Can we try to stick better known characters (i.e. movies) to the SWTOR classes en specializations?
Or lesser known characters (books, lore).

Might not be a character for every specialized class.
And probably some silly suggestions in the first draft below.

Are we talking about the well known Leia with the cinnamon rolls?

*Is only familiar with the movies*

yes in the books she gains rudimentary control of her inherited force abilities
"Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin. The bankers own the earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money, and with the flick of the pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again. However, take away from them the power to create money and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in. But, if you wish to remain the slaves of bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create money." Josiah Stamp (Governor Bank of England 1928-41)

would be guardian Mace Windu was known for hos saber skills, he invented Vapaad technique, and one of the few light siders who could use his inner darkness to fuel his skills without going over to the dark side.

Don't fuck with the Windu.

His wallet is the one that says 'bad motherfucker' on it.
