Bo-Katan Kryze
Bo-Katan Kryze spent decades fighting to free Mandalore, and she did it first as a terrorist, then as a rebel, and finally as its ruler. She was born into the royal House Kryze and grew up in the shadow of her pacifist sister, Duchess Satine. Rejecting Satine's New Mandalorian ideals, she joined Death Watch and became Pre Vizsla's trusted lieutenant and commander of the elite Nite Owls. She helped Vizsla and Maul's Shadow Collective overthrow her sister's government, then broke with Maul when he killed Vizsla and seized the throne. She rescued Satine too late to save her, freed Obi-Wan Kenobi, and led the resistance in the civil war that followed. Working with Ahsoka Tano, she brought the Republic's forces to Mandalore, captured Maul during the Siege of Mandalore and was named regent. She lost the position when she refused to serve the new Emperor and Clan Saxon betrayed her. Years later she helped Sabine Wren destroy the Duchess weapon and accepted the Darksaber to lead the clans against the Empire. Her rule ended in the Night of a Thousand Tears, when Moff Gideon took the blade from her. After the Empire fell she raided Imperial shipments, helped Din Djarin rescue Grogu and eventually won back the Darksaber. She then united the scattered Mandalorian coverts, retook Mandalore from Gideon's remnant forces and relit the Great Forge to begin rebuilding her homeworld.
