History DarthWiki / GalaxyFalling

** Also the Vizslas. Though to be fair, this trope would likely apply to every Mandalorian clan.

* MildlyMilitary: The Eternal Alliance definitely falls into this. While part of it stems from the [[EnemyMine diverse nature]] of the coalition, the Alliance army seems to lack any standard uniform or formal protocol beyond simply obeying orders. The Alliance's operation style seems to be a mix of Republic, Imperial, Zakuulan, and Mandalorian. And considering that the Alliance Commander herself falls into the [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy latter]]...

** On a more personal level, [[spoiler:Dree, Tsara, and Briseile form one with Aureina and Myn]] during ''Echoes of Oblivion''. Despite actively fighting each other, all of them want nothing more than to see Tenebrae defeated once and for all. [[spoiler:Though the EnemyMine is mitigated someone for Briseile and Aureina given their FriendlyEnemy status, it's very much present for Dree, Tsara, and Myn.]]
* EveryoneWentToSchoolTogether: Revan, Jasper, and Malak were students together on Dantooine. Later, Malak attempted to recruit a young Bastila to their cause, but Bastila refused.
* FamilyEyeResemblance: Apparently piercing silver eyes run in the Vizsla family. Dree, Aruso, and their mother Alyss Vizsla all have them, and [[spoiler:two of Dree's three children]] also manage to inherit them despite not technically being part of Clan Vizsla.
* FantasticallyChallengingPatient: When Briseile gets stabbed in ''Knights of the Fallen Empire'', no one is able to do much for her beyond giving her kolto (which is universally applicable), because the ''Gravestone'' crew at that point are all humans who lack knowledge of Twi'lek anatomy. Though it's clear that the wound would have been fatal no matter what they did, if not for Valkorion's influence.

''Impervious'' tells the story of two fallen Jedi, Farren Vespa and Jasper Aberdeen, as they reconnect, try to save the galaxy, and redeem themselves along the way.

* AerithAndBob: True to Franchise/StarWars tradition. Ordinary names like Jasper and Veronika, and real-but-uncommon names like Farren, stack up against more fantastical names.

* AmazonChaser: True to [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Mandalorian]] tradition, both Aruso and Torian fall into this category for their respective love interests, Veronika and Dree. Torian in particular notes that his initial feelings for Dree really kicked into high gear when [[LoveAtFirstPunch she judo-flipped him over her shoulder.]]

* BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind:
** When Valkorion attempts to hijack Briseile's body at the end of ''Eternal Throne'', she's forced to undergo one of these. Senya and Arcann, as well as the spirit of Vaylin, end up assisting her in the confrontation.
** In ''Echoes of Oblivion'', pretty much every major Force-user participates in a massive battle against the Sith Emperor in Satele Shan's ravaged mindscape.

* BringHelpBack: Jasper attempts this after [[spoiler:escaping Darth Vitiate,]] informing both his allies and the Jedi of the Sith Empire's existence. [[spoiler:Although his and Revan's TrueCompanions are fully on board with confronting the Sith, the Jedi refuse to act, making Jasper's mission a failure.]]
* BroughtDownToBadass: During their visit to Nathema in ''Knights of the Eternal Throne,'' Briseile, Lana, and Vaylin temporarily lose access to the Force, preventing them from using most of their abilities. However, their expert dueling skills are still very much intact. Although, it's clear that losing access to the Force is highly detrimental to their mental states...
* BuffySpeak: Pops up from time to time. Characters like Kay and Dree seem particularly prone to this mode of speech.
-->'''Dree:''' So this is ''another'' [[YourMindMakesItReal it's-all-a-dream-but-not-really]] thing? Sounds like a bad idea.
* ComplainingAboutRescuesTheyDontLike:
** Bastila's first move upon being sprung by Revan and Carth is to criticize their rescue plan and insist that she rescued herself. Though it's worth noting that she might have simply been reacting to Revan's reappearance specifically.
* CryonicsFailure: {{Downplayed}}. The Eternal Empire's carbonite freezing process is imperfect, and poisons Dree as a result. While she survives the ordeal thanks to Lana's timely intervention, she takes several weeks to make a full recovery, and it's clear she would have died without immediate medical attention even if someone else had freed her.
* DecompositeCharacter:
** In ''Shadow of Revan'', the canon "Revan Reborn" is split figuratively rather than [[LiteralSplitPersonality literally]]. The narrative role of Revan's dark half is adapted to Maxir Grenko, the leader of the Revanites. Revan herself takes on a similar role to her fully light counterpart, no SuddenSequelHeelSyndrome required.
** Briseile and Dree act as this from ''Fallen Empire'' onward, splitting the role of protagonist. Unlike in canon, the "Outlander" and the "Commander" are treated as separate characters, Briseile and Dree respectively. This neatly allows Briseile to focus on the more fantastic aspects of the story, while BadassNormal Dree focuses on operating the Alliance itself.

* DumpThemAll: Downplayed in the case of the [[spoiler:Briseile-Lana-Koth]] LoveTriangle. [[spoiler:Koth's feelings for Lana turn out to be entirely unrequited, while Briseile and Lana mutually decide that they're BetterAsFriends, leaving Lana single.]]
* EarlyBirdCameo: [[spoiler:Scourge has a vision of Myn Solusar killing Darth Vitiate, despite the fact that she won't be born for over three hundred years.]]

* ImprobableAge: All over the place in the ''Old Republic'' era storylines. During their class stories, the majority of the protagonists are fairly young despite their immense accomplishments. For example, Aureina becomes a Jedi Master and receives a seat on the Council at only twenty-four (becoming the youngest Jedi to do either of those things until Anakin Skywalker), and Dree becomes Grand Champion at barely nineteen. This is gradually averted as time passes, however, since the story arc takes place over nearly two decades.

** {{Deconstructed}} with [[spoiler:Arcann]] following the ''Eternal Throne'' arc. While [[spoiler:Arcann]] himself agrees with Dree that he can never make up for his past atrocities [[TheAtoner (though certainly not for lack of trying)]], he ultimately gets off scot-free thanks to his service with the Alliance. That, combined with his blossoming relationship with [[spoiler:Briseile]] ends up alienating a lot of potential allies to the Alliance as a whole, even driving some Zakuulans to work against them where they otherwise wouldn't. The fact that he doesn't even receive any legal punishment is particularly egregious, as pointed out by Dree in-universe.
-->'''Dree:''' ''(coldly)'' If you think I'm the only one who wants justice, you're sorely mistaken.

!!Jedi Knight Farren Vespa / Darth Revan
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/0_0_2.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:The Prodigal Knight.]]
\\

->''"I'll spend the rest of my life working to set the galaxy right."''
\\

A former Jedi Knight named who fell to the dark side, before having her memory rewritten. Now under the identity of a Republic privateer named Farren Vespa, Revan must decide whether to reclaim or reject her complicated past.
----

* TheAce: It's quickly noted that Farren has an unusual set of skills, and is able to somehow master the Jedi arts in a matter of ''weeks''. {{Justified}}, [[AmnesiacResonance since she was merely relearning past skills.]]
* ActionGirl: Not only is she a powerful Jedi and Force-user, Revan is also highly skilled in hand-to-hand combat and martial arts.
* AdaptationalHeroism: Not at first, but this trope is in full play during the ''Old Republic'' era. While canonically, SWTOR-era Revan was a genocidal maniac suffering from a serious case of UnwittingPawn and IdiotBall, this version of the character does not participate in any such schemes, and in fact [[spoiler:actively works to shut down the Revanites from beyond the grave.]]
* AloofDarkHairedGirl: As Darth Revan; less so in her identity as Farren Vespa, though she's still quite cold to her enemies.
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Revan was this to Malak. Even during their time with the Jedi, Malak was noted to follow Revan around like a lost puppy. After taking over the Sith armada, Malak is repeatedly shown to be an InadequateInheritor compared to Revan.
* AmnesiacDissonance: Experiences this thanks to her brainwashing at the hands of the Jedi Council. [[spoiler:Farren eventually decides to reconcile her two identities, acknowledging her past as Darth Revan so that she can learn from her mistakes, while resolving not to become that in the future.]]
* AmnesiacHero: She's TheHero of this particular storyline, and her amnesia serves as a major plot point.
* AntiVillain: As Darth Revan. She was just a Jedi who wanted to fight off an unstoppable invading Force against the wishes of an overly cautious Jedi Council and did so with success before giving in to the temptation of power.
* TheAtoner: After learning of her past as Darth Revan, this becomes Farren's primary motivation.
* BelligerentSexualTension: Has this in spades with Carth, though it calms down a bit once they learn to trust each other.
* BigSisterInstinct: After their reunion, Revan demonstrates this attitude towards Jasper. She leaps to his defense on more than one occasion.
* BoyishShortHair: She sported this look during the Mandalorian War, though she's grown it out by the start of the main series.
* BrainwashingForTheGreaterGood: On the receiving end of this. Though the "greater good" part of this trope is questioned on more than one occasion, this ''is'' how the Jedi Council saw it.
* BrainyBrunette: She's dark-haired and highly intelligent.
* BroughtDownToBadass: Early in the first installment, Revan/Farren has no access to her knowledge of the Force, but it doesn't stop her from tearing through her enemies with regular vibro-blades.
* BrutalHonesty: Revan was never one to mince her words.
* TheChessmaster: Revan was a brilliant military strategist, and it showed on the battlefield. During the Jedi Civil War, she even made plans to defeat the Republic while keeping its infrastructure intact. Even under her identity as Farren, she's quite calculating and analytical, albeit to a lesser extent.
* ColdBloodedTorture: Subjected to a serious case of this while aboard the ''Leviathan''. At one point, she even passes out from the pain. However, Revan herself is mentioned to be well-versed in interrogation tactics.
* ComedicSociopathy: Even as a Dark Sider, Revan enjoyed dipping into this brand of humor. She programed [[KillerRobot HK-47]], after all.
* CunningLinguist: She understands dozens of languages, and mentions drawing on the Force to understand others.
* DarkActionGirl: During her time as a Sith Lord.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Under her alternate identity as an amnesiac smuggler, Revan/Farren continues to favor a black-and-gray aesthetic. Even as a Jedi, she continues to wear dark outfits.
* DeadpanSnarker: Farren isn't above throwing a zinger or two out at someone else's expense.
* DiesDifferentlyInTheAdaptation: Instead of [[spoiler:spending three hundred years in stasis and going mad before dying, Revan performs a HeroicSacrifice to slow down the Sith Emperor's advance.]]
* EnergyDonation: During their confrontation with Darth Vitiate, Revan donates her energy to [[PowerOfTheVoid Jasper]], allowing him to draw from her strength completely. [[spoiler:It kills her.]]
* TheGadfly: Both pre and post-brainwashing, Revan took gleeful pleasure in trolling her allies.
* GoodIsNotDumb: After her HeelFaceTurn, Revan graduates into this. She learns to combine her intellect with a more resolute moral compass. That being said...
* GoodIsNotSoft: Even after redeeming herself, Revan still remains somewhat pragmatic, though much more reigned in compared to her time as a Sith.
* FallenHero: She was considered the greatest Jedi of her time before falling to the DarkSide. Though since she remained more of a PragmaticVillain instead of getting DrunkOnTheDarkSide, Kreia argues that Revan didn't fall; she ''jumped''.
* FightsLikeANormal: Prior to being informed of her Force-sensitivity, an amnesiac Farren fought this way, relying on vibro-blades and blasters to get out of a skirmish.
* TheGadfly: She seems to revel in trolling first Malak, and then Bastila.
* GeniusBruiser: A highly intelligent and capable strategist who could still kick plenty of ass on the front lines.
* HeelFaceBrainwashing: It took a memory wipe for her to make a HeelFaceTurn. While Farren/Revan herself does angrily question the morality of this trope on more than one occasion, it ultimately sticks. [[spoiler:Even after reclaiming her past as Darth Revan, Farren resolves not to become that person in the future.]]
* [[HeroicBSoD Heroic BSoD]]: Farren suffers one upon learning of her past identity as Darth Revan. She's left in a state of total shock, and spends the next several scenes isolating herself out of both fear and self-loathing.
* [[HeroicRRoD Heroic RRod]]: When confronting Vitiate, Revan lends Jasper all of her strength as he attempts to take down the Sith Emperor by feeding off him with his [[PowerOfTheVoid abilities]]. [[spoiler:While they succeed in nearly killing Vitiate and delaying his plans, the strain ultimately kills her.]]
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:She sacrifices her own life to slow down the advance of the Sith Emperor and weaken him.]] Centuries later, Scourge notes that if not for Revan's actions, Myn Solusar could never have faced Darth Vitiate.
* LikeADaughterToMe: She expresses this sentiment toward the teenaged Mission Vao.
* LoveableRogue: Farren's reconstructed personality was one, though Revan herself doesn't really fall under this trope.
* MagneticHero: Arguably one of her greatest strengths. Revan was well known among the Jedi for her charisma and ability to draw others to whatever cause she happens to be fighting at the moment.
* MeaningfulName: The name of her false identity, Farren, means "Wanderer." A fitting name for a woman unaware of her true place in the galaxy.
* MilitaryMage: She was fighting on the front lines of the Mandalorian War alongside common soldiers.
* MistakenAge: Thanks to her amnesia, Farren is initially unaware of her actual age, and estimates herself to be in the range of early thirties. She's actually 38.
* MistakenForRomance: Most people believe the rumors that Revan and Malak were once lovers, to the point that an amnesiac Farren is genuinely uncertain about what actually happened between them, if anything, and [[BrainBleach really doesn't want to think about it]]. However, there's no indication that their relationship was anything other than platonic.
* NamedByTheAdaptation: Sort of. She retains her main canon name of Revan, but receives a definitive alias during her time as an amnesiac.
* NotSoAboveItAll: Even in her most ruthless identity as Darth Revan, she reprogrammed HK-47 to call organics "meatbags" just because she found it hilarious and liked to annoy Malak.
* TheParagonAlwaysRebels: An idealistic Revan turned against the Jedi Order due to their inaction against the Mandalorians, taking many other young Jedi with her. Her initial motivation was heroic, but the war took a heavy toll.
* PlatonicLifePartners: With Jasper and [[WeUsedToBeFriends (formerly)]] Malak.
* PragmaticVillainy: As Darth Revan. By Sith standards, Revan was remarkably pragmatic for a dark sider, left conquered planets' infrastructure intact and defied YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness. And she claims to have joined the Dark Side to prepare the Republic against the True Sith, leaning Revan into WellIntentionedExtremist territory. However, it is implied that the Dark Side was weighing on Revan, as some of her actions are noticeably more cruel or evil than others (such as slicing off Malak's jaw). Jolee even notes that unlike Malak, Revan was very careful about whom to attack and how.
* ProdigalHero: She's referred to in-universe as "The Prodigal Knight".
* PurpleIsPowerful: Revan wields a purple lightsaber, and her Force lightning manifests in the same color, representing her immense strength and power.
* OlderThanTheyLook: LampshadedTrope. An amnesiac Farren is assumed to be in her early thirties based on her appearance, but she's pushing 40 by the time of the series.
* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: Revan's original motivation for turning against the Jedi Council. This isn't in play by the time she becomes a Sith, however.
* SheWhoFightsMonsters: During the Jedi Civil War, Revan grew nearly as ruthless as the Sith she was so intent on destroying, outright becoming one in the process.
* SpiritualAdvisor: In ''The Collison of Stars''. She appears to Satele, Myn, Briseile, and even Theron and Dree to give advice, occasionally participating in the conflict when called for.
* StopWorshippingMe: This is her reaction to the Revanite cult, and she angrily berates its leader, Maxir Grenko, over their misguided worship. He doesn't listen and continues committing atrocities in Revan's name, much to her chagrin.
* ThatWomanIsDead: Farren declares as much regarding her past identity as Darth Revan. [[spoiler:Later {{subverted}} when she realizes that she can't grow past her mistakes without first understanding them on a personal level, leading to her reclaiming a reforged identity of Revan.]]
* TookALevelInCynic: It's generally agreed that the brutality of the Mandalorian War eroded Revan's idealism, turning her into a much more pragmatic woman willing to make questionable sacrifices in the name of the greater good.
* {{Troll}}: She's guilty of this from time to time, such as when she programmed her assassin droid to call everyone "meatbags" purely for shits and giggles.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Revan's fundamental character trait. Even after her HeelFaceTurn, one could make the reasonable argument that Revan is still a dangerous extremist, but the brainwashing simply channeled that part of her personality towards more benevolent goals.

[[folder:Jasper Aberdeen]]
!!Jedi Knight Jasper Aberdeen / The Exile
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/grid_0_52.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:The Exile]]
\\

->''"I take full responsibility for my actions. In fact, I was the ''only'' one of us who did."''
\\

A Jedi General who served under Darth Revan during the Mandalorian War, before being cast out of the Jedi Order.
----

* AllLovingHero: His backstory is a {{deconstruction}}, showing what can happen when someone tries to encompass too much in their goal to help. This was the root of his Force bonding talent, which allowed Jasper to share his comrades' pain and influence them with his own worldview. The Battle of Malachor V, however, {{deconstructed}} this wish: forced to feel in an instant the demise of so many people he had fought alongside and bonded with, Jasper was overwhelmed by the sheer scale of the death he was experiencing and instinctively severed his Force ties in order to survive, which didn't avoid the opening of a Force wound within himself where his bonds to his friends had been.
* AntiAntiChrist: Turns out to be the worst nightmare of the Jedi Council due to the nature of his Force abilities, but ends up proving them wrong and saving the galaxy instead.
* BadPowersGoodPeople: Jasper's Force bonding is compared to a vampire feeding on the Force of others, not to mention that being able to cut oneself off from a supposedly omnibenevolent entity like the Force sounds rather nasty as well. However, he still uses his powers for good.
* BecameTheirOwnAntithesis: Jasper was a Force Empath with an immense talent for creating Force bonds, but he ends up severed from the Force altogether during the Battle of Malachor V. He goes from connected to everything, from connected to ''nothing.''
* BrokenAce: Aside from being an ardent Jedi with a lot of useful skills, including technology and lightsaber combat, Jasper was endowed with amazing, even unique Force powers, which included an enormous sensitivity, a talent for forming bonds, and the ability to survive while severed from the Force. However, all of this only served to maximize his trauma during the Mandalorian Wars and afterwards, to the extent of becoming a possible threat for the Force itself due to his own actions on Malachor.
* BroughtDownToBadass: Lost his own ties to the Force, yet is capable of surviving, fighting and learning without it, even if Jasper is still an indirect Force user thanks to his bonds.
* ChasteHero: Having been raised a WarriorMonk, Jasper is almost completely clueless about romance and relationships. He's not necessarily disinterested in the thought of romance [[spoiler:as shown through his relationship with Bastila]] but is simply too awkward and emotionally burdened to really act on it. That being said...
* CharmPerson: Upon becoming a wound in the Force, Jasper develops a symbiotic relationship with the Force users around him. This allows him to gradually influence their alignments without conscious thought or effort on his part.
* ChickMagnet: He captures the romantic attention of [[VillainousCrush Atris]], [[BettyAndVeronica Brianna, Visas]], and [[spoiler:Bastila.]] Though he does have some ShipTease with Brianna, Jasper only really expresses interest in the latter.
* CursedWithAwesome: The trauma of Malachor V turned Jasper's Force bond talent into a Force ''wound'', which under the right conditions might be a threat to all the Force. However, the same wound increases his powers through fighting and killing, and it gives him an improbable victory against the otherwise invincible Darth Nihilus.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: He committed a war crime to end the Mandalorian Wars at Malachor V, which killed almost everyone on both sides of the battle.
* DefectorFromDecadence: Jasper considered the Jedi Council to having submitted to complacency and capitulation instead of daring to fight to help people, instead joining Revan and Malak when they offered an alternative.
* DefiantToTheEnd: Frequently mentioned as being one of Jasper's more notable character traits. When the Jedi Council ordered him to relinquish his lightsaber, his response was to bury the blade into the center stone of the Council Chamber before storming out.
* DespairEventHorizon: What drove Jasper to unconsciously repudiate the Force, in this case caused by sensing the death of Malachor V - and even worse, being entirely by his own actions.
* {{Determinator}}: Turned into a superpower, as before Jasper it was believed no lifeform could survive without the Force, yet he does. And this is only the iceberg's tip.
* DisabilityImmunity: As a walking Force wound, Nihilus' ability to drain the Force from people doesn't affect him.
* DoomMagnet: As far as the Council is concerned. Whether they're correct or not, wherever Jasper goes you can expect to find a trail of destruction in his wake.
* ExperiencedProtagonist: Like Revan, he's a highly skilled Jedi and served as a General in the Mandalorian Wars. Unlike Revan, he actually retains most of his skills at the start of his story arc.
* HumanoidAbomination: It's not obvious from looking at him, but he's actually a walking wound in the Force!
* HypercompetentSidekick: To Revan during the Mandalorian Wars. Later averted in subsequent storylines, when he becomes a protagonist in his own right.
* LikeASonToMe: On the receiving end of this trope from Kreia. A particularly disturbing example, considering that Kreia spends their entire relationship grooming him to be a ManipulativeBastard like herself, and she clearly favors him over her biological daughter Brianna.
* MagneticHero: {{Deconstructed}}. It's a direct result of his subconscious Force-bonding abilities.
* MilitaryMage: He was a General during the Mandalorian Wars.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone:
** Giving the order to activate a planet-crushing superweapon on Malachor V, killing almost everyone present, both Republic and Mandalorian. Not only does Jasper suffer physically and psychologically in the moment (severing his connection to the Force to protect himself from the pain), he continues to regret this choice almost ten years later.
** Technically, he killed [[spoiler:Revan]] by feeding off of her Force abilities too much. While she was the one who made the decision and it was clearly necessary, it still horrifies him all the same.
* OlderAndWiser: By the time his storyline kicks off, Jasper is roughly forty. He expresses regret at his more naive and immature thinking as a young man going off to war.
* PowerOfTheVoid: Jasper is a "wound" in the Force, meaning Forcewise he is a literal negative-space, almost a black hole. Without even being aware of it, he draws energy from others around him symbiotically. [[spoiler:This power is what ultimately allows him to defeat not only Nihilus, but the Sith Emperor, and ''walk away.'']]
* PowerParasite: An unintentional example. Jasper eventually learns he never regained his connection to the Force, but instead had been unknowingly drawing his power from Force-Sensitive individuals around him. During their reunion, Revan (a highly trained and experienced Force user in her own right) even notes in her narration that she can feel herself being drawn to him like a black hole.
* ReformedButRejected: A Subversion. Unlike Revan and Malak, Jasper willingly surrendered himself to the Jedi Council before turning to the Dark Side, but Atris strongly rejected this claim and dismissed him as a dark Jedi. He was the least in need of reforming compared to his partners, but carried the weight of their rejection all the same.
* ShellShockedVeteran: Why he lost his connection to the Force in the first place, as a direct result of his trauma.
* SparedByTheAdaptation: [[spoiler:Unlike in canon, he survives the attack on Darth Vitiate. While he does die, it's of natural causes.]]
* ToBeLawfulOrGood: He defied the Jedi Council out of sympathy for the civilians getting butchered in the Mandalorian Wars.
* TokenGoodTeammate: Out of Revan's former posse, Jasper was the only one who resisted the Dark Side and willingly returned to face trial.
* VampiricDraining: Jasper's powers function this way, drawing on the abilities of others around him in order to access the Force.

!!Protagonists in ''The Collision of Stars'':
[[folder:Dree Vizsla]]
!!Eternal Alliance Commander Dree Vizsla
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/0_2_8.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:Grand Champion of the Great Hunt.]]
\\

->''"Pressure makes gems. Ease makes decay."''
\\

A Mandalorian born in 3661 BBY, Dree Vizsla was raised to fight. After the death of her parents, she set out at the tender age of fifteen to become a BountyHunter. She remained in relative obscurity for three years, until she rose to fame by winning the Great Hunt with the help of some unexpected allies.

Years later, Dree would find herself mired in trouble as her actions attracted the attention of the Eternal Empire, resulting in her capture for no less than five years.
----

* [[TwentyFourHourArmor 24-Hour Armor]]: She spends almost all of her time in armor. [[spoiler:Which is one reason she's so shaken when she loses it during her imprisonment in the ''Fallen Empire'' arc. She later gets a new set.]]
* AccuserOfTheBrethren: Towards [[TheAtoner Arcann]]. Despite multiple Force users vouching for Arcann's intentions, Dree initially distrusts his motives for joining the Alliance, only allowing him to do so because she needed his power and insight to fight Vaylin. This trope becomes {{Downplayed}} following ''Knights of the Eternal Throne''; Dree accepts Arcann's redemption as legitimate and acts more cordial toward him, but never truly forgives his crimes.
* ActionGirl: Just look at her. Seriously.
* ActionMom: Her son Aran is born during the ''Shadow of Revan'' arc, but she still continues to kick all kinds of ass.
* AlwaysSaveTheBoy: On no less than ''three'' occasions, Dree jeopardizes herself, her allies, and/or her mission just to save Torian. This becomes particularly egregious during the Ruhnuk arc since he's backed up by two other skilled Mandalorians at that point.
* AmazonChaser: Frequently on the receiving end of this trope thanks to being a [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Mandalorian]] ActionGirl; Mandalorian men find ass-kicking a desirable trait in women.
* AmbiguouslyRelated: To Shae Vizla. It's unclear what the relationship between Clan Vizla and Clan Vizsla actually is. Dree states that the specifics are lost to history, but it's generally assumed that there's some ancestral link between the two families.
* AntiHero: After graduating from PunchClockVillain status, she grows into this trope. While still willing to do morally questionable things from time to time, Dree's cause during and after the ''Fallen Empire'' arc is a righteous one.
* AtLeastIAdmitIt: Why she's so disgusted with Janarus and Jun Seros during her class storyline. For all of her faults, Dree is an honest person and never hid her wrongdoings. So when she's falsely accused of countless crimes by a HolierThanThou {{Hypocrite}}, she's furious.
* BadassInDistress: Upon getting captured by Arcann for five years. Briseile and Lana end up bailing her out; it's made clear that she would have died of carbonite poisoning without their intervention.
* BadassNormal: Dree gets by with raw skill and an arsenal that would make Iron Man blush.
* BloodKnight: Dree viscerally describes getting a "rush" from fighting, and enjoys combat.
* BountyHunter: Until the ''Fallen Empire'' arc, where Dree assumes command of the Alliance. After that, she functions more as a traditional soldier.
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: Dree is a tough fighter who can handle herself in a fistfight, and she can be quite abrasive in personality. However, she does have a warmer side that she shows only to her friends and loved ones.
* CaptainCrash: Despite claiming to be a good pilot, Dree has a bad tendency to crash ships that aren't her own. Lana cheekily references this when pointing out that the Alliance's small aircraft budget always seems to run out whenever Dree takes point on a mission...
* TheChainsOfCommanding: When Dree steps into the role of Eternal Alliance Commander, the reality of being responsible for so many lives quickly wears down on her. As if that weren't enough, Dree also finds herself feeling restricted and tied down by the responsibilities of her position, and though she always fulfills them, she secretly longs to be free.
* ChildSoldier: Not currently, but Dree mentions fighting Republic mercenaries when she was thirteen. When Briseile questions this, she claims that this was normal by [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Mandalorian standards.]]
* ClosestThingWeGot: Why Lana and Briseile sought to rescue her in the ''Fallen Empire'' arc. Dree had no formal military experience, but her popularity, charisma, and natural skill made her the best fit for opposing the Eternal Empire.
* ColdGrayEyes: The narrative frequently takes notice of Dree's piercing gray eyes, which are either deeply intimidating or beautiful depending on the context. Also falls under FamilyEyeResemblance since she shares them with multiple relatives.
* ColorMotif: Red, both in and out of universe. In-universe, red is the color Mandalorians use to honor their parent; in Dree's case, her late father. Out of universe, it symbolizes her intense and passionate personality.
* CommandingCoolness: She's ''Commander'' of the Eternal Alliance.
* CommonalityConnection:
** She has one with Senya during ''Fallen Empire'' and ''Eternal Throne''. While the two are very different overall, they're able to bond over [[spoiler:being irrevocably separated from their sons because of the war.]] In fact, Dree's lingering sympathy for Senya [[spoiler:as a mother]] is the main reason she reluctantly decides to [[spoiler:give up her [[ItsPersonal revenge quest]] on Arcann, [[SparedButNotForgiven even if she doesn't exactly forgive him.]]]]
** Also with Shae. While Dree met Shae prior to ''Fallen Empire'' and even fought alongside her against the Revanites, the two only become actual friends because of their similarities much later on. Both were female Mandalorian [[BountyHunter Bounty Hunters]] who made a name for themselves fighting on behalf of the Sith Empire. Both were thrust into a leadership position they didn't want and were never prepared to handle. And both now struggle with TheChainsOfCommanding and secretly long to go back to their old, carefree lifestyles.
* ConsummateProfessional: This is Dree's attitude toward her work. While she enjoys a good fight and prefers to follow through on professional obligations, she has no taste for needless bloodshed and won't kill anyone unnecessarily.
* TheCreon:
** Dree has absolutely no interest in political power or authority, as shown when she refuses to even consider claiming the Eternal Throne for herself despite being well-positioned to do so. Even convincing her to accept the military title of Commander was a challenge.
** This also extends to her place in the Mandalorian power structure. Despite being the only surviving child of Clan Vizsla's Chieftan, Dree refuses to be made Alyss's successor and even recommends that her nephew Corentin be trained in her stead. This is mostly because of her commitment to the Alliance; Dree refuses to take a position of authority among her people so long as her attention is split. She also has no interest in becoming Mand'alor despite being one of the few people to beat Shae Vizla in single combat.
* CunningLinguist: She's fluent in both Basic and Mando'a, and understands Huttese.
* DeadpanSnarker: Dree's a smartass, and she's not particularly subtle about it.
* DefiantCaptive: Despite being injured and concussed, Dree remains extremely defiant when she's captured by the Eternal Empire. [[DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu She even tells the Immortal Emperor to go fuck himself.]] Sadly it doesn't do her much good, but points for effort.
* DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife: [[YoungGun In her youth]], Dree was a two-bit hired gun who wandered from job to job in a stubborn effort to prove herself. She eventually finds purpose - not just in her work, but in the people she cares about. And much later on, in saving the galaxy.
* {{Determinator}}: It's surprising how many people fail to realize that when a professional BountyHunter threatens to hound them across the entire Galaxy, it's not mere hyperbole on her part! She really is that tenacious and persistent when it comes to getting her targets.
* DetrimentalDetermination: Though Dree's {{Determinator}} nature normally serves her very well, it occasionally causes her to develop tunnel vision in the pursuit of her goals. This goes double when combined with her HonorBeforeReason tendencies.
* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: When Dree gets captured by the Eternal Empire, Valkorion attempts to BreakHerByTalking. Though clearly shaken, Dree's response is to tell the EldritchAbomination to go [[PrecisionFStrike fuck]] himself. Notably, she doesn't expect to survive the reprisal, and very nearly doesn't.
* DualWielding: As part of her GunsAkimbo combat style.
* ExpectingSomeoneTaller: Prior to becoming Grand Champion of the Great Hunt, people often underestimated Dree due to her [[YoungGun youth]] and unremarkable stature. Even after firmly establishing herself as TheDreaded and gaining more public exposure, Dree still occasionally receives this reaction.
* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: In an inversion of LettingHerHairDown, Dree begins sporting a tight bun after previously wearing her hair loose. This signifies her CharacterDevelopment into a serious and responsible military leader.
* GlorySeeker: Early on, one of her primary motivations is making a name for herself.
-->'''Dree:''' Do I look like a coward to you?
-->'''Bounty Hunter:''' You look like a kid with fire in her eyes. The kind that gets herself killed.
* GunsAkimbo: Her fighting style.
* HealThyself: Dree always keeps emergency kolto in her pack, though its effectiveness is limited since she lacks formal medical education.
* [[HeroicBSoD Heroic BSoD]]: Experiences one of these after her tenure as a HumanPopsicle. Not only does the ordeal nearly kill her thanks to a nasty case of carbonite poisoning, Dree does not take it well when she learns that the galaxy went on for ''five years'' while she was trapped. It's especially frightening to her since she has [[RealismInducedHorror no idea what happened to her family and friends as a result of Zakuul's invasion]] and doesn't find out for ''months''. [[spoiler:While she learns that her husband and son survived, she suffers another [[HeroicBSoD Heroic BSoD]] upon learning that her brother died in her absence.]]
* HidingBehindTheLanguageBarrier: Dree is bilingual, and equally fluent in Basic and Mando'a. On more than one occasion, she uses Mando'a to privately communicate with other Mandalorians in a public environment.
* HonorBeforeReason: She's occasionally prone to this, refusing to back down on a job because [[IGaveMyWord she gave her word,]] even when she knows it would result in a better outcome. [[spoiler:This also results in her putting Shae's life in danger during the Ruhnik arc, despite knowing the risks, because it's the Mandalorian way.]]
-->'''Shae:''' [[SadisticChoice A difficult choice.]] My life or my honor.
-->'''Dree:''' You're ''Mand'alor.'' We can't have one without the other.
* HumanPopsicle: Courtesy of Emperor Arcann.
* {{Hypocrite}}:
** Dree distains the Jedi for many reasons, one of them being their incredibly narrow and dogmatic worldview, and rigid adherence to a flawed code that blinds them to reality. The problem is, the very same criticism could easily be turned around to Dree herself and her loyalty to Mandalorian ideals.
** At one point, Dree criticizes Veronika for being an assassin who murders people for a living. Veronika is quick to point out that it's a hop, skip, and jump between a career assassin and a BountyHunter, particularly since Dree kills her targets if a contract demands it.
* ImplacableWoman: Develops a well-earned reputation for this upon winning the Great Hunt.
* ImprobableAge: Dree started bounty hunting at the tender age of fifteen. She was barely nineteen when she won the Great Hunt, beating out many older and more experienced veteran bounty hunters in the process. She also becomes Commander of a massive military force before turning thirty. Made even more impressive by the fact that thanks to her time as a HumanPopsicle, she's technically only twenty-six at that point.
* IronWoobie: Not at first, but she becomes this during the ''Fallen Empire'' arc after she spends five years in carbonite, separated from her family without knowing if they're even alive, and [[spoiler:learns that her brother died in the interim.]] Despite her pain, Dree keeps her chin held high.
* ItsPersonal: Normally Dree is a strict ConsummateProfessional, and hates mixing work with her personal life. However, there have been a few exceptions.
** Jun Seros earns a spot on Dree's personal hit list when he sends Jedi to kill her fellow Great Hunt Champions. Roping her friends into the whole mess is what truly pisses Dree off, changing the dynamic from a simple professional rivalry to a personal hunt. [[CycleOfRevenge Though, Dree started the whole thing by killing Seros's friend, who himself had earned the Mandalorians' ire by killing so many of their warriors...]]
** Much later on, Arcann becomes Dree's new target. While she has plenty of impersonal reasons to hunt him down (namely his conquest of the galaxy), Dree blames him for the loss she personally suffered as a result of Zakuul's invasion, including her brother's death and wants revenge. [[spoiler:Briseile and Senya [[RestrainedRevenge talk her out of killing Arcann under the condition that he'll face a war crimes trial...]] which never actually happens.]]
** More generally speaking, part of Dree's early CharacterDevelopment is realizing that just because she views a random job as NothingPersonal, that doesn't actually distance her from the consequences of her actions. Indeed, many of her opponents have deeply personal (if one-sided) grudges.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: While Dree can be ruthless and short-tempered, she retains a surprisingly deep sense of love and loyalty towards those she cares about.
* JustFollowingOrders: This is Dree's mentality when people get understandably upset about her actions as a bounty hunter; she merely tells them to take it up with her employer. Of course, that excuse doesn't stop the consequences of her actions from catching up with her, as she learns the hard way from Jun Seros.
* TheLadette: Dree is too blunt and gruff to qualify as a LadyOfWar, but she fits this trope very well what with her tomboyish demeanor and tendency to punch people out.
* LettingHerHairDown: Inverted. Dree spends most of the early storylines with loose hair, fitting for her casual and relaxed nature. But from ''Fallen Empire'' onwards, she's generally seen sporting a tight bun. This coincides nicely with her growth into a serious and capable military leader.
* LightningBruiser: Her jetpack makes her extremely agile, but her heavy armor and massive arsenal ensure that she can still give as good as she gets in battle.
* LimitedWardrobe: Thanks to [[TwentyFourHourArmour Mandalorian conventions]], Dree is almost always seen in her armor. The only major exception is in ''Fallen Empire'' when she loses her original armor set, and spends most of that story arc in regular clothing.
* LittleMissBadass: Dree spent her entire childhood training in combat, and was fighting on active battlefields by the time she turned thirteen.
* LoveAtFirstPunch: How her relationship with Torian plays out, with her judo-flipping him after he attempts to ambush her.
* MageKiller: Mandalorians are trained to fight Jedi, and Dree is better than most. She manages to kill Kellian Jarro, the famed "Mandalorian killer", at only nineteen, and kills several other Jedi on her way to ''Battlemaster'' Jun Seros.
* MamaBear: Do not threaten her children if you value your life.
* MinorLivingAlone: In her backstory, she left her family at the tender age of fifteen to become a bounty hunter, making her an example of this trope. She's an adult by the time the story starts, though.
* MissingMom: [[spoiler:For a time, she's this to Aran. Because her five-year capture at the hands of Arcann happened while Aran was still an infant, he has no memory of her by the time they reunite. Later, their relationship is complicated by the fact that she was absent for his formative years.]]
* TheMostWanted: Actually becomes this to the Republic thanks to a laundry list of false charges. It's later rescinded, but Dree still murders Supreme Chancellor Janarus in retaliation.
* NeverHurtAnInnocent: A major principle she follows.
* NoSell: When a Jedi attempts to [[JediMindTrick mind trick]] her.
-->'''Dree:''' ''(mockingly waving her hand)'' You will realize what a complete idiot you are.
* NotInThisForYourRevolution: Initially, Dree holds this attitude toward the Sith Empire and their war against the Republic. While she holds no love for the Republic, she's still pretty contemptuous of the Imperials and only sides with them because her people are already in their employ. However, by the ''Fallen Empire'' arc, Dree is genuinely invested in fighting the Eternal Empire's tyranny and sees the Alliance as a force for good. And while she still holds some distrust of the Empire, Dree is more willing to directly aid their fight against the Republic.
* OlderIsBetter: {{Subverted}}. Dree believes this about her armor, arguing that it's valuable because it's been in her family for generations. However, the new set that she obtains near the end of ''Knights of the Fallen Empire'' proves to be superior in design and protection.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Thanks to her stint as a HumanPopsicle, she's biologically 31 and chronologically 36.
* OneWomanArmy: Let's just say there's a reason Lana and Briseile sought her out to lead the charge against Zakuul.
* PaperThinDisguise: In ''Fallen Empire'', Dree is able to repeatedly infiltrate Zakuul wearing civvies, despite being wanted by the government. While this is stated to be because of how ubiquitous her [[TwentyFourHourArmour 24 Hour Armour]] is, the fact that a wanted criminal is able to move freely about, even showing her face, is surprising to say the least.
* ProfessionalKiller: [[InsistentTerminology Though she'll balk at being called an assassin]], this is part of her job as a bounty hunter. Many of her targets end up requiring lethal force.
* ProudWarriorRaceGirl: As a Mandalorian, Dree fits this trope to a "t". She notes that she had a gun in her hand by the age of ''four'', and that this was the rule rather than the exception.
* PunchClockVillain: At first, anyway. Dree's mostly on the villainous side by default, rather than because she buys into their cause. Later {{Averted}} altogether once the Republic-Empire war takes a backseat to the [[GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere Eternal Empire's invasion,]] an event that puts Dree unambiguously on the side of good.
* RedBaron: She's Grand Champion of the Great Hunt.
* RestrainedRevenge: ZigZagged. During the ''Fallen Empire'' and ''Eternal Throne'' arcs, Dree wants nothing more than to get revenge on Arcann, both for herself and for the countless innocents his actions harmed. [[spoiler:She's talked out of it by both Briseile and Senya, and settles for letting him face legal judgment after the end of the war... [[KarmaHoudini which never happens]], much to her chagrin.]]
* SheCleansUpNicely: While Dree's good looks are commented on prior to the Eternal Thrones arc, it's not treated with much fanfare, and her outfits consist almost exclusively of practical armor. But when Dree dons a flattering dress during a BlackTieInfiltration on Zakuul, almost everyone takes notice. Though hilariously enough, her actual LoveInterest finds the change disconcerting since it's so unlike her.
* ShipperOnDeck: To Briseile and Lana. [[spoiler:She's disappointed when they decide they're BetterAsFriends.]]
* ShippingTorpedo:
** Dree opposed Aruso and Veronika's relationship, largely because she distrusted the latter's motivations and feared her brother getting hurt. However, in ''Knights of the Eternal Throne'' she gets over it and becomes genuinely grateful for Veronika's support of her family.
** Despite her former ShipperOnDeck tendencies toward [[spoiler:Briseile]], Dree is ''pissed'' when she learns that [[spoiler:Briseile and Arcann]] are an item. While her personal grudge against [[spoiler:Arcann]] is the primary reason for this opposition, Dree is correct in pointing out that [[spoiler:the genocidal former Emperor of Zakuul and the Outlander]] getting together is ''not'' a good look, to say the least.
* SpiesAreDespicable: Largely because of her HonorBeforeReason mentality, Dree firmly believes this at first. She's initially reluctant to trust Theron; not because of his allegiance to the Republic, but because he's a spy. And she judges Veronika harshly for the same issue. She seems to change her mentality, however, and explicitly regards Theron as one of her closest friends years later.
* StepfordSnarker: Dree snarks even harder than usual during her [[HeroicBSoD Heroic BSoD]] as a coping mechanism.
* StrangerInAFamiliarLand: A nonphysical example given the nomadic nature of the Mandalorians, but Dree undergoes some reverse culture shock upon being reunited with her people for the first time in half a decade. She repeatedly describes feeling "like an outsider" among her own people after spending so much time disconnected from her heritage. Even after getting over the initial shock, Dree struggles to balance her cultural loyalty and her responsibilities to the Alliance and the wider galaxy.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: She's noted to look like a female version of her late father, sharing his hair and eye color and inheriting his freckles. This also gives her a very strong resemblance to her brother Aruso.
* TookALevelInKindness: During the ''Fallen Empire'' arc, Dree's CharacterDevelopment sees her develop from a PunchClockVillain to a full on AntiHero. She's still a [[PragmaticHero pragmatist]], but her motivations are far more selfless and she ends up doing much more good.
* TragicKeepsake: Her beskar ring becomes this in ''Knights of the Fallen Empire'', symbolizing not only her lost family, but her only physical connection to her culture and heritage.
* UnscrupulousHero: Post CharacterDevelopment, Dree falls under this category. While she has no compulsions about resorting to ruthless methods to achieve her goals, she's motivated by a genuine sense of honor and responsibility.
* WalkingArmory: Possesses an arsenal that would make Iron Man blush. Pistols, a jetpack, kolto, various kinds of rockets, a stun rod, darts, even a FreezeRay; you name it, she probably has it.
* YouKnowImBlackRight: Has a moment of this when Lana expresses her apprehension about the Mandalorians.
-->'''Dree:''' Remember who you're talking to, [[StealthInsult Sith]]. Those are ''my'' brothers and sisters.
* YoungGun: Not only is this Dree's backstory, she still comes across as this prior to winning the Great Hunt.
* YouthfulFreckles: Retains these well into adulthood, much to Dree's chagrin. It contributes to others seeing her as a YoungGun early on in her career.

!!Briseile Reagre / Darth Imperius
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/star_wars__the_old_republic_2023_05_20_20_07_14_frame_at_3m22s.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:350:The Outlander.]]
\\

->''"I clawed my way from the bottom of the slave pits to the very top of the Sith Empire. I rather like the view."''
\\

A former slave turned Sith acolyte with mysterious ancestry. After accidentally killing her master in a fit of rage with Force lightning, Briseile Reagre was granted a chance at freedom... if she could survive the Sith Academy.
----

* ActionGirl: As a female Sith.
* AffectionateNickname: Those closest to Briseile will occasionally call her "Bri".
* AllGirlsWantBadBoys:
** Displays a [[HasAType consistent attraction]] to fellow morally dubious Force-users throughout her life.
** Actually PlayedWith regarding her attraction to [[spoiler:Arcann.]] While on paper their romance would be a textbook example of this trope, Briseile doesn't develop feelings for [[spoiler:Arcann]] until after his HeelFaceTurn is already complete, and she had nothing to do with said HeelFaceTurn beyond allowing it to happen naturally.
* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: She seizes her spot on the Dark Council after defeating Darth Thanaton.
* BadPowersGoodPeople: Despite mostly adhering to the Light, Briseile still uses [[ShockAndAwe Force lightning]], a skill traditionally associated with the DarkSide.
* BadassBookworm: She's the Sith Keeper of ''Knowledge'' for a very good reason.
* BetterAsFriends: [[spoiler:How her relationship with Lana ultimately ends.]]
* BeautifulSlaveGirl: Thanks to being an enslaved [[GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe Red Skinned Space Babe]], Briseile was this in her backstory. [[SoBeautifulItsACurse Briseile has a complicated relationship with her own appearance as a result.]]
* BirdsOfAFeather: She and Ashara end up bonding over being outcasts of their respective Orders with highly unorthodox philosophies.
** Also with Lana, another surprisingly affable and reasonable Sith who rejects the more destructive aspects of their culture.
* BornIntoSlavery: Her backstory. Briseile states that she was separated from her mother at birth to be sold off to the highest bidder.
* BreakingTheGlassCeiling: Not only does she become a highly successful Sith Lord despite being a Twi'lek, Briseile manages to earn a seat on the Dark Council itself. Her influence and success paves the way for reformists like Marr and Acina to encourage greater acceptance of alien species and even enables {{Muggle}} Twi'leks like Anri to find success in the Empire as respected officers.
* BrokeYourArmPunchingOutCthulhu: Briseile kills Valkorion's physical body at the start of the ''Fallen Empire'' arc, but he merely transfers his spirit into her own. She then proceeds to spend the next six years of her life dealing with the EldritchAbomination inside of her mind.
* BrokenBird: Harboring two decades' worth of trauma and coping with the ruthlessness of the Sith Empire has led Briseile to harden her heart and steel her resolve.
* BroughtDownToBadass: During the Nathema storyline in ''Knights of the Eternal Throne'', Briseile temporarily loses access to the Force. Although extremely disconcerting, that still leaves Briseile as a highly-skilled duelist.
* ByronicHero: A former slave using her newfound Sith powers (coming from her formerly suppressed passions) to get back at her former oppressors and carve a way for herself. She understandably has a rather cynical view of the Empire as a whole.
* TheChosenOne: [[AmbiguousSituation Maybe.]] Various members of the Republic and Empire view her as the former, destined to overthrow the Eternal Empire and save the galaxy; others, such as Valkorion and Heskal, view them as the latter, someone who makes her own fate. At the very least, she was in a way "chosen" by Valkorion to be his WorthyOpponent, and ''became'' special.
* CombatPragmatist: Briseile has no qualms about using her stealth abilities to ambush opponents before they have a chance to fight back.
* CommonalityConnection: Develops one with Talos. Despite their differences, they're able to bond quickly over their shared interest in uncovering Sith history and artifacts, and their unconventional ways of thinking.
* CrazySane: Her "differently rational" outlook often comes across this way in early storylines. The fact that Briseile is ''not'' AxCrazy like so many of her fellow Sith is surprising to many.
* CryForTheDevil: Briseile is one of the only characters (other than Senya) to express genuine sorrow over Vaylin's DarkAndTroubledPast, explicitly likening Vaylin's struggle for self-determination to her own. And although she regarded it as necessary at the time, Briseile later regrets ending Vaylin's life because she'd never had much choice to begin with.
* DarkActionGirl: A {{Subversion}}. Briseile carries herself as one, but the "dark" qualifier is [[DarkIsNotEvil strictly surface-level.]]
* DarkAndTroubledPast: She was born into slavery, and endured terrible brutalities as a result.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Her aesthetic is that of a traditional Sith Lord, favoring red and black clothing. But she's still the OnlySaneWoman among the Sith (save perhaps for Lana and Marr), and genuinely wants to help others.
* DeadGuyJunior: An unusual self-imposed example. Briseile originally had OnlyOneName thanks to being a slave, but she decides to take her late [[ParentalSubstitute Parental Substitute's]] first name as her surname.
* DeadpanSnarker: Briseile has a quick wit and a dry, cutting sense of humor. Especially early on, pretty much every word out of her mouth is unadulterated snark.
* DefrostingIceQueen: She presents herself as TheStoic, and presents herself with an aloof, cold demeanor. But to her friends, she's much warmer.
* FantasticRacism: ''Very'' frequently on the receiving end of this, thanks to being a Twi'lek in a violently pro-human and pro-Sith Pureblood Empire. Though interestingly enough, Briseile's struggles actually end up paving the way for societal progress as the years pass. Major Anri, also a Twi'lek and a former slave, specifically credits Briseile's influence (along with Acina's reformist policies) for the cultural developments that allowed aliens to finally gain Imperial respect.
* FreakyFashionMildMind: Don't let her [[DarkIsNotEvil stereotypically-villainous]] outfits fool you. Briseile is actually quite a reasonable person when it comes down to it.
* FromNobodyToNightmare: Briseile started life as a lowly slave, and managed to reach the top of the Empire's leadership through both sheer power and force of will.
* GiveMeLibertyOrGiveMeDeath: While a staunch believer in the Sith code, Briseile focuses heavily on the aspects of it emphasizing personal freedom. Understandable for a former slave.
* GlacierWaif: Despite her slenderness, Briseile is a tank in combat.
* GoodIsNotNice: Briseile does lots of good things but never leaves her ruthless and manipulative nature behind.
* GrandTheftMe: Poor Briseile can't seem to escape this trope. First, her Sith Master, Darth Zash, attempts to hijack her body to extend her own life. [[HoistByHisOwnPetard It backfires hilariously]]. Much later on, Valkorion ''also'' attempts to take over Briseile's body for himself. In that instance, she only survives the subsequent BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind thanks to Arcann, Vaylin, and Senya's help.
* GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe: Or red-skinned, as a Lethan Twi'lek.
* GuileHero: She's highly intelligent and has enough political savvy to navigate cutthroat Sith politics.
* HasAType: [[AllGirlsWantBadBoys Morally dubious]] [[InterspeciesRelationship humans]]. Chances are they're Force-sensitive, too.
* [[HeroicRRoD Heroic RRoD]]: Briseile finds out the hard way that this is what happens when you bind more than one Force ghost to yourself. She's forced to essentially reconstruct her body and mind to fix the damage.
* HeroicWillpower: She's able to resist the Sith Emperor's mind control on Ziost. She and Lana are the only Force-sensitive characters able to do so.
* HiddenHeartOfGold: For while, Briseile keeps this facade up to nearly everyone, except maybe Ashara. She drops it over time, especially as she gains influence and becomes the Dark Council's [[OnlySaneWoman voice of reason.]]
* IJustWantToBeFree: Especially in her early storylines, this is Briseile's primary motivation. As a former slave, she places a high value on personal freedom, and the initial reason she decides to consolidate more power is so that she can have greater control over her life. She frequently quotes the Sith Code's lines about freedom to justify her worldview and actions.
* IcyBlueEyes: Briseile has blue-gray eyes, which are frequently described as such.
* {{Immortality}}: [[AmbiguousSituation Maybe.]] In ''Shadow of Revan'', she stumbles across multiple artifacts that extend her lifespan by several solar cycles. While she opts not to further pursue immortality for herself, it's also not quite clear what the Rakatan machine did to her body. She could very well be immortal in the biological sense without knowing it.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: During ''Fallen Empire'', courtesy of Arcann. Though Dree extracts Briseile from the fight before she can suffer any further harm, it's noted that she only survives her injuries thanks to Valkorion.
* InnocentBlueEyes: An interesting variation. Though Briseile is normally described as having IcyBlueEyes, the fact that she has them at all despite being a Sith is itself indicative of her WhiteSheep status.
* InternalReformist: For the Sith Empire. Early on, Briseile specifically expresses a desire to combine the best parts of the Jedi and the Sith to create a better understanding between each side. While not particularly successful in the philosophical department, Briseile's influence does prove to have a positive effect on the Empire as a whole, particularly with alien acceptance.
* KeeperOfForbiddenKnowledge: Her job on the Dark Council. This makes Briseile privy to the Sith's most arcane knowledge outside of the Emperor's activities.
* LadyOfWar: Briseile carries herself with poise and steely grace. This is most obvious during her tenure on the Dark Council, when she wears long, sweeping ceremonial robes.
* LookingForLoveInAllTheWrongPlaces: Of all the targets of her attraction, only Lana is someone any normal person would call reasonable.
* MachiavelliWasWrong: Briseile states this almost verbatim at one point, declaring that she'd rather be loved than feared by the masses. However, her actual philosophy seems more in-line with classic Machiavellianism, which was to be pragmatic but not cruel; to evoke fear ''and'' love, and certainly not hatred.
* MadeOfIron: In part due to Valkorion's intervention, but Briseile endures and survives an astounding number of injuries. The crowner has to be getting impaled by Arcann's lightsaber, then getting up and fighting her way through the forces between her and safety. As Koth notes: people don't just ''survive'' those kinds of wounds.
* MajorInjuryUnderreaction: Briseile barely reacts to getting stabbed by Arcann, despite Dree's horrified reaction. She even manages to get to her feet and stagger back to the ''Gravestone'', though she later passes out for several days. It's all but stated that she was only able to survive and push forward due to Valkorion's interference.
* ManySpiritsInsideOfOne: The logical result of binding multiple spirits via Force-walking.
* MindGameShip: On the receiving end of this from Urtel Moren. It's left ambiguous whether his interest in her is entirely genuine or yet more Sith manipulations. Briseile reciprocates his advances anyway, coyly dancing around his questions all the while. Either way, he dies before she can figure out his true intentions.
* MyCountryRightOrWrong: Despite being a victim of the Sith regime, Briseile sees the Empire as a NecessaryEvil to preserve peace; to her, the only alternative is anarchy. She believes the Republic, for all of their talk about fairness, is blind to the fact that the Imperial civilians are just as hurt by the constant wars.
* NiceToTheWaiter: It's noted that Briseile treats her subordinates quite well, showing them respect and honoring their accomplishments. In fact, this is what convinces Ashara that Briseile is a truly good person at heart and not AffablyEvil.
* ObfuscatingInsanity: As a young Sith, Briseile acts much more deranged than her actual personality, mostly to throw off observers from her true, less Sithy motives. She gradually drops the act as she gains more influence.
-->'''Briseile:''' If you think this is bad, you should meet my ''other'' personality.
* OnlySaneWoman: Her story can be easily summarized as one long, RunningGag where, despite her eccentricities, she appears to be the only level-headed person in the galaxy while facing off against both stereotypical Jedi and stereotypical Sith.
* ParentalAbandonment: Thanks to being BornIntoSlavery, Briseile was auctioned off as an infant and never got to know her parents, though she did have a Parental Substitute growing up in Reagre.
* ThePhilosopher: Briseile engages in several philosophical debates, mostly with Ashara but also other characters like Lana and Aureina, about the nature of the Force.
* PowerIncontinence: Thanks to acquiring too many Force ghosts too quickly, Briseile struggles to control them when unleashing their power, and [[HeroicRRoD nearly kills herself in the process.]]
* PurpleIsPowerful: While Briseile's aesthetic doesn't include much purple, her unique Force powers manifest as this color.
* QuoteMine: Whenever Darth Thanathon [[AppealToTradition brings up the Sith Code]], Briseile's response is to quote the last two lines, emphasizing her freedom to choose her own path.
* [[GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe Red Skinned Space Babe]]: As a Twi'lek, Briseile technically qualifies. However, Briseile is keenly aware of how her people tend to be exploited for their beauty (having been on the receiving end of that herself), and [[DeconstructedTrope is forced to work past this perception in order to be taken seriously.]]
* ScrewTheRulesTheyreNotReal: While Briseile can appreciate certain Sith traditions, she is not hidebound to them. She frequently invokes the last words of the Sith Code ("Through victory, my chains are broken; the Force shall free me") to justify her less than Sithlike actions. In other words, Briseile argues that the ''entire point'' behind Sith philosophy - and what sets them apart from the Jedi - is the freedom to not be bound by arbitrary rules.
* [[ScrewYouElves Screw You, Jedi!]]: Delivers an epic verbal smackdown towards the Jedi for their HolierThanThou attitude and dogmatic belief that [[LoveMakesYouEvil any emotion will inevitably lead to the Dark Side.]]
--> '''Briseile:''' I have more light than you'll ever have, and I love!
* SelfMadeWoman: In a society where your birth determines your place in life, Briseile was arguably dealt the worst hand as a Twi'lek slave. She had no natural or societal advantages; all of her accomplishments were hard-won, but ''earned''.
* ShockAndAwe: Many of her abilities involve this.
* SoBeautifulItsACurse: Briseile's very beautiful even by [[GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe Twi'lek]] standards. This was most problematic during her time as a [[BeautifulSlaveGirl slave]], but still affects how she's perceived within the Sith Empire even once she's free. Luckily, once the Empire becomes marginally more progressive and Briseile gains political influence, most people stop fixating on her looks.
* SpiritAdvisor: Briseile has a penchant for attracting these. First from her ancestor Lord Kallig, then Valkorion, and then Darth Marr.
* StealthHiBye: This is one of her powers as a Sith Assassin.
* TheStoic: In contrast to the rest of her fellow [[UnstoppableRage Sith]], Briseile keeps her emotions under control and almost never loses her cool.
* SupportingProtagonist: She acts as this in later arcs featuring her as the lead, particularly following ''Eternal Throne.'' Although Briseile holds a lot of political influence, Dree's still in charge of the Alliance, and Lana is more often than not giving the orders.
* TokenGoodTeammate: To the Dark Council. For a while, anyway.
* TranquilFury: Unlike most Sith, Briseile dislikes letting her emotions control her. So when she gets angry, this is usually how it manifests.
* TraumaButton: Being controlled. As someone who spent most of her life as a slave, Briseile does ''not'' take it well when others impose their will onto her, and often lashes out in response.
* VillainousLineage: She's a descendant of the Sith Lord Kallig.
* WeirdnessMagnet: Thanks to a rare Force ability allowing her to draw restless spirits (even unconsciously), Briseile ends up dealing with a lot of ghostly weirdness throughout her life. And that's just the start of it.
* WhiteSheep: Among the Sith, and to a lesser extent, the Sith Empire as a whole.

!!Jedi Master Aureina Quellia

[[caption-width-right:350:Barsen'thor III.]]
\\

->''"The wisest gardener respects the audacity of a stone."''
\\

A Jedi Consular with a powerful connection to the Force. Aureina Quellia was born to a powerful Chandrilan family in 3666 BBY, part of the political elite on that planet. Her Force-sensitivity manifested at a very young age, and she was soon taken to the Jedi temple. As early as age four, she impressed her instructors with her prodigious level of power and skill.

Aureina is a trained Force mystic with a specialization in healing.
----

* TheAce: An extraordinarily gifted Jedi with a sharp mind and a keen intellect.
* ActionGirl: She's a female Jedi - it comes with the territory.
* ActionFashionista: Aureina loves her pretty dresses, and even in battle tends to wear elaborate robes. She likes to adorn her looks with gold jewelry.
* ActionMom: [[spoiler:She had a son by Theron. ''Jedi Under Siege'' and ''Echoes of Oblivion'' prove she can still kick all kinds of ass.]]
* AllLovingHero: She managed to redeem more than one antagonist from the Dark Side, and she strives to see the best in everyone.
* {{Ambadassador}}: She's trained as a diplomat and oversees plenty of tense negotiations. But when those fail, she can hold her own in the ensuing conflict.
* AmbiguousDisorder: Aureina is implied, but never outright stated to be on the autism spectrum. While she's strongly empathetic in the traditional sense, she appears to lack ''social'' empathy - that is, the kind of empathy that lets one understand the mindsets of others - which sometimes leads to misunderstandings. Aureina also has a [[TheSpock stoic demeanor]], [[SociallyAwkwardHero social awkwardness]], a tendency to reference [[IceCreamKoan Jedi proverbs]] to people who know little of it, and encyclopedia-like knowledge of Jedi history, mysticism, and philosophy. Granted, this can all be attributed to being highly sheltered and raised [[TheSpock Jedi]] since she was at least four, but still...
* BadassBookworm: She's very scholarly for a Jedi. Upon discovering the Noetikon-Jedi Archive, Aureina even laments that if she were able, she'd happily spend hours studying its contents.
* BarrierWarrior: She can create shields with the Force, which allow herself and her allies to absorb incoming damage.
* BigSisterMentor: She becomes this toward Nadia, acting almost as a familial role model for a girl who'd just lost her father.
* BlownAcrossTheRoom: One of Aureina's go-to moves for disabling opponents. It helps that she has a strong affinity for telekinetic Force feats.
* BreakTheCutie: [[spoiler:In ''Fallen Empire'', Aureina's failure to defend the Republic and hold the Jedi Order together takes a severe toll on her mental state. The isolation of the Ossus colony doesn't help matters either, leaving her cut off from most of the galaxy for the better part of a decade.]]
* BroughtDownToBadass: While shielding the Jedi Masters from the Sith plague, Aureina's strength and power suffer significant strain, leaving her strength only a fraction of what it normally is when she confronts Vivicar. She still manages to defeat him in single combat, and regains her full strength shortly thereafter.
* CastFromHitPoints: Her shielding ritual, which draws upon her own life force to shield plague victims. This is why it's considered such a dangerous technique.
* CelibateHero: As a Jedi, Aureina isn't supposed to maintain personal attachments, particularly romantic ones. [[spoiler:While she initially abides by her oath, Aureina later averts this trope when she falls in love with Theron Shan.]]
* ChildProdigy: Yuon claims that Aureina was stronger in the Force at four years old than she (Yuon) was at ''fifteen.''
* TheComicallySerious: In a WorldOfSnark, Aureina is one of the few characters who manages to stay serious in almost all of her appearances.
* CoolAunt: While Aureina's relationship with her sister Sariah is strained, her niece Maeve looks up to her with adoration and hero-worship.
* DangerousForbiddenTechnique: The Force-cleansing technique she learns from the Noetikons qualifies; it was so dangerous that it killed the Jedi who developed it. Aureina is repeatedly forced to use it in order to save multiple Jedi Masters from Vivicar's plague, and it nearly kills her.
* DissonantSerenity: Thanks to a combination of her Jedi training and her natural difficulties with expressing emotions, Aureina often comes across this way in high-stress combat situations.
* TheFettered: All Jedi that adhere to the Code qualify as this, and Aureina is no exception. She willingly binds herself to the ideals of the Order, choosing responsibility over expedience.
* GeniusBruiser: Aureina is very bookish and intelligent, and she's no slouch in a fight.
* GondorCallsForAid: Her storyline in ''The Rift Alliance'' centers around this trope, as Aureina acts as a diplomat to secure political and military allies for the Republic. By the end, she practically steamrolls into Corellia with a multi-species, interplanetary army.
* GoodThingYouCanHeal: Though not unlimited, Aureina is able to use her healing abilities on herself.
* GoodWearsWhite: Almost her entire wardrobe is white.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: She's kindhearted and the most idealistic member of the cast, and has the hair to match.
* HealingHands: One of her main abilities as a [[WhiteMage Force healer]] - she can heal allies and sometimes even herself with the Force.
* HeroAntagonist: She serves this role during the ''Jedi Under Siege'' storyline, opposing Briseile and Dree's fight against the Republic.
* [[HeroicRRoD Heroic RRoD]]: Her use of a DangerousForbiddenTechnique to shield plague victims in ''The Dark Plague'' ends up causing one of these, thanks to being CastFromHitPoints. By the end of that arc, she is barely able to use her powers without damaging herself. Had she used it any more, she likely would have died like the Jedi who developed said dangerous technique.
* HiddenDepths: At first glance, Aureina comes across as the perfect Jedi. But it's clear that she struggles quite a bit with her own doubts, most prominently during ''Fallen Empire''.
-->'''Aureina:''' I'm a Jedi. I have to be disciplined, selfless... sometimes it's hard.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Aureina tells Nadia and others to not hold personal attachments, especially of a familial or romantic nature. Not only does Aureina act as a BigSisterMentor for the former, she [[spoiler:contacts her biological family on Chandrila, against Jedi tradition]] and [[spoiler:has a child by Theron Shan.]] Though she later grows out of this mentality to an extent.
* IceCreamKoan: She has a rather bad tendency to spout these at the worst possible times. It comes from her sheltered upbringing. Notably, she does this less often as she becomes more worldly.
* ImprobableHairstyle: Aureina favors very elaborate, Princess Leia-esque hairstyles, which are rather impractical for a woman who spends so much time in the field.
* IncorruptiblePurePureness: While Aureina faces plenty of hardship and temptation, she never shows any signs that she's even considering the DarkSide. Even her BreakTheCutie arc only makes her adherence to the Jedi more resolute.
* InnocentBlueEyes: Aureina has bright blue eyes that symbolize her idealistic and righteous nature.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: She has a bad habit of sprouting Jedi proverbs to people who would really rather not hear that right now.
* KickingAssInAllHerFinery: Many of Aureina's outfits look like they could be Padmé Amidala's hand-me-downs. It doesn't slow her down one bit.
* LadyAndAScholar: She's highly intelligent and well-read, but also kind and humble.
* LadyOfWar: Between her composed demeanor and her elegant sense of style, Aureina definitely qualifies.
* LightIsGood: Not only is Aureina the most light-sided character ''and'' one of the most unambiguously good cast members, she also has a light {{motif}}.
* LiteralMinded: Aureina's generally skilled with words, but sometimes has difficulty understanding sarcasm.
* MartialPacifist: Badass though she may be, Aureina tries to use violence as a last resort.
* MyGreatestFailure: [[spoiler:Failing to keep the Jedi Order and the Republic safe during Zakuul's invasion. Aureina takes the various defeats suffered very hard, and blames herself for not doing more. More specifically, she also experiences a great deal of guilt over failing to stop Vaylin, despite being the only Jedi who could rival her in raw power.]]
* NiceGirl: Sweet and kind and wants the best for everyone.
* OneWomanArmy: While Aureina prefers to focus on support role in combat, when she goes on the offensive she definitely fits this trope. She's capable of clearing out enemy mooks by the dozens with her powers.
* PersonOfMassDestruction: Though it's rarely seen since Aureina has such tight control of her abilities, she's clearly capable of this. Her duel with Vaylin on Tython ends up wiping out a vast swath of forest, and Myn claims that Aureina could level an entire city with the Force if she put her mind to it.
* SacrificedBasicSkillForAwesomeTraining: While still a competent lightsaber duelist, that's pretty much all Aureina is - competent. What truly makes her a prodigy is her once-in-a-generation level of Force sensitivity. Normally, this isn't a problem. But on the rare occasion she meets someone with enough strength in the Force to counter her own powers [[spoiler:(mainly Vaylin and Briseile)]] she tends not to fare nearly as well.
* SexForSolace: During ''Galaxy Falling'', Aureina's relationship with Theron comes across this way. While they had previously had a mutual attraction that Aureina opted not to pursue, she changes her mind after [[spoiler:losing the Jedi Order,]] something that she feels immense guilt and sorrow over. The stresses they're both under motivate them to act recklessly on their feelings. [[spoiler:Though it's later {{Downplayed}} once it becomes apparent that they still love each other even years after separating.]]
* SilkHidingSteel: Aureina is very soft-spoken and polite in just about every situation, but it doesn't make her any less capable of going toe-to-toe with Sith.
* SociallyAwkwardHero: Though a very empathetic person by nature, Aureina lacks ''social'' empathy and struggles to relate to other people. Combine that with her sheltered upbringing, and she's not the most socially graceful person out there.
* SquishyWizard: Aureina is one of the strongest Force-users, but she can only take so much punishment in a physical confrontation. It doesn't help that she favors light robes over actual armor. And though she's a competent duelist, she pales in comparison to more combat-oriented characters like Myn and Tsara.
* StarCrossedLovers: With [[spoiler:Theron. They end up separated thanks to the Jedi Order's fracture and Aureina's decision to rebuild on Ossus.]]
* TheStoic: Aureina is very level-headed and doesn't like to show emotion.
* TalkingTheMonsterToDeath: She seems very fond of this technique when dealing with Sith, as seen with her handling of the Vivacar situation.
* WhiteMagicianGirl: She fits this archetype by virtue of being a kindhearted healer with an affinity for white outfits.
* WorkingWithTheEx: In ''Echoes of Oblivion'', when she and Theron are both on the team to rescue Satele.
* WorldsStrongestWoman: Among the Jedi Order, at least. Though Aureina admits to not being the best duelist in a straight-up fight, her strength in the Force is virtually unparalleled. The various feats she performs with the Force show that she more than lives up to this reputation. She's even able to fight [[TheDreaded Vaylin]] to a standstill, even if she can't beat her.

[[folder:Myn Solusar]]
!!Jedi Battlemaster Myn Solusar
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/star_wars__the_old_republic_2023_05_18_16_16_08_frame_at_0m21s.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:350:The Hero of Tython.]]
\\

->''"Talk will only get you so far. I'd rather actually do something about my problems."''
\\

Myn Solusar was born on the planet of Ord Radama, and witnessed her parents' deaths at Sith hands when her hometown was besieged. She was rescued from certain peril by a Jedi and brought into the Order as a child. Myn also witnessed the bloody end of the Great Galactic War during the Fall of Coruscant. Her experiences with the Sith stayed with her throughout the SpaceColdWar that followed, and she emerged from her training ready for the conflict to reignite.
----
* ActionGirl: This is the woman who (temporarily) killed the Sith Emperor.
* AntiHero: Develops from a PragmaticHero to a NominalHero over the course of her story.
* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Myn is one of the greatest duelists of her generation, and boy does she know it.
* BloodKnight: She enjoys a good fight, and she's no slouch with a lightsaber. At one point, Myn even wonders if she'd be better in the military than as a Jedi.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: She spends more than a year under the Sith Emperor's control, an experience which leaves her deeply broken.
* BreakTheHaughty: While Myn starts the story as a well-intentioned, if arrogant and jaded Jedi padawan, her ordeal under Darth Vitiate completely shatters her confidence.
* BrokenBird: Thanks to a hefty dose of backstory trauma combined with the many traumatic events she undergoes throughout her Jedi career, Myn is a deeply broken and jaded person.
* TheCorruptible: Myn herself notes that she always struggled with temptation and the Dark Side, and her determination to do the right thing sometimes leads her to questionable extremes. This is something the Sith soon take advantage of.
* TheChosenOne: Scourge believes her to be this trope, having foreseen her victory against the Sith Emperor three centuries before she was even born. Though the fact that the Sith Emperor turns out to be NotQuiteDead puts a wrinkle into this assertion.
* DeadpanSnarker: Not to the extent of other characters, but Myn is quite sarcastic by the standards of the Jedi Order.
* DeathSeeker: Myn becomes severely depressed and traumatized following her stint as a thrall of Darth Vitiate, and becomes much more reckless in her pursuit of his downfall. Dying doesn't concern her that much in comparison, and it's implied that she welcomes the possibility. She gets better, though her depressive tendencies come back with a vengeance during ''Knights of the Fallen Empire.''
* {{Determinator}}: Once Myn sets her mind to a goal, nothing will get in her way.
* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: Myn manages to strike down the goddamn Sith Emperor. It doesn't stick, but still.
* DudeWheresMyRespect: Myn is understandably miffed about her PassedOverPromotion at the end of her main story arc, though she concedes that Satele's criticisms aren't wrong.
* EarlyBirdCameo: In ''Impervious'', Scourge has a vision of Myn over three centuries before she was even born.
* EyeColorChange: When she taps into the DarkSide, Myn's eyes change from purple to deep gold.
* FallenHero: Unlike many examples, there is no one moment where Myn's fall to the DarkSide becomes absolute; her experience under the Sith certainly solidified it, but the pieces were there long before and would have come to fruition sooner or later. And she never switches her allegiance.
* ForcedSleep: Myn spends more than a year comatose after exposure to Tenebrae's essence.
* GoodFeelsGood: During ''Shadow of Revan'', Myn, under the guidance of Orgus's ghost, stops to help the refugees on Rishi. She notes that pretty much everything she's done in service of the "greater good" is violent, so this is a serious change of pace for her, and she walks away feeling deeply fulfilled. Unfortunately, the change doesn't stick thanks to the TraumaCongaLine she undergoes soon after in ''Fallen Empire.''
* HarmfulToMinors: Myn first witnessed her family die in a Sith attack at the age of five.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: While seemingly uninvolved in the climax of ''Knights of the Eternal Throne'', the ''Onslaught'' storyline later reveals that Myn assisted Kira and Scourge in killing Tenebrae's original body at the moment Valkorion died.
* HotBlooded: Passionate and quick to anger.
* ItsPersonal: During the ''Echoes of Oblivion'' arc, one reason Myn agrees to help the Alliance despite her hatred of them is because she has personal beef against the Sith Emperor. She also has a personal desire to help Scourge and Kira find closure in their mission.
* KnightInSourArmor: At first, anyway. Myn does good where she can, but has a rather sour outlook on the galaxy that only becomes worse, particularly after her ordeal with the Sith.
* MasterSwordswoman: She's Battlemaster of the Jedi Order for a reason.
* MilitaryMage: On several occasions, Myn is called in to assist the Republic military. On Corellia, she's even declared Commander of the Jedi forces and takes charge of their defenses. She is also named an honorary General.
* MissingTime: Though she was fully functioning, Myn couldn't remember anything during her year as a pawn of Darth Vitiate. She declines the opportunity to reclaim those memories because she's so horrified at what she might have done while under his control.
* MyGreatestFailure:
** Myn never truly forgives herself for failing to resist Darth Vitiate's mind control.
** The fact that she falsely assumed Darth Vitiate to be dead. Nevermind the fact that the entire Jedi Order ''and'' the Sith Order alike didn't see his return coming. [[spoiler:Though she finds closure at the end of ''Echoes of Oblivion'' when she helps to put him down for good.]]
** Much like Satele and Aureina, Myn is deeply shaken by the fall of the Jedi Order and Republic in ''Fallen Empire''.
* NominalHero: Especially by the end of her storyline, Myn's only really a hero by virtue of being on the side of the "good guys" and opposing the "bad guys".
* PassedOverPromotion: Satele refuses to make Myn a Jedi Master even after defeating the Sith Emperor, on the grounds of being too vulnerable to the Dark Side. To her credit, Myn realizes that she's absolutely right. However, Myn does receive the title of Battlemaster a few years later.
* PayEvilUntoEvil: Many of Myn's worst actions are directed at [[AssholeVictim unrepentant enemies that genuinely deserve it]].
* PurpleIsPowerful: Her first lightsaber has a purple blade, which is representative of her immense power and talent. She switches to a fiery orange one after her stint as a thrall of the Emperor.
* RepressedMemories: Myn represses most of her memories of the time she spent as a thrall of the Emperor. She declines the opportunity to unlock them because what she little she can remember nearly broke her.
* SheWhoFightsMonsters: What Myn ultimately turns into after her fall. She never even considers defecting to the Sith, but her hatred of them is what ultimately consumes her.
* ShellShockedVeteran: On more than one occasion, Myn's dialogue suggests that the war is psychologically breaking her down. At the start of Chapter III, she privately breaks down in tears following her ordeal with the Sith.
* SupernaturalGoldEyes: Whenever Myn particularly leans on the DarkSide, her eyes become this color.
* {{Tyrannicide}}: Myn's primary story arc ends with her killing the Sith Emperor himself. Though he later turns out to be NotQuiteDead...
* TheUnfettered: Unlike many of her peers, Myn has few qualms about sacrificing everything for the greater good - including her own morality.

[[caption-width-right:350:The Empire's Wrath.]]
\\

->''"I will burn your cities, your planets, your stars!"''
\\

A Sith Warrior with an impressive lineage and high ambitions.
----

* ActionGirl: As a female Sith.
* AgeGapRomance: With Quinn, who is 37 to her 21 when they first meet; a sixteen-year age difference. Unlike most examples of this trope, the power imbalance is firmly in her favor.
* AmazonianBeauty: Well-muscled and tough, and plenty beautiful.
* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: Generally averted with her fight scenes, but played straight with her DarkSide corruption. Most Sith become [[EvilMakesYouUgly physically deformed]] as they age thanks to the DarkSide, but nearly two decades into her Sith career, Tsara only has SupernaturalGoldEyes.
* TheBigGuy: Though not physically large, Tsara still fills this role by virtue of being one of the toughest combatants in the cast.
* BloodKnight: Tsara ''loves'' to fight. At one point, she even sums up Sith philosophy as "kill or be killed".
* BlueBlood: Why she's so favored among the Sith - she's the scion of an impressive bloodline.
* TheBrute: A lot of people, including fellow Sith, view her this way. Not unreasonably, considering her entire job is to act as an enforcer - first to Darth Baras, then to the Empire as a whole.
* CoolBigSis: Surprisingly, she acts as this to both Vette and Nomnek. It's to the point where they're both her [[MoralityPet Morality Pets]].
* TheCorrupter: Acts as this to Jaesa. Surprisingly, Tsara later expresses regret about corrupting Jaesa ''too'' much, pointing out that Jaesa is too far gone to be of any benefit to the Empire.
* DarkActionGirl: More often than not an antagonistic character, but no less of an ActionGirl.
* DestructiveRomance: Has one with Quinn, complete with mutual attempted murder. It later settles into something more stable, but still very unhealthy.
* TheDragon: First to Darth Baras, then to the Sith Emperor.
** DragonWithAnAgenda: She turns against both of them, albeit more out of self-preservation than ambition.
* TheDreaded: *Everyone* fears the Empire's Wrath, and for very good reason. Where Tsara goes, she leaves a trail of enemy bodies behind.
* DualWielding: As a Sith Marauder, she fights with two lightsabers.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Tsara disapproves of "petty" forms of cruelty, though she has few scruples about getting her hands bloody if it means advancing her objectives or crippling the enemy. She repeatedly expresses the opinion that her corruption of Jaesa went too far in the other direction. She also feels guilt for unknowingly enabling the Sith Emperor's plans of galactic genocide.
* LightningBruiser: Being a Sith Marauder, Tsara is very agile in combat, and deals high damage with each attack.
* MakeMeWannaShout: One of her abilities is "Force Scream", a sound-related attack.
* MasterSwordswoman: Tsara's skills with a lightsaber are nearly unmatched, and she's a frighteningly competent duelist.
* MeaningfulName: Her name is derived from Tsar (also spelled Czar), the Russian word for Emperor. For quite a while, Tsara serves as the ''Emperor's'' Wrath.
* PragmaticVillainy: She's ruthless and her moral compass is all but nonexistent. However, Tsara is ultimately unwilling to indulge her whims at the expense of her own goals. She also explains her dislike of slavery as being this.
* PsychicStrangle: Tsara has a tendency to Force choke her enemies.
* ServileSnarker: During her time as Baras's [[TheDragon Dragon]], Tsara very much enjoyed snarking at her master's expense.
* SignificantWhiteHairDarkSkin: Tsara's striking appearance makes her stand out all the more.
* SupernaturalGoldEyes: She develops these when she taps into the DarkSide. As the years pass, they become permanent.
* WeaknessTurnsHerOn: With Quinn. Both in Body (since she's a carnage-wreaking [[TheBigGuy Sith Warrior]] who could wipe the floor with him in seconds if she so desired and does after his betrayal), and in Temperament (since she is much more assertive and aggressive towards him, whereas he is much more humble, meek, and submissive to her).

The older brother of Dree Vizsla and the LoveInterest of Veronika Ela'en.
----

* ActionDad: [[spoiler:Once Corentin and Hélie are born.]]
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: In their youth, Aruso was this to Dree. Though both were plenty skilled, Aruso was noted to be a prodigy even by Mandalorian standards, leaving Dree in his shadow. {{Subverted}} once they're adults, however, since she surpasses him. To his credit, Aruso doesn't mind one bit.
* BadLiar: While it might very well stem from being raised in a culture that encourages HonorBeforeReason, Aruso can't tell a lie to save his life.
* BadassNormal: No powers to speak of, but he's still plenty capable of kicking ass.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Aruso is a cheerful and amiable man, but piss him off and you're in for a galaxy of hurt.
* {{BFG}}: Favors these in combat.
* DisappearedDad: [[spoiler:He's this to his twin children Corentin and Hélie, dying when they're just three years old.]]
* InterspeciesRomance: He's human, and his wife's a Chiss. His FirstLove Elisha was a Zabrak.
* NiceGuy: He's easy-going and noted to have little difficulty making friends.
* NumberTwo: To Mandalore the Vindicated, and [[spoiler:briefly]] Mandalore the Avenger.
* OppositesAttract: As a career spy, Veronika should be the antithesis of everything Mandalorians stand for. Yet Aruso still finds himself falling for her.
* ProudWarriorRaceGuy: As a Mandalorian.
* YouthfulFreckles: Apparently they run in the family, since he shares this trait with Alyss, Dree, and [[spoiler:Hélie.]] They emphasize his cheerful NiceGuy demeanor.

[[caption-width-right:350:Cipher Nine.]]
\\

->''"No one is above temptation."''
\\

Veroni'kaela'enosuru, [[OddNameNormalNickname better known as]] Veronika Ela'en, was born into the Chiss Ascendancy, and served on their SecretPolice for a number of years before joining Imperial Intelligence.
----

* AbusiveParents: Veronika's parents are... not the nicest of individuals, to say the least. While Veronika states that they never hurt her physically, they were emotionally neglectful and treated their children more as [[TrophyChild status symbols]]. [[spoiler:To say nothing of how they attempted to [[OffingTheOffspring kill]] Veronika's sister Paesha for being Force sensitive...]] When they finally [[spoiler:disown Veronika over her refusal to shun Hélie,]] she seems more ''relieved'' than anything else.
* AntiVillain: She's definitely not a hero and is perfectly willing to lie, manipulate, and backstab to further her goals, but she's genuinely loyal to the Empire and prioritizes its people over the petty machinations of the Sith.
* BadassNormal: Veronika is a {{Muggle}} surrounded by powerful Sith Lords, and she knows it. So she learned how to become ''more'' dangerous than the Sith through sheer [[CrazyPrepared preparedness]].
* {{Brainwashed}}: A major plot point in her own story. Interestingly enough, she still retains her mind even as she loses control over her actions.
* BreakTheBeliever: Veronika laments that she started as a patriot that just wanted to serve her empire, only for both the Empire and Republic to use her. She no longer knows what she stands for, and just wants to have control. While she ultimately sides with the Empire despite having multiple opportunities to renounce it, this is more out of a desire for consistency and structure than anything else.
* BreakThemByTalking: She pulls this on Darth Jadus of all people, which is still enough to get the Dark Council to fear her.
* BrokenPedestal: Strongly implied after the truth behind her brainwashing comes out.
* ColdSniper: A ruthless and calculating woman who prefers sniper rifles, Veronika definitely fits this archetype.
* CombatPragmatist: Veronika has no illusions about how she'd do in a fair fight against more powerful opponents, and makes sure to even the odds in her favor. She's also not above using stealth and assassinations to take out her opponents.
* ConsummateLiar: Veronika spent years training in the art of deception, and it shows in her ability to lie. She can fool most basic lie detectors.
* CrazyPrepared: This is pretty much a requirement for the job. Veronika brings every conceivable weapon or gadget she ''might'' need to get the job done.
* DarkActionGirl: She's morally dubious and kicks plenty of ass.
* DeadpanSnarker: With a heavy emphasis on "deadpan".
* DefrostingIceQueen: Veronika starts off very aloof, stoic, and distrusting, but opens up a little over time. This is most prominently seen in her relationship with Aruso.
* DidYouJustScamCthulhu: How she manages to talk down Darth Jadus: persuasion and good old ''blackmail.''
* TheDreaded: The Dark Council considers Veronika a credible-enough threat to their power that they force the Minister of Intelligence to initiate a brainwashing program on her. Even years later, Cipher Nine is also the subject of various "scary stories" among the Republic military.
* DoubleAgent: Part of her job.
* DoubleReverseQuadrupleAgent: In Chapter II of her class storyline, Veronika is at least nominally an Imperial agent; pretending to betray the Empire and join the Republic, in actuality a double agent, then has her Imperial brainwashing hijacked by the Republic and is actually forced to betray the Empire and becoming an unwilling triple agent until she can figure out a way to get free. There's an added wrinkle in that Veronika was also part of the Ascendancy's secret police. For a while, she seriously considers [[ScrewThisImOutOfHere calling it quits]], but ends up circling back to the Empire.
* EmotionlessGirl: Often comes across this way, between her [[TheStoic stoicism]] and general detached attitude. It's implied to be a coping mechanism for dealing with the moral consequences of her actions.
* FakeDefector: One of Veronika's most notable missions is a deep undercover infiltration of the Republic, posing as one of these.
* FemmeFatale: She oozes sexual confidence and knows how to weaponize the allure of danger.
* FemmeFataleSpy: See above.
* FormFittingWardrobe: While most of Veronika's outfits prioritize practicality over {{Fanservice}}, they are almost all very form-fitting.
* GadgeteerGenius: She's very proficient with technology, and enjoys tinkering with droids and other mechanical objects in her spare time.
* HoneyTrap: Fond of utilizing these.
* IHaveManyNames: In addition to the ''many'' aliases she has used over her career, Veronika has gone by at least three actual names: Her full name Veroni'kaela'enosuru, her [[MiddleNameBasis core name]] Nikaela, and her professional name in the Empire, Veronika Ela'en.
* IHaveNoDaughter: [[spoiler:On both the giving and receiving end of this trope. Veronika is disowned by her family for marrying a Mandalorian and later refusing to spurn or kill her Force-sensitive daughter. But years later, Veronika is deeply angered by said Force-sensitive daughter's defection to the Jedi.]]
* IJustWantToBeFree: Veronika expresses this sentiment near the end of her class storyline, after years of being controlled and muzzled by every side.
* ImmigrantPatriotism: She wasn't born in the Sith Empire, but gains dual citizenship as part of Imperial Intelligence's program with the Chiss Ascendancy. Veronika feels just as much, if not more loyalty to her adopted faction despite knowing that they would not earnestly return the favor to her own people.
* LadykillerInLove: GenderFlipped. Veronika ReallyGetsAround, but she genuinely loves Aruso.
* LaserGuidedKarma: Arguably, her brainwashing can be interpreted this way. After more than a year of backstabbing, manipulation, and disposing of loose ends, Veronika finds herself on the receiving end of that treatment. The experience proves humbling, though Veronika still retains some of her ruthlessness.
* MalignedMixedMarriage: Her parents were absolutely furious that she married a human man, and a Mandalorian at that. [[spoiler:The final nail in the coffin is when her daughter Hélie turns out to be Force-sensitive. Veronika refuses to kill or spurn Hélie in defiance of Chiss tradition, leading Veronika's parents to disown her altogether.]]
* ManchurianAgent: While retaining mental awareness, Veronika's MindControl means that she has to obey the commands of anyone who uses the "onomatophobia" command. She later frees herself.
* MindScrew: Undergoes one of these when her mind begins to break under the strain of her brainwashing, complete with a DisneyAcidSequence.
* TheMourningAfter: [[spoiler:She's genuinely ''devastated'' when Aruso dies fighting the Eternal Empire. It's especially notable considering her former ReallyGetsAround tendency that she hasn't dated anyone else even years later.]]
* MyMasterRightOrWrong: While Veronika is loyal to the Empire, she frequently expresses the opinion that the Sith are complete dangers to themselves and those around them, who need to stop interfering in Intelligence affairs and just let them do their damn jobs.
* {{Nephewism}}: [[spoiler:During the five year timeskip where Dree was believed to be dead, Veronika agreed to look after her son Aran while Torian fought in the war at Aruso's insistence, despite her personal vitriol with Dree. Unusually, Aran is her nephew by marriage and not by blood, and he later returns to Dree at the end of the war.]]
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Thanks to cultural norms in the Sith Empire, Veronika goes almost exclusively by a professional name instead of her very long Chiss birth name.
* PragmaticVillainy: She's ruthless, but not needlessly. Her actions have purpose.
* ProfessionalKiller: One of her specialties is assassinations.
* ReallyGetsAround: Veronika isn't too picky about who she sleeps with.

* RomanceAndSexualitySeparation: Veronika views love and sexuality as inherently different things, and has no qualms about sleeping with other people in furtherance of her own goals. Upon [[LadykillerInLove actually falling in love,]] however, she's uncertain of how to naturally proceed in the relationship because she viewed [[SexForServices sex as transactional]] for such a long time, and the idea of ''combining'' the two frightens her.
* SecretPolice: She was part of the Chiss Ascendancy's SecretPolice in her backstory.
* ShootTheDog: This is basically her mode of operation.
* SpyCatsuit: Much of her wardrobe falls under this trope.
* TheSocialExpert: ZigZagged. Veronika is very skilled at reading and manipulating people, capable of recognizing social patterns and identifying their weaknesses. She's also quite adept at honeying her words and [[BreakThemByTalking talking others into submission]], up to and including rogue Sith Lords. However, when it comes to genuine social interaction (that is, social interactions that lack an ulterior motive), she's much less comfortable. She's not ''completely'' inept, but her skillset does not lend itself well to cultivating friendships and relationships.
* TheSpymaster: Although she starts the story as a field agent, Veronika later gets promoted to Commander of Sith Intelligence. Veronika controls an intelligence network that few in the galaxy can rival, though she's far from omniscient.
* StealthExpert: One of several skills Veronika has at her disposal for enemy infiltrations.
* TheStoic: Veronika rarely displays any emotion. It's a result of her training as a SecretAgent.
* TookALevelInKindness: She starts out as highly ruthless and manipulative and participates in some truly awful actions. While Veronika never quite loses her ruthless streak, she becomes considerably humbled by her experiences.
* {{Transhuman}}: Or trans-Chiss, as it were. Veronika has a number of cybernetic enhancements.
* TraumaCongaLine: Her "reward" for taking down Jadus is getting brainwashed, which the SIS co-opts to control her actions, depriving her of basic agency and free will. Veronika then has a severe mental breakdown, recovering just in time for a galaxy-wide AncientConspiracy to dissolve Imperial Intelligence, leaving her without any support or resources. In the end, she only continues to support the Empire because she needs ''some'' form of stability to latch onto.
* TheVamp: Veronika isn't above using seduction and sex appeal to exploit her targets.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Veronika has done horrible things in the name of the greater good. Perhaps the most notable example is when she allowed Darth Jadus to activate the Eradicator weapons, causing thousands of deaths... to capture him and prevent ''millions'' of deaths.

A Togruta smuggler contracted by the Republic, and later the Alliance.
----

* ActionGirl: She's a sharp shot and can go toe-to-toe with the most feared criminals in the galaxy.
* AcePilot: Her introductory scene has her flying through a seemingly impenetrable blockade. Her official callsign is even "Ace".
* AntiHero: She's a good person at heart, but still a career criminal.
* BookDumb: Though she has plenty of street smarts.
* BornLucky: Alluded to be the reason she's still alive.
* TheCaptain: She claims this title and role, though it's not officially recognized by the Republic.
* TheCharmer: Kay often uses her quick wit and affable personality to turn enemies into allies and get what she wants.
* CombatPragmatist: Kay owns a stealth belt, and isn't above using it to get a leg up on her opponents. She's not fond of a fair fight, despite being capable of holding her own.
* CommonalityConnection: Has one with Guss Tuno. Despite their relationship otherwise amounting to TeethClenchedTeamwork, they're able to relate to each other over being untrained Force users. However, Guss left the Jedi as a padawan, while Kay was never a part of the Order at all.
* DeadpanSnarker: In true LoveableRogue fashion, she's not one to pass up an opportunity for a witty one-liner.
* DifferingPrioritiesBreakup: Why her relationship with Corso didn't work out. While Kay was willing to consider settling down despite not being used to the idea, she realized that they wanted different things from the relationship.
* DudeMagnet: Many characters comment on her good looks.
* EveryoneHasStandards: While Kay has few scruples about breaking the law, she draws the line at hurting innocents, and will go out of her way to help those innocents when able.
* TheGadfly: Kay loves to screw around with others for her own amusement.
* GoodBadGirl: She's a rogue and has the attitude to match, but she's firmly a hero.
* GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe: Literally in her case, being a beautiful Togruta with green-hued skin. Her rather flirty personality definitely helps.
* GroinAttack: Hokey tricks and ancient religions are no match for a durasteel-toed kick to the nards.
* HeroicBastard: [[spoiler:Her mother was a Sith, but no one knows who her father was.]]
* HonorAmongThieves: Kay is a career criminal, but she's still a good person at heart. While always looking for a quick buck, Kay draws the line at hurting innocents in any way.
* LoveableRogue: An affable, charming woman with no qualms about breaking the law when it suits her. Despite that, she's still one of the most heroic characters in the cast.
* NeverHurtAnInnocent: Kay has no qualms about committing crimes and breaking the laws, as long as no innocents suffer for it.
* {{Privateer}}: Starting in Chapter II of her class story, Kay becomes a privateer working for the Republic.
* ReallyGetsAround: She has a lot of one night stands.
* RefugeInAudacity: One of Kay's favorite techniques. The more outrageous it is, the more likely she's done it.
* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: Being a scamp on the run from the law (until becoming a privateer), Kay is best-suited to bunny-hopping the red tape that ties many a Jedi and Trooper's hands in order to help people.

* ActionGirl: A deadly female Commando.
* BadassNormal: Chamyra has no powers. She's just good with a rifle.

----

* AcePilot: During the Great Galactic War, she participated in the infamous blockade of the Hydian Way. Its success is a testament to her piloting skills.
* ActionGirl: She's a Mandalorian, so kicking ass is practically a requirement.
* ActionMom: She has two adult children, but she's still plenty capable of holding her own in battle.
* ColdGrayEyes: It's a Vizsla family trait.
* DarkActionGirl: In the eyes of the Jedi and the Republic during the Great Galactic War.
* HiddenHeartOfGold: Alyss is a deeply flawed person, but she clearly loves her family and agrees with Shae's desire to curb the Mandalorians' war-mongering.
* IceQueen: Alyss has a cold, stoic personality.
* IronLady: A stoic, hardened, no-nonsense leader of a prominent Mandalorian clan. Alyss fits this trope to a "T."
* LoveObstructingParents: To Aruso and his LoveInterest Veronika. Aruso anticipates that she'd have such a reaction, and exasperatedly tells her to lay off since he's not going to listen anyway.
* MyNaymeIs: Her name is a less conventional spelling of "Alice."
* NeverMessWithGranny: Alyss is nearing sixty by the time of ''Legacy of the Sith'', and she's a literal grandmother. She's also the matriarch of a ProudWarriorRaceGuy clan and has the ass-kicking skills to show for it. She even gets to show off her piloting skills during the fleet's clash with the Hidden Chain.

A Chandrilan Senator and an outspoken opponent of Supreme Chancellor Saresh, Sariah Fedoni began her political career fresh out of university, serving as a representative in local government. She rose to prominence in the Republic Senate during the waning years of the Galactic War. Sariah is the sister of Jedi Master Aureina Quellia.
----

* TheBeautifulElite: Born and raised as the heir to a powerful Chandrilan family, and she definitely has the beauty and elegance to match.
* BenevolentConspiracy: She forms one with a contingent of other senators to ensure that Saresh doesn't claim power past her term limit. While she successfully arranges an end to the war with Zakuul and gets Saresh removed from office, Saresh still manages to keep power by appointing a puppet.
* GracefulLadiesLikePurple: It's a regal color, so it's little wonder that Sariah seems to like it so much.
* InternalReformist: While Sariah and a group of other senators enact an "internal rebellion" against Saresh, Sariah views working within the system as the only path forward.
* KnowWhenToFoldThem: Sariah voted in favor of surrendering to the Eternal Empire during Zakuul's initial invasion. She saw that the Republic, weakened from years of war with the Sith Empire, could not stand up to Zakuul's technological superiority. Later, she also advocates against supporting the Alliance militarily because she doesn't believe a small, independent coalition could possibly stand up to the might of Zakuul.
* NonActionGuy: She fights with words, not blasters or lightsabers.

The eldest son of Dree Vizsla, Aran was born less than a year before the Eternal Empire invaded the known galaxy.
----

* TwentyFourHourArmor: Like all Mandalorians, Aran is almost never seen without his armor.
* BadassCape: He gets one upon becoming [[spoiler:Mand'alor the Great.]]
* BadassNormal: Not only is he a muggle in a galaxy full of Force-wielding maniacs, Aran also specializes in melee combat and can still go toe-to-toe with Jedi.
* ChildSoldier: Per Mandalorian tradition, Aran starts fighting in full battles at the tender age of thirteen. While Briseile expresses shock at Dree's allowance of this, she notes that this is normal in their culture, and that Aran had been itching to get out for years.
* ClashingCousins: After Hélie becomes Dar'manda, Aran notes that he might kill her if he ever sees her again. Even Dree, who also views Hélie's desertion as a betrayal, is unnerved by his zealotry.
* CunningLinguist: Thanks to spending his formative years among Chiss, Aran is one of the few humans capable of speaking their language. Additionally, he's fluent in Mando'a and Basic.
* DadsOffFightingInTheWar: Thanks to the double-whammy of Dree's disappearance and Torian's obsessive dedication to fighting the Eternal Empire, Aran was left to be raised by Veronika. Even after Dree's return, she still (very reluctantly) decides not to return to him out of fear that the Eternal Empire might use him against her somehow. They're reunited after the end of that arc, though it's repeatedly noted that Dree and Torian both have very strained schedules that make raising a family difficult.
* TheDutifulSon: Particularly in his younger years, Aran has a bit of a complex about this. He is keenly aware about Clan Cadera's tenuous status, and works to prove that he's not an InadequateInheritor (even if no one actually believes that to be true).
* FamilyEyeResemblance: He's repeatedly noted to have inherited Dree's piercing silver eyes.
* GuysSmashGirlsShoot: He appears to have this dynamic with his two sisters, specializing in melee combat instead of gunplay.
* {{Nephewism}}: On the receiving end of this trope for the first six years of his life, courtesy of his aunt Veronika and his parents' absence thanks to the war. He returns to his parents after the fall of the Eternal Empire.
* ProudWarriorRaceGuy: Even moreso than most Mandalorians, which is really saying something. Aran is somewhat zealously nationalist in his views.
* TheStoic: Though shown to be more openly emotional in his youth, Aran is highly reserved as an adult.

[[caption-width-right:350:.]]
\\

->''"."''
\\

A half-Chiss, half-human, Mandalorian-turned-Jedi, Hélie has quite the resume.
----

* ChildOfTwoWorlds: Arguably her defining characteristic is the sheer scope of her history. Hélie is one of the only known Chiss/human hybrids, she was raised with both Chiss and Mandalorian customs. To say nothing of her decision to join the Jedi, binding herself another ideology altogether in the process.
* DefectorFromDecadence: She grew disgusted with the Empire, and by extension the Mandalorians' blind adherence to them, and defected to the Jedi. Notably, she became ''Dar'manda'' in doing so, which is why she isn't counted as the first Mandalorian Jedi. That honor went to another descendant of her bloodline - Tarre Vizsla - over two thousand years later.
* TheEmpath: Hélie is noted to have an unusual affinity for Force Empathy and can keenly sense the emotions of others. It's one reason why she shies away from violence; she can sense the pain and fear of her opponents.
* FatherIDontWantToFight: She gets hit with this trope hard as a youth, chafing against the ProudWarriorRaceGuy traditions of the Mandalorians from an early age. While part of this is due to the unconventional way she was raised (since her mother is not Mandalorian), it mostly comes down to her conflicting moral values.
* FriendlessBackground: She never got along well with her Mandalorian brethren thanks to a clash of ideals, and any Chiss (other than her mother) rejected her outright. Even once Hélie found her calling with the Jedi, she still often faced judgment and scrutiny for her strange background.
* HalfHumanHybrid: Half human, half Chiss. Bonus points for being one of the only known examples.
* LikeParentUnlikeChild: She's quite different from both of her parents in terms of personality. She lacks the HotBlooded and battle-hungry tendencies of her father, and is ''far'' from the ruthless FemmeFataleSpy that her mother is. She's far more of a MartialPacifist than anything else.
* LittleMissBadass: Like her brother and older cousin, Hélie was trained in multiple forms of combat from an early age. Her Force-sensitivity makes her a dangerous fighter even as a child.
* MageBornOfMuggles: While this trope is far from unheard of in the Star Wars setting, what makes her case particularly notable is her status as a Mandalorian and a Chiss, both of whom react rather badly to this revelation.
* MartialPacifist: Hélie prefers to use violence only as a last resort, and always attempts to respond disputes diplomatically. It's why she was such a poor fit for the [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Mandalorians]]. However, that doesn't mean she can't kick your ass if you truly deserve it.
* MyNaymeIs: Her name is pronounced like the conventional name "Hailey", but has a more fantastical spelling.
* NeverAcceptedInHisHometown: Thanks to her more pacifistic views, Hélie suffered this during her childhood among the Mandalorians.
* PolarOppositeTwins: With Corentin, an enthusiastic HotBlooded Mandalorian warrior. They conflict a great deal in both personality and ideology.
* ShedTheFamilyName: She stops using her surname after leaving the Mandalorians.
* ShyBlueHairedGirl: Thanks to her FriendlessBackground, Hélie is rather withdrawn and quiet in social contexts. Thanks to her Chiss heritage, she also has icy blue hair.
* WhiteSheep: Arguably compared to most of her family. While her family is comprised mostly of [[AntiHero Anti Heroes]], [[AntiVillain Anti Villains]], and PunchClockVillains, Hélie is more traditionally heroic.

The only son of Aureina Quellia and Theron Shan, Kyler was born on the isolated Jedi colony of Ossus in 3635 BBY.

Kyler boosts an impressive heritage, claiming descent from Revan, the Exile, and Bastila Shan, and having the legendary Barsen'thor III as a mother.
----

* ChildOfForbiddenLove: Like his father before him, Kyler is the result of a Jedi breaking her VowOfCelibacy.
* DeadpanSnarker: While generally a NiceGuy, Kyler isn't above poking fun at someone else's expense.
* DisappearedDad: Thanks to Ossus's isolation and the resurgent war between the Republic and Empire, Kyler didn't meet Theron until he was nine years old. Poor Theron wasn't even aware of his son's existence until the ''Echoes of Oblivion'' arc.
* FarmBoy: He was raised on the Jedi colony of Ossus, which was agricultural in nature and entirely self-sustaining.
* NiceGuy: Though sometimes a bit jaded, overall Kyler is a very heroic and personable guy.
* OneManArmy: Thanks to hailing from two powerful bloodlines, Kyler is highly strong in the Force and one of the greatest duelists of his generation. He's even able to fight Battlemaster Myn Solusar - the woman who defeated Darth Vitiate - to a standstill.
* OnlyFriend: To Hélie, at first.
* RageAgainstTheMentor: On more than one occasion, Kyler angrily calls out Myn's less-than-subtle DarkSide tendencies.

->''"Fancy tricks mean nothing when a well-aimed blaster bolt gets the job done."''
\\

The youngest child of Dree Vizsla.
----

* BloodKnight: Even more so than most Mandalorians.
* FamilyEyeResemblance: She inherited the trademark Vizsla ColdGreyEyes.
* MadBomber: Juna seems to like explosives a little too much, and incorporates plenty of them into her combat technique.
* YouthfulFreckles: Juna has her mother's freckles.

[[/folder]]

* ActionMom: Revan, Senya, Satele, and Dree all kick plenty of ass even after having their children.

* BigDamnReunion:
** Revan and Jasper's reunion. In spite of the hell they went through, they're just happy to see each other again.
** In ''Fallen Empire'', Dree and Torian's reunion plays out this way. The former went months without knowing what became of her husband, while the latter sincerely believed Dree to be dead. So when they reunite on Darvannis after more than five years apart, it's about as emotional as you'd expect.

* FriendlyEnemy: Briseile and Aureina act as this to each other. Neither wishes the other any ill will, have shared interests, and Aureina believes that Briseile is redeemable, but they ''are'' on opposite sides of the renewed war between the Republic and Sith Empire.

* TheLancer: Briseile and Dree act as mutual co-lancers, depending on which of them is the focus for that particular arc. They have a RedOniBlueOni dynamic, act as the ''de facto'' and ''de jure'' leaders of the Alliance, and even their combat abilities complement each other (a melee Force-sensitive [[GlacierWaif tank]] and a ranged BadassNormal damage specialist).

* MultipleChoiceFuture: Force prophets can see multiple potential futures. When Aureina expresses horror at receiving knowledge of the future (however vague), the Jedi prophet reminds her that those are just one of many possibilities. He even offers multiple potential fates for her holocron.

* RelatedDifferentlyInTheAdaptation: In canon, Vaner Shan is the son of Revan and Bastila. In this work (which depicts Revan as a woman), Vaner is instead their mutual ''grand''son. This neatly combines their bloodlines for ''The Collision of Stars'', where Satele and Theron Shan are depicted as being both of their descendants.
* SoldierVsWarrior:
** Canderous and Carth get into an argument over this trope. Carth is ''not'' happy when [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Canderous]] compliments his skills as a warrior, insisting that he's a soldier—his job is to protect innocents from the warriors.
** This theme continues in subsequent storylines, including on the factional level. The Republic represents the Soldier, while the Empire represents the Warrior. When assuming the role of Alliance Commander (a military position), Dree even lampshades this trope outright.
-->'''Narration:''' Dree Vizsla had never been a soldier. Oh, she knew plenty of war. She was a warrior, born and raised, and she had spent the past sixteen years of her life fighting other people’s battles. War was in her blood. But she wasn’t a soldier. The only command she answered to was her own.
* SpaceColdWar: ''The Collision of Stars'' features this as its initial setting, beginning ten years after the end of the Great Galactic War. However, it only takes two years for the Treaty to dissolve and for the war to resume.
* SparedButNotForgiven: Dree pulls this trope on [[spoiler:Arcann]] during the ''Eternal Throne'' arc. She's talked out of killing him by [[spoiler:Briseile and Senya,]] but refuses to forgive him for what he's done to her personally and the galaxy at large. [[spoiler:Sure enough, Dree is absolutely ''furious'' when Arcann becomes a KarmaHoudini, since she was promised that he'd at least face a trial for his war crimes.]]
* TakingYouWithMe: Early on in ''Fallen Empire'', Dree attempts this by ramming Darth Marr's critically-damaged flagship at the Eternal Fleet. Though she manages to take down one Zakuulan ship out of hundreds, the move proves a failure; Dree survives, but manages to kill nearly everyone on board her ship aside from Marr and Briseile (who get captured anyway).
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: This is Aureina and Myn's default mode of operation.
** In ''Echoes of Oblivion'', Aureina, Myn, Briseile, Tsara, and Dree all have to work together to defeat the Sith Emperor once and for all. Pretty much the only thing keeping that particular group from killing each other (aside from HeterosexualLifePartners Dree and Briseile) is their shared hatred of Vitiate.
* {{Tyrannicide}}: Oh boy, where to even ''begin'' with the Sith Emperor:
** Revan attempted to kill him twice, but failed both times. The first encounter ended with her and Malak becoming irrevocably corrupted by the DarkSide, while the second attempt proved a miserable failure that results in the death of Jasper.
** Centuries later, Myn defeats Darth Vitiate... or so she thinks. Tsara's storyline reveals that Myn only took down the Voice of the Emperor, leaving much of his essence intact.
** Briseile kills Valkorion's body at the start of ''Knights of the Fallen Empire'', but his spirit hangs around in her mind for another six years. She puts down his spirit in ''Knights of the Eternal Throne''.
** Also in ''Eternal Throne'', Myn, Scourge, and Kira kill Tenebrae's original body.
** Thanks to the combined efforts of pretty much every major Force-using character, every incarnation of his spirit is ''finally'' gone for good in ''Echoes of Oblivion''. Probably.
* UnequalPairing: Shows up in several instances, with [[DestructiveRomance Tsara and Quinn]] being the most overt example thanks to the immense power disparity.
* VillainousCrush: Arcann seems to have a [[VillainTakesAnInterest fixation]] on Briseile that goes beyond her connection to Valkorion and the Alliance. [[spoiler:Though said VillainousCrush is never outright confirmed until after his HeelFaceTurn, and Arcann himself was in denial of it at the time.]]
* WeAreStrugglingTogether: As the two strongest surviving Jedi still actively involved in the Order, Myn and Aureina have to work quite closely together. That doesn't mean they have to like it. Or each other.

* GoodWearsWhite: Almost her entire wardrobe is

* {{Hypocrite}}: Aureina tells Nadia and [[spoiler:Alessaine]] to not hold personal attachments, especially of a familial or romantic nature. Not only does Aureina act as a BigSisterMentor for the former, she [[spoiler:contacts her biological family on Chandrila, against Jedi tradition]] and [[spoiler:has a child by Theron Shan.]]

* HurtingHero: He's deeply haunted by his actions during the Mandalorian Wars even ten years later. He even bitterly calls Revan out on this during their reunion, noting that while she has the knowledge of what happened, she doesn't have to live with the memory of it. [[spoiler:At least until she regains her memories later on]].

* BreakTheBeliever: Veronika laments that she started as a patriot that just wanted to serve her empire, only for both the Empire and Republic to use her. She no longer knows what she stands for, and just wants to have control.

* TheDreaded: After dealing with Darth Jadus, the Dark Council considers Veronika a credible-enough threat to their power that they force the Minister of Intelligence to initiate a brainwashing program on her. Even years later, Cipher Nine is also the subject of various "scary stories" among the Republic military.

* TheSocialExpert: ZigZagged. Veronika is very skilled at reading and manipulating people, capable of recognizing social patterns and identifying their weaknesses. She's also quite adept at honeying her words and talking others into submission. However, when it comes to genuine social interaction (that is, social interactions that lack an ulterior motive), she's much less comfortable. She's not ''completely'' inept, but her skillset does not lend itself well to cultivating friendships and relationships.

* TraumaCongaLine: Early on in her story, Veronika is forced by circumstance to press the button that kills thousands of innocent civilians ''and listen to their dying screams'', all to capture a dangerous Sith. Her "reward" for taking down Jadus is getting brainwashed, which the SIS co-opts to control her actions, depriving her of basic agency and free will. Veronika then has a severe mental breakdown, recovering just in time for a galaxy-wide AncientConspiracy to dissolve Imperial Intelligence, leaving her without any support or resources. In the end, she only continues to support the Empire because she needs ''some'' form of stability to latch onto.

* ExpectingSomeoneTaller: Prior to becoming Grand Champion of the Great Hunt, people often underestimated Dree due to her [[YoungGun youth]] and unremarkable stature. Even after firmly establishing herself as TheDreaded, Dree still occasionally receives this reaction.

A [[spoiler:Force-sensitive]] Togruta smuggler contracted by the Republic.

* FightsLikeANormal: [[spoiler:Kay is Force-sensitive, but never received Jedi training - nor does she particularly want to. As a result, she fights like any other Smuggler.]]

* MinorLivingAlone: In her backstory, she left her family at the tender age of fifteen to become a bounty hunter, making her an example of this trope. She's legally an adult by the time the story starts, though.

* OlderIsBetter: {{Subverted}}. Dree believes this about her armor, arguing that it's valuable because it's been in her family for generations. However, the new set that she obtains near the end of ''Fallen Empire'' proves to be superior in design and protection.

* SexEqualsLove: In a notable contrast to Veronika, Dree believes in this trope. She's unable to wrap her mind around the idea of a RomanceAndSexualitySeparation, viewing the latter as a natural extension of the former. This disagreement actually ends up being a source of conflict between the two of them, as [[MySisterIsOffLimits Dree thinks that Veronika will just use and hurt her brother]]. [[spoiler:Though she later admits to being wrong about Veronika's intentions, at least.]]

Brought into the Jedi Order as a child, Myn Solusar witnessed the bloody end of the Great Galactic War during the Fall of Coruscant. That experience stayed with her throughout the SpaceColdWar that followed, and she emerged from her training ready for the conflict to reignite.

* BloodKnight: She enjoys a good fight, and she's no slouch with a lightsaber. At one point, Myn even wonders if she'd be better in the military than as a Jedi.

* AbusiveParents: Veronika's parents are... not the nicest of individuals, to say the least. While Veronika states that they never hurt her physically, they were emotionally neglectful and treated their children more as [[TrophyChild status symbols]]. [[spoiler:To say nothing of how they attempted to [[OffingTheOffspring kill]] Veronika's sister Paesha for being Force sensitive...]] When they finally [[spoiler:disown Veronika over her refusal to kill Hélie,]] she seems more ''relieved'' than anything else.

* RomanceAndSexualitySeparation: Veronika views love and sexuality as inherently different things, and has no qualms about sleeping with other people in furtherance of her own goals. Upon [[LadykillerInLove actually falling in love,]] however, she's uncertain of how to naturally proceed in the relationship because she viewed [[SexForServices sex as transactional]] for such a long time, and the idea of ''combining'' the two frightens her. This serves as a notable contrast to Dree's mentality of SexEqualsLove.
