| 34 | * RagtagBunchOfMisfits: Aside from Maz, her gang includes two handicapped former child assassins, a bard with his parole officer riding in his armor, a brutish crustacean with an inferiority complex, a man with many backgrounds who would become a diner owner centuries later, a blood-sucking alien mechanic, and a rebellious Jedi Padawan. Later members would include the bard's parole officer and a pirate hunter who was in an on-and-off relationship with one of the handicapped assassins. |

| 49 | A pirate active during the High Republic era who was part of Maz's gang and wanted in about 20 systems. |
| 50 | ---- |
| 51 | * AchievementsInIgnorance: According to Sav, he once [[OneManArmy single-handedly]] took over an entire battle station. By mistake. |
| 52 | * DatingCatwoman: Alak and the pirate hunter Raf Thatchburn fell in love with each other at some point. However, as Coromont points out, while this kind of thing would be [[LampshadeHanging the stuff of holo-dramas]], their career choices ultimately [[ThisIsReality put them at odds with each other]]. They get back together again when Raf resigns from being pirate hunter and chooses the pirate's life. |
| 53 | * DefectorFromDecadence: He was originally part a cult of child assassins called the Scarlett Skulls, with his parents being one of the cult's five ruling families. He left the cult before his initiation ritual when he realized a young girl (Quiet Shan) was going to go through the same hardships he's been through. Alak took down the cult the day Shand was to be initiated. |
| 54 | * EnemyMine: When he and Maz's crew learn about the Dank Graks' helping to incite the Battle of Jedha, he tips off Raf in spite of him being a pirate hunter, if only because things have gotten ''that bad'' on Jedha. |
| 55 | * HandicappedBadass: He's missing at least his legs, which have been replaced with cybernetic spider legs. Being raised in a cult of assassins, he's still capable of ripping combat droids apart with his bare hands. |
| 56 | * LiteralDisarming: When facing off against a pirate droid aboard the Dank Graks' ship, the droid demands that Alak "unhand [him]" while grappling only for Alak to rip his arms off. |
| 57 | * ManlyGay: He's the only male human on Maz's team, and he's a perpetually shirtless mountain of muscle that can rip apart a droid with his bare hands, and he was also in love with a male, but slightly more effeminate pirate hunter. |
| 58 | * ScaryBlackMan: Subverted. He's a muscular, shirtless, tattoo-covered dark-skinned man with cybernetic spider legs that was a former child assassin, is a wanted criminal in 20 systems, took over an entire battle station by himself, and can rip apart droids with his bare hands. However, he's also got a soft spot for children (which is what led him to taking Shan as his prodigy) and he asks for Maz's crew for emotional support when he tries to talk with his pirate hunter ex-boyfriend, Raf Thatchburn. |
| 59 | * SpiderPeople: His legs at least have been replaced with a pair of robotic spider legs, making him look like a cyborg spider centaur. |
| 60 | * TattooedCrook: He has a lot of circular tattoos all over his body. |
| 61 | * TykeBomb: He was originally raised in a cult of child assassins called the Scarlett Skulls. |
| 62 | * WalkingShirtlessScene: He's never been seen wearing a shirt, only wearing [[BadassBandolier a pair of bandoliers]]. |
| 63 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: While most of his non-human colleagues lived into the Starlight Beacon era, it's unknown what he was up to between Phase II and III. However, as there is a 150 year gap between the phases (and humans like him don't usually live that long), he's long dead at that point. |

| 74 | Alak's usually silent prodigy, who was also recruited to be part of Maz's gang. |
| 75 | ---- |
| 76 | * BewareTheQuietOnes: According to Sav, anyone who's heard her speak died shortly after. However, it's revealed that this is an exaggeration, as she doesn't kill Raf Thatchburn after she tells him she saved him at Alak's request, but she does say something to a Trandoshan pirate threatening Raf before she kills him. |
| 77 | * MoralityPet: She is revealed to be this to Alak, as him learning she was about to go through the same hardships in the Scarlett Skulls that he did is what convinced him to turn on them and later rescue her. |
| 78 | * SuddenlySpeaking: After saving Raf from some vengeful pirates, she tells Raf why she saved his life. |
| 79 | -->'''Shan:''' ...You......make [Alak]......smile...inside... |
| 80 | * TongueTrauma: As part of the Scarlet Skulls initiation ritual, she had her tongue cut out before Alak rescued her, which is why she doesn't talk. However, the fact that she vocally tells Raf Thatchburn why she saved his life suggests that she might have had her tongue replaced, although its apparent she struggles to speak. |
| 81 | * TwoFaced: Her cybernetics aren't as extreme as Alak's, only comprising half her face. |
| 82 | * TykeBomb: Like Alak, she was also raised to be an assassin since she was a child. |
| 83 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: While most of her non-human colleagues lived into the Starlight Beacon era, it's unknown what she was up to between Phase II and III. However, as there is a 150 year gap between the phases (and humans like her don't usually live that long), she's long dead at that point. |

| 98 | * NotHyperbole: The songs he's written about having the law on his back? He means it quite literally, as his parole officer, Rado, is riding inside the back of his armor to rat on him if he does anything illegal...which he does all the time. The only reason Rado doesn't go through with it is that he fears he might be [[GuiltByAssociation implicated by association]]. |

| 110 | * GuyInBack: Quite literally so. As part of Coromont's parole, he's literally riding in the back of his armor to keep tabs on him. In other words, Coromont's songs about the law always being on his back [[NotHyperbole weren't hyperbole]]. |
| 111 | * HiddenDepths: Despite being a talkative but incompetent cop, he seems to be a skilled therapist, as shown when he helps Therm Scissorpunch overcome his own insecurities about himself. |
| 112 | * LawmanGoneBad: He used to be Coromont's parole officer, but now he's a pirate himself. |
| 113 | * MotorMouth: Whenever Coromont or anyone else in Maz's crew talks about performing any illegal activity, he goes on long spiels about what he's going to report. However, the pirates not only tune him out, he never seems follow through with it. |
| 114 | * PoliceAreUseless: While he was Coromont's parole officer, he never actually followed through this threats to report him. Eventually, he seemed to have just called quits and ingratiated himself into Maz's gang. |

However, he saw right through Sav's lies and just played along with them. |
| 176 | * EvilCounterpart: To Maz during the High Republic era, who is also a Force user in charge of a pirate gang. Unlike Maz, who is a FriendlyPirate and on good terms with the Jedi, Arkik is a former Dark Force cultist with a grudge against her and the Jedi. |
| 177 | * LadyLooksLikeADude: He mistakes Sav Malagan (a teenage female Kyuzo) for a young boy when she's in her "Bazrip Ratht" [[PaperThinDisguise disguise]] and even after he reveals that he knew she was a Jedi all along. |
| 178 | * MovingTheGoalposts: When Sav Malagan tries to ingratiate herself into the ranks of the Dank Graks, Arkik has her take the two-part "Trial of the Graks" (which according to Saya Keem, he just made up). After Sav passes the first parts, Arkik suddenly introduces a third part where she has to take out some enforcer droids. |
| 179 | * ObfuscatingStupidity: While he seems to have bought Sav Malagan's outrageous claims of being a ruthless Dark Force user, the sixth issue reveals that he wasn't fooled for a second, and he actually let her join so he could get some intel from her, and use her to [[FeedTheMole lure Maz's pirate gang]] to Jedha as a distraction to take over Takodana. |

| 197 | * DoesNotLikeMen: In her heart-to-hearts with Sav, she mentions that she dislike boys (except for Drrn, whom she sees as something else), which is how she figured out she actually wasn't a boy like the other Graks presumed. |
| 198 | * DragonAscendant: After Arkik Vonn was captured, she became the new leader of the Dank Graks and reshaped it into a more noble group of pirates. |
| 199 | * FirstLove: Her first love was Sav, and she was heartbroken by their parting on Jedha. They eventually patched things out and became friends. |
| 200 | * HasAType: It is mentioned in ''Escape From Valo'' that Sav was far from the only Jedi that Saya fell in love with. |
| 201 | * InterspeciesRomance: She (an Iridonian Zabrak) develops a crush on Sav Malagan (a Kyuzo) when the latter infiltrates the Dank Graks. |
| 202 | * KarmaHoudini: She never faced any comeuppance for her involvement in Arkik Von's plot. |
| 203 | * LegendaryInTheSequel: By the time of ''[[Literature/StarWarsEscapeFromValo Escape from Valo]]'' (150 years after ''The High Republic Adventures (2022)''), Saya has become known as a legendary pirate queen. |
| 204 | * MayflyDecemberRomance: Her relationship with Sav was ultimately one of these, since Kyuzo have much longer lifespans than Zabraks (who live about as long as humans). At the time of the Nihil crisis (150 years later), Saya has long since passed away while Sav is still alive (albeit still elderly) at the age of 165. |
| 205 | * OnlySaneByComparison: The Dank Graks are a bunch of weirdos. Between Arkik's megalomania, Drrn being easily provoked, and Lavalox Verzen being a trigger-happy and cannibalistic lunatic, the worst that can be said about Saya is that she can be a CloudCuckoolander and thrill-seeking teenager at times. However, she's also the only person in the group to catch on that "Bazrip Ratht" is actually a girl and not a boy as the other three presumed. She's also the only person on the ''Grim Devourer'' who seems to know how to cook good food. |
| 206 | * PerkyGoth: Her in her first few appearances, she seems to be the dark and brooding type. When Sav tries to join (under the alias of "Bazrip Ratht"), she proves to be excited by the idea of another teenager joining the crew, is gleeful at being lifted up with the Force (whereas Drrn and Lavalox are uncomfortable), and is very forthcoming with Sav. She also ecstatically refers to Tanteek, Raf Thathburn's Corellian hound as a "puppy". |
| 207 | * RichesToRags: She was originally from a wealthy family on Coruscant. She left because that lifestyle was, in her words, a "carefully manicured hell hole". |
| 208 | * TheSmurfettePrinciple: She's the only girl among the Dank Graks. This is subverted in the final issue, where Tera Sinube (who was impersonating Lavalox Verzen the whole comic) reveals that the real Lavalox is a woman. |
| 209 | * TookALevelInKindness: After becoming the new leader of the Dank Graks, she reformed them into a nobler breed of pirates. |
| 210 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: She and Drrn were away from Takodana when Arkik was defeated. She was last seen on Jedha, but her whereabouts after that are unknown, while Drrn left to look for her. ''Escape From Valo'' (long after she passed away) revealed that she eventually became the new leader of the Graks and reformed them. |

| 224 | * BewareTheQuietOnes: So far, his dialogue consists of contemplative sounds and angry grunts. However, it doesn't take much to set him off. |
| 225 | * HairTriggerTemper: On the surface, he seems to be the most reserved of the Graks, usually just standing there looking creepy. When Saya teases him by throwing a pillow at him while on break, he tries to chase after her. |

| 242 | ---- |
| 243 | * AxCrazy: To say Lavalox has more than a few screws loose would be a massive understatement. The real Lavalox is also implied to be clinically insane, as Tera Sinube mentions he had admitted her to the Grava Asylum, the same place where Azlin Rell would be treated after his encounter with the Nameless. |
| 244 | * ImpersonationExclusiveCharacter: As the Lavalox seen in ''The High Republic Adventures'' is actually Tera Sinube in disguise, the real Lavalox is never seen as she has since been admitted to the Grava Monastery. |
| 245 | * LethalChef: According to Saya, his cooking leaves a lot to be desired, which may or may not have something to do with his [[SapientEatSapient unusual tastes]]. |
| 246 | * TheMole: He's actually an undercover Tera Sinube. |
| 247 | * ObfuscatingInsanity: His trigger-happy and cannibalistic persona is all just an act on Tera Sinube's part. However, it's implied the real Lavalox was genuinely insane, as she had already been admitted to an asylum for Force users. |
| 248 | * ReformedButNotTamed: Tanana Keem mentions that Lavalox is one of several pirates subversively fighting against the Nihil in the Occlusion Zone at the end of ''Escape from Valo'', and the use of her proper pronouns implies that this may be the ''real'' Lavalox instead of just Tera Sinube in disguise. However, Tanana also jokes about Lavalox's storied cannibalism, implying the Grava Monastery didn't completely rehabilitate her. |
| 249 | * SamusIsAGirl: After revealing himself to be Tera Sinube, he casually reveals that the real Lavalox is a woman. |
| 250 | * SapientEatSapient: If him asking what certain people taste like is any indication, he's a serial cannibal of sentient species. When Sav Malagan claims to have killed Tera Sinube to the Dank Graks, Lavalox -- a Cosian like Master Sinube -- asks what he tasted like, with Sav replying that he tasted bland. This becomes a case of RefugeInAudacity when "Lavalox" reveals that he ''is'' Tera Sinube. And this wasn't just an act on Sinube's part; according to Tanana Keem, the real Lavalox actually did eat people. |
| 251 | * StereotypeFlip: Cosians are known for their curiosity. Lavalox is a cannibalistic lunatic that's curious about what other people taste like after they've been killed. |
| 252 | * WalkingSpoiler: It's hard to say much about his characterization beyond his apparent lunacy without mentioning his true identity. |

| 289 | |
| 290 | A young aspiring pirate and the captain of the ''Iron Talon'', who, along with his cohorts Pord and EB-3, frequently operated on Tanoo and clashed with Jedi Initiate Kai Brightstar and his friends. |
| 291 | ---- |
| 292 | * AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: [[spoiler:Underneath his helmet, Cyrus has pinkish-red skin. His species isn't explicitly stated, but he and his parents may be Zeltrons.]] |
| 293 | * ArchEnemy: To the Younglings of Tanoo, particularly Kai Brightstar. Though their relationship gets increasingly complex as the show goes on, he's is the longest and most persistent enemy they face, and his rivalry with Kai is strong enough that during a force vision Kai's mind specifically conjures Taborr as a TheCorrupter to antagonize him. |
| 294 | * BadassNormal: Taborr has no apparent force sensitivity and is armed with just an electrostaff and a wrist blaster, but is able to hold his own against Jedi - albeit ones his own age. He's often a match in combat for Kai Brightstar - who is himself also no slouch despite his age - even defeating him on occasion. |
| 295 | * BerserkButton: He does not like other people - especially other pirates - dismissing him as "JustAKid". [[spoiler:Part of this stems from his ineffectualness as Prince Cyrus Vuundir.]] |
| 296 | * BruceWayneHeldHostage: A villainous variation. He once attempted a robbery in a place where [[spoiler: his civilian identity was last seen. When the Jedi arrive and find Taborr instead of Cyrus, they assume Cyrus was taken hostage and Taborr ends up accidentally on the hook for kidnapping himself. He does ''almost'' decide to just come clean instead of going through the hassle, but in the end he instead manages to con the Jedi into letting him escape in exchange for Cyrus being "let go."]] |
| 297 | * CardCarryingVillain: He's a pirate and he wants everyone to know it. |
| 298 | * TheFaceless: For much of ''Young Jedi Adventures'', he never takes off his helmet. [[spoiler:It isn't until "The Pirate and the Prince" that his identity is revealed as Prince Cyrus Vuundir, who Kai and friends met in "Aftershock", an episode Taborr was otherwise uninvolved in.]] |
| 299 | * FameThroughInfamy: Downplayed. Taborr's only goal is to get awe and adulation as the greatest pirate in the galaxy. He specifically targets the Jedi because robbing them brings get him more respect, but while he sells things he nicks at the local WretchedHive he doesn't actually seem to care about money - he's perfectly willling to ditch a payday if something else happens that might make him even more famous. However, unlike other examples of this trope, he takes a PokeThePoodle approach to his piracy. [[spoiler: It's eventually revealed that, since he's a wealthy prince, he doesn't actually ''need'' money. He only cares about making people ''know'' how powerful he is, to make up for how overlooked he feels in his regular life.]] |
| 300 | * GildedCage: [[spoiler:Part of his aspirations to be a great pirate are because his parents - the rulers of Vuundalla - practically keep him sheltered in their palace and unable to do much of anything.]] |
| 301 | * GoldFishPoopGang: He and his gang are the most commonly recurring antagonists in ''Young Jedi Adventures'', but ultimately pose very little threat to the main characters. |
| 302 | * HiddenAgendaVillain: From the heroes' point of view. To the Tanoo Younglings, Taborr doesn't seem to have any concrete motivations, and while he's out to prove himself as a pirate it's not clear why he's doing it or what he aims to achieve, with the end of "Team Up" having them outright deem him a bit of a mystery. As the other entries here show, that comes from them not knowing [[spoiler: how his true identity affects things.]] |
| 303 | * HiddenHeartOfGold: He is desperate to prove his worth as a pirate and won't tell you otherwise, but sometimes, will do the right thing. Despite their repeated conflicts, even Kai and his friends realize Taborr has some good points. [[spoiler:This is acknowledged by Yoda at the end of the first season, who can sense that there is a lot of conflict in Cyrus, but also a lot of great potential.]] |
| 304 | * HisOwnWorstEnemy: [[spoiler:As his MotiveRant towards Kai in the Season 1 finale suggests, he hates his life as Prince Cyrus because of how utterly impotent he feels as a royal due to his parents confining him to the palace all while they themselves neglect the needs of their own people. His self-loathing towards his life as Cyrus runs deep enough that he's genuinely dumbfounded to find the Younglings care about Cyrus as a person and prioritize his well being over other important things.]] |
| 305 | * IneffectualSympatheticVillain: The acts of piracy [[PokeThePoodle he commits]] are desperate attempts to gain recognition from the pirates of Yarrum Tower. However, he barely gets any respect for it. |
| 306 | * MyBelovedMinions: Despite frequently butting heads with them, he genuinely cares for Pord and EB-3. |
| 307 | * PetTheDog: Taborr has a soft spot for people in serious need, though it may take some doing to convince him that's the case. In "Off the Rails," he backs off of a heist even though he had actually won for once after learning that the supplies he intended to steal were going to people in need of homes and, similarly, [[spoiler: as Prince Cyrus he openly defies his parents in order to get the supplies needed to rebuild a destroyed village after a quake in "Aftershock."]] |
| 308 | * PokeThePoodle: Downplayed. As far as pirates go, Taborr is far from one of the worst the ''Star Wars'' universe has to offer (and during the part of the High Republic era in which he lives, that honor uncontestably goes to the Nihil). Most of his crimes amount to simple theft, and there's nothing indicating that he's killed anyone. |
| 309 | * RebelPrince: [[spoiler:He's secretly Prince Cyrus Vuundir living a double-life as a pirate.]] |
| 310 | * RoyalBrat: [[spoiler: Played with. When the Youngling's first meet Cyrus outside of his pirate identity he carries himself as a vain, snobbish prince insistent on getting his own way. However, once he sees his people suffering from the episode's crisis, he immediately drops everything to do what he can to help and shows himself to be a caring, if still brash and petulant, person. What's more, it isn't royal entitlement that drives him to be a pirate, but frustration that his royal life is so limited.]] |
| 311 | * ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: [[spoiler:In defiance of his parents keeping him confined in the Vuundalla royal palace, he decides to steal some of the palace's stable-building material to help a poorer outside village rebuild.]] |

| 359 | * AffablyEvil: For a feared pirate captain who occasionally goes by the nickname "[[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast the Blood Buccaneer]]", he seems a quite pleasant and agreeable enough fellow, and was willing to let both Finn and [[spoiler:Kix]] join his crew with minimal questions asked. |
| 360 | * BadassBoast: The quote above, which he states after surviving a series of catastrophes with no means of escape. |
| 361 | * BreakoutCharacter: His EnsembleDarkhorse status for having a cool design and a cool character in a story involving the Clone Wars as artifacts [[spoiler:and welcoming Kix to his crew]] have led to him and his crew getting at least one more story in ''Adventures''. [[spoiler:He even gets a background cameo in ''Film/TheRiseOfSkywalker''.]] |
| 362 | * TheCameo: Watch [[spoiler:the Resistance celebration at the end of ''Film/TheRiseOfSkywalker'' very carefully]], and his distinctive helmet is there. Wookieepedia confirms that it's him and not someone else wearing a similar helmet. |
| 363 | * CoolMask: He wears a red mask of Kaleesh origins. |
| 364 | * CrownOfHorns: His helmet has two protrusions on the side that resemble horns, though given its Kaleesh origins they were likely originally meant to accommodate and exaggerate that race's pointed ears. |
| 365 | * AFatherToHisMen: His men are loyal enough to him that they can understand his orders without him needing to speak. He was also willing to stay behind on a doomed ship when there weren't enough escape pods for his whole crew to escape in. |
| 366 | * HeelFaceTurn: He appears to have joined the Resistance [[spoiler: by the time of ''Film/TheRiseOfSkywalker'', if his presence at the climactic victory celebration on the base at Ajan Kloss is any indicator.]] |
| 367 | * HeroicSacrifice: In ''The Lost Treasure of Count Dooku'', when him and his crew are stuck on an exploding spaceship that doesn't have enough escape pods for everyone, Ithano stays behind [[TheMenFirst while his men escape.]] They all think he's dead, but they're shocked when he walks into their favorite bar, intact and carrying the treasure. |
| 368 | * TheMenFirst: When there aren't enough escape pods for all of them onboard a collapsing ship, Ithano [[HeroicSacrifice remains behind]] so his crew can escape. [[NoOneCouldSurviveThat He survives, though.]] |
| 369 | * NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Besides being known as the Crimson Corsair, Sidon is also called the Blood Buccaneer and Red Raider. He must really like [[AddedAlliterativeAppeal alliteration]]. |
| 370 | * NobleDemon: While a feared pirate and raider, he has a strong sense of honor and decency, and [[AFatherToHisMen cares enough about his crew]] to [[HeroicSacrifice give up his seat on the lifeboats]] for them when there's not enough for all of them escape an exploding spaceship. He's also no friend to the First Order, if his presence at [[spoiler:the Resistance victory celebration in ''Film/TheRiseOfSkywalker'' is anything to go by.]] |
| 371 | * NoOneCouldSurviveThat: At the end of "The Crimson Corsair and the Lost Treasure of Count Dooku", Ithano is on a ship that is eaten by a sandworm and then explodes on an extremely inhospitable planet. Three weeks later he walks back into the bar which his crew frequents with said exploding ship's memory core, which holds the locations of every Separatist base and factory in the galaxy, including a few hidden ones ripe for plunder. All of the crew except for Quiggold are amazed, although he does ask his captain how he survived. |
| 372 | * PetTheDog: In ''The Lost Treasure of Count Dooku'', he gets two big ones: when the crashed treasure ship starts collapsing around him and his crew, he first orders them to carry the unconscious [[spoiler:Kix]], who they've only just met, to safety instead of leaving him to die, and then [[HeroicSacrifice giving up his seat in the escape pods]] so his crew can make it to safety. |

Kragan still ends up being a villain to the end, as he attempts a mutiny with salvaged Super Battle Droids before he's finally ousted and ejected from the station. |
| 477 | * CoolShip: The ''Galleon'' is a barge that serves as a mobile base of operations for the Warbirds that resembles a classic maritime pirate ship cobbled together from old vehicle parts, much like the other Warbird vehicles. |
| 478 | * DealWithTheDevil: The Warbirds took a contract from the First Order to attack the ''Colossus'', in the hope of scaring the population into accepting their protection. When that failed, the Warbirds kidnapped Torra Doza, thinking the Order would use her as a bargaining chip to force Doza to surrender control of the platform. Of course, the First Order decided to [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness backstab the pirates once they had what they needed]], as part of their [[EngineeredHeroics PR campaign]] to look like heroes to the citizens of the Colossus. |

| 529 | * {{Expy}}: While a PlantPerson rather than a {{Cthulhumanoid}}, Shard's appearance and occupation nonetheless evoke Captain Davy Jones from ''Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean''. |
| 530 | * MoralMyopia: He accuses Greef of murdering his men, ignoring their culpability in the matter since they attempted to fire first after being given a chance to leave peacefully. |

| 550 | * EntitledBastard: As far as Vane is concerned, since Greef used some money he got from a job with Captain Gorian Shard to build his saloon, Shard's pirates can just march in and treat the place as they please, even after it's been converted into a school and Greef is offering them a drink elsewhere. |
| 551 | * EvilIsPetty: He and his men are willing to threaten Greef for denying them a drink in his old saloon, even though the building has long since been repurposed as a school. |
| 552 | * ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Once the rest of the gang's snubfighters are destroyed and Vane realizes their cruiser is crippled, he swiftly tells Shard that's its been a pleasure serving under him but that it's time to part ways and flees the battle. |
| 553 | * SoleSurvivor: Except for a handful of pirates on the ground who are captured, the rest of Shard's gang is killed by the Children of the Watch with only Vane escaping with both his life and freedom. |
| 554 | * UnderestimatingBadassery: Believing that Greef has "gone soft" from his days as guild leader when he associated with pirates, Vane tries to intimidate the High Magistrate.

| 566 | ---- |
| 567 | * BearerOfBadNews: All of his lines consist of informing Shard of his plan falling apart. |
| 568 | * BumblingSidekick and HypercompetentSidekick: Walks the line between the two. On the one hand, he quickly begins to panic and Shard has to repeat several of his orders(most of which only make things worse for the pirate crew), but on the other hand, he carries all of his boss' orders out successfully and even suggests some alternative options which would've been a safer and better approach(such as taking down Mando before organizing a counter attack, and fleeing instead of doing a SuicideAttack). |
| 569 | * {{Expy}}: He's a more competent and evil version of [[Film/PeterPan Mr. Smee]]. The biggest difference is the fact that the coxswain has no problem carrying out more evil orders, such as firing at innocent civillians and is much more competent at his job then Mr. Smee. |
| 570 | * GoingDownWithTheShip: Alongside Shard and the rest of the crew. |
| 571 | * HonestAdvisor: He suggests taking down Mando first before regrouping to organize a counter attack, and tells his captain that they have to leave whilst they still can, Shard refuses which leads to their deaths. |
| 572 | * KnowWhenToFoldEm / ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Suggest that they flee after Vane has abandoned them and they're down to their last engine. Shard decides to do a SuicideAttack instead. |
| 573 | * MookLieutenant: He's a random pirate who informs Shard of several key events. |
| 574 | * OhCrap: First when he sees the Mandalorian show up, then when he realizes the attack was a diversion, then when their engines start getting destroyed and finally when his captain orders to attack rather then flee. |

| 581 | ---- |
| 582 | [[folder:General]] |
| 583 | * BadassArmy: Have the capacity to be this when fully deployed and competently led -- the game’s rating system even ranks their cannon fodder as superior to their Imperial counterparts, and they make short work of a decently equipped Imperial garrison on Koboh. It’s {{Downplayed}} in the larger perspective, though, since they have nowhere near the resources to make full war on the Empire, and need Tanalorr as a sanctuary themselves. |
| 584 | * EliteMooks: Have a few of their own equipped with vibrio-hammers, and thanks to their utilization of old Separatist battle droids, they have the same cadre of elite henchman the CIS had: Magnaguards, BX-series Commando droids, and droidekas. The handful of lightsaber equipped and trained soldiers they have also qualify as this in the literary sense, though they’re more straight up bosses game-wise. |
| 585 | * EqualOpportunityEvil: Their ranks include a Gen'Dai, Mandalorians, and reprogrammed battle droids. |
| 586 | * FromCamouflageToCriminal: While their organic members are ordinary pirates (give or take the odd ProudWarriorRaceGuy), their droids are reprogrammed Separatist soldiers who still remember some of their old allegiances... and their old grudges. You'll sometimes hear them shouting Clone Wars-era slogans against you. |
| 587 | * MechaMooks: They have reprogrammed Separatist Battle Droids to serve as cannon fodder. |
| 588 | * ProudWarriorRaceGuy: They were founded by one of these, and are shaped by his ideals despite being mainly just an organised crime syndicate. Rayvis holds his people to 'the code', a loose honour system, and has gone out of his way to recruit other ProudWarriorRaceGuy lieutenants including several Mandalorians. |
| 589 | * SalvagePirates: They prey on salvagers and prospectors, and use stolen or self-salvaged gear to augment their arsenal, with their Lucrehulk fortress taking pride of place. |

| 600 | |
| 601 | ->''"A Jedi. Remind our friend here why his kind are supposed to be dead."'' |
| 602 | |
| 603 | An ancient warrior with a mysterious past and a strict code of honor; Rayvis leads the Bedlam Raiders in the years preceding the Galactic Civil War. |
| 604 | ---- |
| 605 | * AffablyEvil: A ruthless pirate and an even more vicious monster who craves battle above everything else, Rayvis is rather cordial and polite on a good day and is capable of being honorable and even friendly towards those who earn his respect. |
| 606 | * AlasPoorVillain: [[spoiler:He chooses to go out fighting over being torn in deciding which WorthyOpponent to follow, hence his decision to attack Cal, even after being defeated, hoping to get the warrior's death he desperately wanted for years. Cal has no satisfaction in cutting down Rayvis, with his death being framed in a somber tone.]] |
| 607 | * AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Purple skin with orange eyes. |
| 608 | * AxCrazy: He's got a vicious, bloodhungry streak and is very vocal when telling someone to be killed off should they disappoint him. In battle, he's an absolute monster capable of wrecking the environment if it means defeating and capturing his enemies. Still, he's a {{downplayed|Trope}} case as, despite the sheer brutality he is capable of inflicting, Rayvis is mentally well-adjusted in comparison to [[spoiler:Dagan and Bode]]. |
| 609 | * BaldOfEvil: He can't really help it as his species is congenitally hairless, but he's not a very nice guy. |
| 610 | * BaritoneOfStrength: He's got exactly the sort of deep, throaty growl you'd expect from a hulking alien brute like him. |
| 611 | * BizarreAlienBiology: As with all of his species, he has no bones, so his armor essentially serves as an artificial exoskeleton. |
| 612 | * BloodKnight: He lives only for two things - to aid those he is loyal to and to experience satisfying combat. Both Dagan and Cal first get his attention through their fighting skills, and his greatest ambition is to be on the front lines of another great galactic war. |
| 613 | * BrutishCharacterBrutishWeapon: His signature weapon suits both his strength and his savagery - it's a massive spiked mace with an extendable chain that also lets it serve as a flail. |
| 614 | * CombatSadomasochist: During his fight and once he takes a few lightsaber hits, Rayvis would muse about how exhilarating it is to feel a lightsaber's burn, claiming it to be a better feeling than getting hit by blaster shots. |
| 615 | * DeathSeeker: [[spoiler:Rayvis's greatest desire is to die an honorable death via combat against a powerful opponent. He expresses disappointment over how it took a group of Jedi to defeat him yet they refused to kill him. When defeated by Cal and even giving him the information needed for the latter to find Dagan and the compass leading to Tanalorr, Rayvis refuses any alliance with Cal, attacking him to force the Jedi into giving him exactly what he wanted.]] |
| 616 | * DefeatMeansFriendship: He swore loyalty to [[spoiler:Dagan]] after he defeated him in combat. [[spoiler:Once Cal bests him, he chooses to die a warrior's death rather than choose between two WorthyOpponents.]] |
| 617 | * TheDragon: [[spoiler:To Dagan Gera, who defeated Rayvis many years ago in single combat, which caused the Gen'dai to swear fealty to his victorious opponent, which incidentally makes Rayvis the most active threat to Cal thanks to his leadership of the Bedlam Raiders. In spite of his role, he and Dagan share a good friendship with one another.]] |
| 618 | * TheDreaded: He's a centuries-old Gen'Dai (a ProudWarriorRaceGuy species with legendary strength and durability) who became a bandit warlord and captured the mostly-intact wreckage of a battleship designed for solo planetary invasions. The inhabitants of Koboh treat him with all the respectful fear one might imagine they would. |
| 619 | * EpicFlail: He wields one that is made of a lightsaber-resistant alloy. |
| 620 | * ExploitedImmunity: His body is just a mass of tentacles with a HealingFactor, and the main reason he uses humanoid PoweredArmour is to bait his enemies into going for vitals that he just doesn't have. Impale him through the chest, and he'll just move his tentacles out of the way. Cut off his arm, and he'll just stick it back on. |
| 621 | * EvilIsBigger: Rayvis has a gigantic stature and is one of the largest sentient humanoid figures in the franchise. Of course, he's a bad guy. |
| 622 | * FaceDeathWithDignity: [[spoiler:He dies exactly like he wanted his death to be; being defeated by someone he would openly acknowledge as a worthy combatant. Although he screams in rage at Cal for his final attack, he sighs in resignation, content that he would go down a warrior.]] |
| 623 | * FightsLikeANormal: Like Durge before him, he prefers to fight like a humanoid in PoweredArmour rather than the cephalopoid StarfishAlien he really is. Unlike Durge, he even keeps at it after his armour is breached, forming humanoid limbs out of braided tentacles rather than letting them move freely. It appears to be part of his odd sense of honor as a ProudWarriorRaceGuy. |
| 624 | * GeniusBruiser: Don't let his hulking size and his occupation as the leader of a band of pirates fool you; Rayvis is much smarter and more intelligent than his appearance would suggest, with patience and diligence being one of his strong suits. |
| 625 | * HealingFactor: He's literally a walking cluster of regenerative tentacles. It's thankfully too slow to give him health regen during your boss fight against him, but it's enough to give him an ExploitedImmunity to injuries that would be crippling or lethal to any other creature. |
| 626 | * TheHeavy: Although [[spoiler:Dagan Gera]] is his master and thus, [[BigBad the main antagonist]] of ''Jedi: Survivor'', Rayvis is the most recurring threat that Cal deals with thanks to his role as the leader of the Bedlam Raiders and possessing a large swath of control over Koboh. While [[spoiler:Dagan is fought more times]], Rayvis's presence has more range with his pirates being the most recurring enemies Cal deals with. |
| 627 | * HiddenDepths: [[spoiler:His interactions with Dagan shows that he is more introspective than he shows himself to be, namely that he's become rather weary and dissatisfied for being in wars for so long, yet having nothing to be rewarded for and considering the idea of giving up his role as a pirate once Dagan relocates their forces to Tanalorr.]] |
| 628 | * HonorBeforeReason: If he hadn't given up [[spoiler:Dagan's]] plans after losing to Cal then Cal probably wouldn't have been able to stop him. However, Rayvis' personal code has him give Cal this information after being bested. He also could have lived if he had taken up Cal's offer to stop but again he wanted to die a warrior's death more than anything and so he continues to attack until Cal is forced to put him down once and for all. |
| 629 | * LargeAndInCharge: He's TheCaptain of the Bedlam Raiders, and he towers over the 5'11" Cal Kestis. |
| 630 | * LightningBruiser: In the second stage of his fight after he loses some armor he starts moving ''fast'' for a creature of his size and will clobber Cal into next week if he doesn't stay on his toes. |
| 631 | * LogicalWeakness: His HealingFactor is powerful, but he's no PerpetualMotionMonster - to grow something back, he needs to expend energy. Simple attrition is enough to eventually tire him out and make sure whatever you cut off stays cut off. [[spoiler:It's how Cal eventually defeats him, wearing him out until he can no longer stay standing.]] |
| 632 | * MadeOfIron: He can NoSell lightsaber strikes that are instant death to battle droids and stormtroopers. |
| 633 | * NobleDemon: Despite his savage nature, Rayvis possesses a code of honor and gives his opponents an opportunity to impress him, whether by defeating his minions or, even better, defeating Rayvis in a one-on-one match. To further the point, he prefers taking on a humanoid shape via his armor to give his opponents a better chance at fighting him [[spoiler:and he finds a warrior's death (as in getting killed in single combat) to be the most honorable way for someone like him to go out on]]. |
| 634 | * NormalFishInATinyPond: In practical terms, he's a warrior on par with (or slightly better than) the average Imperial Inquisitor who commands the approximate military strength of a grounded but fully-crewed Star Destroyer. That's a major deal on the Outer Rim, but a drop in the ocean compared to the might of the ''real'' Galactic Empire. [[spoiler:It says a lot that the arrival of Imperial colonisation forces on Koboh in the postgame of ''Survivor'' does far more to drive people away from the planet than the Bedlam Raiders ever did.]] |
| 635 | * NotAfraidToDie: He's a fanatical BloodKnight who believes that the possibility of his own death is an essential part of a satisfying fight. It says a lot about him that his head, the only part of him that can suffer lethal injury, is also the only part of him that he doesn't wear armor on. |
| 636 | * ObviouslyEvil: Giant stature, decked in heavy armor, is usually followed by a group of fearsome-looking soldiers, has sharp teeth, and wields a giant mace for a weapon... Rayvis is not subtle about being a villain. |
| 637 | * OneManArmy: It took a team of Jedi Masters to ''subdue'' Rayvis. And this was during the High Republic Era when the Jedi were at their strongest and most prosperous. This speaks volumes of just how powerful Rayvis is, helped by the fact that he is part of a species that is renowned for their power, regenerative abilities, and general tenacity. |
| 638 | * PoweredArmour: Implied. Given that he's basically just a big alien octopus squeezed into a suit of armour, it can be assumed that said armor includes a powered exoskeleton to help him look (and move) like a humanoid. It's purely for mobility and precision, though, not strength, as he demonstrates during his boss fight - losing his armour plating on his arm and relying on the tentacles beneath doesn't weaken him at all. |
| 639 | * ProudWarriorRaceGuy: He belongs to a species that gives Wookiees and Mandalorians a run for their money in this regard, and carries on their ideals in his interactions with Cal and [[spoiler:Dagan]]. |
| 640 | * Really700YearsOld: Part of a long-lived species, and the producers of ''Jedi Survivor'' have described him as being centuries old. |
| 641 | * ShadowArchetype: The ''Jedi Survivor'' producers have indicated that he is something of one to Cal Kestis. "A warrior knows a warrior." |
| 642 | * StarfishAlien: Don't let his PoweredArmour fool you - he's got more in common with an octopus than a human physiologically, and his 'limbs' are actually masses of tentacles. Among other things, this gives him a very handy ExploitedImmunity to attacks that would work on creatures with a humanoid anatomy. |
| 643 | * StrongAndSkilled: Begitting of a centuries-old warrior, Rayvis is incredibly strong thanks to a combination of using a brutish mace, his strange physiology providing him superhuman strength, heavy-decked armor for defense, and years of combat experience to make him a seasoned and skilled fighter. [[spoiler:Although he may not be the fastest foe, he's much more agile and reflexive than someone of his size, especially once he sheds off portions of his armor]]. Overall, he stands out as among Cal's strongest enemies for those reasons. |
| 644 | * SuicideByCop: [[spoiler:When Cal shows hesitance in killing Rayvis, he gets up and roars in anger, striking his mace at the Jedi several times in an attempt to force Cal into delivering the killing blow. He has a sigh of relief and satisfaction when he realizes Cal is about to cut him down for good.]] |
| 645 | * SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: To the ''Legends''' version of Durge - both are heavily-armoured Gen'Dai bounty hunters who have a particular enmity with Jedi, have some connection to the CIS (Durge was a Separatist general, while Rayvis leads a pirate band that makes extensive use of Separatist tech), and have enough proficiency in melee combat to fight Jedi to a standstill. Unlike Durge, however, he's perfectly willing to work alongside a Mandalorian, and is a NobleDemon and WorthyOpponent rather than a CardCarryingVillain psychopath. |
| 646 | * UncertainDoom: [[spoiler: He forces Cal to put him down, but the strike that Cal uses to do so doesn't look like it would be fatal to one of Rayvis's species unless they're {{Adaptational Wimp}}s.]] |
| 647 | * UndyingLoyalty: [[spoiler:Rayvis is honor-bound to Dagan Gera and sees him as a friend just as much as he does a WorthyOpponent. When Cal Kestis defeats him in the Shattered Moon, Rayvis concedes that Cal bested him and is worthy of his respect, he reaffirms his loyalty to Dagan even after Cal states that Rayvis should join Cal's side, clearly wanting to be given a warrior's death over being conflicted into choosing between two Jedi warriors he respects.]] |
| 648 | * VillainRespect: Develops one for Cal Kestis after seeing him best one of his lieutenants and asserting that he does look forward to fighting him one day, musing about missing the days of clashing against a Jedi. [[spoiler:He's more impressed about Cal defeating him if him revealing to him the information about the compass and Dagan's location is of any indication and is content in being killed by him, acknowledging Cal is a WorthyOpponent.]] |
| 649 | * VillainousFriendship: He has this with [[spoiler:Dagan Gera]]. While his oath to [[spoiler:Dagan]] is based around him being bested in combat, it's clear that the two see each other as friends and genuinely care about one another. Rayvis even briefly muses about giving up his life of endless conflict to go to Tanalorr with [[spoiler:Dagan.]] |
| 650 | * WarIsHell: [[spoiler:A very strange variation; Rayvis indeed [[BloodKnight enjoys combat more than anything else]], but during a conversation with Dagan, he confides that in the current age, wars have since become obsolete with little to nothing in the way of rewards and seems to be just tired of it. He even wonders if he might consider the idea of leaving behind his occupation once Dagan reaches Tanalorr.]] |
| 651 | * TheWormThatWalks: Gen'Dai are essentially walking bundles of nerves that are able to appear humanoid because of the armor they wear. |
| 652 | * WorthyOpponent: Rayvis is open to developing a sense of respect and praise for whoever shows considerable skill in combat and even more should they best him in combat, being impressed that Cal was able to defeat one of his lieutenants and wishing to fight him at another time. His loyalty to [[spoiler:Dagan Gera is based on the fact that the Jedi Knight defeated Rayvis in single combat, which impressed Rayvis enough to swear allegiance to him. He similarly has a similar feeling for Cal when he defeats him, but a combination of being loyal enough to his master and seeking a warrior's death causes Rayvis to attack Cal regardless, wanting to be killed by someone who defeated him fairly]]. |

| 700 | |
| 701 | A highly skilled warrior who caught Rayvis' attention and was trained personally by the leader of the Raiders. |
| 702 | ---- |
| 703 | * BloodKnight: His dialogue while dueling Cal shows that he is enjoying the fight and shares Rayvis' love of combat. |
| 704 | * DuelBoss: Fights Cal one-on-one to stop him from reaching Dagan Gera. |
| 705 | * EasyLevelTrick: Since he is just a recolored Bedlam Smasher with more HP, he has the same weaknesses that Smashers do: that being you can use Force Lift on him as long as it's upgraded. You can end the fight in less than 10 seconds by lifting him into the air and throwing him over the edge for a RingOut. |
| 706 | * PaletteSwap: He largely resembles a regular Bedlam Smasher but with golden armor rather than the regular rusted red. |
| 707 | * ThunderHammer: Wields a massive electrohammer in combat. His profile notes that unlike the regular smashers, Urgost views it as not a blunt instrument of death but the instrument he uses to make his "art". |
| 708 | * WorthyOpponent: Makes comments while fighting Cal that indicate he respects the Jedi's skill as a warrior. |

| 718 | ->'''Appearances:''' ''Literature/KindredSpirits'' | ''Literature/InfernoSquad'' |
| 719 | |
| 720 | A Pantoran pirate who is captain of the ''Opportunity'' and leader of the Blood Bone Order. She is a very capable fighter, and can even wield a lightsaber effectively due to having training with a sword. |
| 721 | ---- |
| 722 | * AffablyEvil: Although she is a pirate, she has a strict code against killing when not necessary, saves Asajj Ventress before knowing she is even useful to her, and is a genuinely cheerful and easy-going person. |
| 723 | * AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: She was elected leader of the Blood Bone Order due to being the toughest and smartest member, and in over two decades she has never been voted out of the position. |
| 724 | * BirdsOfAFeather: There is a good reason her story with Ventress is titled ''Kindred Spirits''. |
| 725 | * EveryoneHasStandards: She does not like killing when there are other options and takes great care to make sure that none of Hondo's men die when she and Ventress infiltrate his base, and forces Ventress to use stun blasts and non-lethal attacks on them. ''Inferno Squad'' reveals that she has cultivated her reputation as a bloodthirsty pirate so that her targets surrender quickly and she doesn't have to risk actual bloodshed. |
| 726 | * FacialMarkings: Averted: unlike other Pantorans, Lassa has no yellow tattoos on her face. Ventress asks her about her lack of tattoos, and Lassa explains that that it is due to her having no loyalty to anyone but herself and her crew. |
| 727 | * NoodleIncident: At some point she became acquainted with Saw Gerrera and his Partisans, after which she began supplying them with weapons and supplies. She continued to supply the Dreamers after Jedha instead of assisting the Rebel Alliance because she felt she owed it to Saw to help his few remaining followers in what time they had left. |
| 728 | * {{Pirate}}: She is a very successful and feared pirate, having apparently spread rumors about being ruthless and a BadBoss in order to scare her victims and competitors. |
| 729 | * RubberForeheadAlien: Aside from her blue skin, purple hair, and golden eyes, she looks human. |
| 730 | * UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: She was tricked by Gideon Hask and Del Meeko of Inferno Squadron into thinking they were members of the Partisans and took them to the Dreamers base on Jeosyn, which eventually lead to [[spoiler:the deaths of all the Dreamers]]. |

| 739 | -->''"The question is not if we're going to make any money, but how much and in what manner. We can use the extra cash to improve our vehicles and defenses."'' |
| 740 | |
| 741 | A male Dug that was the leader of the Dug pirate organization the Syvik Delegation, based on Galzez. When he and his pirates captured rebel Jedi Padawan Ezra Bridger, the base was destroyed by the Rebellion's ''Liberator'', which was commanded by a previous captive of theirs, Commander Jun Sato, during the rescue of Ezra Bridger. |
| 742 | ---- |
| 743 | * BullyingADragon: First they captured a rebel commander, then a Jedi Padawan with connections to the Rebellion. Neither of those sound like fun scenarios, considering the both of them escaped. |
| 744 | * AFoolAndHisNewMoneyAreSoonParted: Inverted. While the Syvik Delegation never successfully turns in Sato or Ezra and thus never receive their pay from the Empire, Rokeg lectures his men that no matter how much they make off of the bounty, they have to spend it wisely and save it for future useful investments. |
