I fear that there may be characters I am mis playing.

1) Yes

2) Jedi Mind Trick, Sith Sorcery, Burst Lightning are a few Force Powers that do not replace attacks or turns. It is not unique in that regard

Yes, but Kreia would need a way to spend FP more than once per turn if you wanted to use another force power.

Yes, they've been around since the introduction of Force Stun and Jedi Mind Trick in CotF.

Basically, "zero-time force powers", as they are generally called, can be used at any time during the character's turn, but not while in the middle of another action. Moving counts as an action, so they cannot be used in conjunction with (Greater) Mobile Attack


This is covered under the general part of the Force Powers section in the FAQ.

1) Yes. Something fun to consider is giving Kreia Force Spirit from Qui-Gon or someone else, enabling her to use Drain Life 3 TWICE in a turn, and STILL attack an opponent.

2) Some Force Powers I can think of off the top of my head:
Sith Sorcery
Drain Life 10
Sith Hatred
Jedi Mind Trick
Force Sense
Force Leap

Interesting, I thought you could use (Greater) Mobile Attack to move in and then use Jedi Mind Trick so that they don't get an AoO when you move away. (as long as they fail the save)
