I'm totally a-okay with the Elite Array. Like you said, getting two Ability Score increases every four levels is a huge advantage.
As far as concepts go, I've got this Noble 3/Scout 1 idea I've been tinkering with. Former scion of an Imperial loyalist family. Sees an opportunity to "get in on the ground floor" of this whole overthrow-the-Empire shtick in a bid to acquire more land/resources/sexy alien servants. Seemingly gambles on the wrong proverbial horse and loses it all; family holdings, wealth, etc., and is forced to flee to the Outer Rim out of fear of gettin' whacked by Imperial Stormtroopers and such for high treason. Very much a character who's a "good guy/gal out of selfishness."
