[@Alfhedil], Hmm, so...question on race. For me, it's a toss-up between Chiss and Rattataki. I love both races, but not sure if one would fit in with this timeline more than the other. The only two characters I know of around the time was Thrawn (Chiss) and Asajj Ventress (Ratt).  

However, if it's all the same to you then I'll make my choice, but figure I'd ask :)
