Rosa Merridon, female Human Noble 3/Scoundrel 2
The daughter of a Jedi that survived Order 66 and an ordinary woman, Rosa has lived her life in defiance of the Empire. Despite the death of the Emperor and Darth Vader when she was only eight, the rebellion still continued to struggle, bringing her and her brother into service where--if things had been different--they wouldn't have.
Fourteen years after the battle of Yavin, Rosa began her service, helping coordinate small missions for the New Republic, but doing some intelligence work for them as well. In the decade that has followed that, she has made little real progress up the structural ladder, and constantly thrives to prove herself as just as accomplished as her father and brother were.

Im awfully late. Is there any possibility i could get to play or do you already got your 5-6? characters?
This list accurate?
Im going to toss in a small concept anyways and wait for your reply
Its a lvl 1 draft of a lvl 5 scout.

Level: 1
Background: Adventurer, at least in heart, since the day he traveled with his uncle to a nearby star system to buy little sister toys for her birthday.

He had not the nerve to come back to his family disappointing them so he told them that he was accepted and was to leave the planet the same day. He lived from had to mouth a couple of years, being the cleaning boy at a industrial star ship. At more mature age he took to travel working his way from ship to ship as security agent or helping at the engines, ship guns, helping/learning from the Captain or whatever could be done at a starship.
In combat: ship guns/ ranged weapon attacks, not the hero type.
Out of Combat: Socializing with the crew, telling stories and gathering information of the people around him.
Code:
Shayuri - introspective Jedi/possibly 'force pilot'
ShaggySpellsword - veteran NCO type/pilot
Friadoc - 'contractor'/pilot

It looks like you really put a lot of effort into this character, and I hope there's a game out there for him, but this one isn't it. I just can't see the Republic Navy letting someone delibrately take a child on a warship engaged in active military operations.
I think there are more than 4-6 good ideas here already, but I'm not going to make a final decision until this weekend. So it's still okay to toss out an idea. Though at least on the mechanics side, you'll need to revise things a bit, because this game is Saga rules (released in 2007), not revised core rules(released in 2003), and characters start at 5th level. Just one nitpick, though.
Unless he's from a world that only very recently joined the Republic, he would have known the age restrictions in the Republic Navy. The Republic's been at war for a long time, and the Navy has been growing rapidly for that entire period, and there's not a rock they won't dig under to find potential quality officers and enlisted personnel. Right now about every other year they add a new fleet -- each with more capial ships and more starfighers than the entire Rebel Navy had before the Republic was proclaimed -- to the Republic's order of battle.

Oh. i didnt see the saga part. Should not be a problem. What do you think of the character? Any recommendations?
Blackrat
He Who Lurks Beyond The Veil
Yeah, having taken a look of the options I'll go with Cathar. If it's okay for you drothgery, I'd like to drop the Cathar language from his known languages though. Due to his background, there is no logical way for him to know but few basic words like "Mother", "Yes" & "No" etc, since he has been isolated from other Cathar since early childhood.
