That sounds cool, and feel free to make up multiple characters if you'd like. I plan on playing multiple npcs to keep the story going. I'll also have "codex entries" to give some exposition of what's going on around in the galaxy.

I'm aware that there might be too much content from the games to understand. Most of what I've written is from Wikipedia, so if you don't feel like reading the entire timeline in the first post, just read the "present time" spoiler" in the second post.
