* Pretty much every ''[[Star Wars]]'' game that allows the player to create the PC gives them at least an official gender (and species where applicable). The Exile from ''KOTOR 2'' is female, {{spoiler|Revan}} from ''KOTOR 1'' is male, Jaden Korr from ''Jedi Academy'' is a male human, and so on. The [[AFGNCAAPFeatureless Protagonist]] hero of ''X-Wing'' is revealed in a novella included with the Limited Edition to be Keyan Farlander, a human male from Agamar. The one from ''TIE Fighter'' is Maarek Stele, and he pops up very sporadically in other [[Expanded Universe]] material.
** ''[[Knights of the Old Republic]]'' generally uses the name of the hero's {{spoiler|original identity, Revan}} to refer to him, leading to a [[Late Arrival Spoiler]] situation in later games. The Exile's name is later stated to be Meetra Surik in [[Revan]], the book prequel to [[Star Wars: The Old Republic]].
** ''[[The Force Unleashed]]'' includes a variation on this: The main character is codenamed Starkiller (incidentally, the [[Mythology Gag|original last name of the Skywalkers]] in early ''Star Wars'' drafts) and his real name, as revealed in the books, but not (overtly) the games, is Galen Marek.
