Huyang is the Jedi Order's lightsaber teacher. The ancient droid spent a thousand generations aboard the training ship Crucible, helping younglings turn the kyber crystals they found during the Gathering into their first blades. His students included Yoda, Mace Windu, Bell Zettifar and Kanan Jarrus. His memory banks hold a record of every lightsaber and the Jedi who built it. His past is so old that younglings joked he had arrived at the Temple in a big blue box. During the Clone Wars he took Ahsoka Tano's group of initiates to Ilum. When Hondo Ohnaka's pirates raided the Crucible, he hid the students' crystals inside his own chest and kept fighting after losing his head and arms. He lived through the Jedi Purge. Years later he helped Ahsoka train Sabine Wren and flew with her as she searched for Ezra Bridger and Grand Admiral Thrawn. That search ended in another galaxy, where he gave Ezra a spare emitter he had made for Kanan and stayed on Peridea with Ahsoka and Sabine.

Maz Kanata is the ancient, goggle-wearing pirate queen whose lakeside castle on Takodana served as a neutral haven for smugglers, pirates and travelling musicians for about a thousand years. Her house had a single rule: no fighting, and no politics. She is Force-sensitive, but she never became a Jedi. Over the centuries she travelled the galaxy collecting relics, trusting the ones that spoke to her through the Force. During the High Republic she took in the infant Qort, who later became a Jedi, and stood beside her friend Sav Malagán when the Nihil attacked Takodana. She kept her abilities hidden during the Empire's reign. Even so, she helped Leia Organa plan her disguise as Boushh to rescue Han Solo, and in the years after Endor she left home again, sensing that the Force was out of balance. At some point she came into possession of Anakin and Luke Skywalker's lightsaber. Thirty years after Endor, she offered it to Rey and pushed her to accept her calling. When the First Order destroyed her castle, she put the saber in Finn's hands instead. Later she pointed Finn and Rose Tico toward a codebreaker on Canto Bight, and in the end she joined the Resistance on Ajan Kloss as an adviser to Leia. She mourned Leia's death and awarded Chewbacca a medal after the victory at Exegol.

For more than eight centuries, Yoda shaped the Jedi Order. He was its long-serving Grand Master, a teacher of younglings and Padawans, and the Jedi who outlived the Order's fall long enough to hand its legacy to Luke Skywalker. He was already a Grand Master in the High Republic era. In 382 BBY he helped end the Night of Sorrow on Dalna, and afterwards he chose to keep what the Jedi had learned about the Nameless creatures out of the Archives. Nearly 150 years later he stepped away from the Council to teach aboard the Star Hopper and fought the Nihil at Trymant IV and beyond. His apprentices over the centuries included Kantam Sy and Dooku, who later became a Sith Lord. In the last days of the Republic he doubted that Anakin Skywalker should be trained, and he sensed that a hidden Sith Master was still at work. He brought the clone army to Geonosis and commanded Republic forces through the Clone Wars. During the war the spirit of Qui-Gon Jinn taught him how to keep his identity after death. When Order 66 wiped out the Jedi, Yoda fought Darth Sidious in the Senate chamber, lost, and went into exile on Dagobah. Years later, after facing his own failures, he trained Luke Skywalker. He died of old age in 4 ABY and became one with the Force. Decades later he appeared to Luke on Ahch-To and helped his old student forgive himself.

Jabba is the most notorious gangster of the Outer Rim. For centuries he ran smuggling, spice, slavery, gambling and piracy from his desert palace on Tatooine, and he became one of the most powerful members of the Grand Hutt Council. During the High Republic he took part in a Hutt plot to wreck a treaty on Hynestia, and was captured and held for ransom for it. By the fall of the Republic he was hosting the Boonta Eve Classic, where a young slave named Anakin Skywalker won. When the Clone Wars began, Count Dooku and his uncle Ziro had his infant son Rotta kidnapped, hoping to turn the Hutts against the Republic. The plan failed when Anakin and Ahsoka Tano brought the child home, and Jabba opened his hyperspace lanes to the Republic. He later had Ziro killed, and Maul's Shadow Collective forced him into a short alliance. Under the Empire he kept his power by making deals with Darth Vader, and after Vader wiped out the rest of the Hutt Council he was left in sole control of the Hutt Clans. His long feud with the smuggler Han Solo ended with Solo frozen in carbonite and hung in his throne room. That trophy brought Luke Skywalker and his friends to Tatooine, and in 4 ABY, above the Great Pit of Carkoon, Leia Organa strangled Jabba with the chain he had used to keep her captive.
Jabba is born into the Desilijic clan. His grandparents are Mama and Papa the Hutts, and his uncles are Ziro and Ebor.

Han Solo's loyal co-pilot and best friend, Chewbacca spent more than two centuries fighting alongside the heroes who shaped the galaxy. A veteran of the Clone Wars, he escaped Trandoshan hunters on Wasskah with Ahsoka Tano and helped Yoda flee Kashyyyk when Order 66 was issued. The Empire enslaved him, and he was rescued from a Mimban prison by a young Han Solo, to whom he swore a life debt. The two pulled off the Kessel Run, won the Millennium Falcon from Lando Calrissian and became notorious smugglers, until a charter to Alderaan pulled them into the Rebellion. Chewbacca helped rescue Princess Leia from the Death Star, covered Luke Skywalker at Yavin, survived Hoth and Cloud City, freed Han from Jabba's palace and helped bring down the shield generator on Endor. After the war he helped liberate his enslaved homeworld of Kashyyyk and went back to his family, then returned to smuggling with Han after Ben Solo fell to the dark side. He was at Han's side when his friend was killed on Starkiller Base. He then flew Rey to Ahch-To, piloted the Falcon at Crait, survived his apparent death on Pasaana and fought at Exegol, where the Sith were finally defeated.

Ki-Adi-Mundi is best remembered as one of the steady, sometimes skeptical voices of the Jedi High Council in the Republic's last years, and as a Jedi whose career spanned more than a century. In 132 BBY, during the High Republic, he was a newly made Master who sat on the tactical council Vernestra Rwoh called to discuss the assassin Mae. Decades later he held a Council seat of his own. There he taught younglings alongside Yarael Poof, pushed back on Qui-Gon Jinn's calls for more outreach, and in 32 BBY famously insisted that the Sith had been extinct for a millennium. He survived the arena battle on Geonosis that began the Clone Wars and became a Jedi General. He took scars from an early clash with General Grievous and led the northern assault in the Second Battle of Geonosis, where he topped Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano with 65 kills. On the Council he took a hard line, arguing against intervening on neutral Mandalore and personally telling Ahsoka Tano she had been expelled after the Temple bombing. In 19 BBY, while commanding the 21st Nova Corps in the Mygeeto campaign, he was gunned down by his own clone troopers when Order 66 was issued. His lightsaber survived him and ended up with the collector Dok-Ondar.
Ki-Adi-Mundi is born on Cerea. Canon gives no birth year, so this is an estimate based on his being a newly raised Jedi Master by 132 BBY. He trains in the Order under Yoda.
As a newly elevated Jedi Master, he joins Vernestra Rwoh's tactical council, reviews footage of Mae fighting Master Sol, and warns that she could become a major threat.
He gives the eulogy at Master Katri's funeral at the Jedi Temple after she is killed on Raxus Secundus.

He watches Grievous's transmission showing the captured Eeth Koth, Maul's massacre on Raydonia, and other emergencies, and attends Obi-Wan Kenobi's staged funeral.

His lightsaber ends up with the collector Dok-Ondar on Batuu, who tells part of its history to a First Order sergeant.
Dooku was one of the finest duelists the Jedi Order ever produced. He spent most of his long life as a Jedi, then gave it up and became Darth Tyranus, the Sith apprentice who led the galaxy into the Clone Wars. His father, the Count of Serenno, abandoned him as a baby, and Jedi seekers took him in. He grew up in the Temple as Yoda's Padawan, and his curiosity about the dark side worried his teachers even then. As a Jedi Master he trained Rael Averross and Qui-Gon Jinn and later sat on the High Council. Over the decades, a corrupt Senate and a Council he saw as too cautious wore down his faith. In 42 BBY he left the Order, overthrew his brother Ramil and took back the title of Count. Qui-Gon's death at Naboo pushed him further, and after he killed Master Yaddle he became Darth Sidious's apprentice. He then helped set up the secret clone army and gathered thousands of star systems into the Confederacy of Independent Systems. As the Separatists' Head of State he opened the war at Geonosis in 22 BBY. He trained General Grievous and Asajj Ventress, betrayed Ventress on his master's orders, and later tried to groom Savage Opress and Quinlan Vos to replace her. In 19 BBY he took Chancellor Palpatine hostage during the Battle of Coruscant. There Anakin Skywalker beat him in a duel aboard the Invisible Hand and executed him at Palpatine's urging.

His father attacks him at Countess Anya's funeral. Soon afterward, cultists capture him on Asusto, where he sees visions of his future and uses Force lightning for the first time.
Finishes his training and rises to Jedi Master, becoming known as one of the best lightsaber duelists of his generation. He takes Rael Averross as his first Padawan and trains him for about ten years.
At 34, chooses 12-year-old Qui-Gon Jinn as his apprentice. On Numidian Prime he saves Qui-Gon from the bounty hunter Shenda Mol with Force lightning.

Plo Koon was a Jedi Council master and one of the Republic's best starfighter pilots during the Clone Wars. He was known above all for how much he cared about the clone troopers under his command. As a young master he found a three-year-old Ahsoka Tano on Shili and brought her to the Jedi Temple, and he stayed a protective mentor to her for the rest of his life. He trained Bultar Swan to knighthood and sat on the Council that met Anakin Skywalker. He fought in the arena at Geonosis and survived, then took command of the 104th "Wolfpack" Battalion alongside Commander Wolffe.

The Sith Lord who brought down the Galactic Republic and ruled the galaxy as its Emperor, Sheev Palpatine led a double life for decades. In public he was a mild senator. In secret he was Darth Sidious, apprentice to Darth Plagueis. He killed his master and took the Zabrak child Maul from Dathomir to train as his own apprentice. Then he engineered the Trade Federation's invasion of his own homeworld, and the crisis it caused won him the office of Supreme Chancellor in 32 BBY. Working with his second apprentice, Count Dooku, he ran both sides of the Clone Wars. That let him gather emergency powers, turn Anakin Skywalker into Darth Vader and wipe out the Jedi with Order 66. In 19 BBY he declared himself Emperor. His Empire held the galaxy for a generation until the Rebellion rose against it. At the Battle of Endor in 4 ABY, Vader turned on him to save Luke Skywalker and threw him down a reactor shaft. Palpatine had planned for this. Using dark side transference, his spirit moved into a failing clone body on the hidden world of Exegol. From there he set the Contingency in motion to destroy what was left of the Empire, created Snoke to steer the First Order, and built the Final Order. He announced his return in 35 ABY but was finally destroyed at the Battle of Exegol by his granddaughter Rey, who turned his own lightning back on him with the strength of the Jedi behind her.

Qui-Gon Jinn is best known as the Jedi who found Anakin Skywalker, the boy he believed was the Chosen One, and as the mentor whose death set Obi-Wan Kenobi's path. He was a maverick Jedi Master who followed the Living Force even when that meant defying the High Council. He grew up in the Jedi Temple and became Count Dooku's Padawan at twelve. He was knighted around 58 BBY, and in 44 BBY he took Kenobi as his own apprentice. Together they spent a year protecting Duchess Satine Kryze on Mandalore and uncovered a royal plot on Pijal. After Pijal he turned down a seat on the Jedi Council so he could keep training Kenobi. Qui-Gon also learned in secret how to keep his consciousness after death. In 32 BBY he was sent to end the Trade Federation's blockade of Naboo and rescued Queen Amidala. On Tatooine he met the enslaved boy Anakin, whose midi-chlorian count was higher than any on record, and fought off Darth Maul, which proved to him that the Sith had returned. The Council refused to train Anakin. Qui-Gon then went back to Naboo, where Maul mortally wounded him during the battle for Theed. With his last breath he made Kenobi promise to train the boy. Even in death he stayed part of the story: he returned as a voice and then as a Force spirit to guide Yoda and, years later, Kenobi.
Qui-Gon Jinn is born on the galactic capital and later taken to the Jedi Temple, where he joins the Heliost Clan and learns lightsaber combat from Tera Sinube.
At twelve he becomes Master Dooku's apprentice. He first sees the holocron of Jedi prophecies, which will fascinate him for the rest of his life.
Four months into his apprenticeship he goes into battle for the first time and meets Rael Averross, Dooku's former Padawan, who becomes a lifelong friend.

After Kenobi's confrontation with Darth Vader, Qui-Gon finally appears to his old apprentice as a Force spirit.
Mace Windu was the Jedi Order's greatest champion in the last years of the Republic. He sat on the Jedi High Council and served as Master of the Order, and he was one of the few Jedi ever to stand toe to toe with a Sith Lord and win. As a baby he lost his parents and was taken to the Temple. He trained as a Padawan under Cyslin Myr and later under Yoda, and became a Knight around 50 BBY. He took Katri's seat on the Council after the deadly mission to Raxus Secundus, which he carried out alongside his friend Dooku. He trained Depa Billaba and invented Vaapad, a fighting style that channels his own inner darkness into controlled aggression, and his amethyst lightsaber became a symbol of his authority. He doubted Qui-Gon Jinn's claim that the Sith had returned, and he never fully trusted Anakin Skywalker. Even so, he led the Jedi rescue at Geonosis, where he beheaded Jango Fett. In the Clone Wars that followed he served as a general, a diplomat and an adviser to Chancellor Palpatine. Freeing Ryloth earned him the name "Hammer of Ryloth." In 19 BBY Anakin revealed that Palpatine was Darth Sidious. Windu went to arrest him and defeated him, but then Anakin turned on him, and Sidious killed him. The Empire used his attempt to justify Order 66 and later painted him in its propaganda as a traitor and a gang leader.

Palpatine uses Windu's attempt to justify Order 66 and the Jedi Purge. Imperial propaganda brands him a criminal, but people like Cham Syndulla still remember him with respect.
Mas Amedda was the bureaucrat who stood at Palpatine's shoulder through the Republic's final years and then helped run the Empire that replaced it. As Vice Chair and Speaker of the Senate under Finis Valorum, he slowed relief for Naboo during the 32 BBY blockade and steered the chancellor into the missteps that led to his ouster. He then pledged himself to Palpatine, who later told him he was secretly the Sith Lord Darth Sidious. In 22 BBY Amedda nudged Jar Jar Binks into proposing the emergency powers that created the Grand Army of the Republic. During the Clone Wars he ran the secret Strategic Advisory Cell, which oversaw the early Death Star project and Orson Krennic's rise. He also managed the Senate floor for Palpatine, pushing the attempted occupation of Mandalore and the bank deregulation and clone funding bills. When the Empire was declared he stayed at Palpatine's side and presided over the burning of fallen Jedi's lightsabers, then served as Grand Vizier and ran the huge Imperial bureaucracy. After Palpatine died at Endor, Amedda was left as a powerless figurehead under Gallius Rax.

Amedda stays on as the nominal, powerless head of Coruscant's provisional government while the New Republic restores democracy.
Nute Gunray is best remembered as the Trade Federation viceroy who blockaded and invaded Naboo, and whose greed made him a willing tool of Darth Sidious. He had already become viceroy when the Eriadu Conference emptied out the Federation's leadership, and with Sidious secretly behind him he took full control of the conglomerate. In 32 BBY he carried out the Sith Lord's plan: he blockaded Naboo, tried to kill the Jedi envoys Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, and occupied the planet to force Queen Amidala to sign a treaty. The crisis ended when Amidala captured him in her own throne room. He then went through four Supreme Court trials without being convicted, kept his wealth and his titles, and came out of it with a lasting grudge against Amidala. He put the Federation's droid armies behind Count Dooku's Separatists in exchange for her assassination, which failed. From Geonosis he watched the Clone Wars begin. During the war he schemed against Amidala on Rodia, was captured by the Republic, and escaped with Asajj Ventress's help. When Dooku and Grievous were dead, he fled with the Separatist Council to Mustafar expecting the peace Sidious had promised. Instead Darth Vader killed the whole council, and Gunray was the last to die, begging for his life. Imperial records later claimed he had taken his own life.
Gunray has become Viceroy of the Trade Federation, with Darth Sidious quietly steering his rise.

Bail Organa led the loyal opposition in the Senate for decades and quietly helped found the Rebel Alliance. He was born Bail Prestor and gave up his family name to marry Breha Organa, heir to Alderaan's throne. After the Invasion of Naboo in 32 BBY he replaced Bail Antilles in the Galactic Senate, where he became known for his honesty and his strong defense of democracy. He worked alongside Mon Mothma, Onaconda Farr and Padmé Amidala, and was one of the Jedi Order's closest political friends. During the Clone Wars he pushed for relief missions, refugee aid and peace efforts, but hawkish rivals kept blocking him. He signed the Petition of 2,000 against Palpatine's growing power, only to watch the Republic become the Empire. In the chaos after Order 66 he helped Yoda and Obi-Wan Kenobi escape, and he and Breha adopted Padmé's infant daughter Leia, hiding her from her father, Darth Vader. Publicly he stayed in the Imperial Senate. In secret he used Alderaan's wealth to fund resistance cells, recruited Ahsoka Tano to coordinate them, and helped merge them into the Alliance to Restore the Republic in 2 BBY. On the eve of Scarif he sent Leia to find Kenobi and went home to warn his people that war was coming. He died days later when the Death Star destroyed Alderaan, and the rebellion he helped build remembered him as one of its great martyrs.

Jango Fett was the most feared bounty hunter of the Republic's last years, and the man whose DNA became the Grand Army of the Republic. After his parents were murdered, the Mandalorians took him in as a foundling. He trained under a mentor named Jaste, received his own armor and fought in the Mandalorian Civil Wars. He then left to work as a bounty hunter. Over many years he built his reputation with jobs like the Phaedra hunt for Jabba the Hutt and the search for the stolen Hope of Glee Anselm. He also stole the Firespray patrol craft that became Slave I and mentored the young Cad Bane. Soon after the Invasion of Naboo, Darth Tyranus chose him as the clone template on Kamino. His price was twenty million credits and one unaltered clone, whom he raised as his son Boba and taught the family trade. Ten years later he hired Zam Wesell for the plot to kill Senator Padmé Amidala. When she failed, he silenced her with a saberdart, and that dart led Obi-Wan Kenobi to Kamino and then to Geonosis. Jango died in the First Battle of Geonosis in 22 BBY. He shot down Jedi Master Coleman Trebor, but Mace Windu beheaded him. His legacy lived on in the millions of clones who carried out Order 66 and in Boba, who took over his ship and armor and became the galaxy's top bounty hunter in his turn.
Jango Fett is born. He is later tied to the Mandalorian colony world of Concord Dawn, though he likes to keep his true origins vague.

Soon after the Invasion of Naboo, Jango wins a competition set up by Dooku. On the moons of Bogden, Darth Tyranus hires him as the genetic template for the clone army being grown on Kamino.
On top of his twenty-million-credit fee, Jango asks for one unaltered clone. He names the boy Boba and raises him as his son in Tipoca City.

General Grievous was the Confederacy's most feared battlefield commander during the Clone Wars. He was a four-armed cyborg who hunted Jedi and kept their lightsabers as trophies. Born Qymaen jai Sheelal, he was a sniper by the age of eight. He rose to become a legendary warlord of the Kaleesh and took the name Grievous during his people's brutal war against the Yam'rii of Huk. When the Republic and the Jedi stepped in on the Yam'rii side, the sanctions that followed starved his people, and he swore revenge. He went on to serve the InterGalactic Banking Clan as an enforcer and slowly traded his body for machine parts. Then a shuttle crash, secretly arranged by Count Dooku, left him barely alive, and Separatist surgeons rebuilt him almost entirely. Only his brain, eyes, spinal cord and a few vital organs survived. Dooku trained him in lightsaber combat, and he became Supreme Martial Commander of the Separatist Droid Armies. Across the war he led countless campaigns, killed many Jedi and fought repeated duels with his nemesis, Obi-Wan Kenobi. In the war's final days in 19 BBY he led the attack on Coruscant and captured Chancellor Palpatine. After Dooku's death he became acting leader of the Separatists and fled to Utapau. There Kenobi tracked him down and killed him, and the Confederacy soon collapsed.
Qymaen jai Sheelal is born in the wilds of Kalee while the Kaleesh are fighting a war against the insectoid Yam'rii of Huk.
His father teaches him to shoot an Outland rifle. By the age of eight he is serving as a sniper and has already killed forty enemies.
He rises quickly to become a feared warlord and takes the name Grievous. He gathers Kalee's elite Izvoshra warriors as his personal bodyguard.
Grievous drives the Yam'rii off Kalee and takes the war to the Huk worlds. His successes catch the attention of Dooku and Darth Sidious.
The Republic and the Jedi take the Yam'rii side. The sanctions that follow starve hundreds of thousands of Kaleesh, and Grievous swears vengeance.
Grievous becomes an enforcer for the InterGalactic Banking Clan and commands its droid army. He is forbidden to keep the Izvoshra, so he has the IG-100 MagnaGuards built and trains them himself.
With the Sith's encouragement, Grievous begins replacing parts of his body with cybernetic upgrades.
Dooku secretly sabotages his shuttle and blames the Jedi for the crash. Separatist and Geonosian surgeons rebuild the dying warlord as an almost entirely mechanical four-armed cyborg and alter his mind without his knowledge.

Kenobi confronts him, cuts off two of his arms and chases him across the sinkhole city. He kills Grievous by firing a blaster into his organic gut-sack, and the Clone Wars end soon after.
Wilhuff Tarkin was the cold architect of the Empire's rule by terror and the man who turned the Death Star on Alderaan. He came from a hard-edged Eriaduan dynasty that trained its heirs as hunters, and he made his name early by brutally crushing pirates in the Seswenna. After service with the Republic's Judicial Forces he became governor of Eriadu under Sheev Palpatine's patronage. He joined the Republic Navy when the Clone Wars broke out. As a captain he survived capture and torture in the Citadel on Lola Sayu, and the ordeal left him with a lasting regard for Anakin Skywalker and deep contempt for Jedi generalship. Promoted to admiral and then Adjutant General, he prosecuted Ahsoka Tano for the Jedi Temple bombing and pushed for her execution. Under the Empire he helped replace the clone army with conscripts, became the first Grand Moff with authority over the Outer Rim, and hunted rebels on worlds like Lothal. He also took control of the Death Star project from Orson Krennic. Convinced that fear alone could hold the galaxy together, he destroyed Jedha City, Scarif and Alderaan. He was still sure of victory when Luke Skywalker destroyed the station over Yavin, killing him with it.
Born into the wealthy and demanding Tarkin family, and raised in the family compound to value discipline and obedience.
At sixteen, he finishes his wilderness training under his grand-uncle Jova by outwitting a pack of predators at the Carrion Spike. His training then moves on to space combat and piloting.
Serving with the Outland Regions Security Force, he works out the pattern of the pirate Q'anah's raids, captures her ship and sends her crew slowly into a sun.
He attends the Sullust Sector Spacefarers Academy, where he meets Senator Palpatine, who helps him get into the Judicial Academy. He is later credited with saving his team during a mission to Halcyon.
He resigns his rank to go into politics, as Palpatine had once suggested.
With Palpatine's backing he becomes governor, drives immigrant communities off Eriadu, and helps undermine Chancellor Valorum around the Eriadu Conference.
Over a series of dinners he turns down Count Dooku's attempts to bring Eriadu into the Separatist cause, which was secretly a loyalty test set by Sidious. He then decides not to seek reelection.
When the Clone Wars begin he enlists as a captain and carries out covert missions for Chancellor Palpatine.
He commands the assault on Murkhana and is decorated after the Battle of Kamino.
He is captured with Even Piell while carrying half of the Nexus Route in his memory, and is tortured at the Citadel on Lola Sayu. A Jedi team rescues him, and he forms a mutual respect with Anakin Skywalker.
Now an admiral, he survives the Separatist rhydonium attack on the station Valor and writes a scathing report on Jedi command.
He joins the Strategic Advisory Cell's group overseeing the battle station project, which puts him in rivalry with Krennic, and he questions Galen Erso.

He tests the superlaser on Jedha City, takes command of the station from Krennic, and destroys the Scarif base during the rebel raid.
To make an example of the planet and pressure Princess Leia, he orders Alderaan destroyed.
He refuses to evacuate and is killed when Luke Skywalker destroys the Death Star.
Feared as the deadliest bounty hunter of the Clone Wars, Cad Bane was a cold, wide-brimmed gunslinger who would take any job for the right price and made a specialty of beating Jedi. He started out as a street orphan named Colby who was pulled into the gangster Lazlo's crew. After Lazlo was killed, he went after revenge, gunned down a marshal, served time on Torano and later killed his childhood friend Niro. Mentored for a short time by Jango Fett, he built his reputation working for Darth Maul before the Battle of Naboo and became the top hunter in the galaxy after Jango died. For Darth Sidious he stole a holocron from the Jedi Temple, forced Anakin Skywalker to unlock a kyber memory crystal and kidnapped Force-sensitive children. For the Hutts he took the Senate hostage to free Ziro, and later fought Obi-Wan Kenobi and Quinlan Vos to a standstill on Teth. He came through Count Dooku's deadly tournament in the Box and led the plot to kidnap Chancellor Palpatine, but was arrested once Kenobi's cover as Rako Hardeen was blown. He kept working under the Empire and hunted the clone girl Omega, but Fennec Shand and Clone Force 99 took her back from him. In 9 ABY he was an enforcer for the Pyke Syndicate on Tatooine, where his former protégé Boba Fett beat him in a duel and killed him in the streets of Mos Espa.
Born as Colby. He never knew his parents and grew up an orphan on the streets of a crime-ridden city alongside his friend Niro.

Hired again to find Ziro after he escapes, Bane tracks him to Teth and finds him already dead. He fights Obi-Wan Kenobi and Quinlan Vos there and gets away.
Bane lets himself be locked up so he can break Moralo Eval out of the Republic's Central Detention Center. With help from Boba Fett and Bossk they escape, taking "Rako Hardeen" with them.
Bane kills Bulduga for his hat on Serenno, survives Count Dooku's tournament in the Box and oversees the plot to kidnap Chancellor Palpatine. The plan fails because Hardeen is Kenobi in disguise, and Bane is arrested.

Bane works as the Pyke Syndicate's enforcer on Tatooine while they push the spice trade into Mos Espa. He shoots down Cobb Vanth and taunts his old protégé Boba Fett.
During the fight for Mos Espa, Bane duels Boba Fett in the street. Fett beats him and runs him through with his gaffi stick, killing him.
Jar Jar Binks is best remembered as the clumsy, good-hearted outcast whose actions helped save his world and then, without his meaning to, helped end the Republic. Boss Nass had banished him from Otoh Gunga for wrecking a heyblibber submarine. During the Trade Federation's invasion of Naboo in 32 BBY, Qui-Gon Jinn saved his life and he attached himself to the Jedi. He guided them through the planet's core, travelled with Queen Amidala to Tatooine and Coruscant, and then pointed her to the Gungan Grand Army. That tip led to the alliance between Gungans and Naboo that won the Battle of Naboo, and Jar Jar himself fought in it as a newly promoted Bombad General. He later became a Junior Representative in the Galactic Senate. In 22 BBY, while filling in for Senator Amidala, he proposed that Chancellor Palpatine be given emergency powers to raise a clone army. That motion started the Clone Wars. During the war he flew diplomatic and field missions: he helped secure supplies from Toydaria, saved Padmé on Rodia, took command after a shuttle crash on Florrum, brought the Gungan army to Mon Cala, and posed as Boss Lyonie to capture General Grievous. He also rescued Queen Julia of Bardotta alongside Mace Windu. After Padmé's funeral and the rise of the Empire, his own people shunned him for his part in Palpatine's rise. By 5 ABY he was a street clown in Theed, disliked by adults but loved by children. There he befriended the burned refugee orphan Mapo and took him on as his clowning apprentice.

Grand Admiral Thrawn is the Empire's most feared strategist, a commander who beat his enemies by studying their art and culture until he could predict how they would act. He was born into the small, poor Kivu family, and his talent got him adopted into the powerful Mitth family as a merit adoptive. At the Taharim Academy he was accused of cheating after posting a record score on a combat simulation, then cleared himself by repeating the tactic in a live exercise. He rose through the Chiss Expansionary Defense Fleet, hunting pirates and fighting the Vagaari, a campaign that cost him his adoptive brother Thrass. Near the end of the Clone Wars he fought alongside Anakin Skywalker at Mokivj. He then broke the Nikardun Destiny at Primea, defused a Grysk-backed plot to start a Chiss civil war, and led an alliance of neighboring nations to victory at Sunrise.

The hidden architect of the early Rebellion, Luthen Rael spent nearly two decades running a secret spy network against the Empire while posing as a refined antiques dealer on Coruscant. Born under the name Lear, he served as an Imperial Army sergeant until he was ordered to take part in a massacre around 18 BBY. Sickened by it, he deserted and took with him a young survivor he named Kleya Marki, who grew up to be his second-in-command. From about 15 BBY he built the web of operatives, informants and financiers that the ISB would come to call "Axis." Mon Mothma's money funded it, he armed Saw Gerrera's Partisans, and he ran a mole, Lonni Jung, inside the ISB itself. In 5 BBY he recruited Cassian Andor from Ferrix and sent him on the Aldhani heist, a raid meant to provoke the Empire into a crackdown that would turn people against it. Rael was ruthless. He let Anto Kreegyr's fighters walk into a trap to protect his source, had Tay Kolma eliminated, and shot Jung once his cover was blown. When Dedra Meero finally identified him in 1 BBY, he stabbed himself rather than be captured. Imperial medics kept him alive for interrogation, but Kleya slipped into the hospital and let him die. Before his fall he had passed Jung's warning about Krennic's secret weapon to the Alliance, and the Rebellion he had sacrificed everything for went on to win without him.
Lear, an Imperial Army sergeant from Fondor serving as a swamp trooper, has a crisis of conscience during a massacre. He deserts and takes with him a young survivor he later names Kleya Marki.

Jung warns him that the ISB has set a trap for Anto Kreegyr's attack on Spellhaus. Rael refuses to let Jung quit, persuades Saw Gerrera to let Kreegyr's group be wiped out so the mole stays hidden, and escapes an Imperial Arrestor cruiser on the way out.
He returns to Ferrix intending to kill Andor at Maarva Andor's funeral. Instead, after the riot, he accepts Andor into the rebellion.
Rael attends Leida Mothma's wedding on Chandrila as the curator of a gift. While there he has Cinta Kaz eliminate Tay Kolma, who had become a security risk.

Jung tells him about Krennic's secret weapon project and Galen Erso. Rael then shoots Jung and passes the intelligence to Kleya to send on to the Alliance.
Cornered by Dedra Meero in his gallery, Rael stabs himself. Imperial medics keep him alive at Lina Soh Hospital, but Kleya infiltrates the building and disconnects his life support, and he dies.
Obi-Wan Kenobi is remembered as the Jedi who trained two generations of Skywalkers. He was the father Anakin rebelled against and the mentor who later set Luke on his path. As a rule-breaking youngling he was apprenticed to the unorthodox Qui-Gon Jinn, and together they took missions to Mandalore, where he fell for Duchess Satine Kryze, and to Teth and Pijal. At Naboo he watched Darth Maul kill his master, then cut the Sith in half, which made him a Jedi Knight. Keeping his promise to the dying Qui-Gon, he took the young Anakin as his Padawan. In the Clone Wars he served as a Jedi General and Council member, earned the nickname "the Negotiator," fought beside Commander Cody, and lost Satine to Maul's revenge. He ended the war by killing General Grievous on Utapau. After Order 66 he faced Anakin, by then Darth Vader, on Mustafar and left him broken. He then went into exile on Tatooine as the hermit Ben, watching over the infant Luke. He left the desert once to rescue a kidnapped young Leia, a mission that brought him face to face with Vader again. Years later he killed Maul for good.

For decades Bib Fortuna was the pale, whispering gatekeeper at Jabba the Hutt's side. As Jabba's majordomo he ran the daily business of the Tatooine palace and decided who got to see the crime lord, while secretly hating his master and waiting for a chance to kill him and take over his empire. He had grown rich selling fellow Twi'leks into slavery, and he beat his rival Bidlo Kwerve for the majordomo job. He held the post by the time of the 32 BBY Boonta Eve Classic, where he woke a dozing Jabba for the end of Anakin Skywalker's winning race. In the early days of the Empire he paid Cid to recover the young rancor Muchi, a job Clone Force 99 carried out. He also handed out work to Han Solo and Chewbacca, stood beside Jabba when Darth Vader came to hire bounty hunters, and waited impatiently for Boba Fett to deliver the frozen Han Solo. Luke Skywalker got past him with a Jedi mind trick, and he survived the destruction of the Khetanna at the Great Pit of Carkoon despite being presumed dead. He then took over Jabba's palace as a bloated crime lord in his own right.

Tobias Beckett was the veteran thief and gunslinger who took a young Han Solo under his wing, then betrayed him, and taught him the hard way that nobody in the underworld can be trusted. A career criminal working for the Crimson Dawn syndicate in the early years of the Empire, Beckett ran a small crew with his lover Val and the pilot Rio Durant. He was notorious for the death of the bounty hunter Aurra Sing, though he claimed he only pushed her and the fall did the rest. While posing as an Imperial captain during the Mimban campaign, he crossed paths with Solo, first jailing him and then taking him and Chewbacca aboard. The botched coaxium heist on Vandor cost Beckett both Val and Rio. To make up the loss to Dryden Vos, he led a daring raid on the Kessel spice mines aboard the Millennium Falcon. On Savareen he sold out Solo's plan to Vos, then turned on Vos too and tried to take the coaxium for himself. Solo shot him before he could draw.

Gial Ackbar was the admiral who commanded the rebel fleet at Endor, the man who saw the Emperor's trap for what it was, and one of the few commanders to serve through every major war from the Clone Wars to the First Order's rise. He started out as Coral City's representative on the Calamari Council and rose to captain of the Mon Calamari Guard. In the Clone Wars he protected the young Prince Lee-Char and guided him through the Separatist-backed civil war on his homeworld, which ended with Lee-Char crowned king.

Maul was the Sith assassin who announced the return of the Sith to the Jedi after a thousand years of hiding. He then spent more than three decades feeding on his hatred for the Jedi, for Obi-Wan Kenobi and for the master who threw him away. Darth Sidious took him from his mother, Talzin, as a child and made him into a weapon. Maul trained in secret, hunting beasts and even a lone Padawan, until the Invasion of Naboo in 32 BBY finally let him loose. He duelled Qui-Gon Jinn on Tatooine and later killed him on Naboo, but Kenobi cut him in half and left him for dead. He survived, broken and half-mad, in the junk pits of Lotho Minor until his brother Savage Opress found him during the Clone Wars. Talzin's magick restored his mind and gave him new legs. Maul then became a crime lord. He took over Mandalore through Death Watch and forced Black Sun, the Pykes and the Hutts into his Shadow Collective. Sidious struck back by killing Savage, and Talzin was killed soon after, but Maul survived both blows and a final clash with Ahsoka Tano during the Siege of Mandalore. Under the Empire he ruled the underworld from the shadows as the head of Crimson Dawn, working through Dryden Vos and later Qi'ra. His hunt for Sith secrets on Malachor pulled him into the lives of Ezra Bridger and Kanan Jarrus. His obsession finally led him to Kenobi's hiding place on Tatooine, where their last duel ended with a single stroke. Maul died believing the boy Kenobi was protecting would avenge them both.

Owen Lars is best known as the stern uncle who raised Luke Skywalker in hiding on a remote moisture farm. The son of Cliegg Lars, he became Anakin Skywalker's stepbrother when his father freed and married Shmi Skywalker. In 22 BBY he watched that family fall apart: Shmi was taken and killed by Tusken Raiders, Anakin came back in a rage to recover her body, and a grieving Cliegg died soon afterward. Owen then took over the homestead and married Beru Whitesun. In 19 BBY, after some reluctance, he agreed to adopt Anakin's infant son. He believed the Jedi had destroyed his stepbrother, so he spent years keeping Obi-Wan Kenobi away from Luke, hiding the boy's heritage and keeping him busy with farm work. He stood up to the Inquisitor Reva when she came for Luke, and he survived a beating by the bounty hunter Black Krrsantan. His caution could not keep the galaxy out forever. In 1 BBY he bought the droids C-3PO and R2-D2, and stormtroopers hunting the stolen Death Star plans tracked R2-D2 to the farm and killed Owen and Beru. Their deaths sent Luke off with Kenobi toward the Rebellion and the Battle of Yavin.
Owen is born to the moisture farmer Cliegg Lars and his wife Aika, who met on a Core World. After Aika dies, father and son move to the Lars homestead near Anchorhead on Tatooine.
On a trip to Anchorhead, Owen meets Beru Whitesun, a third-generation moisture farmer, and the two start dating.

Owen confronts Kenobi in Anchorhead, and then the Third Sister holds him at lightsaber-point in the town square while hunting a Jedi. He gives nothing away.
Warned that the Third Sister is hunting Luke, Owen and Beru fight her at the farm. She eventually spares Luke and brings him back. Afterward Owen makes peace with Kenobi and offers to let him meet the boy someday.
During a severe drought, Kenobi secretly shields the farm from Jabba's water-tax collectors and rescues Luke after the boy sneaks out to steal water.
A year after the drought, Owen angrily tells Kenobi to stop interfering. The Wookiee bounty hunter Krrsantan then kidnaps and tortures Owen. Kenobi and Luke, flying the repaired skyhopper, save him.
Owen tells Beru that twelve-year-old Luke is like a son to him and says he will not let him join the Imperial Academy. After Kenobi rescues Luke from a krayt dragon, Owen thanks him but warns him never to come back.
Owen buys C-3PO and R2-D2 from Jawas. He tells Luke that Obi-Wan died around the same time as his father and makes him wait another year to enroll at the Academy.
Stormtroopers searching for the stolen Death Star plans track R2-D2 to the homestead. They interrogate and kill Owen and Beru and burn the farm. The loss pushes Luke to leave Tatooine with Kenobi.
Hondo Ohnaka is the galaxy's most charming opportunist, a pirate whose career lasted decades and who kept turning up, for a price, on the edges of its biggest wars. Sold into slavery by his con-artist parents, he escaped, learned the criminal trade as an advisor to Porla the Hutt, then betrayed his master and fled with a band of fellow servants. He conned a collector out of a fleet of ships and built the Ohnaka Gang into a feared crew based on Florrum. During the Clone Wars he captured Count Dooku and then Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker, hoping to ransom all three. The plan failed, and it made him a lasting enemy in Dooku, who later sent General Grievous to destroy his base. Hondo swung between foe and ally of the Jedi: he raided Felucian villages, kidnapped Ahsoka Tano, and then helped her and a group of younglings escape Grievous. He armed the Onderon rebels and fought off Maul and Savage Opress. After the Empire broke up his gang he worked alone as a smuggler and bounty chaser, became an unlikely friend to Ezra Bridger and the Spectres, and helped free Lothal.

Orson Krennic was the ambitious Imperial director who pushed the Death Star from a stalled Separatist blueprint to a working planet-killer, and died under its fire on Scarif. A gifted, charming architect, he met the scientist Galen Erso in the Republic Futures Program and later used that friendship for his own ends. During the Clone Wars he joined the secret Special Weapons Group, got the Erso family out of Separatist captivity on Vallt and brought the Geonosians in to build the station. Under the Empire he drew Galen into Project Celestial Power, claiming it was about clean energy while secretly turning his kyber research into a weapon. His career rose and fell with every setback and with his running feud with Wilhuff Tarkin. After the Ersos fled, Krennic tracked them to Lah'mu, where his death troopers killed Lyra and he took Galen back to finish the superlaser. In the Empire's last years before the Galactic Civil War, he set up the Ghorman project to seize kalkite, fought Grand Admiral Thrawn for funding and kept the project secret. In the end it got away from him. After he ordered the test that wiped out Jedha City, rebels stole the station's plans from Scarif.

Dryden Vos is best known as the refined, lethal face of the Crimson Dawn syndicate, a crime lord who hosted the galaxy's elite aboard his yacht First Light while secretly answering to Maul. He rose through the underworld during the Clone Wars as a Crimson Dawn leader within Maul's Shadow Collective, and in the war's last days he got Maul's warning to go into hiding before the Empire took power. In the early Imperial years he offered the hunted former Sith a way off Janix in exchange for Maul removing Crimson Dawn's boss Rintero, then led the extraction himself under stormtrooper fire. He took over the syndicate as its public figurehead, but Maul stayed in control behind him. Vos bought the young Qi'ra, branded her with the syndicate's mark, trained her in Teräs Käsi and made her his top lieutenant. In 10 BBY, after Tobias Beckett's crew lost a coaxium shipment on Vandor, Vos sent them to raid the Kessel mines instead, a job that brought Han Solo into his orbit. When the deal fell apart over Savareen, Vos turned on Han, and Qi'ra killed him in his own study. She then used his signet ring to report his death to Maul, blamed it on Beckett, and took his place.

Tynnra Pamlo lived a double life in the Imperial Senate. She sat openly for Taris while secretly serving as Minister of Education in the Rebel Alliance's Civil Government. In the first days of the Empire she joined Bail Organa and Riyo Chuchi in fighting the Imperial Defense Recruitment Bill, arguing that the galaxy had more urgent needs than a costly new army. That effort collapsed when Palpatine used Admiral Rampart's destruction of Tipoca City as a reason to endorse the bill himself. In the years that followed, Pamlo worked with Rebel Intelligence and Airen Cracken. She gathered reports of Imperial atrocities and spread counterpropaganda, and she took part in the Organas' strategy dinners on Alderaan, which were disguised as social evenings. Although she opposed Palpatine, she was one of the Alliance's most cautious voices and would not drag her homeworld into open war. When Jyn Erso told the Alliance High Command about the Death Star, Pamlo argued for disbanding the Alliance rather than attacking Scarif, dismissing the plan as nothing but hope. After Rogue One went ahead anyway and the Galactic Civil War began, she returned to Coruscant, publicly condemned the battle station and resigned her Senate seat.
As senator for Taris in the new Imperial Senate, Pamlo joins Bail Organa in opposing Admiral Rampart's plan to replace the clone army with conscripts. She argues that the war is over and that the galaxy has more pressing problems.
Pamlo and Organa get Mas Amedda to table the vote again until provisions for retiring clones are clearly defined.
Pamlo watches in shock as Riyo Chuchi reveals footage of Rampart destroying Tipoca City. Palpatine then appears, has Rampart arrested and uses the scandal to endorse the Defense Recruitment Bill, which marks the start of the stormtrooper era.
While still in the Senate, Pamlo becomes Minister of Education in the Alliance's Civil Government. She works with Rebel Intelligence and Airen Cracken, collecting reports of Imperial atrocities on Lasan, Geonosis and Ghorman and producing counterpropaganda.
Pamlo attends Leia's Day of Demand ceremony on Alderaan, where Queen Breha thanks her personally for coming.

Pamlo is part of the Alliance leadership that plans to extract Galen Erso. She and Organa intend to bring him before the Senate to testify about the Empire's weapon.
After hearing from Jyn Erso and Cassian Andor, Pamlo asks what chance the rebels have against a planet-killing weapon. She calls for the Alliance to disband and scatter, and she rejects the raid on Scarif because it rests on nothing but hope.
After Rogue One's unsanctioned attack on Scarif starts the Galactic Civil War, Pamlo returns to Coruscant, publicly condemns the Death Star and resigns her Senate seat.
Marrok is best known as the silent, armored duelist who fought Ahsoka Tano twice during Morgan Elsbeth's plot to bring back Grand Admiral Thrawn. He was raised in the Jedi Order, but after the Jedi Purge he became an Inquisitor for the Empire under the title First Brother. He knelt before Darth Vader when the Inquisitorius was presented to its new master on Nur. A few years later, he and the Eleventh Brother hunted Maul and the fugitive Jedi Eeko-Dio Daki and Devon Izara across Janix. Using his rare gift of psychometry, he tracked his prey and met Maul blade to blade more than once, until Daki pushed him off a ruined structure into the jungle. He survived the fall of the Empire and became a mercenary for Elsbeth, working alongside Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati. In 9 ABY he held off Ahsoka at the Corellian shipyards while Elsbeth's forces stole a hyperdrive core. He then flew with Hati against Ahsoka's shuttle over Seatos. In the forests below, Ahsoka struck him down. His armor released a shrieking green mist and collapsed empty, which left his true nature a mystery. Decades later, historians could not agree whether the figure in the Corellian recordings had really been an Inquisitor.
Marrok is raised in the Jedi Order. The dates of his birth and his time as a Jedi are not recorded in canon.
After Order 66, Marrok is chosen for the Inquisitorius and given the title First Brother. His job is to hunt the Jedi who survived the Purge.
In the Fortress Inquisitorius on Nur, he kneels with the Eleventh Brother, the Fourth Sister and Barriss Offee as the Grand Inquisitor presents them to their new master, Darth Vader.
After Janix's Tactical Defense Force calls in the Empire, the First Brother arrives and interrogates Chief Klyce and Captain Brander Lawson. He then uses psychometry to read the aftermath of Maul's fight with two hidden Jedi.
He attacks Eeko-Dio Daki and Devon Izara at Lawson's home. He later chases Izara onto a hovertrain, where Maul joins the fight and the two cut him loose in a tunnel. He reports to Vader that Maul is more dangerous than expected.
Joined by the Eleventh Brother, he duels Maul in the caverns of Janix, and the two Inquisitors kill the Nightbrother Scorn. Maul escapes by bringing the cave down on them, and they are pulled from the rubble.
He survives an ambush that goes wrong when the informant Rheena Sul turns on the Empire. He follows the fugitives across the city, destroys Maul's droid Spybot during a duel over a lake of acid, and warns Vader that the group is headed his way.
In jungle ruins, he and the Eleventh Brother corner Izara, then fight her and Daki together. Daki pushes the First Brother off the ruins into the jungle, but he survives.
Now a mercenary, Marrok serves Morgan Elsbeth alongside Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati. He searches the ruins on Arcana with Skoll for the star map to Peridea.
At the Santhe Shipyards, he duels Ahsoka Tano with the help of an HK-87 assassin droid while Elsbeth's forces steal a hyperdrive core for the Eye of Sion. Shin Hati picks him up once the transport has escaped.
Flying his Fiend fighter in Hati's squadron, he attacks Ahsoka's T-6 shuttle and chases it through a pod of purrgil down to Seatos.
Sent with Hati to delay Ahsoka and Sabine Wren in the forest, Marrok duels Ahsoka a final time and is cut down. Green mist bursts from his armor, which collapses empty.
In The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire, the historian Beaumont Kin studies the Corellian security recordings and cannot confirm whether the armored figure was a real Inquisitor.
Asajj Ventress is best known as Count Dooku's twin-bladed assassin during the Clone Wars, and later as one of the war's most unlikely redemption stories. Given away as an infant by her Nightsister clan, she grew up a slave on Rattatak until the stranded Jedi Knight Ky Narec rescued her and trained her as his Padawan. When pirates killed him, she turned to the dark side, took the planet from its warlords, and caught Dooku's eye. As his Sith acolyte she led Separatist forces, framed Obi-Wan Kenobi on Cato Neimoidia, killed Jedi Master Tholme, kidnapped Jabba's son Rotta, and fought Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker again and again. Dooku abandoned her on Darth Sidious's orders. She went home to Dathomir, helped Mother Talzin plot against him and trained Savage Opress, then watched Grievous slaughter her sisters. After that she drifted into bounty hunting and made uneasy alliances: she saved Kenobi from Maul and helped Ahsoka Tano clear her name. In 19 BBY she and Quinlan Vos tried to assassinate Dooku and fell in love along the way. When Vos slid to the dark side, she gave her life on Christophsis to save him, and that sacrifice brought him back. Talzin's magic later returned her to life. In the Imperial era she went back to bounty hunting, helped the clone Omega on Pabu, and then left her old life behind until the young Jedi Lyco Strata pulled her into new adventures.
Born into Mother Talzin's Nightsister clan.
To protect the clan, Talzin has Asajj's mother surrender the infant to the Siniteen criminal Hal'Sted, who takes her as a slave to Rattatak.
Hal'Sted dies during a pirate uprising. Asajj, now six, shows her Force power by hurling away a Weequay attacker, and the stranded Jedi Knight Ky Narec takes her on as his Padawan.
After about ten years defending Rattatak together, Narec is shot dead by pirates. Asajj kills his attackers with his lightsaber and turns to the dark side.
She wages a war of vengeance against the warlords and takes the planet for herself, but her attempt on Osika Kirske fails and she is forced to fight as a gladiator.
Dooku kills Kirske and recruits her. She pledges herself to him on Serenno, receives her curved red lightsabers, and becomes a Separatist commander.
On Dooku's orders she tracks down his sister Jenza, kills the Republic Intelligence officer Raz Fellidrone, and then kills Jenza herself.
Sent as the Separatist emissary, she frames Obi-Wan Kenobi for a bombing, manipulates the young guard Ketar Nor, and duels Anakin Skywalker while trying to lure away the initiate Mill Alibeth.

During the second battle of Christophsis she takes a lightning attack from Dooku that was meant for Vos. She dies having embraced the light, and her death brings Vos back from the dark side.
Vos and Kenobi return her body to Dathomir. In the spirit world, Talzin's voice offers her life again at the cost of her heart's desire, and she accepts.
Back to bounty hunting under the Empire, she briefly helps the clone Omega on Pabu and teaches her about the Force.
She leaves her old life for a quiet job as a security guard on a remote asteroid.
She helps the young Jedi Lyco Strata escape stormtroopers and an Inquisitor, then goes on further missions with him.
Babu Frik is known for the droid job that helped decide the war against the Sith: he could reprogram almost any droid, however well protected. A tiny black-market droidsmith, he ran a workshop for the Spice Runners of Kijimi for decades. There he repaired the gang's droids, including EV-6B6 for a young Poe Dameron and Zorii Bliss, and he helped Poe slip away when Poe left the gang to join the New Republic. Babu lived through the First Order occupation of Kijimi. In 35 ABY Poe brought the Resistance heroes back to him, and Babu got past C-3PO's programming so the droid could read out the Sith inscription on the Blade of Ochi. The procedure wiped C-3PO's memory. Babu then alerted Jannah's band on Kef Bir to help the heroes, and he escaped with Zorii just before a Sith Eternal Star Destroyer destroyed Kijimi. The two joined Lando Calrissian's Citizens' Fleet and flew a Y-wing at the Battle of Exegol, where they helped destroy a Xyston-class Star Destroyer. Afterward they celebrated the victory on Ajan Kloss, and Babu formally joined the Resistance.
Babu Frik is born around this year. Canon gives only an approximate date.

Beru Whitesun Lars is best remembered as the warm, steady aunt who raised Luke Skywalker as her own son on a remote moisture farm. As a young woman she dreamed of opening a café in Anchorhead, helped locate and deprogram the tracking chips of freed slaves, and introduced Shmi Skywalker to Cliegg Lars, whose son Owen she later married. She served blue milk at Shmi's funeral during Anakin's visit on the eve of the Clone Wars. When Obi-Wan Kenobi brought the infant Luke to the homestead at the end of the war, Beru insisted they raise him. Over the next nineteen years she often took Luke's side against her overprotective husband. In 9 BBY she took up a blaster rifle to defend the farm from the Inquisitor Reva Sevander, holding her off long enough for Luke to escape. As Luke grew restless, Beru pressed Owen to let him leave for the Academy, reminding him that the boy had too much of his father in him. In 1 BBY the family bought the droids R2-D2 and C-3PO, and stormtroopers tracing the stolen Death Star plans killed Beru and Owen and burned their home.

He tested her in a staged fight and accepted her into his service, and she became one of his most devoted followers, running shipyards on Corellia. Long after the Empire fell, she kept Corvus under her rule. In 9 ABY she killed a New Republic envoy and burned the planet's forests. Around that time she hired Din Djarin to kill Ahsoka Tano, but the two teamed up against her. Tano beat her in a duel and forced her to reveal where the map to Thrawn was hidden. Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati freed her from New Republic custody. She took the map, finished the hyperspace ring Eye of Sion and jumped to Peridea, where she was reunited with Thrawn and the Great Mothers.

Mon Mothma is the political architect of the Rebellion: a senator who spent nearly two decades inside the Imperial system while secretly building the movement that would bring it down. She was one of the youngest senators in Republic history, and during the Clone Wars she led the loyalist opposition to the war. Alongside Bail Organa, Padmé Amidala and Onaconda Farr, she fought expanded military spending and the Chancellor's growing emergency powers, and she watched Farr die of poison in the middle of that fight. After Palpatine declared the Empire she survived the arrests of dissenting senators and tried to limit his rule by law with the Imperial Rebirth Act. When that failed, she and Organa quietly met Saw Gerrera and set up the network that became the Alliance. For years she led a double life, moving money to Luthen Rael's rebels behind the front of a society hostess. Her marriage grew cold, and she paid for her cover by promising her daughter to a gangster's son. Her lifelong friend Tay Kolma was killed to protect that secret. After the Ghorman Massacre she denounced Palpatine as a genocidal monster on the Senate floor and fled. Her resignation led to the formal founding of the Alliance to Restore the Republic, with Mothma as its Chancellor.

"
Padmé Amidala is best known as the teenage queen who stood up to the Trade Federation's invasion of Naboo, and later as a senator who argued for democracy and peace while the Republic fell apart around her. She grew up in a modest family, went on relief missions as a child, and entered public service young. Elected monarch at fourteen, she took the regnal name Amidala and often posed as one of her own handmaidens for protection. When the Trade Federation occupied her world, she escaped the blockade with two Jedi and met a slave boy named Anakin Skywalker on Tatooine. She then called for a vote of no confidence in Chancellor Valorum, which helped Palpatine take power. After that she returned home, won the Gungans over as allies, and personally captured Viceroy Nute Gunray to free Naboo. She served two terms as queen and then became Naboo's senator, where she led the opposition to the Military Creation Act and survived repeated attempts on her life. During the Separatist Crisis she fell in love with Anakin, her Jedi bodyguard, and married him in secret after the Battle of Geonosis. Through the Clone Wars she kept working for a negotiated peace. Her pregnancy fed Anakin's fear of losing her, and that fear helped drive him to the dark side. She saw the Republic become an Empire and confronted her husband on Mustafar, where he choked her. She died on Polis Massa after giving birth to the twins Luke and Leia, still insisting there was good in him, and her children would one day bring that good back out.

"Kit Fisto was one of the Jedi Order's finest swordsmen, remembered as much for his easy grin in battle as for his skill with a blade. Already a seasoned Jedi Master before the Clone Wars, he trained the Padawan Nahdar Vebb, took part in Mace Windu's rescue of kidnapped children on Oosalon, and joined missions such as the troubled expedition to an underwater research station on Tordus. He survived the arena massacre at Geonosis and then led clone troops in the first battle of the war. As a Jedi General and member of the Jedi High Council, he fought alongside Windu on Hissrich and was sent after the fugitive Nute Gunray. That hunt led him into General Grievous's fortress, where Vebb was killed but Fisto came close to beating the cyborg. He later oversaw the quarantine of the brain-worm-infested ship carrying Ahsoka Tano and Barriss Offee, flew in the starfighter strike that got the rescue team off Lola Sayu, and fought underwater on Mon Cala, where he was captured and tortured before helping restore the planet's alliance and crown Prince Lee-Char. In the war's last days he went with Windu, Agen Kolar and Saesee Tiin to arrest Chancellor Palpatine. Palpatine revealed himself as Darth Sidious and killed him within moments.
Kit Fisto is born on the ocean world of Glee Anselm. Canon gives no birth year. He is later taken into the Jedi Order.
Now a Jedi Master, Fisto is one of the Jedi who wait in reserve while Mace Windu lets himself be captured by the warlord Guattako, who kidnapped children to use as soldiers. By the time Fisto's group gets through the tunnels, Guattako is already dead.
An Anselmi official objects to Jedi involvement in the Republic-mediated peace talks after the Hope of Glee Anselm statue is stolen. He argues that a Nautolan like Fisto makes the Order biased, so the Republic hires bounty hunters instead.
Fisto takes the Mon Calamari Nahdar Vebb as his Padawan. Together with Mace Windu and Shaak Ti, they investigate the Axil Research Station on Tordus and fight to keep the sinking facility from being lost to the ocean depths.
Fisto is part of the Jedi assault team that storms the Petranaki Arena. He is one of the few survivors rescued by the new clone army, then leads clone troopers and Saber-class tanks for the rest of the battle.
With the Clone Wars under way, Fisto becomes a Jedi General with his own clone unit and fleet, and takes a seat on the Jedi High Council. Vebb passes his trials and becomes a Jedi Knight while Fisto is away at war.
Fisto serves in Mace Windu's squad on Hissrich. He protects the native population from Separatist drilling, saves Windu from the droid commander AD-W4, and fights his way into the droid base.
Fisto tracks the escaped Nute Gunray to the Vassek system, only to find the trail was a trap set by Dooku that leads into Grievous's fortress. Grievous kills Vebb and Commander Fil. Fisto cuts off one of the General's hands, recovers Vebb's lightsaber and escapes, bringing back the location of Grievous's lair.
Fisto is seen entering the Holocron Vault during Cad Bane's raid on the Temple. He is also among the Council members present when Todo 360 bursts into the communications center with a bomb.
From the Ord Cestus medical station, Fisto guides the infested ship carrying Ahsoka Tano and Barriss Offee in to dock. He then boards it once the Geonosian brain worms have been frozen, and finds both Padawans alive.
Fisto flies alongside Saesee Tiin and Adi Gallia in the starfighter assault that breaks through the Separatist defenses. The attack lets Plo Koon's gunship reach the survivors of the Citadel rescue and get them off the planet.
Fisto leads clone SCUBA troopers against the Separatist-backed Quarren and protects Prince Lee-Char. Riff Tamson captures and tortures him. He is freed in time to join the final battle and watch Lee-Char crowned king.
Fisto joins the Council's planning to guard Chancellor Palpatine at the Festival of Light on Naboo. As the war drags on, he takes a more active role on the Council.
After learning that Palpatine is a Sith Lord, Mace Windu brings Fisto, Agen Kolar and Saesee Tiin to arrest him. Darth Sidious cuts down Kolar and Tiin, and Fisto dies only moments later.
Breha Organa ruled Alderaan as its queen through the last years of the Republic and the rise of the Empire, and helped found the Rebel Alliance. As a teenager she nearly died during the Challenge of the Body on her Day of Demand. Her heart and lungs were replaced with pulmonodes, and she chose to leave them visible as a reminder that she had survived. Her injuries led her and her husband, Bail, to decide against having biological children. At the end of the Clone Wars they adopted the newborn daughter of Padmé Amidala and Anakin Skywalker, raised her as Princess Leia, and never told her who her birth parents were. Breha was also Alderaan's minister of education. Under the Empire she mentored young Alderaanians in their world's heritage, took in refugees, and used palace banquets as cover for strategy meetings that helped unite scattered resistance cells into the Alliance. She oversaw Leia's Day of Demand and later admitted to her daughter that she and Bail were part of the rebellion. When an Inquisitor had Leia kidnapped to draw out Obi-Wan Kenobi, she lived through the fear of losing her. Breha died in 1 BBY, alongside Bail, when the Death Star destroyed Alderaan, and the galaxy remembered them as martyrs of the rebellion.

Days after the Battle of Scarif, the Death Star destroys Alderaan, killing Breha and Bail.
R2-D2 is the astromech who keeps turning up at the turning points of galactic history.

Greedo is best remembered for the way he died: cornering Han Solo in the Mos Eisley cantina on Jabba the Hutt's behalf, only to be gunned down across the table before he could collect. His life leading up to that moment was a string of bad luck and overconfidence. As a hot-tempered youngster in Mos Espa he picked a fight with Anakin Skywalker, accusing him of cheating in the Boonta Eve Classic. During the Clone Wars he took a Trade Federation contract to kidnap the daughters of Pantora's Chairman Papanoida, but a smear of his own blood led the chairman to him, and Jabba forced Greedo to lead the Pantorans to the hostage. As one of Jabba's mid-level hired guns he ran scams such as freeing bounties so he could recapture them, joined Solo and Chewbacca on a doomed heist for a verillix urn on Corellia, shot Solo during the double-crosses that followed, and later botched a job on Mygeeto that nearly got him fed to a rancor. Sent after Solo as his last chance with the Hutt, he finally had the smuggler at blasterpoint in 1 BBY and gloated long enough to be shot dead. Even then his death earned him more fame than anything he did while alive.
Greedo is born a Rodian and later moves to Tatooine as a youth, growing up in Mos Espa.
After the Boonta Eve Classic, Greedo accuses young Anakin Skywalker of cheating to beat Sebulba and starts a fight. His friend Wald warns him that picking fights will lead to a bad end.
Now working for Jabba the Hutt, Greedo is hired by the Trade Federation to abduct Chairman Papanoida's daughters to pressure Pantora into joining the Separatists. Che Amanwe strikes him with an idol and leaves his blood on it.
Papanoida and his son Ion trace the blood to Greedo and present the evidence to Jabba. The Hutt forces Greedo to lead them to the Mos Eisley cantina, where the kidnappers are killed in a firefight. Greedo slips away.
While Obi-Wan Kenobi is in exile on Tatooine, a blaster-wielding Sullustan confronts Greedo in the back alley behind Chalmun's Cantina.
Greedo delivers the indebted bandleader Figrin D'an to Jabba. While they serve the Hutt, the Modal Nodes learn that Greedo has been releasing small-time bounties so he can recapture them. They later tell Jabba, and a grudge forms.
Jabba pairs Greedo with Han Solo and Chewbacca to steal a verillix urn holding the ashes of Krestrel D'Naran. The break-in at Augustus Graves' penthouse fails, and Solo leaves Greedo stranded on Corellia.
Picked up by Khel Tanna's crew, Greedo helps chase the impostor Corbus Tyra and shoots Solo in the chest on Paqualis III. He then helps recover the Millennium Falcon from an Imperial impound on Iakar and cheats his way to ownership of the ship at sabacc.
Solo interrogates Greedo and knocks him out to retake the Falcon. Greedo then teams up with Tyra, passes burnt ronto meat off to Jabba as D'Naran's ashes, and collects the reward.

Zeb Orrelios is the hot-tempered, bo-rifle-wielding muscle of the Ghost crew. He was once a captain of the Lasan High Honor Guard and fought to hold the royal palace when the Empire devastated his homeworld with banned T-7 ion disruptors. Kanan Jarrus found him afterwards, adrift and believing himself one of the last of his kind, and he joined Hera Syndulla's Spectres. On Lothal he spent years humiliating stormtroopers, trading barbs with Ezra Bridger and Chopper, and fighting Agent Alexsandr Kallus, the officer who had overseen the slaughter on Lasan. His outlook changed when he guided the Ghost through a collapsed star cluster to Lira San, the ancestral Lasat world, and found that his people had survived. Stranded with Kallus on an icy moon, he formed a grudging bond with his old enemy, and that bond helped turn Kallus into a rebel spy. Zeb forgave him. Zeb stayed with the Spectres through the founding of the Rebel Alliance, the disaster at Atollon and the liberation of Lothal. After the war he brought Kallus to Lira San.

Lando Calrissian is the galaxy's most charming scoundrel: a card sharp, smuggler and self-styled "galactic entrepreneur" who once owned the Millennium Falcon and who, against every instinct for self-preservation, became one of the heroes of the Rebellion. As a young gambler flying with his droid partner L3-37, he joined the coaxium heist on Kessel, lost L3 in the raid, and later lost the Falcon itself to Han Solo in a rematch at sabacc. He then went legitimate, or close to it, with a mining venture on Lothal where he crossed paths with the Ghost's rebel crew, and he rose to become Baron Administrator of Cloud City on Bespin. When Darth Vader used the city to trap Luke Skywalker, Lando was forced to hand over his old friend Han, then broke the deal, evacuated his people, and set out to undo the damage. He helped free Han from Jabba's palace, took a general's commission, and flew the Falcon into the core of the second Death Star at Endor to deliver the killing shot. In the years of peace he became a father, only for the First Order to steal his infant daughter; after a fruitless hunt with Luke for the Sith assassin Ochi, he withdrew into solitude on Pasaana. Called back by the Resistance in 35 ABY, he rallied a vast fleet of ordinary citizens to turn the tide at the Battle of Exegol.
Landonis Balthazar Calrissian is born on Socorro into the Calrissian family.
Lando makes his name at sabacc, wins the Millennium Falcon in a game at Bespin, wins a moon in the Oseon Belt, and flies with his self-built droid partner L3-37.
He runs weapons, pays off a debt to Dryden Vos's Crimson Dawn, and helps arm Petrusian slaves in an uprising against an Imperial outpost on Kullgroon before the Falcon is impounded on Vandor.
On Vandor, Han Solo stakes his claim to the Falcon at sabacc and Lando wins by cheating. He joins Qi'ra, Beckett, Han and Chewbacca to steal coaxium from Kessel, where L3-37 is destroyed and her mind is merged with the Falcon's navicomputer during the escape through the Maelstrom.
After abandoning the crew on Savareen, Lando is tracked to Numidian Prime, where Han steals his spare card and wins the Falcon for good.
Lando buys land on Lothal to mine minerals, wins Chopper from Zeb Orrelios at sabacc, and tricks the Ghost's rebel crew into helping him acquire a puffer pig from Azmorigan.
With Darth Vader hunting the rebels on Lothal, Lando lends them his droid and masking transponders in exchange for shield generators, allowing them to escape.
Lando takes charge of Cloud City, a Tibanna gas mining colony on Bespin, running it with his aide Lobot while staying out of the Empire's way.
Coerced by Darth Vader, Lando hands over Han, Leia and Chewbacca. When Vader keeps altering the deal, Lando frees his captives, orders the city evacuated, and flees with the rebels aboard the Falcon after failing to stop Boba Fett.
Lando throws in with the Rebel Alliance and begins the search for the carbonite-frozen Han, crossing paths with bounty hunters and Crimson Dawn along the way.
Disguised as a guard in Jabba's palace on Tatooine, Lando helps free Han and survives the fight at the Great Pit of Carkoon.
Promoted to general, Lando leads the fighter assault on the second Death Star, flying the Falcon into its core with Nien Nunb and firing the shot that destroys the station.
In the weeks after Endor, Lando helps drive Imperial forces from worlds including Cloud City as the Empire begins to collapse.
Lando returns to business and adventures with Han, including a hunt for the missing Phylanx transmitter, and forms a relationship with Kaasha Bateen.
Lando becomes father to Kadara, who is kidnapped by the First Order while still an infant.
Some six years later, Lando and Luke Skywalker track the Sith assassin Ochi of Bestoon to Pasaana while investigating the growing darkness, but the trail goes cold.
Lando settles alone on Pasaana, where the Aki-Aki know him as the Hermit, while staying in touch with the Solo family.
Lando helps Rey, Finn, Poe and Chewbacca on Pasaana, meets Jannah, and returns to the Resistance base on Ajan Kloss.
Flying the Falcon with Chewbacca, Lando leads the Citizens' Fleet to Exegol to reinforce the Resistance, helping bring down the Final Order and end the war.
Saw Gerrera is best known as the Rebellion's most uncompromising fighter, a guerrilla leader whose methods made even the Alliance keep him at arm's length. He first took up arms with his sister Steela during the Clone Wars, when a Separatist-backed coup put a puppet king on Onderon's throne. Trained by Anakin Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Captain Rex, their rebels helped restore King Ramsis Dendup, but Saw was tortured by the droid general Kalani and lost Steela in the final battle, a death he blamed on himself for the rest of his life. When the Republic became the Empire, he turned his fight against the new regime, formed the Partisans and hid the Erso family on Lah'mu. After Galen Erso was taken, he raised young Jyn as his own and trained her as a soldier before leaving her at sixteen to protect her. His bombings and willingness to spend lives made him a feared figure. Worn down by years of combat and dependent on a breathing apparatus, he broke with Mon Mothma and Bail Organa and set up his final base on Jedha, drawn by the Empire's kyber mining there. There he finally received Galen's message about the Death Star and showed it to Jyn. Then he chose to stay behind and died when the battle station's test shot destroyed Jedha City.
Born on Onderon in the last years of the Republic and raised in the capital city of Iziz alongside his sister Steela. Records of his birth were later destroyed.
After the Separatists put King Sanjay Rash on Onderon's throne in place of Ramsis Dendup, Saw and Steela are banished from Iziz for defying him. They start gathering fighters for a resistance.
Held prisoner in a jungle rhydonium labor camp as a youth, where he develops his strange attachment to the volatile substance.
With Lux Bonteri, Saw asks the Jedi Council for help. Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Ahsoka Tano and Captain Rex come to train the Onderon rebels in guerrilla tactics.
The rebels move into the capital and knock out the city's power generator with a hijacked tank. Steela, not Saw, is elected leader of the movement.
A solo attempt to rescue King Dendup ends with Saw's capture and torture by the super tactical droid Kalani. His words persuade General Tandin to defect, and Tandin helps the rebels free him and the king.
During the final battle in the Onderon highlands, the gunship Saw shoots down crashes near Steela, and she falls to her death. The Separatists withdraw and Dendup is restored, but Saw blames himself for her death.
After the Empire is proclaimed, Saw's Onderonian fighters are branded insurgents and keep fighting. On Onderon he crosses paths with Clone Force 99.
After hiding the Erso family on Lah'mu, Saw rescues young Jyn when Orson Krennic seizes Galen and kills Lyra. He raises Jyn as his own and trains her as a Partisan.
Leads Partisan operations against the Imperial occupation of Kashyyyk and fights alongside Cal Kestis.
Leaves the sixteen-year-old Jyn to fend for herself after her identity is put at risk.
Meets Luthen Rael, disputes his fellow rebel cells' agendas and refuses to join a coordinated effort.
Works with the Ghost crew's Ezra Bridger to sabotage an Imperial relay station and discovers an Imperial kyber shipment, but his ruthlessness drives the Spectres away.
Formally cut off and censured by Mon Mothma and Bail Organa's Alliance as an extremist.
Now dependent on a respirator and armored suit, Saw leads a Partisan insurgency against the Imperial occupation of Jedha City.
Saw receives defector Bodhi Rook and plays Galen Erso's message about the Death Star for Jyn. When the station's test shot destroys Jedha City, he stays in his base and dies in the blast.
Carson Teva is the New Republic X-wing captain who saw the Imperial resurgence coming while his superiors on Coruscant refused to believe it. He fought for the Rebel Alliance as early as the destruction of Alderaan, serving alongside the astromech R5-D4. After the war he became a captain in the Adelphi Rangers, patrolling the Outer Rim with too few ships to cover it. In 9 ABY he and Trapper Wolf chased Din Djarin's Razor Crest onto Maldo Kreis. When they found out the Mandalorian had helped New Republic officers aboard the Bothan-5, they rescued him from ice spiders and let him go. Teva later looked into the destroyed Imperial base on Nevarro, where he tried to recruit Cara Dune, and he let Djarin off with a warning above Tatooine. When pirates took Nevarro, he flew to Coruscant to ask for help and was turned away by Colonel Tuttle and Amnesty officer Elia Kane. He then took Greef Karga's plea to the Mandalorian covert himself, which led to the planet's liberation. He also found the wrecked prison shuttle that proved Moff Gideon never reached trial, and he agreed to hire Djarin as an unofficial contractor. Later he flew with Hera Syndulla on her unauthorized mission to Seatos, stood up for her at the hearing that followed, and helped rescue Djarin, Grogu and Rotta from Nal Hutta.
Carson Teva is born on Torolis. Canon gives no birth year.
Teva is already serving in the Rebel Alliance when the Death Star destroys Alderaan. During his time with the Rebellion he serves alongside the astromech R5-D4.
After the Empire falls, Teva stays on with the New Republic. He becomes a captain flying a T-65B X-wing with the Adelphi Rangers out of Adelphi Base.
On Spinward patrol with Trapper Wolf, Teva stops the Razor Crest because its transponder is off. When the pilots tie it to the Bothan-5 breakout, Din Djarin flees and they chase him into the canyons of Maldo Kreis.
The Bothan-5 records show that Djarin helped the New Republic officers. Teva and Wolf save him from a swarm of ice spiders and let him go, telling him to fix his transponder.
Teva questions Greef Karga about the destroyed Imperial base and the Razor Crest. He offers Cara Dune a place in the New Republic, and when she turns him down he leaves her a rank plaque.

Teva follows R5-D4's signal to the Mandalorian covert and gives Djarin Karga's message. The Mandalorians go on to free Nevarro from the pirates.
Teva finds the breached prison shuttle that was carrying Moff Gideon. The dead guards and a fragment of beskar suggest Gideon was broken out before he could reach trial.

Grogu is the small, Force-gifted foundling whose rescue turned a hardened bounty hunter into a father. As a youngling he was raised at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant and taught by several Masters. When Order 66 struck, Kelleran Beq carried him out of the burning Temple, and for decades afterward he survived by hiding his powers from the Empire. His species ages slowly, so he was about fifty but still looked like an infant when Moff Gideon's Imperial remnant hired Din Djarin to bring him in. Djarin handed him over, then changed his mind and took him back, and the Mandalorian covert on Nevarro declared the pair a clan of two. On their travels Grogu lifted a mudhorn, healed Greef Karga and turned a flamethrower's fire back on an Imperial trooper. On Tython he called out through the Force, was captured by Gideon, and was freed when Luke Skywalker arrived to take him for Jedi training. At Luke's academy he was offered a choice between Yoda's lightsaber and Mandalorian chain mail, and he chose Djarin. He helped retake Mandalore, was formally adopted as Din Grogu, and began training as a Mandalorian.

Fennec Shand is an elite mercenary and Master Assassin who went from a young newcomer in the bounty-hunting trade to Boba Fett's most trusted partner. She broke into the business just after the Clone Wars. One of her first big jobs was a secret commission from the Kaminoan scientist Nala Se to recover the clone girl Omega. That hunt pitted her against Clone Force 99 on Pantora and against the veteran hunter Cad Bane at Bora Vio, where she outfought him. Over the Imperial years she built a reputation as one of the most feared and expensive guns for hire in the underworld, working for syndicates including the Hutts. After the Empire fell, the New Republic jailed many of her employers and she went on the run with a price on her head. In 9 ABY, Din Djarin and the rookie Toro Calican caught her in the Tatooine desert, and Calican shot her and left her to die.

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.

During the civil war she and the Nite Owls track Maul for months. She recruits Ahsoka Tano on Coruscant, and together they ask Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker for Republic help.
She fights alongside Tano and Rex's clone troopers, captures Prime Minister Almec and duels Gar Saxon. She helps take Maul prisoner and seals him in a Mandalorian vault.
The Jedi name her regent of Mandalore. When she refuses to obey the new Emperor, Clan Saxon betrays her and removes her from power during the Imperial occupation.
She allies with Clan Wren and the Spectres and helps Sabine Wren destroy the Arc Pulse Generator aboard Tiber Saxon's Star Destroyer.
With the backing of several clans, she accepts the Darksaber from Sabine and leads the Mandalorian resistance. The Children of the Watch reject her claim because she did not win the blade in combat.
The Empire devastates Mandalore in the Great Purge. She surrenders to Moff Gideon, who betrays the ceasefire and takes the Darksaber from her.
With Koska Reeves and Axe Woves, she rescues Din Djarin and Grogu, then seizes an Imperial Gozanti cruiser loaded with weapons.
She helps Djarin rescue Grogu and takes the bridge of Gideon's light cruiser. Djarin wins the Darksaber from Gideon, and she refuses to accept it from him as a gift.
Without the Darksaber, she loses the support of her followers. Axe Woves takes her fleet, and she withdraws alone to Kalevala.

Obi-Wan Kenobi's loyal astromech through the last years of the Republic, R4-P17 was a cautious but quick-reacting droid with feminine programming, recognizable by the red replacement dome she wore on her white body. She rode in the socket of Kenobi's starfighter when he investigated the plot against Senator Padmé Amidala, which took them to Kamino and a dogfight with Slave I before they reached Geonosis. She stayed with him once the Clone Wars broke out.

C-3PO is the anxious, fussy protocol droid who spent more than half a century close to the most important moments in galactic history, usually complaining about it. He speaks over six million forms of communication, later more than seven million. A slave boy named Anakin Skywalker rebuilt him from scrap in Mos Espa to help his mother Shmi, and he first met his lifelong partner R2-D2 around the Boonta Eve race.

"
Cassian Andor spent his whole short life fighting, first as a boy fighter on a stripped mining world, then as one of the Rebellion's most trusted spies and killers, and finally as the man who got the Death Star plans off Scarif. Scavengers Clem and Maarva Andor took him from the wreck of a crashed Republic ship, renamed the boy Kassa, gave him papers saying he was born on Fest, and raised him on Ferrix. There he watched the Empire hang his adoptive father. He grew into a drifter and petty thief who only cared about getting by, until an accidental double killing on Morlana One put him in the path of Luthen Rael. For the money, he flew the escape ship in the Aldhani payroll heist. Soon after he was swept up by the Empire's harsher sentencing laws and sent to the Narkina 5 prison factory, where he helped lead the uprising that let the inmates break out. Maarva's funeral set off a riot on Ferrix, and after it he offered himself to Rael's cause. Over the next years he stole a prototype TIE Avenger, took the reprogrammed security droid K-2SO as his partner, witnessed the Empire's crimes on Ghorman, and helped Mon Mothma escape Coruscant. By then he had become a captain in Alliance Intelligence. Sent to kill Galen Erso on Eadu, he could not pull the trigger. He then gathered volunteers to back Jyn Erso's unauthorized raid on Scarif. The team, called Rogue One, sent the Death Star plans to the rebel fleet, and he died alongside Jyn when the battle station destroyed the base.

"Tech was the brains of Clone Force 99, the Bad Batch: a clone whose deliberate mutations gave him an extraordinary intellect, making him the squad's slicer, engineer, pilot of the Marauder and constant source of statistics nobody asked for. Late in the Clone Wars he helped uncover the Separatists' theft of Rex's battle algorithm on Anaxes, rescued Echo from the Techno Union on Skako Minor and helped turn the tide of the Republic's campaign. When Order 66 came, his inhibitor chip failed to activate. He was the first to work out why the regular clones had turned on the Jedi. Along with Hunter, Wrecker, Echo and the young clone Omega, he deserted the new Empire and left Crosshair behind. As fugitives and mercenaries working for Cid on Ord Mantell, he forged chain codes, raced riot racers, survived the destruction of Tipoca City and helped expose the Empire's secret clone program. Beneath his literal manner lay real loyalty, and he told Omega that thinking differently did not mean he felt any less. During a raid on the Imperial summit at Raven's Peak on Eriadu, Tech stayed behind on a failing tram line so his brothers could escape, and he fell to his death.
Grown in Tipoca City as clone CT-9902 from Jango Fett's template. In Nala Se's private laboratory his mutations are enhanced, giving him an exceptional intellect.

Infiltrates Raven's Peak during the Imperial summit to find Dr. Royce Hemlock and Crosshair. As the squad's tram fails, he cuts himself loose so his brothers can escape, and falls into the chasm below.
Wrecker is the muscle and demolitions specialist of Clone Force 99, the "Bad Batch" of genetically deviant clones whose mutations made them better at particular jobs. His gave him enormous size and strength and an eager love of explosions. He came out of the Kaminoan cloning program with a scarred, clouded left eye from an early mission. He fought through the late Clone Wars alongside Hunter, Tech and Crosshair. At the Battle of Anaxes he lifted a burning gunship off Commander Cody. He helped rescue Echo from the Techno Union on Skako Minor, and Anakin Skywalker let him detonate a Separatist dreadnought. His squad's mutations shielded them from Order 66, and after refusing to follow the new Empire's orders they deserted Kamino with the young clone Omega. Wrecker became her protective big brother, even after his inhibitor chip briefly turned him against her before it was removed. Through years as fugitives and mercenaries he survived the destruction of Tipoca City, lost Tech on Eriadu, and helped Hunter storm Mount Tantiss to free Omega and the captive clone children. He then settled on Pabu, one of the few clones to find a peaceful life after the war.
Grown from Jango Fett's template as CT-9903. A cloning deviation gives him extraordinary size and strength, and he is placed in the experimental unit Clone Force 99 with Hunter, Tech and Crosshair.

Now living peacefully on Pabu with Hunter and Crosshair, he sees a grown Omega off as she leaves to join the rebellion.
Crosshair is the razor-eyed sniper of Clone Force 99, the "Bad Batch," whose mutated eyesight made him one of the deadliest marksmen in the Grand Army of the Republic. After fighting alongside his squad in the late Clone Wars, including the rescue of Echo on Skako Minor and the Battle of Anaxes, he alone among his brothers obeyed Order 66 on Kaller. Tarkin had his inhibitor chip strengthened, and he turned on his squad as they fled Kamino with the young clone Omega. He then led an Imperial Elite Squad against them on Onderon, Bracca and Ryloth, and kept serving the Empire even after his chip was removed. He killed his own squad to try to win his brothers back, but refused to leave with them when Tipoca City was destroyed. His faith in the Empire wore down over the next year. He watched clones like Cody desert, and after the Empire let his comrade Mayday die on Barton IV, he killed the officer responsible. That act sent him to a cell at Mount Tantiss, where Doctor Hemlock held him for months and questioned him about his old squad. He escaped with Omega, fought his way back into his brothers' trust despite a worsening tremor in his shooting hand, and helped destroy Tantiss. He finally settled on Pabu with the family he had once hunted.

Boba Fett is known as the most feared bounty hunter of the Imperial age. He later became something rarer: a hunter who went legitimate and ruled a city. He began as "Alpha," the one unaltered clone that Jango Fett asked for as payment for serving as the clone army's template, and Jango raised him as a son. Jango trained him in combat, piloting and the bounty trade, and Boba flew Slave I as a boy. At ten he watched Mace Windu kill his father in the Geonosis arena. His first attempt at revenge, sabotaging the Republic cruiser Endurance with Aurra Sing's crew, ended with him in a Coruscant prison. After his release he led the Krayt's Claw syndicate and learned from hunters such as Cad Bane. He then rebuilt his father's armor and built a reputation that made him the first choice of Jabba the Hutt and Darth Vader. His best-known job was capturing Han Solo in carbonite at Cloud City, a prize fought over in the War of the Bounty Hunters. At Solo's rescue a damaged jetpack dropped him into the sarlacc. He clawed his way out, lived for a time with a Tusken tribe, and took back his armor from Din Djarin. He then helped rescue Grogu from Moff Gideon, killed Bib Fortuna and claimed Jabba's old throne. With Fennec Shand beside him, he fought off the Pyke Syndicate, the Hutt Twins and his old mentor Cad Bane to earn Mos Espa's loyalty as its Daimyo.

Captain Rex is the best-known clone trooper of the Clone Wars. He led the 501st Legion at Anakin Skywalker's side and was a steady mentor and close friend to Ahsoka Tano. His fighting took him from Christophsis and Teth to Ryloth, Geonosis and Saleucami. On Saleucami he let the deserter Cut Lawquane stay with his family, the first sign that Rex would think for himself. Serving under the treacherous Pong Krell on Umbara shook his blind trust in orders, and the death of his friend Fives, who had uncovered Order 66, led Rex to find the control chip in his own head. When the order came during the Siege of Mandalore, Ahsoka removed his chip and the two escaped the purge together. Rex then worked in secret to free other clones, retired to Seelos with Wolffe and Gregor, and returned to the fight to help the Spectres and the Rebel Alliance.

Hunter led Clone Force 99, the genetically modified commando squad the rest of the clone army called the Bad Batch, and his defining choice was to protect his squad and a lost child instead of obeying the Empire. His mutation gave him heightened senses, letting him track movement and electromagnetic signals no ordinary trooper could detect. As a sergeant in the last year of the Clone Wars, he and his men helped Captain Rex and Anakin Skywalker retake Anaxes and rescue the long-lost ARC trooper Echo from the Techno Union on Skako Minor, and Echo then joined the squad. Because of their mutations, most of the Batch were unaffected by the inhibitor chips, and when Order 66 came on Kaller, Hunter let the Padawan Caleb Dume escape. Back on Kamino, he refused an Imperial order to wipe out civilians on Onderon and rescued the young clone Omega, which led the squad to desert.

Han Solo is the galaxy's most famous smuggler-turned-hero, the cocky pilot of the Millennium Falcon who went from street thief to Rebel general. Raised as a scrumrat for the White Worms gang on Corellia, he escaped by enlisting in the Imperial Navy, where a recruiting officer gave him the surname Solo. He washed out of the Carida flight academy for insubordination and was sent to the mud of Mimban. There he met Chewbacca and deserted with Tobias Beckett's crew. The coaxium heist that followed cost him his mentor and his first love, Qi'ra, but won him the Falcon from Lando Calrissian and the record Kessel Run in twelve parsecs. Years of smuggling for Jabba the Hutt left him deep in debt, and then a charter job for Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi pulled him into the Rebellion. He rescued Princess Leia, saved Luke at the Battle of Yavin, and was frozen in carbonite at Cloud City before his friends freed him. He then led the strike team that destroyed the second Death Star's shield generator on Endor. He married Leia and had a son, Ben, but when Ben fell to the dark side as Kylo Ren, Han drifted back to smuggling. Rey and Finn brought him back into the fight, and during the Resistance assault on Starkiller Base he tried to bring his son home and was killed by him. A year later, Han's memory helped Ben turn back to the light.

Omega is best known as the youngest and most determined member of Clone Force 99, the renegade squad nicknamed the Bad Batch. She was one of only two unaltered copies of Jango Fett's genetic template, the other being Boba Fett, and she grew up quietly in Tipoca City as a medical assistant to the Kaminoan scientist Nala Se. When the Clone Wars ended and the Empire rose in 19 BBY, she befriended the Bad Batch and escaped Kamino with them, leaving behind the only home she had known. As she travelled with Hunter, Wrecker, Tech and Echo, she learned to fight with a Zygerrian energy bow, took on jobs for the information broker Cid, and was chased by bounty hunters including Fennec Shand and Cad Bane. She saw Tipoca City destroyed, grieved when Tech was killed on Eriadu, and was later taken to Mount Tantiss because her unusually high M-count made her vital to Doctor Royce Hemlock's cloning research. She escaped with Crosshair and brought him back into the family. After she gave herself up to protect the people of Pabu, she helped free the Force-sensitive children held at Tantiss before her brothers rescued her and Hemlock was killed. She then spent peaceful years on Pabu before leaving as a young adult to fly for the Rebel Alliance.
Nala Se creates Omega in her private laboratory in Tipoca City as an unmodified female copy of Jango Fett's template. Only Omega and Boba Fett are pure copies of that template.

Jabba the Hutt's only son, Rotta is best remembered as the sickly Huttlet whose kidnapping early in the Clone Wars became a Separatist plot to turn the Hutts against the Republic. Count Dooku arranged the abduction with Rotta's great-uncle Ziro, and Asajj Ventress carried it out, holding the infant on Teth so the Jedi could be framed for his death. Anakin Skywalker and his new Padawan Ahsoka Tano fought their way into the B'omarr Monastery to rescue him. Ahsoka, who nicknamed him "Stinky," nursed him through a dangerous fever and carried him across the Tatooine desert while Anakin led Dooku away. Returning Rotta safely won Jabba's alliance and secured Republic access to Hutt hyperspace routes. Rotta stayed at his father's palace for the rest of the war. Decades later, after Jabba's death left him heir to the family's criminal empire, he turned his back on that legacy. He grew into a huge, muscular gladiator and became a crowd favorite in the fighting pits of Shakari while working off a debt to the Imperial warlord Janu Coin. When his scheming relatives, the Twins, sent Din Djarin and Grogu to bring him in, Rotta first fought the Mandalorian. Once Coin tried to have him killed, the two became allies and escaped the arena together.
Rotta is born to Jabba the Hutt of the Desilijic kajidic. Jabba tells the young bounty hunter Greedo that he has recently become a father.
Hoping to impress Jabba, Greedo brings him a captured Wookiee named Brewhada. Jabba makes Brewhada the infant Rotta's personal toymaker, and he crafts toys for the Huttlet, including a plush Wookiee.
During the Clone Wars, Asajj Ventress snatches Rotta from Jabba's sail barge, the Khetanna, with a Trident-class assault ship. The plot is Count Dooku's, aided by Rotta's great-uncle Ziro, and Rotta is locked in a cell at the B'omarr Monastery on Teth.
After the Battle of Christophsis, Anakin Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano and Torrent Company storm the monastery and find the sick Huttlet. The droid 4-A7 secretly records the Jedi so the rescue can be passed off as a kidnapping.
Trapped by Ventress and Separatist droids, Rotta points the Jedi to a distant landing platform. From there they escape Teth aboard the freighter Twilight.

Now fully grown and heavily muscled, Rotta owes a debt to the Imperial warlord Janu Coin and must fight in Coin's gladiatorial pits on Shakari. Crowds first jeer Jabba's son, but they come to cheer him as he keeps winning.
The Twins make a deal with the New Republic to have Din Djarin and Grogu find Rotta, secretly planning to kill him. Rotta turns the Mandalorian away, insisting he has no interest in leaving Shakari or taking over the family business.
Coin sets Rotta against Djarin, who lets the Hutt win. Coin then unleashes dejarik beasts to kill Rotta, and the two fight side by side. Rotta short-circuits the arena's electric fence, the beasts pour into the stands, and the chaos lets them escape.
Reva Sevander, known as the Third Sister, survived the massacre at the Jedi Temple and turned Darth Vader's own Inquisitorius into her means of revenge. She trained as a Jedi initiate under Yoda. During Order 66 she watched Anakin Skywalker cut down her clanmates, whom she thought had come to be saved by him. He stabbed her, and she lived by playing dead among their bodies. Years later she joined the Inquisitors, and she was ruthless and reckless enough to anger both the Grand Inquisitor and the Fifth Brother. Her plan was to deliver Obi-Wan Kenobi to Vader and strike while the Sith Lord was distracted. In 9 BBY she lured Kenobi out of hiding by arranging the kidnapping of young Leia Organa. She stabbed the Grand Inquisitor on Daiyu, captured Leia again on Mapuzo, and tracked the Hidden Path to Jabiim, which earned her the title of Grand Inquisitor. Her attempt on Vader's life there failed badly. He ran her through, stripped her of rank and left her for dead. She then learned about Luke Skywalker from a message meant for Kenobi and went to Tatooine to kill the boy. At the last moment she saw that she was becoming the man she hated. She returned Luke to his family, laid down her lightsaber on Kenobi's advice and walked away into an unknown future.
Reva Sevander is born. She is Force-sensitive and is taken into the Jedi Order as a child.
Reva trains as an initiate in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, taught by Yoda, and comes to see her clan of younglings as her family.

Reva escapes the Temple, consumed by survivor's guilt and a thirst for revenge. She joins the Inquisitorius as the Third Sister so she can get close to Vader.
As an Inquisitor she hunts Jedi and Force-sensitives on worlds including Pantora, Valo, Cerea, Boz Pity and Alsakan, while fixating on finding Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Reva goes to Tatooine with the Grand Inquisitor and the Fifth Brother. In Anchorhead she maims a local and threatens Owen Lars and his family to find Kenobi, and her fellow Inquisitors rein her in.
Defying her superiors, she hires bounty hunters to abduct Princess Leia Organa and bring her to Daiyu as bait for Kenobi.
Reva corners Kenobi and tells him Anakin is alive. When the Grand Inquisitor tries to take over, she stabs him and leaves him for dead, and Kenobi escapes with Leia. Vader promises her the Grand Inquisitor's post if she catches Kenobi.
She finds a Hidden Path safehouse and its escape tunnel, kills the waiting pilot and recaptures Leia.
Kenobi and Tala Durith rescue Leia from the fortress on Nur. Vader chokes Reva for her failure, but spares her when she reveals she planted a tracker in Leia's droid, L0-LA59.
The tracker leads the Empire to the Hidden Path's base on Jabiim, and Vader promotes Reva to Grand Inquisitor aboard the Devastator.
Reva leads the siege. Kenobi realizes she survived the Temple massacre and wants revenge. When she tries to kill Vader, he defeats her, runs her through and strips her of rank, and the surviving Grand Inquisitor is at his side. Lying wounded, she plays a message from Bail Organa that reveals Luke Skywalker's existence.
Reva attacks the Lars homestead on Tatooine and chases Luke into Beggar's Canyon. On the point of killing him, she sees herself becoming Vader and spares him.
She carries Luke back to Owen and Beru. Kenobi tells her she has not failed and is free to choose her own path, and she lays down her lightsaber and leaves to start a new life.
The Inquisitorius is gone by the time of the Battle of Scarif. What became of Reva is never revealed.
Qi'ra is best known as Han Solo's first love, who clawed her way from the gutters of Coronet City to the head of the Crimson Dawn syndicate. As a scrumrat of Lady Proxima's White Worms she grew close to Han and rose to Head Girl, but their attempt to escape Corellia together failed at the spaceport gate. Han got through and she was dragged back. Proxima sold her to the slaver Sarkin Enneb, and she ended up with Dryden Vos. He trained her in Teräs Käsi and made her his top lieutenant once she had killed Enneb. In 10 BBY she met Han again and joined the Kessel coaxium heist, then killed Vos to protect Han. Instead of leaving with him, she took Vos's place as the public face of Crimson Dawn under its true master, Maul. Maul taught her that Palpatine and Vader were Sith and that the Empire was their instrument, and that knowledge shaped the rest of her life. After Maul's death she rebuilt the syndicate in secret. Around 3 ABY she stole the carbon-frozen Han from Boba Fett and auctioned him off to draw the galaxy's powers into conflict. She dueled Darth Vader, supplied the Rebel Alliance, and started a Syndicate War. Her campaign against the Sith ended when the Knights of Ren betrayed her at the Amaxine station trap and Crimson Dawn fell apart. Qi'ra left what remained of its resources to the young Cadeliah and disappeared, watching the Empire's end from hiding.
Qi'ra is born on Corellia and grows up in the Bottoms of Coronet City.
She is caught trying to pickpocket Moloch, brought before Lady Proxima, and made a scrumrat of the White Worms. There she meets Han, and they go from rivals to friends and then to lovers.
At about eighteen, Proxima names her Head Girl of the White Worms.
Han steals a vial of coaxium and the two flee Proxima together. At the Coronet Spaceport gate the White Worms recapture Qi'ra while Han gets through, promising to come back for her.
Proxima sells her to the slaver Sarkin Enneb, who later sells her on to Dryden Vos of Crimson Dawn.
After a year of failed escape attempts, Vos offers her a place in Crimson Dawn in exchange for lifelong loyalty. She kills Enneb, is branded with the syndicate's mark, and is trained by Vos in Teräs Käsi.
She becomes Vos's enforcer and trusted lieutenant. On one assignment on Ord Mantell she turns IG-88 and Hondo Ohnaka against each other and captures them both.
On the yacht First Light she meets Han again, now working with Tobias Beckett. Vos sends her with the crew on a plan to steal unrefined coaxium from Kessel.
She brings Lando Calrissian and the Millennium Falcon into the job and rekindles her romance with Han. On Kessel she poses as a slaver to get the crew inside the Pyke mines.
On Savareen, Vos uncovers Han's double-cross and Qi'ra kills Vos to save Han. She then contacts Maul, Crimson Dawn's true leader, and goes to Dathomir instead of leaving with Han.
She becomes the public face of Crimson Dawn. Maul teaches her the truth about the Sith, Palpatine and Vader, and trains her to fight them.
After Maul dies on Tatooine, most of the galaxy believes Crimson Dawn is destroyed. Qi'ra quietly takes control of what remains.
She builds the Dawn Fleet and recruits the Archivist Madelin Sun, Ochi of Bestoon, Deathstick and the Knights of Ren. She also sends Sun to search for Yoda.
Her agents take the carbon-frozen Han from Boba Fett on Nar Shaddaa. She then announces Crimson Dawn's return to the galaxy's crime lords.
At Jekara she auctions Han to the syndicates. When Darth Vader arrives to claim him, she duels Vader, and the auction ends in open conflict between the Empire and the Hutts.
She stops the Millennium Falcon, tells Leia that Han is alive at Jabba's Palace, and offers the Rebellion her help.
She starts a Syndicate War among the crime families. She reveals to her followers that her goal is to kill Sidious and Vader, and she arranges the assassination of the Emperor's Royal Guard.
She gives Leia the location of the Rebels' last surviving fleet division and hands over Ellian Zahra's hunter fleet. She also offers to manage the Alliance's supply chain.
Deathstick brings her the child Cadeliah, heir to the Mourner's Wail Syndicate and the Unbroken Clan, and Qi'ra takes her in.
She lures Palpatine and Vader into a trap built around the Fermata Cage at the Amaxine Space Station. The Knights of Ren betray her and free the Sith Lords, and Crimson Dawn collapses.
She leaves her remaining resources to Cadeliah, goes into hiding, and watches the Empire fall from obscurity.
IG-11 is the killer-turned-caretaker of The Mandalorian. He was a Bounty Hunters' Guild assassin droid with a built-in self-destruct charge, and in 9 ABY he teamed up with Din Djarin to storm a Nikto encampment on Arvala-7. When they found their target, the infant Grogu, IG-11 moved to carry out his order to terminate him, and Djarin shot him down. The Ugnaught farmer Kuiil salvaged the wreck and patiently retrained it into a gentle nurse droid whose new purpose was to nurse and protect. After Kuiil was killed on Nevarro, IG-11 rescued Grogu from Imperial scout troopers and rode into Nevarro City to break his companions out of a siege. He also treated Djarin's wounds, becoming the first to see the Mandalorian's face without breaking his creed. He then walked into a lava river and self-destructed to wipe out the stormtrooper platoon waiting in ambush, and Nevarro honored him with a statue. Djarin's first attempt to revive him failed when the droid's old assassin programming came back. The Anzellan droidsmiths turned his remains into IG-12, a mech that Grogu piloted in the battle to reclaim Mandalore. Afterward Djarin traded work for the New Republic for a replacement IG head, and IG-11 was rebuilt once more and installed as Nevarro's new marshal.
IG-11 is built as an IG-series assassin droid in a Holowan Mechanicals factory, with a self-destruct mechanism to protect the design from capture.
He becomes a Guild bounty hunter and assassin, programmed to follow Guild protocols.
IG-11 takes a contract to terminate a Force-sensitive infant, attacks a Nikto encampment and reluctantly teams up with Din Djarin to take the compound.
When IG-11 raises his blaster to kill Grogu, Djarin shoots him in the head and takes the child.
Kuiil salvages the droid and slowly retrains him. With his memory wiped, IG-11 learns to tend blurrgs, cook and serve tea, and takes on a caring new personality.
Djarin reluctantly lets IG-11 come along on the Razor Crest for the mission to Nevarro. The droid stays aboard the ship to guard it.

Known across the Outer Rim simply as "the Mandalorian," Din Djarin was a feared bounty hunter who threw away his livelihood to save the child he had been hired to capture. Orphaned as a boy when Separatist droids destroyed his village during the Clone Wars, he was carried off by a Death Watch warrior and raised as a foundling on Concordia. He took the creed of the Children of the Watch and swore never to remove his helmet in front of another living being. In the years after the Empire fell he became one of the Bounty Hunters' Guild's best hunters, working out of Nevarro in his gunship, the Razor Crest. In 9 ABY an Imperial remnant hired him to retrieve a mysterious asset. It turned out to be Grogu, a Force-sensitive infant of Yoda's species, and Djarin rescued him from his Imperial clients instead of handing him over. That turned the Guild and Moff Gideon against him. With allies like Greef Karga, Cara Dune, Kuiil and IG-11 he fought his way free. The Armorer then named him and Grogu a clan of two and charged him with finding the child's own kind. That search brought him to Bo-Katan Kryze, Ahsoka Tano and Boba Fett. It ended with Djarin beating Gideon, taking the Darksaber, and taking off his helmet to say goodbye as Luke Skywalker took Grogu away. The Armorer cast him out as an apostate. He fought beside Boba Fett at Mos Espa and got Grogu back. He then bathed in the Living Waters beneath Mandalore to redeem himself, and helped Bo-Katan unite the Mandalorians and retake their homeworld, where Gideon was killed. After that he formally adopted Grogu as his son and apprentice and settled on Nevarro, taking contracts from the New Republic to hunt down Imperial warlords. Those jobs later pitted him against the warlord Barro, the Hutt Twins and the Imperial commander Janu Coin.

Chopper is the rebellion's most ill-tempered astromech. He is a battered, patched-together droid who has run for decades past his expiration date and is fiercely loyal to Hera Syndulla. He began as a navigation droid in the Republic Navy during the Clone Wars. When his Y-wing was shot down over Ryloth, a young Hera pulled him from the wreck and rebuilt him, and he never flew in a Y-wing again. He stayed with her through the Imperial occupation of her homeworld and followed her into space. There he became the only droid who could work the Ghost's systems, which he had rewired himself. As a member of the Spectres he pranked his crewmates, argued with everyone, and saved them again and again. He posed as Imperial droids to get into an academy and a communications ship, found out where Kanan Jarrus was being held, and gunned down TIE fighters when no one else could.

Hera Syndulla was the steady hand at the controls of the Ghost and one of the people who made the Rebel Alliance possible. As a child during the Clone Wars she watched Republic gunships over her home, pulled the astromech Chopper from a crashed Y-wing, and decided she would fly. In the early Imperial years her father Cham's Free Ryloth Movement and her mother Eleni's death left Hera at odds with her father's cause, so she left home to fight the Empire across the galaxy instead. During the Gorse Conflict she met Kanan Jarrus, a Jedi hiding after Order 66, and together they founded the Spectres. Sabine Wren, Garazeb Orrelios and later Ezra Bridger joined the crew.

Nicknamed "Red" by Luke Skywalker, R5-D4 is the astromech whose sudden breakdown at the Lars homestead changed galactic history. The breakdown was deliberate. Held by Jawas after an earlier stint with the rebellion ended in a memory wipe, the droid was persuaded by R2-D2 that the fate of the galaxy depended on R2 being sold. When Owen Lars chose R5 instead, the droid blew its own head plate, so the Lars family bought R2-D2 and the Death Star plans reached Luke and Obi-Wan Kenobi. R5 then played dead while stormtroopers slaughtered its Jawa owners and set off to find the Rebellion. The historian Voren Na'al later bought and repaired it, and it served with Carson Teva's X-wing squadron until the Empire fell. After another memory wipe it drifted back to Mos Eisley, trained under EV-9D9 at Chalmun's Cantina, and ended up in Peli Motto's hangar, where it helped Din Djarin and was later reunited with R2-D2. Peli eventually sold the reluctant droid to Djarin for his quest to Mandalore. There R5 confirmed the planet's air was breathable, fetched Bo-Katan Kryze to rescue Djarin, and helped retake the homeworld by shutting down the shields of Moff Gideon's base. Afterward it joined the New Republic's Adelphi Rangers.

Luke Skywalker is the farm boy who became the galaxy's most famous Jedi, the hero whose single torpedo shot destroyed the first Death Star and whose faith in his father brought Darth Vader back to the light. Born in secret in 19 BBY to Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala and separated from his twin sister Leia at birth, he grew up on his aunt and uncle's moisture farm, watched from a distance by Obi-Wan Kenobi. When two droids carrying stolen Death Star plans came into his life, he lost his family to the Empire, joined the Rebel Alliance, and began training in the Force, first under Kenobi and then with Yoda on Dagobah. On Cloud City he lost his hand and learned that Vader was his father. At Endor he refused to kill him, and Anakin turned on the Emperor to save his son. After the war he searched the galaxy for lost Jedi knowledge, trained Leia, briefly taught the foundling Grogu, and founded a new academy. It ended in disaster when his nephew Ben Solo fell to the dark side and destroyed his temple. Consumed by guilt, Luke went into exile on Ahch-To until Rey found him.

His parents were arrested for their anti-Imperial broadcasts, and from about the age of seven he lived alone as a thief and con artist. In 5 BBY he fell in with the rebel crew of the Ghost, and Kanan Jarrus took him on as an apprentice.

8D8 is best known as the gaunt enforcer of Jabba the Hutt's droid torture chamber, the one who pressed hot irons to the feet of a power droid while EV-9D9 sorted newly arrived R2-D2 and C-3PO into the Hutt's service. Built by the Roche Hive as an industrial smelter droid for ore-extraction work, he was lobotomized and reprogrammed for cruelty. He devoted himself to EV-9D9 and carried out her orders, keeping the palace's droid pool terrified and submissive. After Jabba's death shortly before the Battle of Endor, the palace droids were shut down, but 8D8 got a second career when Boba Fett took the throne from Bib Fortuna around 9 ABY. Reactivated as the new Daimyo's majordomo, he announced visitors paying tribute, briefed Fett on the history and uneasy alliances of the Hutt territories, identified a captured Night Wind assassin, translated for Gamorrean guards and the Aqualish crime boss Garfalaquox, and passed on news from the evasive mayor of Mos Espa. He kept pushing old Tatooine habits, such as urging Fett to torture prisoners to project strength, and Fett kept turning him down. He stayed at Fett's side through the war against the Pyke Syndicate and was with the Daimyo's party in the Sanctuary ruins when Cad Bane arrived.
Manufactured by the Roche Hive as an 8D-series smelter droid for simple labor in ore-extraction facilities.

Supreme Leader of the First Order and the dark side master who seduced Ben Solo into becoming Kylo Ren, Snoke believed he was a self-made seeker of forbidden Force lore. In reality he had been grown in the Sith Eternal's laboratories on Exegol, an early attempt at a vessel for Darth Sidious's spirit. Sidious rejected the body as unworthy, but after his resurrection he used Snoke as an unwitting puppet. Snoke gathered ancient knowledge in the Unknown Regions and, with the help of his navigators, guided the Imperial remnant that fled there after the Empire's collapse. He then pushed aside its old leadership and rebuilt it as the First Order, ruling from the mobile Star Dreadnought Supremacy. For years he whispered to the young Ben Solo, feeding his resentment toward his family and his uncle Luke Skywalker. After the fall of Luke's Jedi temple in 28 ABY, Snoke took Ben as his apprentice and sent him to take command of the Knights of Ren. In 34 ABY he approved the Starkiller Base strike that destroyed the New Republic's capital and began the First Order–Resistance War. Months later he was betrayed and cut in half by Kylo Ren in his throne room. His death was the final step of Sidious's plan to shape Ren into a Sith-worthy successor.
The Sith Eternal grows Snoke in the Sith Citadel's laboratory as one of its earliest attempts at a body to hold Darth Sidious's spirit. Sidious rejects him as an unworthy vessel but keeps him as a potential pawn. Several of his clone "brothers" are kept dormant in vats.

Temmin "Snap" Wexley went from teenage junk dealer to one of the most dependable wingmen in the Resistance, and he fought in the battles that ended both the Empire and the First Order. His father was taken by the Empire and his mother Norra left to fly for the Rebellion, so Temmin grew up on his own in Myrra. He ran a scrap shop out of the family home, did business with local gangsters, and rebuilt a battle droid, Mister Bones, into his fiercely loyal bodyguard. When Norra came home after Endor, the two reconciled during the uprising that freed Akiva from Imperial control. Temmin then joined her team as they hunted Imperial war criminals, learned to fly under Wedge Antilles (who later became his stepfather), and helped free Chewbacca and other prisoners from Ashmead's Lock, where he found his father again. The reunion ended badly when Brentin, controlled by an Imperial implant, took part in the Liberation Day attack on Chandrila. Temmin fought at the Battle of Jakku and went on to serve as a New Republic pilot. Decades later he joined the Resistance, flew with Black Squadron, and became a captain and recon specialist in Blue Squadron at Takodana and Starkiller Base. He married fellow pilot Karé Kun and helped rebuild the Resistance after Crait. He was killed in the Battle of Exegol, and Poe Dameron remembered him as the best wingman he ever had.

He grew up during the last years of the Galactic Civil War. By the fall of the Empire he was already part of the Ghost's crew, with the callsign Spectre 7 and the ornery astromech Chopper as his constant companion and partner in mischief. He was a natural pilot like his mother and Force-sensitive like his father, and he openly wanted to become a Jedi, just as his "Aunt Sabine" was doing under Ahsoka Tano. In the New Republic era he flew with his mother to Seatos to help Sabine and Ahsoka, and pulled the Ghost's hyperdrive lever himself on the way. There his connection to the Force let him sense Ahsoka, adrift in the World Between Worlds and dueling the memory of her old master. Jacen led the rescuers to her, then watched in wonder as she and Huyang left with a pod of purrgil.

On Seatos, Jacen senses Ahsoka through the Force and hears lightsabers clashing while she is lost in the World Between Worlds. He helps Hera and Huyang pull her from the sea.
Jacen shares a warm reunion with the recovered Ahsoka. From the Ghost, he watches in awe as she and Huyang leave with a pod of purrgil to chase the Eye of Sion.
Armitage Hux is best known as the young, venomous First Order general who ordered Starkiller Base to fire on the Hosnian system, wiping out the New Republic's capital and fleet in a single shot. He was born illegitimate to the Imperial academy commandant Brendol Hux and grew up scorned and beaten by his father. As the Empire collapsed he was carried into the Unknown Regions alongside Grand Admiral Rae Sloane and a band of child soldiers placed under his command, and he came of age inside the Imperial remnant that became the First Order. Driven by ambition and resentment, he quietly had his father poisoned with Captain Phasma's help, took over the program that raised stormtroopers from infancy, and became the youngest general in the First Order's High Command. His bitter rivalry with Kylo Ren shaped his career: he commanded the Finalizer during the hunt for Luke Skywalker, oversaw the destruction of the Hosnian worlds and the loss of Starkiller, then pushed the hyperspace tracking that let the fleet chase the Resistance from D'Qar toward Crait aboard the Supremacy. After Snoke's death, Ren became Supreme Leader and Hux lost most of his standing. Sidelined under Allegiant General Enric Pryde, he secretly began feeding intelligence to the Resistance, less out of conscience than a wish to see Ren lose. He even helped captured Resistance fighters escape from the Steadfast over Kijimi, until Pryde exposed him and shot him for treason.
Born on Arkanis as the illegitimate son of Commandant Brendol Hux and a kitchen worker. He never knew his mother and grew up friendless, mocked by Imperial officers and abused by his father.

Poe Dameron is best known as the Resistance's top starfighter pilot. He flew the black X-wing Black One and eventually took over from Leia Organa as the movement's commander. He was born just after the Battle of Yavin to two Rebel veterans, the A-wing pilot Shara Bey and the Pathfinder Kes Dameron. His mother taught him to fly in her lap and died when he was eight. As a restless teenager he ran off with the Spice Runners of Kijimi, where he met Zorii Bliss, but he walked away from the criminal life after its violence nearly killed him. He later became a New Republic pilot, trained under Wedge Antilles and led Rapier Squadron. Frustrated that the Republic ignored the First Order's growing aggression, he joined Leia Organa's Resistance and became one of her most trusted agents. He founded Black Squadron and went looking for Lor San Tekka's clue to where Luke Skywalker was. On Jakku he was captured and tortured by Kylo Ren, then escaped with the defecting stormtrooper he named Finn. He fired the shots that destroyed Starkiller Base's weapon. His recklessness at D'Qar got him demoted, and his mutiny against Vice Admiral Holdo backfired, but he learned from both and led the survivors out of Crait. After Leia died he became acting general alongside Finn. At Exegol he rallied a galaxy-wide citizens' fleet that broke the Sith Eternal armada and helped end the First Order.

"Heir to both the Skywalker legacy and the Solo name, Ben Solo is best known as Kylo Ren, the masked "Jedi Killer" who turned against his family and rose to rule the First Order. The son of Han Solo and Leia Organa, he was born on the day the Galactic Civil War formally ended. He grew up lonely while his parents were busy with their careers, and from childhood Snoke whispered to him in his mind, a voice that was secretly a tool of the resurrected Darth Sidious. At about ten he became his uncle Luke Skywalker's first and most gifted Padawan, and Luke expected him to help lead a new Jedi Order. In 28 ABY he learned from a public news broadcast that his grandfather was Darth Vader. Soon after, Luke briefly considered killing him in his sleep. Ben brought the temple down, abandoned the Jedi, killed the leader of the Knights of Ren to take his place, and became Snoke's enforcer. When the First Order went to war in 34 ABY, he killed his father on Starkiller Base, formed a Force bond with Rey, murdered Snoke to become Supreme Leader, and faced Luke on Crait. A year later Sidious offered to make him the new Emperor if he killed Rey. Instead, his mother's final act and the memory of his father drew him back to the light. As Ben Solo he fought beside Rey on Exegol and gave his life to bring her back, ending the Skywalker bloodline and becoming one with the Force.
Born in Hanna City to Leia Organa and Han Solo, one year and four days after the Battle of Endor, on the same day the Galactic Concordance ended the Galactic Civil War. Han named him after "Ben" Kenobi.
When he was a toddler, the family's culinary droid BX-778 was corrupted by a virus and nearly killed him. Han stopped it by destroying the Phylanx Redux Transmitter.
His Force powers surfaced early, often in bursts of anger. With his parents frequently away he grew lonely, and Snoke's voice, secretly an instrument of Darth Sidious, began whispering to him.
Shortly before his tenth birthday he began Jedi training under his uncle Luke and became the first student of the new Jedi Order.
Other students, including Voe, Hennix and Tai, joined him at Luke's temple on Ossus. Ben outpaced them all in the Force and with the lightsaber, and he built a blue-bladed lightsaber of his own.
He went with Luke and Lor San Tekka to an ancient Jedi outpost, where they clashed with the Knights of Ren. Their leader, Ren, sensed the darkness in Ben and invited him to seek the Knights out.
By now one of Luke's senior pupils, he supervised the younger students' lightsaber training while Luke travelled with Lor San Tekka.
At twenty-three he learned from a public broadcast that Darth Vader was his grandfather. He felt betrayed by his family's secrecy, and Snoke used that anger against him.
Sensing Snoke's hold on his nephew, Luke briefly ignited his lightsaber over Ben as he slept. Ben fought back and brought the temple down, then fled with several students as the temple was destroyed.
He killed Ren on Mimban to take command of the Knights of Ren, took the name Kylo Ren, and became Snoke's apprentice and the First Order's enforcer.
He hunted for the map to Luke Skywalker on Jakku, killed Lor San Tekka, and captured Poe Dameron.

He led the assault on the Resistance's last base and dueled Luke, only to discover he was fighting a Force projection while the Resistance escaped.
Hunting the source of the Emperor's broadcast, he found Sidious's wayfinder on Mustafar and travelled to Exegol. Sidious promised him an empire if he killed Rey. He had his broken helmet reforged and hunted her across Pasaana and Kijimi.
He dueled Rey in the wreckage of the second Death Star. Leia reached him with her last strength through the Force, and Rey healed his wound. A memory of his father then led him to cast his lightsaber away and become Ben Solo again.
With Luke's lightsaber he fought beside Rey against the Knights of Ren and Sidious. After Sidious was destroyed, he gave his life force to bring Rey back to life, shared a kiss with her, and became one with the Force.
Phasma was the chrome-armored enforcer of the First Order's stormtrooper corps, a survivor who treated loyalty as a tool and betrayal as a way to climb. She grew up on a ruined, radiation-scarred world and, as a teenager, became war leader of the Scyre clan alongside her brother Keldo, whom she had already crippled while arranging the deaths of their parents.

In the First Order she rose quickly to captain and took over training its adult recruits. She forged her armor from the plating of Palpatine's old yacht. Working with Armitage Hux, she poisoned her patron Brendol, silenced the young recruit Frey, and left her rival Cardinal for dead, which secured her a place beside Hux and Kylo Ren at the top of the Order. She led the massacre at Tuanul on Jakku that drove FN-2187 to defect. When he returned to Starkiller Base with Han Solo and Chewbacca, they forced her at gunpoint to lower the base's shields.

She and her older sister Paige fought the First Order's exploitation of their mining homeworld and joined the Resistance after it. The First Order later wiped out their people. Rose worked on the ground crew as a quiet, book-smart engineer while Paige flew as a bomber gunner. After Paige died destroying a Dreadnought during the evacuation of D'Qar, Rose caught Finn trying to leave the Raddus, then went with him and BB-8 on a mission to Canto Bight to find a codebreaker. The slicer DJ betrayed them aboard the Supremacy, and they barely escaped execution. At Crait she wrecked her own ski speeder to stop Finn's suicide run, and was badly hurt doing it. Over the next year she helped rebuild the Resistance, including missions to Mon Cala and Minfar. Leia Organa promoted her to commander of the Engineering Corps, where she worked on ways to beat hyperspace tracking.

Finn is the stormtrooper who walked away. Taken from his family as a toddler and raised as FN-2187, a model cadet in Captain Phasma's FN Corps, he broke on his first combat mission when he refused to fire during the massacre at Tuanul on Jakku. He freed the captured pilot Poe Dameron, who gave him the name Finn, and escaped. Stranded on Jakku, he fell in with Rey and BB-8, fled aboard the Millennium Falcon and ended up at the side of Han Solo and Chewbacca. For a while he wanted only to run from the war. Even so, his inside knowledge helped the Resistance destroy Starkiller Base, and he took up the Skywalker lightsaber against Kylo Ren there and nearly died. After waking from a coma, he joined Rose Tico on a desperate mission to Canto Bight and the Supremacy, where he defeated Phasma. By the Battle of Crait he was ready to give his life for the cause.

Left behind as a child by parents who died protecting her from the Sith, she grew up salvaging wrecks for Unkar Plutt and waiting for a family that never came back. That changed in 34 ABY, when she rescued the droid BB-8 and fled aboard the Millennium Falcon with the defector Finn. She joined Han Solo and Chewbacca, awakened to the Force, and beat Kylo Ren in a duel on Starkiller Base. She then found Luke Skywalker on Ahch-To and pushed the reluctant exile to train her.

BB-8 is the rolling astromech whose flight across the Jakku desert, carrying a fragment of the map to Luke Skywalker, set the war between the Resistance and the First Order in motion. Built in 29 ABY, he became Poe Dameron's copilot and friend in Rapier Squadron, then followed Poe into Leia Organa's Resistance, flying with Black Squadron in the hunt for Lor San Tekka and repeatedly outsmarting the First Order agent Terex. Poe lent him to Kazuda Xiono during Kaz's spy work on the Colossus, where BB-8 kept the inexperienced pilot alive through pirate raids and First Order schemes. After the attack on Tuanul, he escaped alone with the map, met Rey and Finn, and helped bring it to the Resistance, which led to the destruction of Starkiller Base. During the evacuation of D'Qar he flew with Poe, then went with Finn and Rose Tico to Canto Bight and rescued them aboard the Supremacy by commandeering an AT-ST walker. He stayed with the survivors from Crait as they rebuilt, joined the search for the Sith wayfinder, and was at the final battle on Exegol, where the Sith Eternal were defeated.
