Viszla\'s Hypocrite entry is based on Karen Traviss-based lore that is now part of the Legends continuity, so no longer appropriate for this page.
!!Mandalore
A heavily urbanized planet that holds much respect amongst the neutral systems, Mandalore was once home to a highly militant culture, but in recent years has abandoned its former conquest-driven ways and striven to embrace peace. As a consequence, it tries to stay out of the Clone Wars as much as possible.
----
* AsskickingEqualsAuthority[=/=]YouKillItYouBoughtIt: During their warrior-past, Mandalorians believed in following the strongest fighters, and so leadership was settled through ritualised fights, presumably to the death. Any warrior who thought they could be a better leader could take over, if they were capable of defeating the old leader.
* BroadStrokes: Some of the commentary during ''The Clones Wars'' implies that certain aspects of the ''Legends'' canon remains true, though to what extent is never made clear. For example, Mandalorians used to be a highly militaristic society and used to have a particular rivalry with/enmity for the Jedi: in the ''Legends'' canon (especially that not written by Karen Traviss), Mandalorians were brutal war-worshipping conquerors who fought on the side of the Sith in every Sith/Jedi war for centuries.
* CityPlanet: It's unclear if Mandalore falls into this or into MegaCity. It's very heavily urbanised, though not quite as drastically as Coruscant.
* KlingonScientistsGetNoRespect: Although the precise cultural breakdown pre-Clone Wars is never clarified, Mandalorians were originally divided between warrior and non-warrior groups. Eventually, the non-warriors got so sick of the warriors that they exiled them.

* {{Hypocrite}}: He claims to be a true Mandalorian, but in practice, he and his Death Watch aren't really much closer to the true Mandalorian ideal than Satine's pacifist regime is. For one thing, [[EvenEvilHasStandards Mandalorians are supposed to have standards]] and [[WouldntHurtAChild children are sacred to Mandalorians]]. Pre Vizsla ignores both of these things when he [[MoralEventHorizon murdered a teenage girl and casually destroyed an entire village]]. Also, to a Mandalorian, betraying someone you've entered an alliance with is considered disgraceful. Three guesses what Vizsla does to Maul and Savage.

[[folder: Satine Kryze]]
!!Duchess Satine Kryze
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/satine_kryze_sw_7644.jpg]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Anna Graves
->'''Appears in:''' ''WesternAnimation/TheCloneWars''
-->''"I remember a time when Jedi were not generals, but peacekeepers."''
A devoted pacifist, Satine is the ruler of Mandalore. In her youth she was targeted by political adversaries, and was put under the protection of Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his Padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi. During the year they spent on the run, Satine and Obi-Wan had deeply fallen in love with one-another, but ultimately Obi-Wan chose the Order. The two were reunited during the Clone Wars, when the actions of the Death Watch drew the Senate's attention to Mandalore.
----
* ActualPacifist: Deconstructed, as her stubborn insistence to absolute pacifism left Mandalore vulnerable on innumerable levels, which was exploited by Vizsla's Death Watch and Maul's criminal empire.
* ActionGirl: In her debut episode she ends up saving Obi-Wan's life. Later instances include disarming someone who held her hostage and had a blaster pushed to her temple, finding the evidence that saved Mandalore from being invaded by Republic troops, and investigating the cause of a mass food poisoning personally.
%%* [[AntiHero Anti-Heroine]]
* AnguishedDeclarationOfLove: As she's held hostage, she confesses to Obi-Wan, that she's loved him ever since they first met. Obi-Wan then returns it.
** She affirms it [[KilledOffForReal one]] [[DiedInYourArmsTonight last]] [[DyingDeclarationOfLove time]] in "The Lawless".
* BackToBackBadasses: With Obi-Wan, while destroying the small assasin probes in "Voyage of Temptation.
%* [[BadassPrincess Badass Duchess]]
* BadassNormal: Has no Force powers.
* BadassPacifist: She's a Mandalorian pacificist. She may not be a [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Proud Warrior Race Girl]] like her ancestors, but she's still got the Mandalorian determination. She won't let others try to assassinate her either.
--->'''Satine:''' Just because I'm a pacifist doesn't mean I won't defend myself!
* BelligerentSexualTension: With Obi-Wan.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: In "Voyage of Temptation", when Merrick was distracted, Satine head-butted him and actually grabbed his blaster and aimed it at Merrick's head.
* [[ClassicalAntiHero Classical Anti-Heroine]]: Satine is a good, heroic person, but her [[FatalFlaw flaws]] cripple her ability to fulfill her dream of a peaceful Mandalore, ultimately bringing ruination to her world, her people, and herself.
* CosmicPlaything: The sheer level of suffering and pain levied against this woman is ''staggering''.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: According to Obi-Wan, most of Satine's people ([[AllThereInTheManual including her father]]) were killed in a civil war, and she spent a year on the run from Mandalorian insurgents and bounty hunters alongside Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon.
* DeadpanSnarker: Especially towards [[BelligerentSexualTension Obi-Wan]].
-->'''Satine:''' Senators, I presume you're acquainted with the collection of [[MetaphoricallyTrue half]]-[[ContinuityNod truths]] and [[Film/ANewHope hyperbole]] known as [[Film/ReturnOfTheJedi Obi-Wan Kenobi]]?
--> '''Obi-Wan:''' Your Highness is too kind.
--> '''Satine:''' You're right. I am.
* {{Deconstruction}}: Her character is essentially a deconstruction of pacifism and why it doesn't work in a galaxy at war, where everyone wants to exploit the weaker.
* DiedInYourArmsTonight: She passed away in Obi-Wan's arms.
* DyingDeclarationOfLove: With her last breath she reinforced her earlier confession to Obi-Wan.
* FamousLastWords: "Remember, my dear Obi-Wan... I've loved you always. [[TearJerker I always will]]..."
* FatalFlaw: Her devotion to pacifism and democracy. It leaves her helpless to defend against Darth Maul and Pre Vizsla's plot to topple her government and conquer Mandalore, which ultimately results in her own death.
* TheFettered: Deconstructed. Satine's dedication to her morals and beliefs prove to be a ''major'' liability in her conflicts with [[TheUnfettered the likes of]] Vizsla and Maul.
* GoodIsNotSoft: Satine is a pacifist, but she's far from a pushover.
%%* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Not always (she did fall in love with [[KnightInShiningArmor Obi-Wan]] [[NiceGuy Kenobi]], after all), but she was fooled by [[BloodKnight Vizsla]], [[TheMole Merrick]], and [[EvilChancellor Almec]], believing each of them to be loyal allies.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: By Darth Maul with the darksaber.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Satine can be quite self-righteous and defensive, although the latter is largely due to stress, and neither stops her from ultimately being a good person.
* MamaBear: Children getting hurt is large BerserkButton for her.
* NotSoStoic: She breaks down in tears during Obi-Wan's [[FakingTheDead fake funeral]].
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: When children got food-poisoning from toxic tea, bought by officals on the black market, she went into such a rage, she completely abondoned her pacifist views, and even '''threatened''' a suspect with physical violence if he didn't start talking.
* RedOniBlueOni: The blue to Bo-Katan's red.
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Not that her efforts do much good or succeed in the end.
* StarCrossedLovers: With Obi-Wan. He's a Jedi, sworn to protect the Republic and it's peace and to not form personal attachments. She's the duchess of a ruined planet which she tried to rebuild by turning her people's ProudWarriorRaceGuy culture into a pacifist society. In the end, theirs was a love that could not be, however much they might have cared for each other.
* SiblingYinYang: With Bo-Katan.
* ShootTheShaggyDog: After all her efforts, and all that she endured in her quest to free Mandalore of corruption and rededicate it to peace, Satine's story [[DownerEnding ends with her mission as a total failure, and with herself being murdered by Darth Maul for the sake of torturing the man she loves]].
* ShoutOut: To Satine from MoulinRouge, another romantic interest to a character played by EwanMcGregor.
* TragicDream: A Mandalore dedicated to peace, free of corruption and the scourges of war. Tragic, because nearly ''all'' of Satine's apparent advisors turned out to be secretly against her, and her every attempt to purge corruption from her government and defend Mandalore proved to be fleeting successes at best, resulting in Pre Vizsla (followed swiftly by Darth Maul) conquering the planet, leaving Satine in prison, and ultimately, Satine's death and Mandalore being consumed by a civil war.
* TragicHero: Her entire life's work is completely undone by Pre Vizsla and Darth Maul, and she is posthumously considered a traitor to her people.
* TraumaCongaLine: All of her speaking appearances involve Satine suffering in some way, but it's taken UpToEleven in "Shades of Reason": Darth Maul uses his criminal empire to destabilize Satine's government and turn her people against her, allowing Satine's enemy Pre Vizsla to take over with the public's support (by staging a magnificent defeat of Maul's forces, which had been planned in advance by Vizsla and Maul) and throwing Satine in prison for supposed "treason". Maul then murders Vizsla and uses Satine as a scapegoat, allowing him to rule Mandalore through a puppet Prime Minister (another enemy of Satine's, as well as a black marketeer responsible for poisoning numerous innocent children), all while Satine rots in prison, unable to do anything about it. It reaches its peak in "The Lawless", where she's murdered by Maul just to make Obi-Wan suffer.
* UnlimitedWardrobe: In almost every episode she appears in, she puts up a new dress.
* WeUsedToBeFriends: With Bo-Katan. Which makes sense, considering that they're sisters.
* TheWomanWearingTheQueenlyMask: Fits this trope to a T.
* WideEyedIdealist: Her New Mandalorian pacifistic utopia facade conceals a failed state where everyone is corrupt, a governor is secretly a terrorist leader, the Prime Minister plots a coup d'etat with his SecretPolice, food shortages are constant since the beginning of the war (from which Mandalore stays away), and generally she's the only one who really believes in her utopia, remaining oblivious until the trouble's knocking on her door.

[[folder: Pre Vizsla]]
!!Pre Vizsla
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pre_vizsla_sw_8483.png]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JonFavreau
->'''Appears in:''' ''WesternAnimation/TheCloneWars''
-->''"For generations, my ancestors fought proudly as warriors against the Jedi."''
Leader of the Death Watch, a Mandalorian terrorist group that seeks to overthrow Duchess Satine's peaceful government and return the Mandalorians to their warrior roots. Initially aligned with Count Dooku and the Separatists, Vizsla had a falling out with the Count, resulting in Dooku slashing into Vizsla's face with his lightsaber, disfiguring Vizsla and leading the Mandalorian to seek vengeance against Dooku, as well as maintaining his goal of reclaiming Mandalore.
----
* ArchEnemy: To Satine.
* AssholeVictim: He's a total jerk who was perfectly willing to put innocent lives at stake just so he could rule Mandalore. He also killed a girl and burnt down her village for no reason at all. Then he was killed by Maul.
* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: He's such a firm believer of this that he accepts his defeat at the hands of Maul graciously, simply stating that "only the strongest shall rule."
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: The leader of Death Watch and the most badass fighter of it.
* BadassCape: Complete with dramatic removal prior to dueling Obi-Wan.
* BadassInCharge: Of the Death Watch.
* BadassNormal: Holds his own against a Jedi Master, a dual-wielding Padawan, and finally a Sith Lord in a lightsaber fight without the benefit of Force powers (though this doesn't appear to be particularly unusual for Mandalorian warriors). His ability to leap roughly his own height while wearing full body armor and a jetpack is rather impressive as well.
* BaldOfEvil: Starts rockin' the skinhead look in season 4.
* BigBadDuumvirate: He and Darth Maul form one in "Eminence", although by the end of the episode, he's demoted to being TheStarscream, plotting to [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness betray Maul as soon as they've reclaimed Mandalore]]. In "Shades of Reason", [[spoiler: the whole affair [[OutGambitted ends]] [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown rather]] [[OffWithHisHead badly]] [[KilledOffForReal for him]] (although he takes it [[FaceDeathWithDignity quite well]]).
* BitchInSheepsClothing: In "The Mandalore Plot", he poses as a loyal advisor to Satine. After his duplicity is revealed, Vizsla never bothers with such a facade again.
* BlondGuysAreEvil: Something of a subversion, as virtually all Mandalorians to appear in the series are blond, with Vizsla being one of only a handful of antagonistic ones (that have visible heads/faces, at least).
* BloodKnight: The entire point of the Death Watch movement is to restore Mandalore's warrior culture, and Vizsla himself has shown a definite taste for battle, which Count Dooku derided as a weakness.
* BondVillainStupidity: Opting to imprison Maul and Savage rather than executing them immediately.
* CharacterDeath: Decapitated by Darth Maul in "Shades of Reason".
* CombatPragmatist: He may agree to a one-on-one duel, but don't think for a minute he'll fight fairly. Guns, bombs, flamethrowers, his jet pack; anything's fair game in his book.
* ConspicuousCG: Of a sort, given it's all CG anyway; compared to everything else, his darksaber looks very strange when activated and looks even more so when it's being waved around. But that's probably the point: to illustrate just how unusual the device is.
* DeathByIrony: He was determined to return his people to their warrior ways at any cost, only to ultimately die partaking in one of his people's old traditions.
* EvilSoundsDeep: Only with his helmet on, though.
* EvilVersusEvil: He and Dooku had a falling out that lead to Vizsla trying to locate and kill Dooku, and Dooku making Vizsla an example of ScarsAreForever.
** He plotted against Darth Maul, during their alliance, betraying him in "Shades of Reason", and dueling him later in the same episode, a fight that ends in Vizsla's demise.
* FaceDeathWithDignity: To his credit, he does acknowledge that he deserves to die since Maul has proven himself to be his superior.
* FatalFlaw: {{Pride}}. Vizsla's arrogance leads him to make some costly mistakes, such as attempting to engage a Jedi Master in a lightsaber duel (which Vizsla likely survived only because Obi-Wan didn't want to kill anyone in front of [[ActualPacifist Satine]]), and forging an alliance with Count Dooku. The trope name becomes literal in "Shades of Reason"; Vizsla's sense of warrior pride causes him to face Darth Maul, a superior warrior, in single combat, which results in Vizsla's own death.
* FauxAffablyEvil: He speaks politely enough, but it falls completely flat once he shows what he's really capable of.
* GoryDiscretionShot: Not surprisingly, we're not shown the image of his head being separated from his body, but the Director's Cut version of the episode does provide a shot of his headless corpse.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Double dose. Not only [[OffWithHisHead does he get decapitated by his own darksaber]], but it was by someone who's life he had previously saved and then entered an alliance with.
* GoodScarsEvilScars: Quite evil.
* HonorBeforeReason: See LetsFightLikeGentlemen below.
* {{Hypocrite}}: He claims to be a true Mandalorian, but in practice, he and his Death Watch aren't really much closer to the true Mandalorian ideal than Satine's pacifist regime is. For one thing, [[EvenEvilHasStandards Mandalorians are supposed to have standards]] and [[WouldntHurtAChild children are sacred to Mandalorians]]. Pre Vizsla ignores both of these things when he [[MoralEventHorizon murdered a teenage girl and casually destroyed an entire village]]. Also, to a Mandalorian, betraying someone you've entered an alliance with is considered disgraceful. Three guesses what Vizsla does to Maul and Savage.
* ImpossiblyCoolWeapon: Wields the Darksaber, a [[BlackSwordsAreBetter black-bladed]], [[LaserBlade lightsaber]] [[KatanasAreJustBetter katana]] looted from the Jedi Temple centuries ago by one of his [[AncestralWeapon ancestors]]. After besting Vizsla in a duel, Darth Maul takes the weapon for his own, using it to [[HoistByHisOwnPetard execute Vizsla]].
* IronicName: Vizslas are known for being gentle mannered, very loyal, and caring towards their owners and getting along with children greatly. This guy betrayed his monarch, is a terrorist, aims to be a dictator, and burns down villages for fun.
* JetPack: Which has a habit of getting damaged whenever he agrees to a duel.
* KnightTemplar: He views Death Watch's campaign to conquer Mandalore as a righteous cause, and believes that executing a Jedi (traditionally enemies to the Mandalorians) is "justice".
* LaserBlade: One of only two non-Force sensitives in the series to regularly use one.
* LetsFightLikeGentlemen: Gives Obi-Wan his lightsaber back so that they can fight more evenly.
** Averted when he just planned to execute Ahsoka on the spot after he captured her. She didn't have her lightsabers at the time, but he didn't even give her a fighting chance.
** Played with when Maul challenged him to fight one-on-one: due to the very traditions he believed in, he couldn't refuse the challenge.
* MistreatmentInducedBetrayal: Dooku dismissed Death Watch as useless after a failed attempt to deal with Duchess Satine. Vizsla even got a scar courtesy of Dooku (he doesn't explain exactly how he got it). Now he's dedicated to taking Dooku down.
* TheNapoleon: Is about the same height as Maul.
* OffWithHisHead: Just like Jango Fett before him.
* OutGambitted: By Darth Maul, who easily put him out of business when he was no longer needed.
* ProudWarriorRaceGuy: Essentially, his entire reason for being involved with the CIS at all is disgust with Mandalorian society having distanced itself from its martial heritage.
* SmugSnake: While a competent warrior, he's nowhere nearly badass enough in a universe full of Force-users, and when he enters an alliance with Darth Maul and Savage, he's clearly the least competent and creative of the trio.
* TheSocialDarwinist: He shows definite signs of this trope, burning down a village as a lesson to Lux not to "let the weak push you around", and calmly accepting his own death, claiming that only the strong prevail.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Although his name is pronounced as "Visla/Vizla" in the original dub, it's actually spelled "Vi'''zs'''la" as he was named after a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vizsla breed of Hungarian pointer hounds]].
* SuperWristGadget: Similarly to Cad Bane, his armor's wrist part contains at least a flamethrower, a grappling-cabel-launcher and some sort of shuriken-launcher.
* TheStarscream: To Darth Maul. He succeeds, briefly, but soon [[KilledOffForReal pays]] for his betrayal. A rare case where both halves of a BigBadDuumvirate qualify as TheStarscream.
* TookALevelInBadass: In season 2 and season 4, respectively, he held his own against Obi-Wan and Ahsoka in combat, but they both prevailed without too much trouble. In season 5, he has a protracted one-on-one battle with Darth Maul (who is, mind, at least Obi-Wan's equal) and came a lot closer to winning than he ever did against those two.
* TookALevelInJerkass: He's become ''[[AxCrazy much]]'' [[DisproportionateRetribution more]] [[MoralEventHorizon evil]] since season 2.
* TheUnfettered: He'll get in bed with ''anyone'' who can help him reclaim Mandalore. Unfortunately for Vizsla, he doesn't temper this dedication with discretion; his alliance with Darth Maul backfires spectacularly.
* VillainTeamUp: With Darth Maul and Savage Opress in Season 5, with Maul promising Vizsla that he and his brother can help the Death Watch reclaim Mandalore. Vizsla quickly gets pushed to the sidelines, betrays Maul after taking Mandalore, and is eventually killed by Maul for betraying him.
* VillainWithGoodPublicity: He manages to become this in "Shades of Reason". He and his Death Watch deal with a criminal uprising on Mandalore, which Maul has engineered to make them look like heroes. He retains this status posthumously, with Maul's puppet Almec claiming that Vizsla had been murdered by Satine, allowing Maul (through Almec) to rule Mandalore in Vizsla's memory.
* WalkingArmory: His arsenal includes a lightsaber, at least two blasters, several hand grenades, the SuperWristGadget and it's hidden weapons mentioned above, a jet pack, with rocket-launcher on the top of it, not to mention the armor itself.
* WrongGenreSavvy: He knew better than to fully trust Darth Maul, and planned on killing him once Maul's army had helped Death Watch reclaim Mandalore, but he didn't count on Maul counting on his betrayal.
* WouldHurtAChild[=/=]WouldHitAGirl: Stabbed one InTheBack and kicked Ahsoka hard enough to send her flying back several meters during their duel.
* YouHaveFailedMe: Shoots one of his own men for failing to kill Obi-Wan and Satine. He even says "failure" as he does it.

-->''"Mandalore will survive. We always survive."''
Pre Vizsla's [[TheDragon lieutenant]] in the Death Watch, and leader of a small commando force known as the Night Owls. She is also Duchess Satine's sister.
----
* AnimalMotifs: Owls.
* AntiVillain: Starts out as a straight villain, evolves into an AntiVillain in Season 5.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Pre Vizsla's [[TheDragon second-in-command]], and easily (at least) the second best fighter of Death Watch.
* BadassInCharge: Of the Night-Owls branch of the Death Watch.
* BadassNormal: She fought Ahsoka hand-to-hand, and initially had the upperhand. For the record, Ahsoka is skilled and strong enough to fight ''Trandoshans'' hand-to-hand.
* BloodKnight: A given for any Mandalorian warrior.
* BolivianArmyEnding: In the "Lawless" she's last seen engaged in a desperate shoot-out with the Mandalorians loyal to Maul.
* BullyingADragon: Belittling a Sith Lord when he's standing right next to you. [[NeckLift The end result is predictable.]]
* CainAndAbel: Implied with Satine, although by the time they share any screentime, they have a common enemy in Darth Maul.
* CoolHelmet: A variation on the Mandalorian standard; her's is modeled after a bird of prey.
%%* DarkActionGirl
* DarkAndTroubledPast: [[ImpliedTrope Implied]]. Obi-Wan stated in "Voyage of Temptation" that most of Satine's people were killed in a civil war. Since Bo-Katan is Satine's sister, it can be assumed that she went through much of the same ordeals. Given that she wound up with [[BloodKnight Death Watch]], Bo may have even had it ''worse'' than Satine.
%%* DeadpanSnarker
* DesignatedGirlFight: In her first appearance, she had to fight Ahsoka.
* TheDragon: She seems to be Pre Vizsla's top lietunant.
* DragonAscendant: After Maul kills Vizsla, Bo-Katan takes over command of the Death Watch soldiers who refuse to follow Maul.
* EnemyMine: With Obi-Wan Kenobi and Satine against the Mandalorian Death Watch loyal to Darth Maul. She even lampshades it with the classic "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" line.
** Lucasfilm's post-Season 6 spoiler dump shows that she and Ahsoka would have become associates under unknown circumstances.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Her sister Satine, who's death clearly saddened her.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Condemns [[spoiler:Maul and Savage]] as "monsters", and is clearly uncomfortable aligning with them.
* EvilRedhead: Before her face was even revealed on-screen, a [[AllThereInTheManual supplementary drawing]] by Dave Filoni had already revealed Bo-Katan to be a redhead. This makes her quite a rarity among the blond-haired Mandalorians.
* FieryRedhead: Even though she's usually calm, she's still rather aggressive due to being part of a Mandalorian splinter group.
%%* [[FormFittingWardrobe Form Fitting Armor]]
* GenreSavvy: She openly advises against allying with Darth Maul, mentioning from experience that Sith Lords can't be trusted. She's right on the money, but it doesn't do Vizsla any good.
* GunsAkimbo: While covering Obi-Wan's escape in "The Lawless".
* HelmetsAreHardlyHeroic: Until the "The Lawless", in which she joined the "good guys", she had never been shown fighting without her helmet on. In that episode she was never seen wearing it.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Condemns the Mandalorians who side with Maul as "traitors" when, in Mandalorian tradition, slaying the old boss [[ChallengingTheChief makes you the new boss]]. Technically, she and her Night Owls are the traitors. This is [[AllThereInTheManual addressed in the episode commentary]], which explains that Bo-Katan's loyalties are towards Pre Vizsla and Mandalore as a planet rather than the Mandalorian code of honor, which is why she kicks off the Mandalorian Civil War.
* JetPack: Standard issue for members Mandalorian warriors.
* MoralMyopia: She's not working against Darth Maul and Savage out of the goodness of her heart. She's only opposing them because Maul killed Pre Vizsla, who she has UndyingLoyalty to.
* [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Proud Warrior Race Girl]]: She's a Mandalorian warrior. It's part of the package.
* PsychoticSmirk: A couple times in "Eminence" and once in "Shades Of Reason".
* RedOniBlueOni: The red to Satine's blue, since it was revealed that she was Satine's sister. It also helps since she has [[FieryRedhead red hair]].
* SiblingYinYang: With Satine.
%%* SignificantGreenEyedRedhead
* UndyingLoyalty: To Vizsla; when he's killed, she's visibly horrified and refuses to serve his killer even though he earned the title of Mandalore fair and square.
* WaifFu: She largely depends on her agility when fighting, and with great success, given how easily she dispatched two Death Watch soldiers of Maul's section.

* CorruptPolitician: He used his power to bloat the food-shortages on Mandalore, and used the black market to profit from it. Of course he claims he was buying supplies on the black market, but the length he goes to cover up the whole thing, leaves little doubt that he was lying.

A senator with ties to the Mandalore system, and who is working with Death Watch.
----
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Yet another "ally" of Satine's who was working against her. The woman either had terrible luck with friends, or was a HorribleJudgeOfCharacter.
* BreakThemByTalking: He actually does a good job of demoralising Obi-Wan and Satine while presenting his SadisticChoice.
* CardCarryingVillain: Satine dubs Merrick a "horrid monster", to which Merrick simply replies "get used to it".
* CharacterDeath: He is killed by Anakin.
** ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: By Anakin's lightsaber.
** InTheBack: He didn't know Anakin was behind him, leaving himself open to be stabbed.
* DeadpanSnarker: Fond of a little villainous snarking. Especially evident when pointing out to Kenobi that he'd be seen as a hero by everyone if he simply killed him, as he's done to many others in battle, and saved the people on the ship. ''Except'' by the woman he loves that is.
-->'''Merrick:''' And you, General Kenobi, you're no stranger to violence. You'd be hailed as a hero by everyone on this ship! ''Almost'' [[ActualPacifist everyone]].

* {{Jerkass}}: He cruelly mocked Obi-Wan and Satine's feelings for each other.
* TheMole: For Death Watch.
* SadisticChoice: He presents one to Obi-Wan and Satine: either kill him, which would either ruin Obi-Wan's standing with Satine, or prove Satine a {{Hypocrite}} (depending on who did the deed) or let him go and allow him to blow up the ship. Fortunately, Anakin [[TakeAThirdOption intervened]].

* StrikeMeDownWithAllOfYourHatred: He's quite happy to goad either Satine or Kenobi into killing him and proving themselves hypocrites, though he's fairly certain they won't. But then Anakin kills him without so much as a second thought due to [[PragmaticHero pragmatism]].

Nephew of Satine and Bo-Katan, Korkie is a Cadet at the Mandalorian Royal Academy of Government.
----
* TheGhost: Not Korkie himself, but his parents. Satine is explicitly referred to as Korkie's aunt, Bo-Katan appears to be too young to be his mother, and the fact that he shares his last name with Satine indicates that he is related to her through an unseen brother. However, neither of Korkie's parents have appeared, or even been mentioned in the series.
%%* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold
* [[SnoopingLittleKid Snooping Teen]]: In "The Academy", he and his class-mates investigated the artificially bloated food shortages on Mandalore, and with the help of Ahsoka, exposed Almec as the head of the whole incident.
* TookALevelInBadass: In "The Academy", he was just a kid in over his head in trying to investigate corruption. In "The Lawless", however, he's [[spoiler:breaking his aunt out of prison and gunning down Death Watch commandos.]]
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: In "The Lawless", he was knocked out by a Death Watch commando during an attempt to break Satine out of prison. While later in the episode Almec claimed that Satine's accomplices had all escaped, this is highly unlikely in Korkie's case since was right beside Satine when he was attacked. Nothing further is known about him.

-->''"I remember a time when Jedi were not generals, but peacekeepers."''
A devoted pacifist, Satine is the ruler of Mandalore. In her youth she was targeted by political adversaries, and was put under the protection of Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his Padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi. During the year they spent on the run, Satine and Obi-Wan had deeply fallen in love with one-another, but ultimately Obi-Wan chose the Order. The two were reunited during the Clone Wars, when the actions of the Death Watch drew the Senate's attention to Mandalore.
----
* ActualPacifist: Deconstructed, as her stubborn insistence to absolute pacifism left Mandalore vulnerable on innumerable levels, which was exploited by Vizsla's Death Watch and Maul's criminal empire.
* ActionGirl: In her debut episode she ends up saving Obi-Wan's life. Later instances include disarming someone who held her hostage and had a blaster pushed to her temple, finding the evidence that saved Mandalore from being invaded by Republic troops, and investigating the cause of a mass food poisoning personally.
%%* [[AntiHero Anti-Heroine]]

* BackToBackBadasses: With Obi-Wan, while destroying the small assasin probes in "Voyage of Temptation.
%* [[BadassPrincess Badass Duchess]]
* BadassNormal: Has no Force powers.
* BadassPacifist: She's a Mandalorian pacificist. She may not be a [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Proud Warrior Race Girl]] like her ancestors, but she's still got the Mandalorian determination. She won't let others try to assassinate her either.
--->'''Satine:''' Just because I'm a pacifist doesn't mean I won't defend myself!
* BelligerentSexualTension: With Obi-Wan.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: In "Voyage of Temptation", when Merrick was distracted, Satine head-butted him and actually grabbed his blaster and aimed it at Merrick's head.
* [[ClassicalAntiHero Classical Anti-Heroine]]: Satine is a good, heroic person, but her [[FatalFlaw flaws]] cripple her ability to fulfill her dream of a peaceful Mandalore, ultimately bringing ruination to her world, her people, and herself.
* CosmicPlaything: The sheer level of suffering and pain levied against this woman is ''staggering''.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: According to Obi-Wan, most of Satine's people ([[AllThereInTheManual including her father]]) were killed in a civil war, and she spent a year on the run from Mandalorian insurgents and bounty hunters alongside Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon.
* DeadpanSnarker: Especially towards [[BelligerentSexualTension Obi-Wan]].

--> '''Obi-Wan:''' Your Highness is too kind.
--> '''Satine:''' You're right. I am.
* {{Deconstruction}}: Her character is essentially a deconstruction of pacifism and why it doesn't work in a galaxy at war, where everyone wants to exploit the weaker.
* DiedInYourArmsTonight: She passed away in Obi-Wan's arms.
* DyingDeclarationOfLove: With her last breath she reinforced her earlier confession to Obi-Wan.
* FamousLastWords: "Remember, my dear Obi-Wan... I've loved you always. [[TearJerker I always will]]..."
* FatalFlaw: Her devotion to pacifism and democracy. It leaves her helpless to defend against Darth Maul and Pre Vizsla's plot to topple her government and conquer Mandalore, which ultimately results in her own death.
* TheFettered: Deconstructed. Satine's dedication to her morals and beliefs prove to be a ''major'' liability in her conflicts with [[TheUnfettered the likes of]] Vizsla and Maul.
* GoodIsNotSoft: Satine is a pacifist, but she's far from a pushover.
%%* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Not always (she did fall in love with [[KnightInShiningArmor Obi-Wan]] [[NiceGuy Kenobi]], after all), but she was fooled by [[BloodKnight Vizsla]], [[TheMole Merrick]], and [[EvilChancellor Almec]], believing each of them to be loyal allies.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: By Darth Maul with the darksaber.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Satine can be quite self-righteous and defensive, although the latter is largely due to stress, and neither stops her from ultimately being a good person.
* MamaBear: Children getting hurt is large BerserkButton for her.
* NotSoStoic: She breaks down in tears during Obi-Wan's [[FakingTheDead fake funeral]].
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: When children got food-poisoning from toxic tea, bought by officals on the black market, she went into such a rage, she completely abondoned her pacifist views, and even '''threatened''' a suspect with physical violence if he didn't start talking.
* RedOniBlueOni: The blue to Bo-Katan's red.
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Not that her efforts do much good or succeed in the end.
* StarCrossedLovers: With Obi-Wan. He's a Jedi, sworn to protect the Republic and it's peace and to not form personal attachments. She's the duchess of a ruined planet which she tried to rebuild by turning her people's ProudWarriorRaceGuy culture into a pacifist society. In the end, theirs was a love that could not be, however much they might have cared for each other.
* SiblingYinYang: With Bo-Katan.
* ShootTheShaggyDog: After all her efforts, and all that she endured in her quest to free Mandalore of corruption and rededicate it to peace, Satine's story [[DownerEnding ends with her mission as a total failure, and with herself being murdered by Darth Maul for the sake of torturing the man she loves]].
* ShoutOut: To Satine from MoulinRouge, another romantic interest to a character played by EwanMcGregor.
* TragicDream: A Mandalore dedicated to peace, free of corruption and the scourges of war. Tragic, because nearly ''all'' of Satine's apparent advisors turned out to be secretly against her, and her every attempt to purge corruption from her government and defend Mandalore proved to be fleeting successes at best, resulting in Pre Vizsla (followed swiftly by Darth Maul) conquering the planet, leaving Satine in prison, and ultimately, Satine's death and Mandalore being consumed by a civil war.
* TragicHero: Her entire life's work is completely undone by Pre Vizsla and Darth Maul, and she is posthumously considered a traitor to her people.
* TraumaCongaLine: All of her speaking appearances involve Satine suffering in some way, but it's taken UpToEleven in "Shades of Reason": Darth Maul uses his criminal empire to destabilize Satine's government and turn her people against her, allowing Satine's enemy Pre Vizsla to take over with the public's support (by staging a magnificent defeat of Maul's forces, which had been planned in advance by Vizsla and Maul) and throwing Satine in prison for supposed "treason". Maul then murders Vizsla and uses Satine as a scapegoat, allowing him to rule Mandalore through a puppet Prime Minister (another enemy of Satine's, as well as a black marketeer responsible for poisoning numerous innocent children), all while Satine rots in prison, unable to do anything about it. It reaches its peak in "The Lawless", where she's murdered by Maul just to make Obi-Wan suffer.
* UnlimitedWardrobe: In almost every episode she appears in, she puts up a new dress.
* WeUsedToBeFriends: With Bo-Katan. Which makes sense, considering that they're sisters.
* TheWomanWearingTheQueenlyMask: Fits this trope to a T.
* WideEyedIdealist: Her New Mandalorian pacifistic utopia facade conceals a failed state where everyone is corrupt, a governor is secretly a terrorist leader, the Prime Minister plots a coup d'etat with his SecretPolice, food shortages are constant since the beginning of the war (from which Mandalore stays away), and generally she's the only one who really believes in her utopia, remaining oblivious until the trouble's knocking on her door.

[[folder: Pre Vizsla]]
!!Pre Vizsla
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pre_vizsla_sw_8483.png]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JonFavreau
->'''Appears in:''' ''WesternAnimation/TheCloneWars''
-->''"For generations, my ancestors fought proudly as warriors against the Jedi."''
Leader of the Death Watch, a Mandalorian terrorist group that seeks to overthrow Duchess Satine's peaceful government and return the Mandalorians to their warrior roots. Initially aligned with Count Dooku and the Separatists, Vizsla had a falling out with the Count, resulting in Dooku slashing into Vizsla's face with his lightsaber, disfiguring Vizsla and leading the Mandalorian to seek vengeance against Dooku, as well as maintaining his goal of reclaiming Mandalore.
----
* ArchEnemy: To Satine.
* AssholeVictim: He's a total jerk who was perfectly willing to put innocent lives at stake just so he could rule Mandalore. He also killed a girl and burnt down her village for no reason at all. Then he was killed by Maul.
* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: He's such a firm believer of this that he accepts his defeat at the hands of Maul graciously, simply stating that "only the strongest shall rule."
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: The leader of Death Watch and the most badass fighter of it.
* BadassCape: Complete with dramatic removal prior to dueling Obi-Wan.
* BadassInCharge: Of the Death Watch.
* BadassNormal: Holds his own against a Jedi Master, a dual-wielding Padawan, and finally a Sith Lord in a lightsaber fight without the benefit of Force powers (though this doesn't appear to be particularly unusual for Mandalorian warriors). His ability to leap roughly his own height while wearing full body armor and a jetpack is rather impressive as well.
* BaldOfEvil: Starts rockin' the skinhead look in season 4.
* BigBadDuumvirate: He and Darth Maul form one in "Eminence", although by the end of the episode, he's demoted to being TheStarscream, plotting to [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness betray Maul as soon as they've reclaimed Mandalore]]. In "Shades of Reason", [[spoiler: the whole affair [[OutGambitted ends]] [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown rather]] [[OffWithHisHead badly]] [[KilledOffForReal for him]] (although he takes it [[FaceDeathWithDignity quite well]]).
* BitchInSheepsClothing: In "The Mandalore Plot", he poses as a loyal advisor to Satine. After his duplicity is revealed, Vizsla never bothers with such a facade again.
* BlondGuysAreEvil: Something of a subversion, as virtually all Mandalorians to appear in the series are blond, with Vizsla being one of only a handful of antagonistic ones (that have visible heads/faces, at least).
* BloodKnight: The entire point of the Death Watch movement is to restore Mandalore's warrior culture, and Vizsla himself has shown a definite taste for battle, which Count Dooku derided as a weakness.
* BondVillainStupidity: Opting to imprison Maul and Savage rather than executing them immediately.
* CharacterDeath: Decapitated by Darth Maul in "Shades of Reason".
* CombatPragmatist: He may agree to a one-on-one duel, but don't think for a minute he'll fight fairly. Guns, bombs, flamethrowers, his jet pack; anything's fair game in his book.
* ConspicuousCG: Of a sort, given it's all CG anyway; compared to everything else, his darksaber looks very strange when activated and looks even more so when it's being waved around. But that's probably the point: to illustrate just how unusual the device is.
* DeathByIrony: He was determined to return his people to their warrior ways at any cost, only to ultimately die partaking in one of his people's old traditions.
* EvilSoundsDeep: Only with his helmet on, though.
* EvilVersusEvil: He and Dooku had a falling out that lead to Vizsla trying to locate and kill Dooku, and Dooku making Vizsla an example of ScarsAreForever.
** He plotted against Darth Maul, during their alliance, betraying him in "Shades of Reason", and dueling him later in the same episode, a fight that ends in Vizsla's demise.
* FaceDeathWithDignity: To his credit, he does acknowledge that he deserves to die since Maul has proven himself to be his superior.
* FatalFlaw: {{Pride}}. Vizsla's arrogance leads him to make some costly mistakes, such as attempting to engage a Jedi Master in a lightsaber duel (which Vizsla likely survived only because Obi-Wan didn't want to kill anyone in front of [[ActualPacifist Satine]]), and forging an alliance with Count Dooku. The trope name becomes literal in "Shades of Reason"; Vizsla's sense of warrior pride causes him to face Darth Maul, a superior warrior, in single combat, which results in Vizsla's own death.
* FauxAffablyEvil: He speaks politely enough, but it falls completely flat once he shows what he's really capable of.
* GoryDiscretionShot: Not surprisingly, we're not shown the image of his head being separated from his body, but the Director's Cut version of the episode does provide a shot of his headless corpse.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Double dose. Not only [[OffWithHisHead does he get decapitated by his own darksaber]], but it was by someone who's life he had previously saved and then entered an alliance with.
* GoodScarsEvilScars: Quite evil.
* HonorBeforeReason: See LetsFightLikeGentlemen below.
* {{Hypocrite}}: He claims to be a true Mandalorian, but in practice, he and his Death Watch aren't really much closer to the true Mandalorian ideal than Satine's pacifist regime is. For one thing, [[EvenEvilHasStandards Mandalorians are supposed to have standards]] and [[WouldntHurtAChild children are sacred to Mandalorians]]. Pre Vizsla ignores both of these things when he [[MoralEventHorizon murdered a teenage girl and casually destroyed an entire village]]. Also, to a Mandalorian, betraying someone you've entered an alliance with is considered disgraceful. Three guesses what Vizsla does to Maul and Savage.
* ImpossiblyCoolWeapon: Wields the Darksaber, a [[BlackSwordsAreBetter black-bladed]], [[LaserBlade lightsaber]] [[KatanasAreJustBetter katana]] looted from the Jedi Temple centuries ago by one of his [[AncestralWeapon ancestors]]. After besting Vizsla in a duel, Darth Maul takes the weapon for his own, using it to [[HoistByHisOwnPetard execute Vizsla]].
* IronicName: Vizslas are known for being gentle mannered, very loyal, and caring towards their owners and getting along with children greatly. This guy betrayed his monarch, is a terrorist, aims to be a dictator, and burns down villages for fun.
* JetPack: Which has a habit of getting damaged whenever he agrees to a duel.
* KnightTemplar: He views Death Watch's campaign to conquer Mandalore as a righteous cause, and believes that executing a Jedi (traditionally enemies to the Mandalorians) is "justice".
* LaserBlade: One of only two non-Force sensitives in the series to regularly use one.
* LetsFightLikeGentlemen: Gives Obi-Wan his lightsaber back so that they can fight more evenly.
** Averted when he just planned to execute Ahsoka on the spot after he captured her. She didn't have her lightsabers at the time, but he didn't even give her a fighting chance.
** Played with when Maul challenged him to fight one-on-one: due to the very traditions he believed in, he couldn't refuse the challenge.
* MistreatmentInducedBetrayal: Dooku dismissed Death Watch as useless after a failed attempt to deal with Duchess Satine. Vizsla even got a scar courtesy of Dooku (he doesn't explain exactly how he got it). Now he's dedicated to taking Dooku down.
* TheNapoleon: Is about the same height as Maul.
* OffWithHisHead: Just like Jango Fett before him.
* OutGambitted: By Darth Maul, who easily put him out of business when he was no longer needed.
* ProudWarriorRaceGuy: Essentially, his entire reason for being involved with the CIS at all is disgust with Mandalorian society having distanced itself from its martial heritage.
* SmugSnake: While a competent warrior, he's nowhere nearly badass enough in a universe full of Force-users, and when he enters an alliance with Darth Maul and Savage, he's clearly the least competent and creative of the trio.
* TheSocialDarwinist: He shows definite signs of this trope, burning down a village as a lesson to Lux not to "let the weak push you around", and calmly accepting his own death, claiming that only the strong prevail.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Although his name is pronounced as "Visla/Vizla" in the original dub, it's actually spelled "Vi'''zs'''la" as he was named after a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vizsla breed of Hungarian pointer hounds]].
* SuperWristGadget: Similarly to Cad Bane, his armor's wrist part contains at least a flamethrower, a grappling-cabel-launcher and some sort of shuriken-launcher.
* TheStarscream: To Darth Maul. He succeeds, briefly, but soon [[KilledOffForReal pays]] for his betrayal. A rare case where both halves of a BigBadDuumvirate qualify as TheStarscream.
* TookALevelInBadass: In season 2 and season 4, respectively, he held his own against Obi-Wan and Ahsoka in combat, but they both prevailed without too much trouble. In season 5, he has a protracted one-on-one battle with Darth Maul (who is, mind, at least Obi-Wan's equal) and came a lot closer to winning than he ever did against those two.
* TookALevelInJerkass: He's become ''[[AxCrazy much]]'' [[DisproportionateRetribution more]] [[MoralEventHorizon evil]] since season 2.
* TheUnfettered: He'll get in bed with ''anyone'' who can help him reclaim Mandalore. Unfortunately for Vizsla, he doesn't temper this dedication with discretion; his alliance with Darth Maul backfires spectacularly.
* VillainTeamUp: With Darth Maul and Savage Opress in Season 5, with Maul promising Vizsla that he and his brother can help the Death Watch reclaim Mandalore. Vizsla quickly gets pushed to the sidelines, betrays Maul after taking Mandalore, and is eventually killed by Maul for betraying him.
* VillainWithGoodPublicity: He manages to become this in "Shades of Reason". He and his Death Watch deal with a criminal uprising on Mandalore, which Maul has engineered to make them look like heroes. He retains this status posthumously, with Maul's puppet Almec claiming that Vizsla had been murdered by Satine, allowing Maul (through Almec) to rule Mandalore in Vizsla's memory.
* WalkingArmory: His arsenal includes a lightsaber, at least two blasters, several hand grenades, the SuperWristGadget and it's hidden weapons mentioned above, a jet pack, with rocket-launcher on the top of it, not to mention the armor itself.
* WrongGenreSavvy: He knew better than to fully trust Darth Maul, and planned on killing him once Maul's army had helped Death Watch reclaim Mandalore, but he didn't count on Maul counting on his betrayal.
* WouldHurtAChild[=/=]WouldHitAGirl: Stabbed one InTheBack and kicked Ahsoka hard enough to send her flying back several meters during their duel.
* YouHaveFailedMe: Shoots one of his own men for failing to kill Obi-Wan and Satine. He even says "failure" as he does it.

Pre Vizsla's [[TheDragon lieutenant]] in the Death Watch, and leader of a small commando force known as the Night Owls. She is also Duchess Satine's sister.
----
* AnimalMotifs: Owls.
* AntiVillain: Starts out as a straight villain, evolves into an AntiVillain in Season 5.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Pre Vizsla's [[TheDragon second-in-command]], and easily (at least) the second best fighter of Death Watch.
* BadassInCharge: Of the Night-Owls branch of the Death Watch.
* BadassNormal: She fought Ahsoka hand-to-hand, and initially had the upperhand. For the record, Ahsoka is skilled and strong enough to fight ''Trandoshans'' hand-to-hand.
* BloodKnight: A given for any Mandalorian warrior.
* BolivianArmyEnding: In the "Lawless" she's last seen engaged in a desperate shoot-out with the Mandalorians loyal to Maul.
* BullyingADragon: Belittling a Sith Lord when he's standing right next to you. [[NeckLift The end result is predictable.]]
* CainAndAbel: Implied with Satine, although by the time they share any screentime, they have a common enemy in Darth Maul.
* CoolHelmet: A variation on the Mandalorian standard; her's is modeled after a bird of prey.
%%* DarkActionGirl
* DarkAndTroubledPast: [[ImpliedTrope Implied]]. Obi-Wan stated in "Voyage of Temptation" that most of Satine's people were killed in a civil war. Since Bo-Katan is Satine's sister, it can be assumed that she went through much of the same ordeals. Given that she wound up with [[BloodKnight Death Watch]], Bo may have even had it ''worse'' than Satine.
%%* DeadpanSnarker
* DesignatedGirlFight: In her first appearance, she had to fight Ahsoka.
* TheDragon: She seems to be Pre Vizsla's top lietunant.
* DragonAscendant: After Maul kills Vizsla, Bo-Katan takes over command of the Death Watch soldiers who refuse to follow Maul.
* EnemyMine: With Obi-Wan Kenobi and Satine against the Mandalorian Death Watch loyal to Darth Maul. She even lampshades it with the classic "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" line.
** Lucasfilm's post-Season 6 spoiler dump shows that she and Ahsoka would have become associates under unknown circumstances.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Her sister Satine, who's death clearly saddened her.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Condemns [[spoiler:Maul and Savage]] as "monsters", and is clearly uncomfortable aligning with them.
* EvilRedhead: Before her face was even revealed on-screen, a [[AllThereInTheManual supplementary drawing]] by Dave Filoni had already revealed Bo-Katan to be a redhead. This makes her quite a rarity among the blond-haired Mandalorians.
* FieryRedhead: Even though she's usually calm, she's still rather aggressive due to being part of a Mandalorian splinter group.
%%* [[FormFittingWardrobe Form Fitting Armor]]
* GenreSavvy: She openly advises against allying with Darth Maul, mentioning from experience that Sith Lords can't be trusted. She's right on the money, but it doesn't do Vizsla any good.
* GunsAkimbo: While covering Obi-Wan's escape in "The Lawless".
* HelmetsAreHardlyHeroic: Until the "The Lawless", in which she joined the "good guys", she had never been shown fighting without her helmet on. In that episode she was never seen wearing it.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Condemns the Mandalorians who side with Maul as "traitors" when, in Mandalorian tradition, slaying the old boss [[ChallengingTheChief makes you the new boss]]. Technically, she and her Night Owls are the traitors. This is [[AllThereInTheManual addressed in the episode commentary]], which explains that Bo-Katan's loyalties are towards Pre Vizsla and Mandalore as a planet rather than the Mandalorian code of honor, which is why she kicks off the Mandalorian Civil War.
* JetPack: Standard issue for members Mandalorian warriors.
* MoralMyopia: She's not working against Darth Maul and Savage out of the goodness of her heart. She's only opposing them because Maul killed Pre Vizsla, who she has UndyingLoyalty to.
* [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Proud Warrior Race Girl]]: She's a Mandalorian warrior. It's part of the package.
* PsychoticSmirk: A couple times in "Eminence" and once in "Shades Of Reason".
* RedOniBlueOni: The red to Satine's blue, since it was revealed that she was Satine's sister. It also helps since she has [[FieryRedhead red hair]].
* SiblingYinYang: With Satine.
%%* SignificantGreenEyedRedhead
* UndyingLoyalty: To Vizsla; when he's killed, she's visibly horrified and refuses to serve his killer even though he earned the title of Mandalore fair and square.

----
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Yet another "ally" of Satine's who was working against her. The woman either had terrible luck with friends, or was a HorribleJudgeOfCharacter.

* CharacterDeath: He is killed by Anakin.
** ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: By Anakin's lightsaber.
** InTheBack: He didn't know Anakin was behind him, leaving himself open to be stabbed.
* DeadpanSnarker: Fond of a little villainous snarking. Especially evident when pointing out to Kenobi that he'd be seen as a hero by everyone if he simply killed him, as he's done to many others in battle, and saved the people on the ship. ''Except'' by the woman he loves that is.

* {{Jerkass}}: He cruelly mocked Obi-Wan and Satine's feelings for each other.

* SadisticChoice: He presents one to Obi-Wan and Satine: either kill him, which would either ruin Obi-Wan's standing with Satine, or prove Satine a {{Hypocrite}} (depending on who did the deed) or let him go and allow him to blow up the ship. Fortunately, Anakin [[TakeAThirdOption intervened]].
* SmugSnake: He was extremely confident that neither Obi-Wan nor Satine would kill him. Lampshaded by Satine when he mocks her and Obi-Wan's feelings for each other.
-->'''Satine:''' You have the romantic soul of a slug, Merrik! (stomps Merrik in the foot with her high-heel) And slugs are so often trod upon!
* StrikeMeDownWithAllOfYourHatred: He's quite happy to goad either Satine or Kenobi into killing him and proving themselves hypocrites, though he's fairly certain they won't. But then Anakin kills him without so much as a second thought due to [[PragmaticHero pragmatism]].
-->'''Anakin:''' "[[DefensiveWhat What]]? He was gonna blow up the ship."
* TemptingFate: Moments before his death he taunts Obi-Wan and Satine because they won't kill him over principle.
-->'''Merrick:''' "[[FamousLastWords Who'll strike first, and brand themselves a cold-blooded killer]]?"
-->*''[[DynamicEntry Cue]] [[{{Foreshadowing}} Anakin]] [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice skewering Merrick]] [[BadGuysDoTheDirtyWork with his lightsaber]].''*
* YouMonster: He receives this reaction from Satine after he murders the ''Coronet'''s bridge crew, especially the captain, who begged for his life.
-->'''Satine:''' Monster! You're a horrid monster!
-->'''Merrik:''' [[InsultBackfire Get used to it.]]

->'''Voiced by:''' Whit Hartford
->'''Appears in:''' ''WesternAnimation/TheCloneWars''
Nephew of Satine and Bo-Katan, Korkie is a Cadet at the Mandalorian Royal Academy of Government.
----
* TheGhost: Not Korkie himself, but his parents. Satine is explicitly referred to as Korkie's aunt, Bo-Katan appears to be too young to be his mother, and the fact that he shares his last name with Satine indicates that he is related to her through an unseen brother. However, neither of Korkie's parents have appeared, or even been mentioned in the series.

* [[SnoopingLittleKid Snooping Teen]]: In "The Academy", he and his class-mates investigated the artificially bloated food shortages on Mandalore, and with the help of Ahsoka, exposed Almec as the head of the whole incident.
* TookALevelInBadass: In "The Academy", he was just a kid in over his head in trying to investigate corruption. In "The Lawless", however, he's [[spoiler:breaking his aunt out of prison and gunning down Death Watch commandos.]]
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: In "The Lawless", he was knocked out by a Death Watch commando during an attempt to break Satine out of prison. While later in the episode Almec claimed that Satine's accomplices had all escaped, this is highly unlikely in Korkie's case since was right beside Satine when he was attacked. Nothing further is known about him.
