Since we have delved back into pseudo Canon with KOTOR, I think it is time the game got some Toons that have been absent too long. The Thrawn Trilogy is the most Dense and logical choice to pull from
Here is a list of Characters that are far more important to the Fandom that obscure Old Republic toon (That's right The game changers and their constant Revan begging can go away)

A Full Canon Backstory is not required to create characters as you have pointed out with Thrawn. His usage in Rebels was an extension to the things he did in in the books, Alien, Tactical Genius ect....
Jade - Bounty hunter / Jedi
Karrde - Smuggler / Tactician
These Characters are owned by Lucusfilm / Disney. My point is:
1 - I want these EU characters in the game, they fit in the SWGOH realm regardless of Fixed Canon or back-story
2 - These characters are beloved by a larger base than just the Video-Game-Playing KOTOR fans, certainly more so than Revan - and I'm sick of people banging the Revan drum!
All of these Characters are interesting, and Bounty Hunters need a boost, having a BH/Jedi will round out that group as part of a rework. A Sith Clone would add to any Clone team and a clone rework.

She was the Emporer's personal bounty hunter. EP would send her on Bounty missions to kill enimies, she was rewarded by the empire, no different than Vader using Boba.....
