I decided to throw a few Star Wars races together for a game.
I love Race-Classes but they aren't in the Spirit of Star Wars to me.
These are rough, but they should work.
Oh, and as for the question of 'why should I play a human if these other races are bettter....'
'Better' is subjective. The aliens have ability score adjustments which can make an ability check more difficult and can lose an ability score bonuses. An 'in-universe' reason is the inherit racism towards aliens in Star Wars. Many are actively enslaved by the Empire. All are treated with various degrees of disdain by humanity. If you need a mechanical reason for playing human, give them a +10% exp bonus.
