Anyone else thinking that someone younger than Shepard would be better?

Maybe someone around the age most people go to college at?

Something like this:

The population of ( insert planetary system name here ) is getting fed up with the Systems Alliance. It all came to a boiling point when on ( insert date here ) protesters were demanding information on a botched alliance black operation that killed hundreds of innocent people. The leader of this protest was involved in the operation and was set to give a speech at the protest about classified information.

Just as the leader of the protest began his speech a shot rang out and the protest leader was dead. The local police as well as a hastily formed citizens militia tracked the assassin and after a gun battle killed him. After checking the assassin's omnitool it was discovered that the assassin was a member of an Alliance Special Forces team.

In an attempt to cover this up the Alliance sent in ships loaded with Alliance Marines to destroy the evidence. Once landing on the surface the Alliance Marines were ordered to " kill everything in site", one group of alliance marines refused this order and sided with the humans on the planet and a massive firefight erupted.

These events quickly spread to other systems due to fast communication and full blown insurrection began in many systems.

Just a thought, the game could revolve around choosing who to side with as well as uncovering the truth.
