| 15 | [[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/satele_shan.png]] |
| 16 | [[caption-width-right:300:"These are the moments we strive for, when the hope of victory becomes real. When we can see peace on the horizon."]] |
| 17 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JenniferHale |
| 18 | |
| 19 | Descendant of Bastila Shan and Darth Revan. She started out as a Padawan, then a Consular during the return of the Sith Empire. A few years later, Satele is the current Grand Master of the Jedi Council.\ |
| 20 | \ |
| 21 | She is also the biological mother of Theron Shan, via a love affair with Jace Malcolm during the previous war. |
| 22 | ---- |
| 23 | * TheAce: She’s the most powerful Jedi of her time and the Grand Master of the Jedi Order. |
| 24 | * ActionMom: She's the mother of Theron Shan, though the two aren't exactly close. |
| 25 | * BarehandedBladeBlock: To a ''lightsaber''. Justified by a rare Force ability. |
| 26 | * BattleCouple: ''Annihilation'' confirms that she used to be one with [[spoiler:Jace Malcom]]. |
| 27 | * BigGood: She's Grand Master of the Jedi Council, after all. She's also one for the Republic, being the ReasonableAuthorityFigure that Saresh is not. |
| 28 | * DissonantSerenity[=/=]TranquilFury: Her being able to fight like this left Eldon Ax in awe. |
| 29 | * DoubleWeapon: Her lightsaber. |
| 30 | * EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: Presumably a consequence of the developers not having been decided on her looks back then: While in the "Hope"-trailer she has the same look she also has ingame (only a decade or two younger and, of course, in much better quality); she looks completely different in the "Return"-trailer, which can't really be explained by her being barely an adult at the time. |
| 31 | * EnemyMine: In ''Shadow of Revan'', she forms a temporary alliance with Darth Marr and the Empire to deal with Revan. |
| 32 | * {{Foil}}: |
| 33 | ** As a leader, she's everything Saresh is not, but sees herself as being. |
| 34 | ** Also to Darth Marr. Each is a ReasonableAuthorityFigure to their respective faction, and a mighty warrior. One imagines they might get along quite well if she weren't a Jedi and he a Sith. [[spoiler:In ''Fallen Empire'', he indeed does seek her out as a Force ghost and they provide additional training to the PlayerCharacter together.]] |
| 35 | * FriendlyEnemy: By contrast much has changed between the Empire and Republic by the time Darth Marr comes back. They get forced into EnemyMine a couple of time and actually manage to get on quite well. [[spoiler:He even accompanies her as a Force ghost in Fallen Empire.]] |
| 36 | * InformedAttribute: In supplementary material it is mentioned that she is very tall, measuring 1.75 meters, in the actual game, she is no taller than the average body 2. |
| 37 | * InTheBlood: In terms of personality and appearance, she took after Bastila. She also seems to have inherited Revan's godlike powers. |
| 38 | * {{Irony}}: Is the leader of the Jedi despite being descended from one of the most powerful Sith Lords who ever lived. (Of course, that's because he was only a Sith for ''part'' of his life.) |
| 39 | * IronLady: Comes across as this when dealing with the Empire. A good example occurs within the "Black Talon" flashpoint mission, where she offers the ''Black Talon'' one chance to break off their attack on the ''Brentaal Star'', otherwise she has ''[[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill seventeen]]'' heavily armed Republic warships waiting nearby, prepared to blast them out of the stars on her order. Can lead to a DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu if the player mocks her to her face. |
| 40 | * LadyOfWar: Like most female Jedi, she is calm in battle. |
| 41 | * LookingForLoveInAllTheWrongPlaces: Broke off her brief relationship with [[spoiler:Jace Malcom because she feared his HotBlooded nature might lead them both down a dark path. She similarly nearly entered into a relationship with Harron Tavus - who would later defect to the Sith Empire during the Cold War - but decided against it, despite her attraction to him]]. |
| 42 | * MyGreatestFailure: |
| 43 | ** It's heavily implied she never stopped regretting giving up her son to be raised by someone else. |
| 44 | ** In "Knights of the Fallen Empire", her failure with Theron is superseded by her failure to defeat the Eternal Empire. [[spoiler:This causes her to lose her faith in Jedi teachings and work with the ghost of Darth Marr.]] |
| 45 | * OlderThanSheLooks: She's [[NeverMessWithGranny in her 50's]] by the time of the game. Aside from a couple of lines in her face and graying hair, you'd never guess; she then shows up looking much the same five years after the events of ''Shadow of Revan'' except for having messy hair. Justified, since Force-sensitives, particularly strong ones, tend to age more slowly. |
| 46 | * PregnantBadass: The timeline of ''Annihilation'' roughly means she was pregnant with Theron during the Battle of Alderaan. |
| 47 | * ReasonableAuthorityFigure: She has a pleasant demeanour, lacking the air of smug superiority that so many Jedi masters have. She is also willing to listen to reason even to the point of allying herself with a Sith when a bigger threat presents itself. |
| 48 | * RedHerring: In the Black Talon Flashpoint she contacts the player character and appears to set up a BigDamnHeroes moment to save the ''Brentaal Star'' from the player, but she never shows up because the PC finishes their mission before her ships reach the battlefield. |
| 49 | * RetiredBadass: Retired from the battlefield, at least. One of the dialogue options when accepting the flashpoint mission "Colicoid War Game" is suggesting that she lead the team, since it's so important. Her response: |
| 50 | -->'''Satele Shan''': Twenty years ago, I would be answering the challenge. But I am no longer the warrior you are. |
| 51 | ** In ''Knights of the Fallen Empire'', Satele retires as Grand Master and now wanders the galaxy [[spoiler:with the Force ghost of Darth Marr]]; even with Zakuul's defeat post ''Eternal Throne'' and the Sith-Republic war heating up again in ''Jedi Under Siege'' she shows no interest in retaking her old post. |
| 52 | * ThrowTheDogABone: In the aftermath of ''Shadow of Revan'', the Republic player gets a letter about how [[spoiler:she and Theron have tentatively been trying to reconnect as mother and son.]] |
| 53 | * WhatTheHellHero: In the Jedi Knight ending, she'll tell a Dark-sided Knight that they have obviously given in to the Dark Side and thus she cannot make them a Jedi Master... [[KickTheDog loudly in front of countless people]]. [[GameplayAndStorySegregation Not that this stops you from earning the title in-game]]. |
| 54 | * WorldsStrongestWoman: Being the Grand Master of the Jedi Order and a descendant of Revan, the remarkably powerful Jedi-Turned-Sith-Turned-Jedi, Satele is likely the most powerful Jedi alive by the events of the game. Besides, you'd pretty much have to be the strongest to even qualify to make Grand Master. Eventually she loses this distinction to the Jedi Knight or Consular, who become more powerful than her towards the end of their class quests. |

| 60 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/LanceHenriksen, Creator/FredTatasciore |
| 61 | |
| 62 | A Kel'Dor Jedi, Gnost-Dural is the keeper of the Jedi Archives and a major historian within the Order. His historical analyses are presented as videos on the Old Republic game website. Later, he surfaces as head of the Jedi settlement on the planet of Ossus. |
| 63 | ---- |
| 64 | * APupilOfMineUntilHeTurnedToEvil: Gnost was the original master of Kana Tarrid who was seduced by the Dark Side by Darth Malgus and was renamed Darth Karrid. |
| 65 | * AwesomenessByAnalysis: His deep knowledge of all the major Sith (and most of the minor Sith who replace them) allows him to manage strategy and tactics against them as well as fight them more effectively in person. |
| 66 | * BadassBookworm: He's primarily an Archivist, but is a Master of the Force and has at least some proficiency in all seven forms of lightsaber combat, able to defeat Sith {{Mook}}s with little difficulty, and understands the strengths and weaknesses of the different styles. In ''Jedi Under Siege'' he's [[spoiler:by far the more powerful and interesting final boss fight, in comparison to Malora.]] |
| 67 | * CatchPhrase: "I'll elaborate on my next report." |
| 68 | * DeadpanSnarker: Has a fair few dry lines while working with Theron Shan. |
| 69 | * MrExposition: Delves into the history of the Jedi and the Sith, but certain areas are just his own interpretation of it, and he leaves out several important bits of info to save time (i.e. Ludo Kressh's rivalry with Naga Sadow). |
| 70 | * MyGreatestFailure: Gnost claimed responsibility for having Kana Tarrid be seduced to the dark side when he wanted her to spy on Darth Malgus. |
| 71 | * UnreliableNarrator: Not completely his fault as he's only working with what he can find, but the player can discover that several of his timeline entries are inaccurate. [[spoiler: For instance, Hylo Visz escaped the Hutts.]] |

| 77 | [[caption-width-right:300:"I'll show the Empire what it can do with its demands."]] |
| 78 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KristofferTabori |
| 79 | |
| 80 | Also known as the Order's Watchman, Kaedan is a powerful Jedi Master who joined the Council during the Cold War. A pragmatic warrior, Kaedan believed that peace could never come to the galaxy so long as the Sith existed, and was concerned about Jedi falling to the Dark Side during the conflict. |
| 81 | ---- |
| 82 | * CharacterDeath: Killed by an Imperial player character during the Battle of Ilum. |
| 83 | * DroppedABridgeOnHim: Despite being one of the most important Jedi in the game's history, [[spoiler: he is killed as a simple secondary boss in Ilum.]] |
| 84 | * {{Expy}}: Not immediately obvious, but on inspection, he is one of Mace Windu. A harsh but well-intentioned jedi master of great power, who is a master of Form VII (although Windu used Vaapad rather than Juyo), and whom held his own against one of the most powerful Dark-Side forces in the setting (Palpatine for Windu, the Dread Masters for Kaedan), who dies protecting the republic from a powerful sith lord (possibly the Warrior or Inquisitor). |
| 85 | ** He also appears to be one of Vrook Lamar from the first two Knights of the Old Republic games, roughly serving the same role as a rather strict Jedi Master who stands in contrast to his more even-tempered contemporaries. |
| 86 | * FatalFlaw: Impulsivity. Kaedan, as a proud warrior, always advocates for immediate action, regardless of what he knows regarding the situation. This ultimately results in his death on Illum, as Grand Moff Regus tricks him into dividing his forces with a pair of decoy outposts, isolating him enough for the Imperial player to infiltrate his camp and assassinate him. |
| 87 | * FrontlineGeneral: Fights on the frontline of several battles during the Great Galactic War and then the renewed war against the Empire. |
| 88 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Can be very judgmental and aggressive, such as when he suggests [[spoiler:kicking Kira Carsen out of the Jedi Order due to being a Child of the Emperor and hiding that fact from the Order for years]], but his heart is usually in the right place and he is quick to admit when he is wrong. |
| 89 | * MasterSwordsman: Is a master of the aggressive and dangerous Form VII, Juyo-Kas, to the point he was considered a living weapon. |
| 90 | * NumberTwo: At the start of the game, he seems to be this to Satele Shan in the Jedi Order. |
| 91 | * OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: Defeated '''The Dread Masters''' as the MVP of a strike team. |
| 92 | * RuggedScar: Has a single facial scar running through his right eye, which seems appropriate given his personality and status as one of the Jedi Order's greatest warriors. |
| 93 | * WhatTheHellHero: [[spoiler:He is outraged if the Jedi Knight makes it clear that they still trust Kira and vow to protect her after her status as a Child of the Emperor is revealed, accusing them of putting both the Order and the Republic at risk.]] |

| 102 | The chief combat advisor of the Jedi Council, Master Traless was the last line of defense for the Tython Jedi Temple when it came under attack by the Sith Empire. |
| 103 | ---- |
| 104 | * CharacterDeath: Killed by a Sith strike team during the Battle of Tython. |
| 105 | * CollapsingCeilingBoss: One attack involves him making the rubble from the ceiling fall down on the players while he shields himself. |
| 106 | * FinalBoss: For the Sith strike team at the end of the Assault on Tython Flashpoint. |
| 107 | * MasterSwordsman: Is a highly skilled swordsman, as befits his status as chief combat advisor. |

| 113 | [[quoteright:164:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Nala-001_4758.png]] |
| 114 | |
| 115 | Satele's Jedi Master, Dar'Nala and her former Padawan were selected to represent the Jedi Order in a peace conference on Alderaan, during the Great Galactic War. The conference, which was arranged by the Sith, was a a method of distraction to pull Republic forces away from the Empire's true goal — sacking the Republic's capital of Coruscant. Following the Empire's crippling attack on Coruscant, the Republic and Jedi delegates on Alderaan were forced to accept the Imperial-authored peace agreement, called the Treaty of Coruscant. Naturally, Dar'Nala was heavily opposed to signing the document, but acquiesced on the suggestion of Jedi Grand Master Zym and Republic Senator Paran Am-Ris. |
| 116 | |
| 117 | After the conference, Dar'Nala secretly conspired with other individuals within the Republic to dismantle the tentative peace and reignite the war with the Sith Empire. To that end, Dar'Nala manipulated Republic and Sith forces to openly combat one another while fanning the flames of rivalry within Imperial ranks. She eventually faked her own death in order to operate in anonymity for a time, during which she orchestrated the assassination of Republic political figures and the continuation of conflicts that began during the Great War. |
| 118 | |
| 119 | Her ultimate goal was to assassinate Darth Baras, the man who drafted and presented the Treaty of Coruscant. Dar'Nala conspired with Republic Lieutenant Harron Tavus, Jedi Knight Fortris Gall, and the Wookiee mercenary Dalborra to kill Lord Baras in the Crystal Caves on Dantooine, leading to a short battle between her crew and Baras, but it was interrupted by Satele. By the end of it, Dalborra killed Dar'Nala, propelling Satele to both a seat on the Jedi High Council and a place as the Grand Master of the Order. |
| 120 | ---- |
| 121 | * TheDarkSideWillMakeYouForget: A particularly glaring case given who she was trying to fight against. Ultimately, her own hatred makes her actions no better than the Sith. |
| 122 | * {{Hypocrite}}: She hates the Sith with a passion, but her own hatred led her to the Dark Side. |

| 129 | |
| 130 | A Jedi Master noted for his wise counsel and composed nature, featured in the ''Deceived'' trailer. Zallow led the Jedi during the initial clash against the Sith, and he fought Malgus in a lightsaber duel, but he was stabbed through the abdomen by Malgus shortly thereafter. |
| 131 | ---- |
| 132 | * DuelToTheDeath: With Malgus. |
| 133 | * KilledOffForReal: Ends up ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice by Malgus in the "Deceived" trailer. |
| 134 | * MasterSwordsman: Going toe-to-toe against Malgus and [[OffhandBackhand almost casually taking out multiple others]] qualifies him as this. Unfortunately, Malgus was better. |
| 135 | * NervesOfSteel: Was one of the only Jedi who ''never'' flinched or panicked during the invasion of the Jedi Temple, something Malgus noted and admired. |
| 136 | * SmugSmiler: When Malgus confronts him before additional Sith arrive. |

| 144 | |
| 145 | A Jedi Master that led the Republic during their last stand on Bothawui. Although all of the Republic defenders, including Allusis, were killed, they managed to inflict heavy casualties upon the Sith, forcing them to retreat. The last stand of "The Heroes of Bothawui" — as Allusis and his men became known — restored hope across the Republic and served as a turning point in the war. The strategies developed by them helped the Republic to temporarily hold off the Sith advancement, until the Sith allied with the Mandalorians four years later. |
| 146 | ---- |
| 147 | * DefiantToTheEnd: He fought against overwhelming odds and never backed down. |
| 148 | * {{Determinator}}: He would ''not'' back down, even after being offered to surrender by the Sith. |
| 149 | * HeroicSacrifice: Dying alongside his men, Allusis' sacrifice marked a turning point in the war as it was the first significant resistance to the Sith invasion. His last stand became a rallying cry for the Republic forces. |
| 150 | * LastStand: The Battle of Bothawui. |
| 151 | * NiceGuy: Satele remembers that his sense of humour lightened up Council meetings. |

| 162 | ---- |
| 163 | * FallenHero: Once a heroic Jedi Knight, Jensyn secretly turned on the Republic by joining the Order of Revan and sought to bring about its end along with the Empire. He goes so far as to execute Darth Soverus after he was beaten instead of taking him prisoner, indicating that Jensyn was perilously close to falling to the Dark Side, if he had not already done so. |
| 164 | * FinalBoss: For the Imperial strike team during the reclamation of Korriban. |
| 165 | * WellIntentionedExtremist: Like most Revanites, he believes he is doing the right thing by engineering the destruction of both the Republic and the Empire. |
| 166 | * YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Once his team has successfully retrieved the Rakatan artifacts from Korriban, Jensyn is ordered to be killed instead of being captured by fellow Revanite Darth Arkous during the Sith counterattack to cover up his real mission. |

After sensing that Master Zallow was killed, she left Alderaan and went to Coruscant to find out what had transpired, and upon learning that Darth Malgus was responsible for killing Zallow, vowed to avenge her Master's death. An empath, emotions of every range were a daily part of Aryn's life, giving her the unique ability to personalize with those she interacted with. |

| 186 | A female human Jedi Guardian, she is chief of security at the small enclave at Ossus and second only to Master Gnost-Dural in the chain of command. If the Outlander sides with the Republic in ''Jedi Under Siege'', she accompanies them to stop Darth Malora's attack on the colony. On the Imperial side, she's the HeroAntagonist for the Mek-Sha and Corellia portions of ''Onslaught''. She is extremely talented in combat, and has survived many battles, but feels that her talents make her a good soldier and a poor Jedi. |
| 187 | ---- |
| 188 | * AffectionateNickname: She refers to Gnost-Dural as "The Old Man." |
| 189 | * BrawnHilda: Her appearance isn't ugly or fat by any means, but she is striking with the tightly bound dreadlocks, the elaborate tattoos on her shaved head, and her extremely tall (Type 1 female barely comes up to her mid-chest), muscular, and masculine build. |
| 190 | * BrokenAce: She's a very skilled fighter, but she also believes she's a bad Jedi because of all the lives she's taken, on top of losing her friends in battle. |
| 191 | * HeartbrokenBadass: She lost five of her closest friends in seconds when a Sith boarded their ship during the Battle of Corellia. She managed to dispatch the Sith by shoving a grenade in his mouth and throwing him out the side door mid-flight, but it was too late to save anyone other than herself and the pilot. |

| 205 | |
| 206 | The leader of the Galactic Republic during the time of the Cold War, initially serving as Senator to Coruscant. Upon the Sacking of Coruscant, Janarus took it upon himself to pull the leaderless Republic back together after suffering such a crippling blow by the end of the Great War. The great respect the people and politicians had for him is what prompted them to unanimously elect him as Supreme Chancellor, replacing the one that was lost in the attack. However, in the years since his inauguration, the support from his peers gradually declined, as many system governments continue to chafe at the costs of rebuilding and his military advisors grow increasingly frustrated with his refusal to take sterner action to stamp out sedition. Janarus's stance has always been that the Republic's core values of freedom, justice, and the right to self-governance are that much more important to protect when standing in the face of the brutally tyrannical Sith Empire. His biggest political rivals are General Garza of the Republic Special Forces, Governor Saresh of Taris and the Ord Mantellian Separatist movement. |

| 225 | [[caption-width-right:300:"While the sacrifices are heavy, we fight knowing that a single spark of courage can ignite the fires of hope, and restore peace across the galaxy."]] |
| 226 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KevinMichaelRichardson |
| 227 | |
| 228 | A Republic soldier who witnessed the return of the Sith Empire, and helped Satele Shan escape. He later led Republic troops in the Battle of Alderaan, and helped Satele defeat Darth Malgus. He is an inspiration to Troopers throughout the Republic. |
| 229 | ---- |
| 230 | * AceCustom: His cannon, his armor, and his helmet are all modified to standards different than that of the normal Republic Heavy Trooper, both in-game and in the prequel books. Notably, they can take a grenade at under two feet of distance without visibly cracking the plates. |
| 231 | * AttackingThroughYourself: Via a grenade in his hand when he gets into a BrawlerLock with Darth Malgus. They're both injured in the explosion, setting Malgus up for a decisive defeat by Satele Shan. Whether Jace's intent was HeroicSacrifice (the grenade killing him but injuring Malgus enough to be defeated) or TakingYouWithMe (the grenade killing them both) or whether he knew his custom armor would protect him is debatable. |
| 232 | * BadassNormal: He may be a soldier with no Force powers, but he can tangle with Sith like Malgus and hold his own quite efficiently. |
| 233 | * BadassNative: Looks vaguely Maori, which implies an in-universe Mandalorian heritage. |
| 234 | * BattleCouple: ''Annihilation'' reveals that he used to be one with [[spoiler:Satele Shan]]. |
| 235 | ** ActionDad: They also had a son together, [[spoiler:Theron]] - though Jace didn't learn of this until well after the fact, by which point [[spoiler:Theron]] was already a grown man and the rigors of the war against the Empire mostly got in the way of the two forming any real familial bond. |
| 236 | * BrawlerLock: In the ''Hope'' trailer, he puts ''Darth Malgus'' in one of these, then breaks it himself by detonating a thermal detonator he held in his hand. [[BadassNormal He gets up to continue the fight after]]. |
| 237 | * ColonelBadass: He's a Colonel by the time you meet him on Alderaan. |
| 238 | ** FourStarBadass: [[spoiler: By the time of Rise of the Hutt Cartel, he's been promoted to Supreme Commander. Yes, of the ''entire'' Republic armed forces.]] |
| 239 | * {{Determinator}}: Not even a Sith Lord can keep him down for long. |
| 240 | * {{Expy}}: Designed with a similar appearance to [[Film/AttackOfTheClones Jango Fett]], and thus by extension, the Clonetroopers. |
| 241 | * FoeTossingCharge: Through several Sith, even. |
| 242 | * GatlingGood: Both him and the soldiers under his command are willing to oblige. |
| 243 | * GoodScarsEvilScars: His face ends up on the receiving end of a point-blank grenade explosion while fighting Malgus at the Battle of Alderaan. When the wounds heal, half of his face is covered with scars. |
| 244 | * GoodOldFisticuffs: He's very good at hand-to-hand combat and even ''tackles'' Darth Malgus on Alderaan. |
| 245 | * HeWhoFightsMonsters: On Iokath, if you choose to side with the Empire he shows strong signs of this. He is desperate to acquire a weapon that will exterminate entire worlds and refuses to listen to any arguments to the contrary. |
| 246 | * IHaveNoSon: If the Outlander chooses to support the Sith Empire [[spoiler:during the war of Iokath]] he will react this way. [[spoiler:He apologizes to Theron before he dies.]] |
| 247 | --> '''Outlander''': An attack against me is an attack against Theron. Would you really sacrifice your son?\ |
| 248 | '''Jace Malcom''': I had a son once. He dedicated his life to defending the Republic. |
| 249 | * KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:In the War for Iokath storyline, if you side with the Empire then he will die trying to activate a superweapon]]. |
| 250 | * MadeOfIron: Whatever he sustained, from blaster shots to ''Force Lightning'', his armor seemed to suck it up. |
| 251 | * MoreDakka: His weapon is a large, explosive-firing weapon (either a blaster cannon, rocket launcher, or a GrenadeLauncher). |
| 252 | * ReassignmentBackfire: He was sent to Alderaan because he kept making unauthorized attacks against the Sith. At the time, Alderaan was far away from the front lines and Jace wasn't expected to see combat ever again. Then the Sith unexpectedly attacked Alderaan and Jace became a war hero by helping Satele defeat Darth Malgus. |
| 253 | * ScreamingWarrior: While charging at Malgus. |
| 254 | * TakingYouWithMe: Detonated a grenade point blank while in a grapple with Darth Malgus. It scarred his face and probably helped to put the Sith into his respirator. |

| 257 | [[folder:Leontyne Saresh]] |
| 258 | !!'''Governor[=/=][[spoiler:Supreme Chancellor]] Leontyne Saresh''' |
| 259 | [[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/leontyne_saresh.png]] |
| 260 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AnnetteCrosbie (as governor), Creator/JulianneGrossman (everywhere else) |
| 261 | |
| 262 | A Twi'lek politician descended from Tarisian inhabitants, Saresh has returned to her ancestral home as the Republic governor, overseeing efforts to build a new Taris out of the ruins of the old metropolis. Her task is not easy, and she finds herself dealing with constant setbacks and other problems, in addition to the constant threat of attack from Rakghouls and other dangers. She is able to make considerable progress in rebuilding, [[spoiler: but it is all entirely undone by an Imperial invasion determined not to see Taris rise again, and Saresh barely escapes to the Republic.]] |
| 263 | |
| 264 | [[spoiler:Despite this outcome, her standing is such that when Supreme Chancellor Janarus is killed or deposed, she manages to get elected to that position. She now stands at the head of the Galactic Republic, ready to lead it in a new offensive against the Sith Empire.]] |
| 265 | ---- |
| 266 | * AndThereWasMuchRejoicing: [[spoiler:If you kill her in ''Eternal Throne'', you won't face too many complaints. Theron in particular is overjoyed and her successor sends you a mail telling you that they're glad to be finally out of her control.]] |
| 267 | * ArcVillain: [[spoiler:Of chapter two in ''Knights of the Eternal Throne.'' She attacks Empress Acina and the Outlander causing their shuttles to crash on Dromund Kaas because Saresh wants both of them dead and to try to take over the Alliance. By the end of the chapter it results in her imprisonment or execution depending on the Outlander's choice.]] |
| 268 | * BerserkButton: In Rise of the Hutt Cartel, [[spoiler:she seems particularly biased against Hutts. Not without reason, but she often uses borderline-religious imagery when talking about how to deal with them.]] |
| 269 | * BigBadWannabe: [[spoiler:She tries to take over the Alliance by having the Outlander and Empress Acina assassinated. However, the two easily survive the initial attempt and then effortlessly dispatch all the [=GenoHaradan=] assassins sent their way. After that, all it takes to end her coup is for the Outlander to walk into the room just as she's making a victorious speech and her ambitions (and relevance to the story) are immediately over.]] |
| 270 | * BigGood: [[spoiler:Becomes this when she rises to the Supreme Chancellor position after what happens to Janarus. Although, considering what happens in ''Shadow of Revan'', it might be more accurate to call her a Big Good Wannabe.]] |
| 271 | * BlackmailIsSuchAnUglyWord: When some construction workers try to quit rebuilding Taris due to Rakghoul attacks, she casually informs them that everyone who signed on to work on Taris has to go through a mandatory six-month waiting period to get off-planet, so if they don't work then they won't get paid for their time and thus can go bankrupt by the time they get off-world, or keep working with the high risk of rakghoul infection. When they accuse her of blackmail, she brushes them off. |
| 272 | * CharacterDeath: [[spoiler:The Alliance Commander has the option to kill her after she attempted to take over the Alliance]]. |
| 273 | * {{Determinator}}: She will not let anything [[spoiler:short of a full invasion]] derail her efforts to rebuild Taris. |
| 274 | * EstablishingCharacterMoment: For Republic players, the holorecording of her in the spaceport making a grandiose speech about how "we" will do great things by cleaning up Taris. She's first encountered in the safety and comfort of her own office, [[NoSympathy chewing out construction workers]] for wanting to cancel their contract due to high illness and death rates from rakghoul attacks. |
| 275 | * EvilerThanThou: [[spoiler:At the final confrontation she pretty much ''dares'' the Outlander to kill her right then and there, suggesting [[IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim If You Kill Me, You Will Be Just Like Me]]. She is then, very briefly, ''utterly shocked'' if the Outlander calls her bluff.]] |
| 276 | -->'''Theron:''' [[spoiler:Is it bad that I enjoyed that?]] |
| 277 | * HotBlooded: Very passionate about defeating the Empire. Unfortunately, that passion tends to lead her to make stupid or short-sighted decisions [[ObstructiveBureaucrat that mostly just hinder the]] PlayerCharacter. |
| 278 | * IronLady: She will fix Taris and nothing is going to stop her. Later, this extends to exterminating (not just defeating) the Empire. |
| 279 | * {{Irony}}: A former Imperial slave who has all the kindness of a slave driver to the poor souls signed on to help clean up Taris. [[spoiler:And, in the expansion, acts just like the Sith tyrants she so despises.]] |
| 280 | * KnightTemplar: She ''hates'' the Empire and has a lot of good reasons to do so, but her methods and attitude veer heavily into this. [[spoiler:The fact that she'll even turn on a Light-sided Republic Outlander for ''daring'' to discuss an alliance with the Sith Empire in ''Knights of the Eternal Throne'' serves as a rock-bottom moment that firmly establishes her as someone beyond reason.]] |
| 281 | * MadeASlave: She has ''good'' reason to hate the Imperials. Her codex states she started life in an Imperial slave camp and managed to escape to the Republic. |
| 282 | * ManBehindTheMan: By ''Fallen Empire'' her term as Chancellor is up, but it's an open secret that the current Chancellor is her puppet. |
| 283 | * NeverFoundTheBody: Defied. [[spoiler:She specifically tells the mercenaries she hires to kill you and Acina that they won't get paid unless they hand over your dead bodies. In the short term this works, as you survive the intial attack.]] [[spoiler:But in the long term, it actually backfires. When the mercenaries encounter you in a cave, they reject Lorman's solution of simply collapsing the cave on top of you, as they wouldn't be able to retrieve the body.]] |
| 284 | * NoSympathy: As far as she's concerned, witnessing most of your construction crew getting killed or infected by rakghoul attacks and feeling completely demoralized from long hours without break in a toxic swamp is ''no'' excuse to cease construction on Taris. If you can physically stand up and hold a tool, you can get back to work. She'll be in her office, thanks. |
| 285 | * ObstructiveBureaucrat: Avoids this mostly, though one or two times she seems like it; when she [[spoiler:decides to trade General Rakton, if the Trooper player character spared him, back to the Empire for their own prisoners, it gives the impression of her being soft or short-sighted--though other plot points simply reveal she is willing to do what is necessary to achieve peace or defeat the Empire.]] |
| 286 | ** She's started sliding into this more and more, particularly during the Ziost questline, where her blatant refusal to listen to the PlayerCharacter and Theron [[spoiler:gets thousands of Republic soldiers killed]]. |
| 287 | ** And then completely played straight in ''Fallen Empire''. [[spoiler:According to Theron and Lana, while Saresh's term as Supreme Chancellor is over, she's still effectively in charge, as her replacement is a carefully-selected puppet, and her various policies have done nothing but ruin what was left of the Republic.]] |
| 288 | ** Then even straighter in ''Eternal Throne''. [[spoiler:Not only does she attempt to outright ''kill'' Empress Acina and the Outlander, she tries to take over the Alliance as well, feeling she would be a "much better leader".]] |
| 289 | * ThePeterPrinciple: While she herself seemed capable enough, this capability does not seem to extend to picking effective subordinates. The Taris project seemed to go reasonably well, but was riddled with incompetence and corruption, with common soldiers and civilians paying the price. Her tenure as Chancellor wound up going from incompetence to megalomania. |
| 290 | * TheUsurper: In ''Eternal Throne'', she attempts to [[spoiler:have the Alliance commander killed and take over the Alliance.]] |
| 291 | * OurPresidentsAreDifferent: As Supreme Chancellor, she's a President Iron in regards to the Empire, which leads to her being an ObstructiveBureaucrat in the later storylines. |
| 292 | * ReasonableAuthorityFigure (Subverted): Initially, she seems to be accepting of the choices her agents make, though it can take some prodding. However, it becomes clear that this is only as long as their choices are aligned with Saresh's goals: |
| 293 | ** She is less reasonable in ''Shadow of Revan'', where she angrily dresses-down Satele for calling a cease-fire with the Empire to combat Revan and not asking for her permission to fight him, even though, as Satele points out, they didn't have ''time'' to go through the red tape. |
| 294 | ** ''Much'' less so as of ''Rise of the Emperor'', when she is heard [[spoiler:outright dismissing warnings about the Emperor and his possessed army in favor of taking the opportunity to attack the Empire.]] |
| 295 | ** Finally averted in ''Fallen Empire''. See ObstructiveBureaucrat above for details. |
| 296 | * ReassignedToAntarctica: Her codex entry implies that her governorship of Taris was an attempt to ruin her political career due to her uncompromising views on the eradication of the Empire, as the post has led to the ruin of many a political career. [[ReassignmentBackfire Saresh instead embraced the situation and threw all her resources at Taris' problems, and despite the failure of the reconstruction efforts]] still had more than enough political clout to [[spoiler:be elected as Supreme Chancellor as Dorian Janarus' successor]]. |
| 297 | * TheRival: To Chancellor Janarus. |
| 298 | * StartOfDarkness: The failure of Taris' reconstruction after the Imperial classes sabotage her work escalates her already bitter hatred of the Empire to fanatical levels, which ends up causing a ''lot'' of problems down the line. |
| 299 | * WeHaveReserves: As early as Republic Taris, she shows little concern for the lives of soldiers or workers under her leadership. Construction workers and soldiers are dropping like flies due to the toxic environment and rakghoul attacks? She'll just fly in more to replace them as many times as she needs to complete her vanity project. |
| 300 | * WeAreStrugglingTogether: ''Tries'' to invoke this with some Republic construction workers, arguing that "we ''all'' must do our part to restore Taris." A Republic player can point out that she's not the one out there getting sick in a toxic swamp or attacked by rakghouls, though she brushes you off. |
| 301 | * WellIntentionedExtremist: She wants the Republic to win at ''any'' cost. Unfortunately, this led her [[spoiler: invading Ziost and essentially walking her forces right into a massive trap]]. Over time she becomes less "well intentioned" and more of a KnightTemplar. |
| 302 | * YouAreInCommandNow: [[spoiler:She is elected to fill the spot left by Chancellor Janarus.]] |

| 305 | [[folder:Theron Shan]] |
| 306 | !!'''Agent Theron Shan''' |
| 307 | [[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/theron_shan.jpg]] |
| 308 | [[caption-width-right:300:"Should I say it like a spy? Target eliminated!"]] |
| 309 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/TroyBaker |
| 310 | |
| 311 | Some are driven to follow in their parents' footsteps, while others loathe the very concept. For Theron Shan, it's a moot point. In keeping with Jedi strictures against attachment, Theron's mother, Grand Master Satele Shan, sent her infant son to be raised by the Jedi who trained her, Master Ngani Zho. Over time, as it became evident that Theron was not Force-sensitive like his mother, he abandoned any notion of becoming a Jedi. Eventually, he joined the Strategic Information Service, using his adventurous nature and unique skillset to become a trusted field agent for the Republic. |
| 312 | |
| 313 | During the ''Shadow of Revan'' expansion Theron became a major player unravelling a conspiracy that threatened the galaxy as a whole. Colonel Darok and Darth Arkous, commanders of the attacks on Korriban and Tython, respectively, were actually part of the Order of Revan. The Order was no longer an obscure cult; they're following the resurgent Revan in all-out war against the Republic and the Empire. With the help of Lana Beniko, Jakarro and the players, they take down the traitors shortly before the return of Revan. |
| 314 | ---- |
| 315 | * AFatherToHisMen: On Ziost, he's noticeably distraught about his Jedi squad's [[spoiler:brainwashing, and asks the PlayerCharacter to try and take them alive, if possible. Notably, this ends with him requesting that Master Surro be returned to the Jedi Order, against Lana's suggestion of examining her mind]]. In other words, a rare early-game instance of Theron suggesting the light-sided option over the dark-sided one. |
| 316 | * AscendedExtra: He's the quest-giver and MissionControl to Republic characters for the Forged Alliances flashpoints, and plays a supporting role to Lana in the Imperial side versions. He plays progressively larger roles through Shadow of Revan and Rise of the Emperor, finally getting upgraded to companion status in ''Knights of the Fallen Empire''. |
| 317 | * BadassFamily: He's the son of the Grand Master of the Jedi Council and the Supreme Commander of the Republic Army. Granted, he's an illegitimate child but he still has an impressive lineage--especially when you consider that he's also a direct descendant of Revan and Bastila Shan through his mother. |
| 318 | * BadassInDistress: [[spoiler:Gets captured and tortured by Revanites halfway through ''Shadow of Revan''. When the PlayerCharacter shows up to rescue him, they find that he's already busted himself out.]] |
| 319 | * BadassNormal: He does have cybernetic implants to help, but he's ultimately a Force-blind spy who constantly has to tangle with Force-users. ''Annihilation'' shows he once defeated a Dark Councilor, [[RefugeInAudacity in his underwear]] [[labelnote: specifically]] He was in his underwear because he was in the ''Ascendant Spear'' engine room, and tossed a malfunctioning blaster at her, killing her [[/labelnote]] . |
| 320 | * BreakHerHeartToSaveHer: [[spoiler:His explanation for his actions on Umbara has shades of this trope, especially if he's the Outlander's love interest. He's deeply regretful of how much his feigned betrayal hurt them, but needed to convince Vinn Atrius and the Order of Zildrog that he'd genuinely turned coat so that he'd have a chance to stop their plans.]] |
| 321 | * BreakTheHaughty: Ziost was a pretty long lesson in humility for him. [[spoiler:Nearly all of his men are killed, one of his friends turns out to be a spy for Saresh, his actions indirectly lead to a massacre of Republic soldiers, and he gets put on probation and is at risk of losing his position.]] |
| 322 | * CallingParentsByTheirName: He always refers to his father as Malcom. He notes that Malcom was too married to his job as a soldier to spend much time being a father. [[spoiler:If you side with the Empire on Iokath, against Malcom, when Malcom gets fried for trying to use the throne to activate a superweapon, Theron lets out a rather heartrending "Father!" even though moments earlier he was prepared to kill Malcom if need be.]] |
| 323 | * CulturallyReligious: Being the son of the Grand Master meant he was trained as a Jedi. When he was revealed to be a MuggleBornOfMages, he joined the SIS, but he still has a lot of contacts in the Jedi Order, has insight into the Jedi mindset that an ordinary person wouldn't have, and occasionally talks about his childhood being raised by Master Zho. |
| 324 | * DeadpanSnarker: Theron's just as good with witticism as he is with guns. |
| 325 | * DefectorFromDecadence: He finally gets fed up with [[spoiler:Saresh's]] incompetence and leaves the Republic to help the Alliance fight Zakuul in ''Fallen Empire''. |
| 326 | * DefrostingIceKing: He starts off cold and abrasive when you first meet him in ''Revan'', only really showing a warmer, softer side to a player who romances him. While he [[TookALevelInKindness mellows out on his own]] after the time skip in ''Fallen Empire'', his warmest moments come from the romance. |
| 327 | * DoubleAgent: [[spoiler:The traitor on Iokath turns out to be Theron Shan himself, as revealed in "Crisis on Umbara." He claims that the Alliance has outlived its purpose following the defeat of the Eternal Empire and that he's acting to bring it down... at least until "The Nathema Conspiracy" confirms his real motives and loyalty.]] |
| 328 | * DoubleReverseQuadrupleAgent: [[spoiler:It turns out Theron's "betrayal" is a ploy to get himself inside the Order of Zildrog as a deep cover agent, in order to prevent them from killing the Outlander and bringing down the Alliance. Because GEMINI-16 has the Alliance under close surveillance, he can't risk letting anyone on his side in on his plans ahead of time.]] |
| 329 | * DoUntoOthersBeforeTheyDoUntoUs: He will ''always'' suggest this, whether it's killing cyborg Revanites while they rest in kolto tanks, or taking advantage of the chaos to snipe Imperial ships during an informal truce. |
| 330 | * EmotionallyTongueTied: Due to being raised by Jedi, Theron has a hard time expressing himself emotionally. |
| 331 | * EndearinglyDorky: Occasionally, if romanced. As he himself notes, he's really not good at the whole "relationship" thing, but he does try. [[spoiler:His proposal is endearingly unsmooth, and even hangs a lampshade on it just to rub it in.]] |
| 332 | -->'''Theron:''' Will you...? Uh... ...You know...\ |
| 333 | '''Player Character:''' ''(amused)'' [[LampshadeHanging This is really difficult for you, isn't it?]]\ |
| 334 | '''Theron:''' ''(sulky)'' Just [[spoiler:marry me]]. Please. |
| 335 | * EnemyMine: His alliance with Lana starts off as this, though it eventually becomes something of an OddFriendship later on. |
| 336 | * ExpositoryHairstyleChange: After the "Crisis on Umbara" storyline, he sports a mohawk. |
| 337 | * FamilyOfChoice: It's strongly implied Theron comes to view the Outlander and the Alliance as his real family, due to his parents being largely absent in his life. [[spoiler:Given that he's willing to become a SelfMadeOrphan if the Outlander sides against Malcom on Iokath...]] If romanced, he outright states the Outlander "means everything" to him. (He also views Teff'ith as [[LikeBrotherAndSister "like an annoying little sister"]] and has watched out for her for years, even though she can barely stand him.) |
| 338 | * FatalFlaw: {{Pride}}. Theron is a genuinely talented agent, but often lets this get to his head and goes RogueAgent. He often defies orders and makes huge decisions behind his superior's back. Sometimes it works out, but often it leads to completely avoidable messes and even casualties, like on Ziost. [[spoiler:This can also potentially get him KilledOffForReal, as the Outlander can let him die for his betrayal in the Nathema flashpoint.]] |
| 339 | * {{Foil}}: To Lana. While Lana is a Sith Lord with the demeanor of a Jedi, Theron is a Republic agent who favors ruthlessness and pragmatism. |
| 340 | * FullCircleRevolution: [[spoiler:His justification for betraying the Alliance in "Crisis on Umbara" is that he thinks that it's become no different from the Eternal Empire. Of course, it's just a front for [[DoubleReverseQuadrupleAgent his real reasons.]]]] |
| 341 | * GenerationXerox: If romancing him with a Knight or Consular, since his own parents were a BadassNormal and a Jedi. |
| 342 | * GoodIsNotSoft: He's either here or TokenEvilTeammate. He may be fighting for the "good" side of the Republic, but is pragmatic and ruthless. In ''Fallen Empire,'' he's this through and through -- he never really advocates any dog-kicking actions, and has become nicer since ''Shadow of Revan.'' |
| 343 | * GunsAkimbo: In combat, he relies on two blaster pistols. |
| 344 | * HappilyMarried: [[spoiler:With the player at the end of the Nathema flashpoint, if they so choose.]] |
| 345 | * IWorkAlone: He's willing to team up with Lana, Jakarro, and the PlayerCharacter, but admits that it makes him uncomfortable because he's used to doing everything by himself. If the player follows his RomanceSidequest, he overcomes it a little, saying that relying on someone else hasn't been as bad as he thought. |
| 346 | * InTheBack: [[spoiler:Takes a lightsaber through his back and out his chest at the end of the Nathema flashpoint. The player can rescue him and get him medical attention, or leave him to die.]] |
| 347 | * InformedAttribute: Downplayed. Theron is a good agent, but frequently makes disastrous mistakes that lead to many unnecessary complications and/or deaths, both in the expansions and in supplemental tie-in stories, yet most characters continue to praise what an amazing, unparalleled super-spy he is. |
| 348 | * LoveAtFirstSight: If romanced, his letter to the Outlander after Umbara has him say he loved them from the moment he saw them. |
| 349 | * MissionControl: He serves as the Outlander's for their raids on the Star Fortresses in ''Fallen Empire''. |
| 350 | * MoralLuck: ''Annihilation'' reveals he's always been a {{rogue agent}} who defied orders and botched delicate operations, but since the damage was usually minimal and/or led to outcomes Theron wanted, he would excuse it in his head. His luck runs out on Ziost, where [[spoiler:his unauthorized mission]] serves as a ''massive'' BreakTheHaughty for him. When the Outlander meets him again five years later in ''Fallen Empire'', he's much less reckless and much more of a team player. |
| 351 | * MuggleBornOfMages: Despite being the descendant of Revan and sent to a Jedi temple as a child, he is non-Force-sensitive. |
| 352 | * NoodleIncident: In the short story "[[http://www.swtor.com/info/news/blog/20150213 One Night in the Dealer's Den]]", something about an initiate and a horned goat...something. Theron interrupts at that point. |
| 353 | * ObliviousGuiltSlinging: [[spoiler:Provided you keep him around, he'll do this to an Imperial-aligned character from Ossus onwards, especially if you play Dark-sided. He's visibly saddened and aghast at the war crimes committed by the Sith Empire, but make it clear that he doesn't believe ''you'' could be capable of doing such things...even if you allowed or encouraged such atrocities instead of using your influence to curtail them.]] |
| 354 | * RogueAgent: |
| 355 | ** Following the deaths of Darok and Arkous, the Revanites arrange for him to be labeled as a rogue, prompting him and Lana to go on the run. |
| 356 | ** He didn't learn his lesson. [[spoiler: Recruiting the "Sixth Line" Jedi and going to Ziost without authorization led to ''massive'' disaster on all fronts.]] |
| 357 | ** And he '''''[[RuleOfThree still]]''''' doesn't learn his lesson, since he failed to notify the Outlander (even a romanced one) [[spoiler: and goes off the reservation again to infiltrate the Cult of Zildrog]]! Although in this case, he does have a reason: [[spoiler:the Cult of Zildrog monitored the alliance closely enough that Theron believed they would've noticed him telling the Outlander about his plan. As such, he believed he HAD to act behind the Outlander's back to make his betrayal seem legitimate and get the cult to trust him.]] Whether or not the Outlander accepts this is up to the player. |
| 358 | * RomanceSidequest: He can be romanced regardless of gender or alignment, although he is more cautious of an Imperial player than a Republic one. |
| 359 | * SelfMadeOrphan: Sorta. [[spoiler:If you side with the Empire during the battle for Iokath, he will side against his father who is willing to activate a weapon that could kill everyone on the planet, and any other planet its used on. He even shoots at him a few times. However, before they can come to serious blows, Malcom gets fried by the throne that activates the weapon, but is able to apologize to Theron for what he did before dying.]] |
| 360 | * SpotlightStealingSquad: He and Lana gradually take over as the left and right hand of the PlayerCharacter, with the original companions fading into the background. |
| 361 | * StarCrossedLovers: |
| 362 | ** As with Lana Beniko when romanced by a Republic character, an Imperial character has to break-up with Theron at the end. [[spoiler:Subverted in the ''Fallen Empire'' and ''Eternal Throne'' expansions.]] |
| 363 | ** Since the Jedi Order forbids romance, Theron and a Jedi Knight or Consular are also this. [[spoiler:Also subverted in the ''Fallen Empire'' and ''Eternal Throne'' expansions.]] |
| 364 | * StrongFamilyResemblance: He has a mix of his mother and father's traits, particularly his eyes (Satele) and skintone (Jace). |
| 365 | * TokenEvilTeammate: ''All'' of his suggestions are the Republic flavor of Dark Side, emphasizing sabotage, distrust, and abuse of the momentary truce to further Republic interests. |
| 366 | * TookALevelInKindness: Becomes less abrasive over the course of ''Shadows of Revan,'' and doesn't seem so extreme in ''Knights of the Fallen Empire,'' which takes place five years later. |
| 367 | * WasItAllALie: During "Crisis on Umbara," [[spoiler:a romanced Outlander can ask whether he ever really loved them or if it was all manipulation. Theron gently says he does love them, but other things are more important.

Darok is secretly a member of the Order of Revan, and seeks to end both the Republic and Empire so that a new galactic order can take their place following the final defeat of the Sith Emperor. |

| 441 | * TheDragon: To the Sith. After Minister of Intelligence, whose role doesn't involve combat, Grand Moff is the highest rank available to a non-Sith in the Imperial military. |
| 442 | * EvilBrit: Standard for an Imperial. |
| 443 | * EvilerThanThou: It's heavily implied that Grand Moff Kilran will murder anyone who stands in the way of his plans, including '''Sith'''. During the Black Talon flashpoint, if you antagonize Kilran too much he'll start subtly threatening your character, either by implying that he'll destroy your ship if you don't engage the Brentaal Star or, after the mission, that he's in such a good mood that he ''won't'' poison you for your insolence. Considering that he's a loyal, high ranking member of a society where Force Users are considered the ruling class, it's...odd to say the least. |
| 444 | * {{Expy}}: Of Grand Moff Tarkin. |
| 445 | * GoodScarsEvilScars: Has a nasty burn mark on the left side of his face. |

| 458 | * DyingMomentOfAwesome: He spent half his life making schematics for the Imperial armada. When he took the first prototype Star Destroyer for a test run by attacking a bunch of aliens, Vaiken was killed in the bridge of his spaceship, a fitting end for the first Imperial Grand Moff. |

| 471 | * {{Expy}}: Like C2-N2, he is one of C-3PO. Notably, he doesn't resemble 3PO as much appearance-wise, but is more similar personality-wise: neurotic and living in terror of [[YouHaveFailedMe being disassembled for failing in his duties]]. |
| 472 | * TheLoad: Being a droid who starts with no gear and being unable to use mainhand weapons, he's a crafting mule... and then, he has an affection scale, and can gain affection, but not from conversations, either with him or [=NPCs=] (except in a handful of vanishingly-rare occurrences), meaning in order to get the most out of him as a crafting mule you have to feed him dozens or hundreds of gifts. |
| 473 | * NonActionGuy: Until patch 3.1, he not only had no special attack skills, he couldn't even equip a mainhand weapon, which limited his usefulness in the field, as he was significantly weaker in terms of stats and in order to fight he could only run up to an enemy and punch them. About his most useful asset as a companion was the ability to carry out Crew Missions. When Fallen Empire reworked the companion system, he actually became useful. |
| 474 | * SycophanticServant: He's always praising the player and generally kissing their ass. |

| 497 | * CallToAgriculture: Anri is very interested in the Jedi colony's agricultural research, understanding how vital rebuilding the food supply is to the Empire's war effort. She's also an avid gardener in her spare time. |
| 498 | * DeadpanSnarker: Dryly jokes about a number of topics, such as the former Emperor's plan to eat the entire galaxy. |
| 499 | * DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: Potentially a subdued version of this vis-a-vis the player character: Due to the unfortunately rather limited array of possible answers she gives, she'll always be cheeky and snarky - even when dealing with a DS 5 Sith character with no patience for insubordination and a history of killing underlings left and right. |

Oggurobb eventually became fed up with Toborro and defected to the Republic where he assisted their efforts to evacuate the planet in exchange for immunity and passage off-world. |
| 536 | ---- |
| 537 | * AliensSpeakingEnglish: Although he speaks Huttese when speaking with other Hutts, he prefers to speak Basic with outsiders as a way of earning their trust and to avoid language barriers. Most high-class Hutts in fact speak Basic perfectly well but are too proud to do so in public (conveniently, Huttese is probably the second most commonly spoken language in the galaxy). |

| 541 | * TheBore: When not in a life or death situation, Oggurobb loves to monologue about science. One dialogue option would be to leave while you still can when he is the middle of speaking. |
| 542 | * CatchPhrase: When he's sufficiently inspired, he'll declare "I must create!" |
| 543 | * EarlyBirdCameo: The player might have seen an image of Dr. Oggurobb before playing Rise of the Hutt Cartel, as there is a possible learnable skill that summons a hologram of Dr. Oggurobb to "train" skills from if you don't currently have easy access to your class's Trainer. |
| 544 | * DefectorFromDecadence: He's the first to defect from the Cartel when he realizes Toborro's sanity is crumbling. |
| 545 | * ItsAllAboutMe: Nicer than most Hutts, but still in it primarily for himself. He joins you on Makeb mostly because Toborro was going to get him killed, and later demands that evacuating him be given top priority. |

The Operation[[note]]raid[[/note]] that takes place in there happens after he breaks out and seizes control of the prison's formidable defenses. |

For I ruled a thousand worlds, and Korriban was my crown, Korriban my cradle and my testing ground. I have waited twenty thousand years, but I will wait no longer." |
| 620 | * BlowYouAway: He'll occasionally summon whirlwinds to throw a player around, removing them from the fight. This alongside the Mind Traps. |

| 627 | * SequentialBoss: Twice during the fight, he drops the floor from under the party forcing them to climb down until they reach solid ground once more. Each time he does this, he adds some more tricks to his repertoire. |
| 628 | * ShockAndAwe: He throws balls of lightning periodically throughout the fight. |
| 629 | * TechnoWizard: He apparently hacked the defenses of the Eternity Vault and turned it into his home base, and he calls the Annihilator Droid fought as the opening boss his "finest creation". |
| 630 | * TimeAbyss: If he truly was imprisoned by the Rakata's Infinite Empire, he has got to be ''tens of thousands'' of years old by now, if not much older. |

| 640 | |
| 641 | A Mandalorian bounty hunter who was frequently hired by Darth Malgus for risky undertakings, such as the attack on the Jedi Temple seen in the first cinematic trailer. Ten years later, you meet her again in the Shadows of Revan expansion. Returns as a companion in ''Knights of the Eternal Throne''. |
| 642 | ---- |
| 643 | * DarkActionGirl: Comes with being a Mandalorian in the Sith's pocket. |
| 644 | * AFatherToHisMen: She's got her clan with her [[spoiler:on Rishi and makes sure they're patched up once the players have fought their way through them at the end of her Flashpoint]] |
| 645 | * BountyHunter: She was one of the Empire's most prolific Bounty Hunters. She even has special dialog for the Bounty Hunter class, recognizing them as the champion of the Great Hunt and (if they accepted Mandalore the Vindicated's offer) a fellow Mando. |
| 646 | * CallForward: A subtler example than most. She's likely responsible for the entire Mandalore arc of ''[[WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars The Clone Wars]]''[[note]]''And'' the Mandalore arc in ''[[WesternAnimation/StarWarsRebels Rebels]]'' (canon in the new Expanded Universe, where ''The Old Republic'''s status is dubious at best), which is a sequel to the one in ''The Clone Wars''[[/note]], as Pre Vizsla and several other characters use [[BlackSwordsAreBetter the Darksaber]], which is stated to have been sacked from the Jedi Temple by a Vizsla ancestor. Sound familiar? |
| 647 | * TheChainsOfCommanding: In ''Fallen Empire'', [[spoiler:the stress of leading Mandalorians in battle and keeping them alive (both from the enemy and their own foolhardy) is visibly wearing her down.]] |
| 648 | * ClosestThingWeGot: She's not a general, nor a strategist, nor even a group fighter. She's always been a lone hunter [[spoiler:suddenly thrown in charge of all Mandalorians due to being the most skilled fighter to survive Zakuul.]] |
| 649 | * DefeatEqualsFriendship: To get her help, you have to defeat her first. The Bounty Hunter can go one step further and state that [[YouKillItYouBoughtIt they can kill her and take her clan]], though [[ButThouMust she quickly shoots that idea down]]. |
| 650 | * DidntThinkThisThrough: During ''Fallen Empire'', [[spoiler:Shae has her Mandalorians take out the energy shields to a factory around the same time the Outlander is supposed to bomb it. When they're predictably pinned by enemy fire, the Outlander has to choose between completing the objective anyway and burying them under rubble, or targeting the droids attacking them. The Outlander can call her out on it afterwards.]] |
| 651 | * EnemyMine: To an extent. She and her clan aren't technically aligned with anyone these days. |
| 652 | * EvenEvilHasStandards: She loves a good scrap and signed up with the Empire to aid the Sacking of Coruscant to get it, but after experiencing war long enough she realized it was too chaotic and brutal to be fun. In ''Shadow of Revan'', she [[spoiler:draws the line at resurrecting the Sith Emperor]]. Finally, in ''Fallen Empire'', [[spoiler:she's visibly uncomfortable with her men's eagerness to launch another Neo-Crusade.]] |
| 653 | * EvilRedhead: Well, as far as the Republic (and especially Jedi) are concerned. |
| 654 | * {{Expy}}: (Unconfirmed) of [[VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublicIITheSithLords Mira]] Both are redheaded, female, Mandalorian bounty hunters. |
| 655 | * FalseFriend: You have the opportunity to screw her over twice after she becomes your ally. [[spoiler:The first is during ''KOTFE'' where she's leading an assault on Arcann's droid factory, and Lana suggests that you hide important intel from her and leave her men to die so that her clan is less of a threat in the long term. She'll catch on to your game and she won't like it, [[EasilyForgiven but will ultimately let it slide]] in the interests of staying united against the Eternal Empire. The second time is in Showdown on Ruhnuk where the Dar'manda clan is sabotaging her duel with the ArcVillain and offers to cut you in on their business if you let them get away with it. This time, you can easily lie to her about what happened, and she'll be none the wiser.]] |
| 656 | * ForeignLanguageTirade: She will cuss out her attackers in Mando'a, leading to a BilingualBonus for those who've read up on it. |
| 657 | * FriendlyEnemy: She's remarkably polite to the party that defeats her in Blood Hunt, even the Jedi characters. |
| 658 | * HeelFaceTurn: She'll ally with even a Republic character in the Shadow of Revan expansion and will remain steadfastly loyal to them from that point onwards, even if it means turning on her former paymasters. Especially meaningful if you take her back to The False Emperor flashpoint, where you can have her fight against Darth Malgus despite them previously being allies in the Sacking of Coruscant, [[spoiler:and the fact that she'll remain on your side even after Malgus goes rogue ''again'' in the Onslaught postgame.]] |
| 659 | * InternalReformist: A light-side option at the end of her mission in ''Fallen Empire'' allows the Outlander to encourage her to work to change Mandalorian culture to more of a [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy "proud soldier race" form]] that's able to coexist with the rest of the galaxy more peacefully (the dark-side option is to tell her to attack the Republic or the Empire when the war is over, depending on the Outlander's original faction). Conveniently, this corresponds nicely to the evolution in the portrayal of the Mandalorians over the 4,000 years that pass InUniverse between ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic'' and the ''Literature/RepublicCommandoSeries'' and ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars''. |
| 660 | * KarmaHoudini: Hasn't faced any punishment for her many crimes, like participating in the attack on the Jedi Temple. [[spoiler:Theron, if still alive, will call her out for her role in the sacking of Coruscant in the Old Wounds patch, which she promptly rebuffs by saying [[PunchClockVillain it was just another job for her]].]] |
| 661 | * KillItWithFire: Flame throwers and volcanic vents. [[spoiler: She's called "Torch" for a reason!]] |
| 662 | * NomDeGuerre: "Torch" in ''Shadow of Revan'', appropriate given the fire motif of her boss fight. [[spoiler:"Mandalore the Avenger" beginning in ''Fallen Empire'', after Mandalore the Vindicated from the Bounty Hunter storyline was killed in action battling Zakuul.]] |
| 663 | * PoirotSpeak: Sprinkles some Mando'a into her Basic. |
| 664 | * PragmaticVillainy: She loves a good scrap, but has learned to hate war. |
| 665 | * ProudWarriorRaceGuy: She's a Mando, it comes with the territory. |
| 666 | * RetiredBadass: By the time of the game, she's no longer in the Empire's employ. However, after the battle with Revan, she renegotiates a contract with Darth Marr. |
| 667 | * SchrodingersCanon: She is partially canonized by the Mandalorian arc of ''Rebels''. While not mentioning her by name, Fenn Rau recounts that the Darksaber was liberated from the temple by an ancestor of Clan Vizsla during the fall of the Old Republic. |
| 668 | * ScrewThisImOuttaHere: She was an ally of [[spoiler: Revan's until he got the bright idea to resurrect the Emperor]]. |
| 669 | * SelfDeprecation: By ''Fallen Empire'' [[spoiler:she's become very aware of her shortcomings as a warrior and leader, and not afraid to state it. More than that, unlike [[MyCountryRightOrWrong Torian]], she's painfully aware of the Mandalorian's shortcomings as a culture and people. While she doesn't appreciate the Outlander condoning outright genocide, she seems just as ambivalent about arming her AxeCrazy Mando's as Lana is.]] |
| 670 | * YouAreInCommandNow: [[spoiler:She becomes Mandalore the Avenger when Mandalore the Vindicated died fighting the Eternal Empire]]. |
| 671 | * YouKilledMyFather: She hates the Jedi because they killed her brother. |

| 679 | |
| 680 | Main character of the original game. After the events of ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic'', he tried to kill the Sith Emperor with the help of The Exile and T3-M4, only to be betrayed by their ally Lord Scourge. While The Exile and T3-M4 were killed, The Sith Emperor kept Revan alive, feeding on his massive Force power. |
| 681 | |
| 682 | In certain Republic quest lines it's possible to find and free Revan with the help of the Exile's force ghost, after which Revan finds HK-47's foundry, and plans to amass a droid army to wipe out the Sith. Certain Sith quest lines will then allow you to put a stop to his plans, apparently killing him and HK-47. The ''Shadow of Revan'' expansion reveals that [[spoiler:he is, quite literally, only half dead. Mortally injured by the Sith strike team, Revan attempted to become one with the Force, but the darkness within him resisted. As a consequence, Revan splintered into two beings: light side Revan, [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence who became one with the Force and a Force ghost,]] and dark side Revan, who is willing to destroy both the Republic and the Sith Empire to claim his revenge on the Emperor.]] |
| 683 | ---- |
| 684 | * AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence: [[spoiler: After being split into two beings at the conclusion of the Sith party's assault on him, light side Revan becomes one with the Force, though he often manifests in the material world as a Force ghost.]] |
| 685 | * BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:When he turns up alive after the "Legacy of the Rakata" Flashpoint, he does not deny having died.]] |
| 686 | * BadassBoast: [[spoiler: "I've saved the Republic twice before. I've fought Mandalores and armies of the Dark Side. [[PunctuatedForEmphasis You. Won't. Stop. Me.]]"]] |
| 687 | * BigBad: [[spoiler:His dark half is this]] for ''Shadow of Revan''. |
| 688 | * CoolMask: He still wears his iconic mask, though he does take it off. |
| 689 | * DisappearedDad: [[spoiler:Due to his imprisonment, he never met his son, Vaner.]] |
| 690 | * FateWorseThanDeath: Spent the last 300 odd years in stasis, being slowly drained of power by the Sith Emperor. |
| 691 | * FallenHero: Zig-zagged; he was once the charismatic Jedi Knight who led his fellow Jedi to save the Republic from the Mandalorians. Then he [[WellIntentionedExtremist betrayed the Republic in order to strengthen them to fight the True Sith.]] Then he was betrayed by his best friend. He would redeem himself by saving the Republic again, this time from his EvilFormerFriend. Then he would face the Emperor alongside his past allies & a [[TokenEvilTeammate Sith Lord]]. He was betrayed once again and had to watch his closest allies die in front of him. He would suffer AFateWorseThanDeath for the next 300 years before being freed from his prison. By now he has fallen back to [[PragmaticHero the Dark Side again]]. Now his solution is to exterminate all who have Sith Blood. After encountering a group of the Empire's finest [[spoiler: and being killed, he would have an internal conflict of whether to [[PassingTheTorch move on and let the current Knights of the Republic complete his quest]] or [[RevengeBeforeReason exact revenge against the monster who stopped him from being with his family]]. His good half chooses to move on while his dark half refuses. His dark half begins using his own corpse in order to resurrect the Emperor by sacrificing an entire planet so he can kill him permanently, and he's still being manipulated by the [[ManipulativeBastard being he's trying kill no less!]]]] By the end of ''Shadow Of Revan'' he can only reflect on the horrors he's committed & how much [[WellIntentionedExtremist his actions]] [[ShootTheShaggyDog were ultimately in vain]] before merging with his good half. He is ultimately known as [[VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic Revan ''the Prodigal Knight.'']] |
| 692 | * GoodScarsEvilScars: [[ZigzaggedTrope Ambiguous]], but their existence is [[JustifiedTrope justified]]: The facial marks he is shown with in [=TOR=] and which are often seen in fan art pictures and [=KotOR=] mods aren't tattoos - they're the result of him having worn his mask for ''300 years''. |
| 693 | * HeWhoFightsMonsters: His plan for winning the war may just rival the very Empire he's fighting in terms of how extreme it is. |
| 694 | ** And then he ultimately [[spoiler:ends up as the BigBad of Shadow of Revan, in which he is now trying to destroy the Empire AND the Republic.]] |
| 695 | * IronicEcho: [[spoiler: "And in the end, as the darkness takes me, I am nothing. Now I know how you felt, [[VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic my friend]]."]] |
| 696 | * KnightTemplar: He planned to wipe out an entire planet in order to "save the galaxy". |
| 697 | * LiteralSplitPersonality: [[spoiler: Revan split into two after the Foundry. His Light Side died and became one with the Force and his Dark Side manifested physically as the 'Revan Reborn' first seen in Legacy of the Rakata and who is the main antagonist for Shadow of Revan.]] |
| 698 | ** SplitPersonalityMerge: [[spoiler:After his final defeat, the two reunite, finally letting him rest.]] |
| 699 | * LivingDistantAncestor: To Satele Shan and Theron Shan, thanks to the Sith Emperor keeping him alive for three hundred years. |
| 700 | * NeverFoundTheBody: [[spoiler: Upon his defeat, he disappears in a flash of light before the final blow was struck. His fate is left unknown... until the Forged Alliances questline reveals he's still alive. Or, rather, his dark half. The good half became one with the Force.]] |
| 701 | * OneManArmy: It takes the combined effort of The player character, his/her companion, Darth Marr, Grandmaster Satele, Theron Shan, Lana Beniko, Shae Vizla, among others (most of whom qualify for the trope on their own) to beat him. |
| 702 | * RecurringBoss: For Imperial players. |
| 703 | * RogueProtagonist: From the hero of the original game to an ArcVillain. |
| 704 | * SanitySlippage: Being {{Mind Rape}}d by the Emperor didn't exactly help his sanity. That and attempting to balance both sides of the Force. |
| 705 | * StealthPun: [[spoiler:In the expansion, the half-dead/undead/dark Revan is a Revan-ant.]] |
| 706 | * SuddenlyVoiced: Not only is Revan given an official voice, but an official face as well. |
| 707 | * SuperpoweredEvilSide: [[spoiler:'Revan Reborn' is literally Revan's unleashed dark side possessing his body.]] |
| 708 | * UnwittingPawn: Possibly. His plan probably would have wiped ''most of the Republic'' as well, judging from how much side-swapping, defections, and hidden legacies there are on both sides of the war. Couple that with convincing the Emperor to sign a near-worthless treaty that all but guarantees a protracted war of attrition and keeps the Darths and Imperial military occupied so they don't challenge the Emperor's [[OmnicidalManiac greater plan]]. Furthermore, despite his claims that he resisted the Emperor's attempt to MindRape him for centuries, his obvious SanitySlippage tells a rather different tale. Coupled with the Emperor's desire to enact a galaxy-wide genocide, it's left vague whether this was even "[[BrainwashedAndCrazy his]]" plan to [[MoreThanMindControl begin with]]. The Republic-side Shadow of Revan [[spoiler: confirms this, with Revan's light-side force-ghost flat-out stating that 'he kept telling himself he had been unaffected by The Emperor' during the 300 years he was imprisoned, when his actions were clearly those of a madman.]] It's eventually confirmed that the truce had nothing to do with him; [[spoiler:Vitiate's children had just been born and he wanted to raise them to adulthood before playing out his endgame]]. |
| 709 | * VillainousWidowsPeak: While he's not so much villainous as driven mad, he has a prominent and unique widow's peak. |
| 710 | * WalkingSpoiler |
| 711 | * WellIntentionedExtremist: Still one of his main character traits. Sure, creating an army of war droids to wipe out the Sith could save the Republic, but it'll also mean killing millions upon millions of citizens of the Sith Empire. |
| 712 | ** [[spoiler:Even worse after Forged Alliances, where he turns on the Republic and claims they're too weak to do what must be done. [[JustifiedTrope Justified, since the Revan here is the dark half of his being that remained after the light half peacefully accepted death and ascended.]]]] |
| 713 | ** [[spoiler:Shadow of Revan has him attempting Vitiate's genocidal Ritual of Nathema so he restore Vitiate physically and then kill him.]] |
| 714 | * WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: In the Foundry flashpoint and ''Shadow of Revan'', he is this, as his friends had been killed in front of him, and he was betrayed by his ally, causing him to be left in suspended animation for centuries, during which everyone else he knew perished. No wonder he's out for Vitiate's blood, even disregarding the latter's OmnicidalManiac tendencies. |

Mentor then planned to transmit a signal so every droid around the world would share its consciousness in order to wipe out all organic life. |

| 738 | * ShieldedCoreBoss: He is mainly a StationaryBoss that remains shielded for most of the fight. The main way to defeat him is do destroy the four generators around the room while fighting turrets, a HumongousMecha, and a crane that follows the player and shoots lasers at them. When all the generators are destroyed, Mentor becomes unshielded and delivers heavy damage to the party members so he needs to be killed quickly. |

| 742 | * TurnedAgainstTheirMasters: Mentor created Directive 7 in order to fight against unfair treatment of droids. |

| 796 | * {{Expy}}: Admission: Of HK-47, though when asked by characters who have [[spoiler:most likely fought 47 by now (more than once in the Imperials' cases)]], he insists that he's superior in all fields to his predecessor, and that 47 was '[[AxCrazy too unstable]]'. |
| 797 | ** Extrapolation: Since you had to essentially harvest 47's chassis for the parts needed to complete 51 and bring him back online, in some ways he ''is'' 47. |
| 798 | * KillerRobot: Declaration: One of the finest of its kind. |
| 799 | * PreMortemOneLiner: |
| 800 | ** Recitation: "The Maker marked you. NothingPersonal." |
| 801 | ** Recitation: "YouAreAlreadyDead, just lie down!" |
| 802 | * OneHitKill: Boast: Most assuredly has one of these. Though, it only works on {{mooks}}, and not Elites, [[BossInMookClothing Champions]], or Bosses. Lament: Unfortunately, this ability was removed during companion revamp for Knights of the Fallen Empire. |
| 803 | * ReligiousBruiser / ThankTheMaker: Declaration: Unlike his predecessors, he seems to have a belief in The Maker as a form of droid religion. Of course, he believes the Maker designed him to destroy things, and he is very happy to carry out that function. |
| 804 | * UndyingLoyalty: Statement: {{Justified|Trope}} due to his programming, but actually take the time to get his affection high enough, and his conversations with the player border on idolization. |
| 805 | ** Boast: HK-51, along with fellow optional party members Treek and Nico, are some of the few companions that will JumpAtTheCall of the Alliance and immediately return to your roster, no recruitment mission necessary. He also appears to have built a rapport with the smaller, fuzzier hunter. |
| 806 | * VerbalTic: Declaration: No HK droid is complete without this. |

| 813 | |
| 814 | An Ewok who smuggled herself off of Endor, and took a job as a mercenary. Her contract is purchasable by either faction, and is an unlockable companion. She was a tank/healer hybrid, the only companion in the game with a dual specialization. |
| 815 | ---- |
| 816 | * AffectionateNickname: Refers to the player character as 'Chief.' |
| 817 | * AxCrazy: She describes how she killed the entire crew of the ship she stole to leave Endor with great enthusiasm. |
| 818 | * BadassAdorable: She's an Ewok who is probably the most powerful of the companion characters prior to the rework that made them all functionally the same. |
| 819 | * BloodKnight: If you have to revive her after a fight, one of her responses is ''"But I wanted to fight!"'' Similarly, she admires the Empire for their brutality and the Republic for fighting against powerful foes. |
| 820 | * BribingYourWayToVictory: Same deal as HK-51: She can be unlocked with Cartel Coins, which cost real money. Even moreso, because her Mercenary Contract can be added to your collection, which gives free copies of the item to every character in your account for a little extra Coins. |
| 821 | * CuteAndPsycho: She's an ''Ewok'' - a meter-high critter who looks like a teddy bear, but she's got a thirst for combat and hunting rivaling HK-51 and a long trail of bodies in her wake even ''before'' she signs on with the player. |
| 822 | * GeniusBruiser: Before 4.0 got an efficiency bonus to all crew missions, and an improved chance to crit on crafting missions (even cyber-implants and biotechnology!). |
| 823 | * GlorySeeker: She travels around the galaxy in order to spread her legend. |
| 824 | * JumpedAtTheCall: One of very few companions that return to your service ''immediately'' after the Alliance is fully formed, without even a recruitment mission. |
| 825 | * KillerRabbit: She may be tiny, but she was the most powerful companion character of the game. |
| 826 | * IJustWantToBeSpecial: Her dream is to be a 'legend' among the Ewoks, and states that she is the first Ewok to ever leave Endor. |
| 827 | * ImAHumanitarian: She admits in one Empire-only conversation that she'd like to "try" several sentient species, including Nautolan and Rodian. She doesn't see anything wrong with eating a sentient. Nature was good enough to send meat into her trap, so it would be wasteful not to eat it, right? To her credit, she's no hypocrite in this regard: if the player calls her out on eating sentients, she'll be surprised that you apparently don't plan to eat ''her'' when she dies. |
| 828 | * PintSizedPowerhouse: The first time you see her, she walks through a crowd of people, casually bowling them over. |
| 829 | * RockBeatsLaser: Her primitive technology (by Star Wars standards) kicks every bit as much ass as the Ewoks' same technology did against the Galactic Empire in ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi''. |
| 830 | * SamusIsAGirl: You can express surprise that she's actually female. She'll actually be insulted by this and claims that she's very attractive among her people. |
| 831 | * StayInTheKitchen: One of the reasons she left her home is to avert the trope. |
| 832 | * TeamPet: The player character can basically promote her to this with certain dialogue choices. Yes, even ''AxCrazy Dark Side Sith'' characters have the option of laughing at her and calling her adorable. |
| 833 | * VagueAge: Her character arc was that [[https://imgur.com/1qu4c1z her race has a short lifespan]], and she wanted to burn her mark in the universe before she went. However, her exact age isn't stated. |

| 839 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JamesUrbaniak (C2-D4) |
| 840 | |
| 841 | A Wookie smuggler and his protocol droid, this pair is notorious for crimes ranging from theft to murder. At some point, they were contracted to transport goods to Manaan, but were imprisoned by their customers and turned over to a Selkath researcher for experimentation with Rakata technology by the rogue cult known as the Revanites. Out of a desire for revenge, the Wookie and droid pair assisted in efforts to disrupt and eventually defeat the Revanites. |
| 842 | ---- |
| 843 | * ArtificialLimbs: Jakarro lost his right arm and replaced it with a prosthetic at some point between ''Shadow of Revan'' and ''Onslaught''. |
| 844 | * BloodKnight: Jakarro is always eager for a fight, but surprisingly enough D4, when given an option for revenge, seems even more so. |
| 845 | * EveryoneHasStandards: Both are unhappy with Lana after [[spoiler:she arranges for Theron to be captured by the Revanites]]. They even bring up HonorAmongThieves during their protest. |
| 846 | * {{Expy}}: They are clearly inspired by Chewbacca and C-3PO in ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack'', though personality-wise neither are like Chewie or Threepio. |
| 847 | * IOweYouMyLife: Defied by Jakarro, who refuses to submit to a life debt if you bring it up after springing him from the Manaan prison. |
| 848 | * LaughablyEvil: Both are individuals of low moral fiber (interestingly, the droid arguably even moreso than Jakarro), but still pretty entertaining with all their snarking. |
| 849 | * LosingYourHead: C2-D4 has been reduced to one strapped to Jakarro's chest. |
| 850 | * PutOnABus: They leave at the end of ''Shadow of Revan'' to deal with some "associates" they met on Rishi. |
| 851 | ** TheBusCameBack: They return in Onslaught, becoming a summonable companion. |
| 852 | * ThoseTwoGuys: The spend quite a bit of time bickering with each other. Jakarro, in particular, seems to delight in annoying D4. |

| 859 | A former captain of the Ravagers, Ruugar was betrayed by Coratanni and had his limbs cut off. |
| 860 | ---- |
| 861 | * AnArmAndALeg: Ruugar literally had an arm and a leg sliced off by Coratanni. |
| 862 | * ArtificialLimbs: His missing limbs were replaced with cybernetics. |
| 863 | * ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: It turns out Coratanni backstabbed Ruugar because he backstabbed her first. He later betrays the players after they defeated Coratanni. |
| 864 | * FinalBoss: After the player defeats Coratanni, Ruugar betrays them and the player boards his ship and battles him. |
| 865 | * HumanShield: One boss mechanic involves him capturing a player and if the raid team attacks him it will damage the player instead. |

| 875 | * EyepatchOfPower: A cybernetic ocular implant covers her right eye-socket. |
| 876 | * FluffyTheTerrible: Her pet Flutterplume, a gigantic scavenging bird, is called Pearl. |
| 877 | * RedBaron: She is referred to as the Pirate Queen. |
| 878 | * TheStarscream: She overthrew Ruugar and took control of the Ravagers. She justifies it as payback for Ruugar betraying her previously. |

| 883 | [[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/the_shroud.png]] |
| 884 | |
| 885 | A legendary spy who first appeared in the ''Rise of the Hutt Cartel'' expansion. This man was hired by the Hutts to spy on both the Republic and the Empire but would soon plan to sabotage both factions. [[spoiler: It turns out that "The Shroud" everyone thinks they saw was just a hired actor to be the organization's face. The ''real'' Shroud is a droid named Z0-0M. By the time you meet her, though, she is suffering from a very bad case of memory leakage that causes her to periodically reset and forget almost everything - including that she is the Shroud.]] |
| 886 | ---- |
| 887 | * AmnesiacDissonance: The biggest case this side of a full light-side Revan run. [[spoiler: The Shroud is a ruthless and cruel power broker with eyes and ears across the galaxy. [[AmnesiacsAreInnocent Z0-0m is a cheerful and silly]] GenkiGirl of a droid. A memory glitch causes the former to become the latter.]] |
| 888 | * BadBoss: [[ZigZaggingTrope Zig-Zagged]]. On one hand, a condition of employment just to be a ''janitor'' in The Shroud's base is to be blinded, and breaking the rules meets with DisproportionateRetribution (see below), but the janitor is insulted if you remark on the cruelty - he did go through twenty interviews to get the job, and agreed to the blindness as a condition of employment. [[SignedUpForTheDental The benefit package is allegedly amazing.]] |
| 889 | * BaldOfEvil: Well, yes. [[spoiler: Droids don't have hair.]] |
| 890 | * BewareTheSillyOnes: [[spoiler: Z0-0m is hard to take seriously with her glitching memory and comic demeanor. But she is still heavily armed, even without remembering what she is.]] |
| 891 | * BigBadEnsemble: Fills this role in the expansion, working against the Empire and the Republic. |
| 892 | * CallAHumanAMeatbag: [[spoiler: Z0-0m likes to refer to organics as "lumps." As in "You're a good lump!"]] |
| 893 | * CatchPhrase: [[spoiler:Z0-0M has a habit of saying "Noooo, I think I'd remember that."]] |
| 894 | * TheChessmaster:[[spoiler: In the Hk-55 bonus chapter it is revealed that The Shroud has been manipulating events which would lead to the Republic and the Empire discovering the Eternal Empire.]] |
| 895 | * CriminalAmnesiac: [[spoiler: "Hello, I am Z0-0M and I am newly activated! Nice to meet you!"]] |
| 896 | * {{Cyborg}}: Has similar cybernetics as Lobot from ''Empire Strikes Back''. |
| 897 | * DeadAllAlong: Turns out that [[spoiler:the real Shroud's personality was erased right at the start of the chapter, and all the plans you are trying to disrupt are ones that'd been set in motion earlier]]. |
| 898 | * DisproportionateRetribution: A worker in The Shroud's base stared at an active terminal for three seconds longer than The Shroud allowed. The Shroud made sure the worker was blinded, has their tongue cut out, and their fingers amputated. |
| 899 | * ElaborateUndergroundBase: An amazingly over the top one with parts of it underwater and another part of it in low orbit. [[spoiler: {{Justified}} because much of wasn't designed for an ''organic'' to use.]] |
| 900 | * {{Expy}}: Of your standard issue ''Film/JamesBond'' villain. [[spoiler: Making it all the more comedic when the ''real'' Shroud turns out to be more or less [[WesternAnimation/FindingNemo Dory]] in a droid body.]] |
| 901 | ** [[spoiler:Could also be seen as a more comical take on G0-T0.]] |
| 902 | * FakingTheDead: [[spoiler:When the players finally infiltrate and defeat The Shroud in the Hutt Cartel chapter, it turns out that the player actually defeated a doppelganger while the real Shroud is still out there.]] |
| 903 | ** In the HK-55 Chapter, this gets [[ZigZaggingTrope Zig-Zagged]]. [[spoiler:Turns out this fellow is just the face for the organization. The "real" Shroud is a droid who is suffering from some debilitating memory glitches and had no idea she was The Shroud all along. It's up to you if you spare her and have her join the Alliance or if you destroy her.]] |
| 904 | * HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler: Z0-0m, post-memory loss, turns out to be an ''incredibly'' sweet and helpful droid who considers HK-55 her friend, and she isn't going to blow up the Alliance because she doesn't want her friends hurt.]] |
| 905 | * TheManBehindTheMan: What he often is to galactic events, manipulating them to his benefit and spying on all factions. [[spoiler: It's more like the droid behind the man]]. |
| 906 | * SamusIsAGirl: [[spoiler:Z0-0M has feminine programming and vocorder settings.]] |
| 907 | * SendInTheClones: [[spoiler:See above.]] But it also turns out [[spoiler:that Z0-0M can alter her appearance via holographic tech.]] |
| 908 | * TheSpymaster: He makes the S.I.S look like amateurs. |
| 909 | * TerroristWithoutACause: As he himself freely admits, his big plan to [[spoiler:crash a dreadnaught into the Republic and Empire's capital cities]] isn't part of some big political message or goal. He's doing it [[ChallengeSeeker purely to prove that he can]]. |
| 910 | * TomatoSurprise: [[spoiler: Yup. Poor Z0-0m. She had no idea.]] |
| 911 | * UnknownRival: To the Outlander. The Shroud sees itself as the Outlander's rival. The Outlander is barely aware of its existence. |
| 912 | * WalkingSpoiler: Yeah. It's hard not to talk about a spymaster otherwise. |
