That's the right place, so you can tell everyone about your ideas and expand on the NPCs you would like to develop, their personalities, place in the game and FR world and perhaps even snippets of dialogues etc, to make others interested The more details you will provide, the better/more useful feedback you will recieve.
So far I can only suggest droping the "Lightblade" from Cora's name, since it sounds a tad too flashy and, perhaps use one of the canon drow houses (if it is indeed drow) for your character (unless you are already doing so). A handy list can be found here:

I should caution you though that developping 12 new NPCs is a very writing heavy enterprise as you will need interactions among both new and 17 existing NPCs. For comaprison, BG1NPC mod (more than a year in development) had 20+ people staff to cope with 25 NPCs.

Disadvantages

What is the underlying idea of this kit? something like an eldritch knight? So does he have the thaco of a fighter? And why only longsword and bastardsword, perhaps it is more logical to be able to become grand master in all swords and only proficient in the other weapons.Here is what I have so far people correct me if what im planning isnt possible

What do you mean with restrictions of paladin? That he may not drop in reputation? Cause you want it to be CG so doesn't have paladins restriction to be LG.
Don't know if you are the only one who is coding this mod. Cause I'm busy with a mod with 3 npc's and quests and I tell you it takes longer then you think.
Still modding the Mod for the Wicked... It is a big project you know... And I got sidetracked (several times) a bit... sorry.
However, as we all know, Evil never really sleeps.

Winds of change... Endure them, and in Enduring grow Stronger
It takes a fool to look for logic in a man's heart

Kat: if there were more guys that looked like you out here, people's offspring wouldnt be so damn ugly
Noctalys: you are adorable
