Seems like a lot of work for 2 weeks. I've only done two characters, the basic human form tutorial by Kurt and then one on my own and I will say that modeling a character can be real time consuming unless you're already experienced at it. The other issue will be that to animate him, you will have to rig him. That means alot of weight painting to get him to animate without a bunch of deformity. I'm not saying it can't be done in two weeks, but unless you've got a little experience, I think two weeks might be pushing it a little.
With that said, I'd recommend doing your project initially without the character then if time permits, work on adding the character in. This way, you're more guaranteed to have a finished product at the end of two weeks whether or not you finish the character.
That is a TON of work for two weeks. I had five months to learn how, build skin and rig a human face. Hope all goes well.
