Nothing in particular. I'll let you know once we see the sheet.

I was thinking of making the character's flaw being their dogmatism. They were a true believer of the Empire before, and damnit they can't be wrong twice! They would be very hard headed and stubborn. Ah well, can always use that as a flaw later.
Perhaps the fact that the empire doesn't like non-humans would fit into the backstory? Could very easily have them been a 'leashed crook' sort of deal under a particular ISB agent (Who would be my character in the next part)? I like the idea of someone who is trying to use the Rebellion to get a new start in the new regime that it will bring on.

I figure if I leave it to a cool surprise you'd all be disappointed. Honestly I was so against the idea of her using her lightsaber I didn't even think about the colour, but it'd be blue
