Here's a couple characters I have.  Tell me what you think of them.

Gamorrean Outcast

Name:  Yaughckt

Player:

Species:  Gamorrean 

Sex:  Male Age:  30

Height:  5-7 Weight:  300

Physical Description:  You are green-skinned, and dress in odd clothes for a
Gamorrean.  You have a scar running down your arm, and some more on your
face.

Background:  You were always left out of Gamorrean culture, because of how
your thoughts and feelings differed from other Gamorreans.  You never hated
droids, were always intelligent, and weren't brutal or cruel at all.  You
never liked war or fighting.  You decided to get away from Gamorr, and make a
living somewhere else.  You would like to learn about piloting starships.

Personality:  Kind.  Intelligent.  You are well liked by other species, but
most Gamorreans hate you, they think you're some kind of a traitor.  You have
abandoned the ways on Gamorr.  You can fight if you have to, but you like to
rely on your brains most of all.

Objectives:  To make a new life for yourself.  To enrich your mind with the
wonders of the galaxy.  To get your own starship.

A Quote:  "Not all of us are stupid."  (snorted in Gamorrean)

and memorized all the rules in the 2nd edition SW RPG.
