==== '''The Sith Warrior''' ====
 
''"Korriban... the birthplace of my power. I arrived as a Sith Acolyte, trained in the Dark Side, and now an apprentice to a Sith Lord. My rage has purpose. I will hunt the Jedi... and destroy the Galactic Republic."''
Line 14:
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Can become quite the wisecracker, should you desire.
* [[The Dragon]]: Is effectively this to Darth Baras. {{spoiler|After Baras betrays you, the Warrior becomes this to the Emperor.}}
* [[Dragon Withwith an Agenda]]: If you so choose, which is more than likely.
* [[Dual-Wielding]]: A specialty of the Marauder advanced class.
* [[Expy]]: Of Darth Vader. Progress in a certain path and you'll be a full out [[Darth Vader Clone]].
Line 36:
* [[Talking Your Way Out]]: Yes, even this textbook example of a Blood Knight is capable of using this method.
* [[Unstoppable Rage]]: More-or-less the Sith Warrior's normal state of behavior.
* [[You Have Failed Me...]]: You'd better believe this comes up as an option now and then.
 
 
==== '''Vette''' ====
 
A Twi'lek female, Vette was separated from her her family at an early age and sold as a slave to series of minor crime lords. When Nok Drayen, a legendary pirate utterly destroyed her latest owners' holdings, Drayen gave Vette and the other slaves a choice of freedom or joining up with Nok; Vette agreed to become a pirate, traveling the known worlds and learning to get in and out of places she wasn't allowed.
 
Years later, after Drayen suddenly released all of his people from service, Vette was left on Nar Shaddaa, where she joined up with other young, idealistic Twi'leks, and used her criminal abilities to rob and ruin those who exploited Ryloth's cultural artifacts and people. An unquenchable spark, Vette is older than her years but far from mature, delighting in silly pranks and always ready to laugh at people who think too much of themselves.
 
Vette is a companion of the Sith Warrior, and a potential love interest for male characters. Mechanically, she is the Sith Warrior's ranged damage companion. Voiced by Catherine Taber.
Line 59:
* [[I Can't Believe a Guy Like You Would Notice Me]]
* [[Interspecies Romance]]: Usually and most commonly, since the player can't create a twi'lek sith warrior unless they've already reached level 50 with a twi'lek character on that server.
* [[Plot Armor]]: The Sith Warrior can casually kill a number of NPCs for behavior far less disrespectful than Vette's repeat dialogue. No explanation is ever given why the Sith Warrior would be remotely inclined to spare her for it, even when the warrior's other victims would be far more useful than Vette.
* [[Plucky Girl]]
* [[Shock Collar]] {{spoiler|If you marry her, you discover she kept it after you took it off, and apparently has [[Casual Kink|"ideas"]] for it's use..}}
Line 66:
* {{spoiler|[[You Are Too Late]]: She manages to track down her mother, but sadly her mother had died a few days before you arrive}}.
 
==== '''Malavai Quinn''' ====
 
A human male Imperial Operative recruited on Balmorra. Potential love interest for female Sith Warriors. Mechanically, he's the Sith Warrior's healer companion. Voiced by Richard Teverson.
 
* [[Always Onon Duty]]
* {{spoiler|[[The Atoner]]: For being Baras' mole.}}
* [[Badass Bookworm]]
Line 82:
* [[My Country, Right or Wrong]]: He's not a bad guy by any means, but he's a devoted Imperial patriot.
* {{spoiler|[[The Mole]]}}: {{spoiler|For Baras. He doesn't like it but does it anyway}}
* [[Officer and Aa Gentleman]]: Comes across as this.
* [[Reassigned to Antarctica]]: The reason why Quinn, despite being a clearly talented officer, is initially languishing on Balmorra. He disobeyed the direct orders of the incompetent Moff Broysc at the Battle of Druckenwell, turning what would have been a crushing defeat into a victory. For this he was court-martialed and it was only through Darth Baras intervention he wasn't dismissed altogether.
* [[The Stoic]]
* [[Unequal Pairing]]: His romance definitely has shades of this. As a non-Force-sensitive human, he's the Sith Warrior's social inferior in every way, and some of the dialogue embraces it.
** In one of his love letters, it was reveled that based on a study by the Imperial military, it shows that Sith and non-Sith relationships rarely turn out well. With the Sith partners 210% more likely to commit adultery, and non-Force users have a 32% increased mortality rate after marrying a Sith. But he is completely willing to accept the risk since he loves you so much.
 
==== '''Jaesa Wilsaam''' ====
 
A female human fallen Jedi Padawan {{spoiler|with the unique ability to sense an individual's true nature and pierce any deception}}, acquired after Alderaan. Notably, there are two distinct ways to recruit Jaesa Wilsaam, and the Sith Warrior's choice of how determines whether she is a renegade from the Jedi Order but still an adherent of the light side, or a true dark side Sith. Mechanically, she is the class's melee damage companion. Voiced by [[Rachael Leigh Cook]].
Line 109:
* [[Women Prefer Strong Men]]
* [[Worthy Opponent]]: Becomes one for the Republic if Light.
* [[Yandere]]: In one of her love letters to you, Jaesa admits that she planted a tracking device on you to see if you are cheating on her. It turns out that you have been loyal, and she express her disappointment that she will not get to hunt down and kill your mistresses.
 
==== '''Lieutenant Pierce''' ====
 
A male human Imperial Trooper, Pierce joined the Imperial military out of a lust for action rather than patriotism. Reckless and anti-authoritarian, Pierce has served in the Empire's special operations division and is recruited by the Sith Warrior on Taris. Minor romance option for female Sith Warriors. Mechanically, he is the class's ranged tank companion. Voiced by Adam Leadbeater.
Line 119:
* [[Captain Smooth and Sergeant Rough]]: Quinn as the Captain and Pierce as the Sergeant.
* [[Do Anything Soldier]]
* [[Friends Withwith Benefits]]: His romance with a female Warrior. Both parties seem purely in it for the sex.
* [[Military Maverick]]: His default personality and the central reason why he and Quinn don't get along.
* [[The Spartan Way]]: Imperial Special Forces.
* [[War Is Glorious]]
 
==== '''Broonmark''' ====
 
A Talz (big, furry, four-eyed alien with a distinct resemblance to a yeti) warrior who joins the Sith Warrior on Hoth. Mechanically, he's the Sith Warrior's melee tank companion.
Line 134:
* [[Proud Warrior Race Guy]]: Subverted. While the Talz are a [[Proud Warrior Race]], Broonmark's [[Blood Knight]] tendencies got him exiled.
* [[Strange Syntax Speaker]]: He refers to himself in the first person plural<ref>"we"</ref> and prefers to call people by their titles<ref>the Warrior is always called "Sith", for example</ref>
* [[Talk to Thethe Fist]]: Greatly prefers fighting to negotiating.
 
=== Supporting Characters ===
 
==== Supporting'''Darth CharactersBaras''' ====
== '''Darth Baras''' ==
 
The Sith Warrior's master. A surprisingly unambitious and impressively rational Sith Lord, Baras was an ambassador to Alderaan during the peace talks at the close of the war. He ''hates'' Jedi, viewing them as hateful hypocrites that betrayed their own beliefs. He was instrumental in the Treaty of Coruscant, according to his biography. Voiced by Jim McCance.
 
* [[Bad Boss]]: He makes a habit of sending the Warrior to kill off even loyal minions who he feels have [[You Have Outlived Your Usefulness|outlived their usefulness]]. {{spoiler|No points for guessing that this is foreshadowing for his eventual betrayal of the Warrior.}}
* [[Affably Evil]]
* {{spoiler|[[Bald of Evil]]}}
* [[Bad Boss]]: He isn't averse to killing minions, though he usually reserves it for when he feels there is no alternative and tries to make sure that his men die with dignity. On his [[Not So Stoic|bad days]], he's much, ''much'' worse.
* {{spoiler|[[Bald of Evil]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Big Bad]]: For the Sith Warrior storyline.}}
* [[Big Brother Worship]]: {{spoiler|Darth Ekkage}} thinks very highly and has nothing but praise for {{spoiler|Darth Baras}}.
* [[The Chessmaster]]
* [[Chronic Backstabbing Disorder]]: {{spoiler|He treats his minions as disposable tools, sends the Warrior and Draahg to kill his master Darth Vengean, betrays and tries to murder the Warrior, and finally tries to overthrow the Emperor.}}
* [[Cool Old Guy]]
* [[Dirty Coward]]: For all his bluster about his own vast power, Baras avoids directly confronting powerful Force users like Nomen Karr and {{spoiler|Darth Vengean}} like the plague. It is, in fact, why he recruited the Warrior in the first place.
* [[Evil Mentor]]
* [[Family Business]]: {{spoiler|Darth Ekkage}} comments that betraying {{spoiler|loyal minions}}, is a family tradition... not to mention being Sith.
* [[The Faceless]]: Though his mask is removed during his final scene in the storyline.
* [[Family Business]]: {{spoiler|Darth Ekkage}} comments that betraying {{spoiler|loyal minions}}, is a family tradition... not to mention being Sith.
* [[Fat Bastard]]
* [[Faux Affably Evil]]
* [[Large and In Charge]]
* [[Manipulative Bastard]]: He tried to use Dar'Nala's own machinations to sway Satele over to the Dark Side, but didn't succeed.
* [[Not So Stoic]]: He's normally rather composed and polite, though being a Sith Lord, [[Unstoppable Rage|he gets really scary when he's pissed off]], which can lead to [[Funny MomentMoments (Sugar Wiki)|This gem]] during the end of the prologue.
{{quote| '''Sith Warrior:'''I feel your anger, Master.<br />
'''Darth Baras:''' A Blind, Deaf, Comatose, Lobotomy Patient could feel my anger!<br />
'''Vette:''' Okay, I'm officially scared. }}
* [[Properly Paranoid]]: It depends. {{spoiler|If you play the Sith Warrior as a treacherous apprentice waiting to stab him in the back, then his decision to betray you is sensible. Of course, he still betrays you even if you're loyal.}}
* [[Smug Snake]]: Baras never misses an opportunity to remind those around him how powerful and cunning he is.
* [[The Spymaster]]
* {{spoiler|[[The Usurper]]: His ultimate plan is to take over the Empire by posing as the Voice of the Emperor.}}
Line 164 ⟶ 168:
* {{spoiler|[[Villainous Breakdown]]}}: {{spoiler|Suffers a really nasty one, changing from confident mastermind to screaming lunatic.}}
 
==== '''Darth Vowrawn''' ====
 
Darth Vowrawn is a charming and sophisticated elder statesman who has served on the Dark Council for decades--no small feat in the Empire, where the tenure of new council members is often measured in weeks. His passionate, almost hedonistic pursuit of challenge is well known among his peers, who have learned never to underestimate his cutthroat enthusiasm. Vowrawn revels in the game of conquest and Sith power plays, driven to euphoria by all the rich details of his favorite sport. Many upstart Sith have attempted to best Vowrawn over the years through a variety of strategies, from complex schemes to bluntly direct surprise attacks. Although some scored temporary victories, Vowrawn's talent for adjusting his strategy on the fly has left him the final victor in all these confrontations.
 
{{spoiler|He is the main antagonist to Baras during the third act. As such, he becomes your ally to access the Dark Council.}}
 
* [[Affably Evil]]: Oh, so much. He is polite, charming and funny. He is also a Dark Lord of the Sith.
* [[Bad Boss]]: Averted, HARD. He is probably the only Dark Council member to actually show any type of care for his soldiers and bodyguards. So much, that the first thing he says when you meet him is to spare them. {{spoiler|Because he thought you were still working for Baras and was sent to assassinate him}}.
* [[Beware the Silly Ones]]: He is a Dark Lord of the Sith. Hundreds of years old. And is a Dark Council member for just as much time. He might be funny and charming, but if he kept himself alive in a [[Chronic Backstabbing Disorder]] society like the Sith, and even achieved so much power, he is hardly someone to not beware.
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]:
{{quote| [[{{spoiler:|'''Darth Baras:''' Your champion is failing, Vowrawn. And you'll be next.<br />
'''Darth Vowrawn:''' Is that coming from your or the Emperor, Baras? Is hard to tell the difference.<br />
'''Darth Baras:''': Don't mock me, fop!]] }}}}
* {{spoiler|[[Evil Mentor]]: Becomes one to the Sith Warrior.}}
* [[Evil Sorcerer]]
 
==== Sith'''Lord InquisitorDraahg''' ====
 
== Sith Inquisitor & Companions ==
A Sith Lord who has served for several years as a protege to Darth Baras's boss, Dark Council member Darth Vengean. In fact, he is secretly one of Darth Baras's many apprentices, and has been using his position to feed intelligence about Vengean and his operations to Baras in preparation for the day when his master will strike.
 
* [[Bald of Evil]]: Not initially, but he's forced to rock this look after {{spoiler|the Warrior leaves him to burn}}.
* {{spoiler|[[Cyborg]]: After being rebuilt following his first fight with the Warrior.}}
* {{spoiler|[[The Dragon]]: To Baras, in Act 3.}}
* [[Faux Affably Evil]]: When you first meet him, he seems like the nicest Sith Lord since Zash, but {{spoiler|he's only pretending to like you as long as Baras wants you around. Once he's ordered to kill you, he starts acting like a complete [[Jerkass]] at every opportunity.}}
* [[Horrible Judge of Character]]: He honestly believes that {{spoiler|Baras is really the Voice of the Emperor}} and that {{spoiler|Baras would never, ever betray him the way he has the Warrior}}.
* [[Made of Iron]]
* [[The Mole]]: Within Vengean's power base.
* [[Rasputinian Death]]: {{spoiler|The Warrior reduces him to one hit point three times, then leaves him to burn alive. This fails to kill him and he pops up later as a cyborg, forcing the Warrior to behead him to make sure he stays dead.}}
* [[Smug Snake]]: Good God, yes. He makes Baras look positively modest. {{spoiler|In Act 3, you have to reduce him to one hit point three times in a row before it even occurs to him that he might lose to you.}}
* [[Walking Spoiler]]
* {{spoiler|[[We Can Rebuild Him]]}}
 
== Sith Inquisitor ==
 
=== Sith Inquisitor & Companions ===
 
==== '''The Sith Inquisitor''' ====
 
''"The true power of the dark side... it is claimed by many, yet known by few. My potential promises so much more. I know that treachery can break even the mightiest foe. And, for those who study its secrets, the Force offers... unlimited power..."''
Line 192 ⟶ 213:
* [[A Match Made in Stockholm]]: Romance option.
* [[Agony Beam]]: Force lightning can be used in conversation.
* [[The Apprentice (trope)|The Apprentice]]: The Inquisitor's storyline starts with him/her competing to become this to the Sith Lord Zash. "Apprentice" is even a title awarded to you once you manage it.
* {{spoiler|[[Awesome Moment of Crowning]]}}: {{spoiler|At the end of the Inquisitor's Class Quest, s/he is made a member of the Dark Council by the other members, who gives them a Darth name based on their Light/Dark Side rating (Darth Nox if Dark Side, Darth Occulus if neutral and Darth Imperius if Light Sided).}}
* [[Black Mage]]: The Sorcerer, if specced into the Lightning or Madness trees.
Line 206 ⟶ 227:
* [[Double Weapon]]: Assassins specialize in a double-bladed lightsaber.
* [[Evil Sorcerer]]: Naturally, especially the actual dark-side Inquisitors.
* [[Expy]]: The Sorcerer advanced class channels Palpatine and Count Dooku, while the Assassin is based on Darth Maul.
* [[Five-Man Band]]
** [[The Hero]]: The Inquisitor
Line 218 ⟶ 239:
* [[I See Dead People]]: Which is good, because the Inquisitor interacts with them a lot.
* [[Life Drain]]: One of the Inquisitor's abilities.
* [[Lightning Can Do Anything]]: The entire darkside Sorcerer is built around using lighting for all of life's challenges, from healing, to boss fights, to minor annoyances.
* [[Made a Slave]]: The class's backstory. Some NPCs will frequently remind the Inquisitor of this.
* [[Magic Knight]]: How the Assassin advanced class works.
Line 228 ⟶ 249:
* [[When All You Have Is a Hammer]]: There is no problem, in or out of combat, that cannot be solved with a liberal application of Force lightning (sensing a theme yet?).
 
==== '''Khem Val''' ====
 
The Sith Inquisitor's [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Dashade Dashade] manservant.
Line 236 ⟶ 257:
* [[Happiness in Slavery]]: His time with Tulak Hord.
* [[Human Popsicle]]: He was placed in stasis by Tulak Hord until the Inquisitor awakened him.
* [[I Fight for Thethe Strongest Side]]: He agrees to serve the Sith Inquisitor after s/he defeats him in combat. For now, anyway...
* [[I'm a Humanitarian]]: He's rumored to have devoured over a thousand Jedi in his lifetime. Dashade live for a ''long'' time, especially when cryogenic preservation is involved.
** [[Horror Hunger]]: Khem's hunger is never sated. He lives for feeding off of Force-users and, from some of his location comments, ordinary people as well.
Line 244 ⟶ 265:
* [[Sharing a Body]]: With {{spoiler|Lord Zash}} of all people!
* [[Tsundere]]: Type A in a very weird and non-romantic way. Don't get the wrong idea "Little Sith"... it's not that he likes you or anything, you're just a powerful Lord he can serve.
* [[Undying Loyalty]]: To Tulak Hord, his long dead former Master.
** At the end of his character missions, {{spoiler|He acknowledges you as the heir to Tulak Hord's legacy, and dedicates himself to serve you willingly, not just because you beat him.}}
 
==== '''Andronikos Revel''' ====
 
A human ex-pirate, attempting to hunt down the members of his mutinous former crew, and recruited on Tatooine. Potential love interest for female Sith Inquisitors. Mechanically, he's the class's ranged damage companion. Voiced by [[Steve Blum]].
Line 256 ⟶ 277:
* [[Dangerous Deserter]]: He used to be a Captain in the Republic Army until he chose to desert and turned to a life of piracy.
* [[Fire-Forged Friends]]: Obviously with the Inquisitor, but there's distinct offscreen bonding with Ashara. Judging from her offhand remarks, he's taken something of a big brother role.
* [[Gangsta Style]]: with [[Guns Akimbo]], either both sideways or cross-armed.
* [[Guns Akimbo]]
* [[The Gunslinger]]
* [[Guttural Growler]]
* [[I Call It Vera]]: Averted. He prefers not to name weapons, to avoid becoming too attached.
* [[The Mutiny]]: He was jettisoned in an escape pod after a smuggled Sith relic began to erode his crew's sanity. The Inquisitor finds him in the process of systematically tracking down and murdering said crew.
* [[Not in This For Your Revolution]]: While he started out with the Republic military, he has no personal stake in the war, nor any loyalty to either faction.
Line 269 ⟶ 290:
* [[Tattooed Crook]]: Sports a rather large tattoo on his face.
 
==== '''Ashara Zavros''' ====
 
A Togruta Jedi Padawan whom the Sith Inquisitor encounters on Taris, manipulates into falling from the Jedi Order, then guilts into joining the Inquisitor's band. Ashara is the token light-sider in the group and remains a dedicated adherent of Jedi principles despite her new company... initially, later embracing Sith principles while still adhering to a vision of hope and peace. Romance option for male Sith Inquisitors. Mechanically, she's the class's melee damage companion. Voiced by Azura Skye.
 
* [[Action Girl]]: She's a fallen Jedi who dual-wields lightsabers.
* [[The Apprentice (trope)|The Apprentice]]: Becomes one of two to the Inquisitor.
* [[Balance Between Good and Evil]]: Her general philosophy.
* [[Battle Couple]]
Line 299 ⟶ 320:
* [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]]: She wants to end the war between the Empire and Republic, and believes this can be achieved by creating mutual acceptance between the Jedi and Sith. She is also quite willing to be complicit in war crimes if she is convinced that this will advance the cause somehow. Revan would be proud.
 
==== '''Talos Drellik''' ====
 
A human male of the Imperial Reclaimation Service, the Empire's military branch that focuses on acquisition of long forgotten technologies, ancient artifacts, and Force history. A somewhat eccentric, though highly knowledgable and renowned archaeologist, Talos Drellik joins the Sith Inquisitor on Hoth. While lacking Force sensitivity, he has a tremendous passion for Sith history and information. He seeks knowledge for the simple sake of uncovering knowledge, and tends to brush off the notion that some things are just too evil or dangerous to learn about. Mechanically, he is the class's healer companion. Voiced by Edward Hibbard.
Line 307 ⟶ 328:
* [[Affably Evil]]: He's actually less threatening than Ashara for the most part. His major overt sin is seeking out knowledge, no matter the costs.
* [[Badass Bookworm]]
* [[It Belongs in Aa Museum]]
* [[Temple of Doom]]: He explores Sith tombs for a living.
 
==== '''Xalek''' ====
 
A male Kaleesh Sith Acolyte, and the Sith Inquisitor's Apprentice who joins on Korriban late in the story. Mechanically, he is the Inquisitor's ranged tank companion. Voiced by Tony Armatrading.
 
* [[The Apprentice (trope)|The Apprentice]]: The Inquisitor's Sith Apprentice.
* [[The Quiet One]]: Several characters, including the Inquistor, remark that he rarely says anything unless prompted for a response.
** [[Beware the Quiet Ones]]: When you get your first look at him, {{spoiler|Harkun}} tells you that he was left alone with two of the other apprentice candidates and killed them both in cold blood.
* [[The Rival]]: Averted. Despite the Inquisitor having two apprentices, there doesn't seem to any rivalry for his approval or philosophical disputes between them. They appear to simply ignore each other... although while idle on the Inquisitor's ship, Xalek seems to stalk in the passageway of the engine room where Ashara is.
 
=== Supporting Characters ===
 
==== Supporting'''Lord CharactersZash''' ====
== '''Lord Zash''' ==
 
A human Sith Lord who is trying to unlock the secrets of Tulak Hord's ancient artifacts. She takes the Inquisitor on as her apprentice. Voiced by Jen Cohn.
Line 332 ⟶ 353:
* [[Equal Opportunity Evil]]: She comes across as this. Most of the other Sith on Korriban will deride the slave-born (possibly alien) Inquisitor. However Zash seems to care for none of this, seeking only the most accomplished Acolyte for her apprentice. {{spoiler|Though she later admits that the real reason she asked for force-sensitive slaves train in the first place was due to a dream she had, showing that only the Inquisitor would be able to aid her in her research.}}
* [[Foil]]: To your first instructor, Harkun, who is a complete Jerkass.
* [[Klingon Promotion]]: {{spoiler|The Inquisitor's first task as Zash's apprentice is to murder her immediate superior, Darth Skotia. After his death, she manages to talk ''his'' superior into giving her the now vacant Darth title, the relic she was trying to obtain... and his larger office.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Mutually Exclusive Party Members]]}}: Of a sort with {{spoiler|Khem Val. Towards the end of Khem's character missions, the Inquisitor takes part in a ritual that ultimately decides which consciousness takes sole control of his body.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Sealed Evil in Aa Can]]}}: Her ultimate and final fate.
* [[Sharing a Body]]: With {{spoiler|Khem Val}}, but not intentionally. {{spoiler|She wanted the Inquisitor.}}
 
==== '''Lord Kallig''' ====
 
A Force Ghost (or sith equivalent) of an ancient, all-but-forgotten Sith Lord. He occasionally offers the Inquisitor advice.
Line 354 ⟶ 375:
* [[Spirit Advisor]]
* {{spoiler|[["Well Done, Son" Guy]]}}: Averted.
* [[What Happened to Thethe Mouse?]]: Once you've captured the {{spoiler|Sith Force Ghosts}} on Dromund Kaas, Kallig is dropped entirely from the plot. Granted he remarks about needing to conserve his power during the last appearance in Chapter 2, but you never are given the choice to absorb him or check back on the tomb. Furthermore, he doesn't make an appearance after you {{spoiler|earn a seat on the Dark Council}}: something he'd certainly have been proud of.
* [[Worthy Opponent]]: Tulak Hord considered him one.
 
==== '''Darth Thanaton (formerly Teneb Kel)''' ====
 
A Sith Lord who fought in the Great Galactic War. As an apprentice, he learned the ways of the Sith under Lord Calypho and was frequently accompanied by a male Abyssin slave named Maggot. After the arrest of Lord Calypho, Kel was sent on a mission by the Dark Council to hunt down the Emperor's traitorous apprentice, Exal Kressh. After the success of his mission, Kel returned to the Dark Council and demanded to be granted the title of Dark Lord and be renamed Darth Thanaton.
== '''Darth Thanaton (formerly Teneb Kel)''' ==
 
* [[Cutscene Power to Thethe Max]]: {{spoiler|Flying}} with Sith Lightning.
A Sith Lord who fought in the Great Galactic War. As an apprentice, he learned the ways of the Sith under Lord Calypho and was frequently accompanied by a male Abyssin slave named Maggot. After the arrest of Lord Calypho, Kel was sent on a mission by the Dark Council to hunt down the Emperor's traitorous apprentice, Exal Kressh. After the success of his mission, Kel returned to the Dark Council and demanded to be granted the title of Dark Lord and be renamed Darth Thanaton.
 
* [[Cutscene Power to The Max]]: {{spoiler|Flying}} with Sith Lightning.
* [[Hidden Depths]]: For all his obvious faults, there was more to Thanaton than was openly revealed during the story. If you remained respectful to him during the various conversations (and showed respect for the ideal Sith Code), he would show begrudging respect towards you, even indicating he regretted the mutual conflict. Before and after his death, several Sith would comment Thanaton was even admirable.
* [[Hypocrite]]: Disparages the Inquisitor's background as a slave on a few occasions, despite having been one himself before becoming an apprentice. More egregious is his fleeing of the Kaggath arena on Corellia, a violation of the vaunted Sith tradition he so vocally supports. Fleeing the battle is forfeiting, forfeiting is defeat, defeat is death. And then on Korriban he claims that the Kaggath is a sacred rite. Really? Sacred? Then do your duty, protect Sith tradition by killing yourself.
Line 370 ⟶ 390:
* {{spoiler|[[This Cannot Be!]]}}: {{spoiler|His final words are essentially this.}}
 
=== Imperial Agent ===
 
=== Imperial Agent & Companions ===
 
==== '''The Imperial Agent (Cipher 9)''' ====
 
''"Controlling an empire takes more than raw power. It takes discipline, focus, and precision. Threats must be dealt with quickly and quietly. This is the mission of Imperial Intelligence. As the Empire's most elite agent, I will trace the line between truth and treachery. And I will ensure the Empire achieves galactic domination."''
Line 379 ⟶ 400:
A member of Imperial Intelligence fresh out of training, the Agent is sent to Hutta to persuade the crime lord Nem'ro the Hutt to side with the Empire. As a member of Imperial Intelligence, the Agent's goal to ensure that the Empire is victorious over the Republic, although some Agents have their own agendas. The female Imperial Agent is voiced by Jo Wyatt. The male Imperial Agent is voiced by Bertie Carvel.
 
* [[Anti-Villain]]: It can be argued that a light-side Agent is too nice to qualify for being a [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]].
* [[Badass Longcoat]]: Agents in promotional trailers are often depicted wearing one; players can obtain one as early as the Black Talon flashpoint, and since it's moddable they can keep it useful for ages.
* [[Badass Normal]]: The class was inspired by the question of what kind of non-force user could be considered to be equal in the Imperial hierarchy to the Sith player characters. Later on, the Agent is indeed capable of taking on Jedi and Sith Lords.
Line 388 ⟶ 409:
* [[Combat Pragmatist]]: It shouldn't come as a surprise for a class that sneaks up behind people and stabs them or shoots them in the head before they can fight back, but in the cutscenes when fighting powerful Jedi the Agent usually has to use a trick or two to get the upperhand.
* [[The Dragon]]: Can become one to {{spoiler|Darth Jadus}}.
* [[Evil Brit]]: Depends on how Evil you play the Agent though.
* [[Expy]]/[[Composite Character]]: Of Grand Moff Tarkin and [[James Bond]].
** Or a non-force sensitive [[Star Wars Expanded Universe|Mara Jade]].
Line 412 ⟶ 433:
* [[Pre-Mortem One-Liner]]: Before shooting a stumbling Jedi Master Berin Fraal into a pit of hazardous chemicals, the Agent gives off a pithy "Watch you step, Jedi."
* [[Really Gets Around]]: The Agent has the most one night stand options of all the classes.
* [[Secret Police]]: When you are operating inside the Empire's boarders, your missions are to ensure stability of the imperial government by fighting internal dissidents and terrorists.
* [[Shoot the Dog]]: Is often ordered to take morally questionable actions to defend the Empire. Light side options usually involve subverting this.
* [[Take Cover]]
* [[Talking Your Way Out]]: There are many situations where The Agent is outnumbered and outgunned, but the proper conversation option can turn the odds back in The Agent's favor, making some fights a lot easier, or allowing you to skip fighting entirely.
* [[Too Dumb to Live]]: One of the more amusing ways to play the Agent, and there are a surprising number of dialogue options to support it. By way of example, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4LghZc1dM8A&list=UU36qgbpsux8r2UUQEOBej4w&index=3&feature=plcp a scene on Hutta involves the Agent meeting an informant who tells him/her to walk away quietly so as not to attract attention.]
{{quote| '''Imperial Agent:''' Oh, I understand -- you work for Keeper, too!<br />
'''Informant:''' ...you're an idiot. }}
* {{spoiler|[[Unperson]]}}: {{spoiler|In the ending, Keeper gives the Agent the chance to erase his/her identity via the Black Codex in order to serve the Empire without the need to answer to anyone.}}
* [[The Vamp]]: Female Agents can become one.
* [[Wide -Eyed Idealist]]: One of the ways the class can be roleplayed. [[Silly Rabbit, Idealism Is for Kids|Keeper disapproves]].
** [[Blood Knight]]: Hilariously, [[Pragmatic Villainy|Keeper also objects]] if the player goes in the ''opposite'' direction, as well.
* [[Worthy Opponent]]: Possibly to {{spoiler|Darth Jadus}}.
Line 430 ⟶ 451:
** When infiltrating the SIS, the Agent is given the codename "Legate".
 
==== '''Kaliyo Djannis''' ====
 
A female Rattataki and companion to the Imperial Agent, Kaliyo is an anarchistic freelance criminal, known to associate with three individuals named Anspi'shel, Nohn Veyaiko, and The Wheezer. Potential love interest for male Imperial Agents. Mechanically, she's the class's ranged tank companion. Voiced by Tasia Valenza.
Line 446 ⟶ 467:
* [[Manipulative Bastard|Manipulative Bitch]]
* [[Meaningful Name]]: She's [[Consummate Liar|two-faced]], and her name is Djannis. It's not ''spelled'' [[Greek Mythology|Janus]], but it's pronounced the same way.
* [[Only in It For Thethe Money]]: Being an anarchist, she's only associating with Imperial Intelligence because Keeper offered her a small fortune. If you get her approval high enough, she decides to stick around because you're fun.
* [[Rebel Relaxation]]: Her pose aboard the ship.
* [[The Vamp]]
 
==== '''Vector Hyllus''' ====
 
A male human Imperial diplomat who was assimilated by a Killik hive as a Joiner and subsequently recruited by the Imperial Agent on Alderaan. Holds the position of Dawn Herald, an advanced scout and diplomat of the Killik and thus granted greater autonomy and individuality than most Joiners. Love interest for female Imperial Agents. Mechanically, he's the class's melee damage companion. Voiced by Ifran Meredith.
Line 461 ⟶ 482:
* [[Verbal Tic]]: Refers to himself in the plural, using We instead of I. Also tends to speak a [[AcCENT Upon the Wrong SylLABle|little disjointedly]], much like, but not exactly like, the [[Half Life|G-Man]]. It's enough to add to his bizarreness, but not enough to really distract.
 
==== '''Doctor Eckhard Lokin''' ====
 
A male human biochemist formerly affiliated with Imperial Intelligence, Dr. Lokin's agenda and past are a mystery to most. By far his most remarkable - and disturbing - development is his ability to shapeshift between human and rakghoul form. The Imperial Agent recruits him on Taris. In his human form he is a healer companion, while in his rakghoul form he focuses on melee damage. Voiced by Anthony Cochrane.
Line 475 ⟶ 496:
* [[Voluntary Shapeshifting]]
 
==== '''Ensign Raina Temple''' ====
 
Raina Temple is an enigma: a human raised among Chiss and a member of the Chiss military. {{spoiler|She is actually the Force-sensitive daughter of Imperial Intelligence agents who sent her to be raised by the Chiss when she was discovered to be Force-sensitive rather than have her be taken by the Sith.}} She is recruited on Hoth. Romance option for male Imperial Agents. Mechanically, she is the class's ranged damage companion. Voiced by Georgia Van Cuylenberg.
Line 484 ⟶ 505:
* [[My Country, Right or Wrong]]: She mostly supports Light Side decisions except when they involve opposing the Empire and/or the Sith.
* [[Unequal Pairing]]: Male agents can romance her despite being her superior. She even continues to call you "Sir" after being married.
* [[Wide -Eyed Idealist]]: She is in many ways a victim to the Imperial policies of {{spoiler|forcing all force sensitive children to be taken from their families and be trained in the Sith Academy}}, but she is still very patriotic and loyal to both the Sith and the Empire
 
==== '''Darth BarasSCORPIO''' ====
 
== '''SCORPIO''' ==
 
A female-looking assassin droid and a companion character for the Imperial Agent. "Recruited" by the Imperial Agent on Belsavis, not that she likes it at all. Mechanically, she's the Agent's melee tank companion. Voiced by Deborah Unger.
Line 494 ⟶ 514:
* [[Catch Phrase]]: Did you know that SCORPIO was designed for "heuristic self-improvement?" No? Good, because she'll keep telling you.
* [[Creepy Monotone]]
** YMMV, of course. She's somewhere on the scale near [[Portal (Video Gameseries)|GLaDOS's]] creepy/sexy monotone.
* [[Defeat Equals Friendship]]: If you define 'friendship' as programming that won't allow you to purposefully harm someone.
* [[FemBot]]
Line 504 ⟶ 524:
* [[Tsundere]]: ...sort of. It's rather hard to describe. She'll casually talk about killing you, but responds very well to complements and gifts with what appear to be sincere thankfulness and appreciation. She is just largely unconcerned with you, treating you with equally neutral disdain and politeness, until you reach full affection and her last conversation, wherein she has come to respect you.
 
=== Supporting Characters ===
 
==== '''Keeper/{{spoiler|Minister of Intelligence}}''' ====
== Supporting Characters ==
== '''Keeper/{{spoiler|Minister of Intelligence}}''' ==
 
The head of Imperial Intelligence. A ruthless and pragmatic man who is only known by his codename. He has managed to maintain his position for over a decade, a difficult accomplishment considering [[Bad Boss|his employers]]. Voiced by Francis Guinan.
 
* [[Anti-Villain]]: Type I. He's not a particularly nice man by any means, but he cares for his agents as individuals, and his disapproval of Light Side agents comes from the fact that he thinks they're [[Wide -Eyed Idealist|naive and going to be broken]]. {{spoiler|Just before the finale he expresses regret for the things hes done in service to the Sith, and states he never lost sight of his goal to make the Empire a better place.}}
* [[Bald of Evil]]
* [[EverybodyEveryone Calls Him "Barkeep"]]: His real name is classified, so he is referred to by his code name, "Keeper". {{spoiler|Upon his promotion he becomes known simply as the Minister of Intelligence.}}
* [[Evil Brit]]: Although whether he is truly evil is up for debate, he is still on the "bad" side.
* [[Hypercompetent Sidekick]]: A lot of Imperial Intelligence's work involves cleaning up the messes made by some of the more reckless Sith. While Keeper is not particularly fond of the Sith, he is at least careful enough to try and avoid getting on their bad side.
* [[Noble Demon]]: He tends to avoid doing evil things unless directly forced into it by the Sith. His ruthless reputation seems to be the image hes cultivated for himself to survive in his position.
* [[Put Onon a Bus]]: {{spoiler|After Chapter 1, he gets promoted to Minister of Intelligence and his duties are taken over by the former Watcher Two.}}
** [[The Bus Came Back]]: {{spoiler|In Chapter 3, things have gotten dire enough that he starts to intervene again.}}
* [[Pragmatic Villainy]]: A fairly practical man who dislikes senseless acts of villainy. Also, he only disapproves of the Agent trying to be an idealist because he doesn't want the Agent to be traumatized by the line of work.
Line 524 ⟶ 544:
* [[The Spymaster]]
 
==== '''Watcher Two''' ====
 
A data analyst of Imperial Intelligence. She is the product of an Imperial eugenics program designed to create the ultimate data analyst. She serves as mission control for the Agent. A minor romance option for male Agents. Voiced by Mary Stockley.
 
* [[Defrosting Ice Queen]]
* [[Designer Babies]]: She is a product of the Empire's eugenics program.
* [[Fantastic Racism]]: Seems to be uncomfortable about aliens. Especially Kaliyo. Then again, she has no problems with the Agent.
* {{spoiler|[[Reasonable Authority Figure]]}}: {{spoiler|After being made Keeper.}}
* [[Unequal Pairing]]: {{spoiler|Subverted. She dumps you after she gets promoted to prevent the problems that would arise from this.}}
* [[Voice Withwith an Internet Connection]]
 
==== '''Darth Jadus''' ====
 
[[File:Darth-Jadus-001_6526.png|frame]]
Line 542 ⟶ 562:
 
* [[Abusive Parents]]: {{spoiler|Zhorrid is little more than a disposable pawn to him. If you kill her on his behalf, he admits that he can't use the Force to tell if she's dead because doing so would require that he have an emotional attachment to her. In other words, he felt nothing for her.}}
** Also, according to Zhorrid, as a young girl he had her attend intense singing lessons. When she gave a public performance she sang until her throat was damaged and she could no longer sing anymore. She then saw her father smile and soon after was made his apprentice.
* [[Bad Boss]]: The [[Establishing Character Moment|very first thing]] you see him do is deliver a tongue lashing to Keeper, in which he brags that he made the Minister of Intelligence cry like a small child and threatens to do the same to Keeper if Intelligence doesn't shape up. Later, he orders the Agent to [[Kneel Before Zod|kneel before him]] and shocks them comatose if they refuse. {{spoiler|Later subverted if the Agent becomes [[The Dragon]] for him, as he never mistreats or betrays them and he uses his influence to smooth over some rough spots for them. In fact, he's arguably the best of all the Sith Lord employers/patrons from the Imperial class stories.}}
* [[A God Am I]]: Acts like he's some sort of higher being than everyone else.
* [[Badass Boast]]: He has quite a few.
 
"Everything that has transpired has been at my command. My will is the destiny of lesser men."
 
* [[The Blank]]
* {{spoiler|[[The Chessmaster]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Climax Boss]]}}
* [[Cool Mask]]
* [[Creepy Monotone]]: He never, ever raises his voice.
* [[Cutscene Power to the Max]]: {{spoiler|Bring Kaliyo to the big confrontation with Jadus at the end of Chapter 1 and she tries to shoot him in the back. Jadus simply teleports out of the way. Luckily, he can't do that if you choose to fight him.}}
* [[Dark Messiah]]: He sees himself as a new messiah for the Sith Empire. {{spoiler|Side with him, and he uses his dramatic "resurrection" and the public adulation from stopping the Eradicators to create what is essentially a Sith Revivalist movement.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Diabolical Mastermind]]}}
* [[Different As Night and Day]]: While Jadus is emotionless and calculating, his daughter Darth Zhorrid is a [[Faux Affably Evil]] [[Cloudcuckoolander]].
* [[The Dreaded]]: ''Everyone'' (except Kaliyo) is scared of Darth Jadus. {{spoiler|If the Agent becomes his Hand, several conversations can be pushed to a more favorable outcome by dropping his name and watching even hardened Sith Lords quail in terror.}}
* [[Enigmatic Minion]]: Nobody knows much about him, not even his Sith colleagues. In fact, he was uninterested in concerning himself with the squabbles and power struggles so common among his people, instead focusing his influence on the Imperial Intelligence network. Couple that with his tendency to contract outsiders who had earned their own reputations for intelligence missions rather than other Sith, and he's inadvertently fostered a sense of unease and distrust among his peers.
* [[Enemy to All Living Things]]: His Dark Side power is so intense that prolonged exposure to his simple physical presence is enough to drive men mad.
* [[Enigmatic Minion]]: Nobody knows much about him, not even his Sith colleagues. In fact, he was uninterested in concerning himself with the squabbles and power struggles so common among his people, instead focusing his influence on the Imperial Intelligence network. Couple that with his tendency to contract outsiders who had earned their own reputations for intelligence missions rather than other Sith, and he's inadvertently fostered a sense of unease and distrust among his peers.
* [[Evil Brit]]
* {{spoiler|[[Fake Ultimate Hero]]}}: {{spoiler|If you side with him, he rides in to save the Empire from the Eradicators (which he created and controls) and uses the resulting public adulation to cement his control of the Dark Council.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Faking the Dead]]}}
* [[A God Am I]]: Acts like he's some sort of higher being than everyone else.
* [[Killed Off for Real]]: Supposedly dies from a terrorist attack. His daughter replaces him as a member of the Dark Council.
* [[Kneel Before Zod]]: Orders the Agent to kneel before him. Defiance comes with a dose of Force Lightning.
* {{spoiler|[[The Man Behind the Man]]}}: {{spoiler|To the Eagle.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Mole in Charge]]}}: {{spoiler|He is the Dark Council member in charge of Imperial Intelligence...and also the secret patron of the Eagle terrorist network.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Offing the Offspring]]}}: {{spoiler|If the Agent sides with him, the Agent is ordered to kill Zhorrid so Jadus can reclaim his seat on the Dark Council.}}
* [[Person of Mass Destruction]]: According to Watcher Two, his Force power is second only to [[Physical God|the Emperor]] and he could take on an entire army singlehandedly if he wanted to.
* [[The Spymaster]]
* [[The Stoic]]: He never shows a single sign of emotion.
* {{spoiler|[[Talking the Monster Toto Death]]}}: {{spoiler|The Agent can convince him that his plan is doomed for failure, upon which [[Know When to Fold'Em|he'll willingly give up on his own terms]] and states that he now both [[Worthy Opponent|despises and respects you.]]}}
* [[Tranquil Fury]]: Even when he's so pissed that {{spoiler|the bridge of his Star Destroyer starts to ''shake''}}, you'd never know it to hear him speak.
* [[Ubermensch]]: "Herald of a new era." {{spoiler|This new era is one in which all Imperial citizens are united through terror.}}
* [[Walking Spoiler]]: Look at all the pretty white spaces.
* {{spoiler|[[Xanatos Gambit]]: Jadus pulls one off on the Agent at the climax of Chapter 1. Jadus has half the codes to his super weapon, and the Agent has the other half. If the Agent refuses to enter his codes, the weapons will fire randomly and kill millions. If the Agent enters his codes to disarm the weapon, Jadus will then have the codes and simply kill the Agent and reactivate the weapon. Either way, Jadus wins, unless the Agent can figure out how to [[Take a Third Option]].}}
 
==== '''The Eagle''' ====
 
An anti-Imperial terrorist who was considered to be of little consequence by Imperial Intelligence until his organization destroyed the flag ship of Darth Jadus, killing the Dark Councilor and over 3,000 people who were on board the ship. The Agent's first task upon being made a Cipher Agent is to destroy his organization. Voiced by Simon Templeman.
Line 568 ⟶ 606:
* [[Evil Brit]]
* [[In the Hood]]: His costume for his public broadcasts is the same type of hood that sneaky enemy types wear.
* {{spoiler|[[Taking You Withwith Me]]}}: {{spoiler|He uses a detonator to blow himself up after being defeated. The Agent is unharmed, but is knocked out for a few hours.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Unwitting Pawn]]}}: {{spoiler|To Darth Jadus}}
 
==== '''Ardun Kothe''' ====
 
A 54 year old human spymaster {{spoiler|and former Jedi}} for the Strategic Information Service, the Republic's counterpart to Imperial Intelligence. He specializes in converting enemy agents into friends and creating subversion and rebellion. Much of his past is unknown, as is how he came to lead an SIS unit. The Republic believes he is the key to winning the war, and Imperial Intelligence dispatches the Agent to ensure they aren't right.
 
* [[Apologetic Attacker]]: He apologizes to the the Agent for his actions and even states he hopes he'll be held accountable some day.
* [[The Atoner]]: Someday. For now he has a war to win. {{spoiler|If you let him go, then he decides to become one anyway.}}
* [[Necessarily Evil]]: Kothe sees his actions as this.
Line 584 ⟶ 622:
* [[Worthy Opponent]]: Imperial Intelligence views him as this, which is why they sent The Agent after him in the first place. {{spoiler|If you tell him that you've been waiting to fight him, he admits that he feels the same way.}}
 
==== '''Hunter''' ====
 
The codename of a member of Ardun Kothe's SIS cell. Hunter is a ruthless agent who has a bizarre hatred for Cipher Nine.
Line 599 ⟶ 637:
* {{spoiler|[[Samus Is a Girl]]}}
* [[The Sociopath]]
* [[Token Evil Teammate]]: To Kothe. Not only is he by far the most ruthless member, {{spoiler|unlike the rest of the cell, he has no qualms about brainwashing the Agent.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Tyke Bomb]]}}
* [[Worthy Opponent]]: Sees the Agent as this.
 
==== '''The Star Cabal''' ====
 
A mysterious organization that the Agent comes into conflict with.
Line 616 ⟶ 654:
* [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]]: {{spoiler|The Cabal was founded in the aftermath of the Great Hyperspace War to prevent another war between the Jedi and Sith. To accomplish this, the Cabal kidnaps or kills anyone who takes an action that would lead to the Republic's rediscovery of the Empire. When this failed, they decided to trick the two sides into wiping one another out so they can rule the galaxy themselves. They claim that once this is done, the galaxy will be freed from the tyranny of force users.}}
 
==== '''Watcher X''' ====
 
A product of an Imperial eugenics program. The individual codenamed Watcher X was a member of Imperial Intelligence until he was deemed unstable and sent to the Empire's Shadow Town prison on Nar Shadaa. He is ordered to help the Agent with their business on Nar Shadaa. Voiced by Nicholas Boulton.
Line 632 ⟶ 670:
* {{spoiler|[[Spirit Advisor]]}}
* [[The Stoic]]
* [[Voice Withwith an Internet Connection]]: On Nar Shadaa.
 
==== '''Darth Zhorrid''' ====
 
The daughter of Darth Jadus, Zhorrid is insane even by the standards of the Sith. She succeeds her father as a Dark Councillor after his sudden assassination.
 
* [[Zero-Percent0% Approval Rating]]: The only reasons she's on the Dark Council is because the other Councilors believed that she knew Jadus' secrets. When it becomes apparent that she doesn't, she loses all of her political clout. Even Keeper, who makes a habit of not judging the Sith, is not afraid to call her insane.
* [[The Caligula]]
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: A dark version of this trope.
Line 646 ⟶ 684:
* [[We Have Reserves]]: She sends her bodyguards to kill the Agent upon their first meeting as a test of the Agent's strength.
 
=== Bounty Hunter ===
== Bounty Hunter & Companions ==
 
=== '''The Bounty Hunter''' & Companions ===
 
==== '''The Bounty Hunter''' & Companions ====
 
''"The only law in this galaxy is the one a man makes for himself. The Sith may say otherwise, but even the Empire's reach has limits. That's why they hire bounty hunters. If you've earned a death mark, we'll be seeing each other... real soon. Don't let it go to your head, though. To me, you're just another job."''
 
A freelance gun for hire who attracted the attention of a legendary retired bounty hunter named Braden, the Bounty Hunter's story begins with gaining entry into the Great Hunt, a deadly competition of the galaxy's greatest bounty hunters organized by the Mandalorians, then entering the competition. The male Bounty Hunter is voiced by Tom Spackman. The female Bounty Hunter is voiced by [[Grey DelisleDeLisle]].
 
* [[Badass Normal]]: No Force sensitivity here, just moxie and a lot of equipment.
Line 659 ⟶ 698:
* [[Bring It Back Alive]]: Occasionally asked to bring in the target alive if possible, via carbonite freeze ray.
* [[Consummate Professional]]: The neutral Bounty Hunter.
* [[Continuity Nod]]: On Hutta, you get the chance to [[Counting to Three|slowly count to three]] before blasting a Rodian giving you attitude. Just like [[Knights of the Old Republic (Videovideo Gamegame)|Calo Nord's]] [[Establishing Character Moment]].
* [[Dude, Where's My Respect?]]: Most characters are skeptical of the Bounty Hunter's skill early on, but this disappears as the Bounty Hunter builds a reputation.
* [[Expy]]: The Powertech is Boba Fett, while the Mercenary is Jango Fett.
Line 673 ⟶ 712:
* [[Guttural Growler]]: If male.
* [[Harmless Freezing]]: On Dromund Kaas, the Bounty Hunter received a carbonite freeze ray to take marks alive.
* [[Hitman Withwith a Heart]]: The light-side Bounty Hunter.
* [[The Hunter Becomes the Hunted]]: The Bounty Hunter has to draw out their target on Nar Shaddaa, a feared assassin, by making the target come after the Bounty Hunter.
* [[It's Personal]]: {{spoiler|Janarus earns himself a spot on the Bounty Hunter's shit list after decrying him/her publicly.}}
* [[Kill It Withwith Fire]]: Has a flamethrower. Powertechs in particular gain a wide range of flame-based attacks.
* [[Lightning Bruiser]]: Powertechs. Heavy armor, shields, and can use their jetpack to rocket into combat.
* [[No Fame, No Wealth, No Service]]: The Bounty Hunter's reception by the nobles on Alderaan.
* [[Only in It For Thethe Money]]: Can certainly be played like this.
* [[Proud Warrior Race Guy]]: Light-side options often emphasize a sense of honor, and the Bounty Hunter can join the Mandalorians.
* [[Psycho for Hire]]: The dark-side Bounty Hunter.
Line 687 ⟶ 726:
* [[Young Gun]]: Can come across as this on Hutta and Dromund Kaas, but the Bounty Hunter comes across as an experienced professional afterwards.
 
==== '''Mako''' ====
 
The first chronological companion character for the Bounty Hunter, Mako is a human female hired by Braden to provide intel and tech for those participating in the Great Hunt. Romance option for male Bounty Hunters. Mechanically, she's the Bounty Hunter's healer companion. Voiced by Lacey Chabert.
 
Line 694 ⟶ 734:
* [[Bounty Hunter]]: Seems to regard herself as such by Tatooine.
* [[The Chick]]: In comparison to the Bounty Hunter's other companions, Mako is by far the most concerned with being a good person in an often murky career, and generally approves of light-side actions.
* [[Consummate Professional]]: Her take on bounty hunting, overlapping with [[Hitman Withwith a Heart]]. Mako strives to be an honorable and professional bounty hunter, sparing those who turn out to be innocent or when the contractor lies.
* [[He Is Not My Boyfriend]]: She'll say this about her childhood friend Anuli on Nar Shadaa if the Bounty Hunter keeps teasing her about him.
* [[Hollywood Cyborg]]: Has a suite of cybernetic enhancements, notably a Holonet uplink in her brain.
Line 706 ⟶ 746:
* [[Young Gun]]: More relaxed than usual for this trope, but her introduction cutscene makes it pretty clear Mako wants to prove herself a capable bounty hunter as well.
 
==== '''Gault Rennow''' ====
 
A Devaronian companion acquired on Tatooine, Gault is a professional smuggler, con artist, and general scoundrel. {{spoiler|Real name is Tyresius Lokai, a target of the Great Hunt. He fakes his own death and joins the Bounty Hunter rather than continue to live the life of a hunted man.}} Mechanically, he's the Bounty Hunter's ranged damage companion. Voiced by [[Daran Norris]].
Line 717 ⟶ 757:
* [[Crazy Prepared]]: Escapes the [[The Baroness|Lady of Pain's]] [[Mooks]] because {{spoiler|one of his horns actually is a grenade.}}
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: As per [[Loveable Rogue]] tradition, he does like his snarking.
{{quote| '''Bounty Hunter''': Jedi are all talk.<br />
'''Gault Rennow''': No, I'm all talk. Jedi masters are something else entirely. }}
* [[Devil in Plain Sight]]: Figuratively and literally.
Line 725 ⟶ 765:
* [[Good Scars, Evil Scars]]: Has one horn broken off. See [[Crazy Prepared]].
* [[Horned Humanoid]]
* [[Lovable Rogue]]: Clearly thinks of himself as such, though [[Your Mileage May Vary]].
* [[Only in It For Thethe Money]]: One of his main motivations.
* {{spoiler|[[Recruiting the Criminal]]}}: How he joins the party.
 
==== '''Torian Cadera''' ====
 
A Mandalorian warrior and companion of the Bounty Hunter, recruited on Taris. Romance option for female Bounty Hunters. Mechanically, he's the class's melee damage companion. Voiced by [[Johnny Yong Bosch]].
Line 737 ⟶ 777:
* [[Expy]]: With his backstory and personality, he's essentially a Mandalorian [[Star Trek|Worf]].
* [[Glory Seeker]]: If anything, even more prominently than most Mandalorians.
* [[Kill It Withwith Fire]]: Almost all of his abilities involve his flamethrower.
* [[Proud Warrior Race Guy]]: Oh, yes.
 
==== '''Blizz''' ====
 
A Jawa companion of the Bounty Hunter class, recruited on Hoth. Mechanically, he's the Bounty Hunter's ranged tank companion.
Line 746 ⟶ 786:
* [[Badass Adorable]]: He's a Jawa. He's a ''tank''. He wields a ''rocket launcher''.
* [[Break the Cutie]]: His backstory. {{spoiler|It started with him leaving Tatooine with a salvager crew to find adventure, and ended up with him enslaved by space pirates on Hoth.}}
* [[Curious Asas a Monkey]]: Yes.
* [[Gadgeteer Genius]]: He's a Jawa, and lives up to their reputation as experts with technology.
{{quote| '''Bounty hunter PC:''' I've never met a jawa who couldn't turn tech to scrap in ten seconds flat.<br />
'''Blizz:''' Blizz do that all time too! }}
* [[Glacier Waif]]: For a given value of waif, and mechanically, Blizz is a brick wall.
Line 755 ⟶ 795:
* [[Pint-Sized Powerhouse]]: This little guy is one of the Bounty Hunter's ''tanking'' companions.
* [[Stuff Blowing Up]]: Carries a salvaged rocket launcher.
* [[Tagalong Kid]]: Comes across as this. He's not actually a kid, but he's an optimistic and eternally curious Jawa picked up by a professional bounty hunter.
* [[You No Take Candle]]
 
==== '''Skadge''' ====
 
A male Houk that worked under Nem'ro the Hutt, Skadge is a companion character for the Bounty Hunter and acquired on Belsavis. He was betrayed by his Hutt boss at one point in his life. He has the symbol of the Black Sun on his armor. Mechanically, he's the Bounty Hunter's melee tank companion. Voiced by Neil Kaplan.
 
* [[The Big Guy]]
* [[The Brute]]: His species is reputed for raw strength and short tempers. In fact, their large size and physical prowess are only rivaled by the Wookiees.
* [[Psycho for Hire]]: Yes.
 
=== Supporting Characters ===
 
== '''Braden''' ==
==== '''Lord ZashBraden''' ====
 
Braden's long and storied career has never quite reached the heights of notoriety it deserved. For more than twenty-five years, Braden has claimed hundreds of bounties for clients ranging from the infamous crime lord Nok Drayen to generals in the Republic military and Jedi Masters with no one else to turn to. With his glory days behind him and his career in decline, Braden is looking for one last chance to shine before passing the torch to a new generation of hunters and retiring in some quiet corner of the galaxy.
Line 776 ⟶ 817:
* [[Parental Substitute]]: To Mako.
 
==== '''Tarro Blood''' ====
 
The son of Alderaanian nobility, Tarro Blood renounced his privileged existence as the heir to a minor lordship in favor of pursuing greater glory and fame as a galaxy-renowned Mandalorian mercenary. Leaving his past behind and taking on a new dramatic moniker, Blood was able to prove that he was no pretender after years of training under a famed Mandalorian champion. Under the guidance of this exceptional tutor, Blood became a feared warrior and the favorite to claim victory in the next Great Hunt. Unfortunately, Tarro Blood's characteristic arrogance and sudden rise to prominence rubbed his competition the wrong way. The other Mandalorians in the competition made it their mission to ensure that he never came close to claiming victory. The resulting defeat nearly cost Blood his life, in addition to his pride, and he has remained away from the public eye for nearly a decade.
 
He is the main antagonist for the Bounty Hunter in Act 1.
 
Voiced by [[Fred Tatasciore]]
Line 787 ⟶ 828:
* [[Proud Warrior Race Guy]]: He is a Mandalorian after all. {{spoiler|You would think so. Actually, Mandalore himself tells you how much he despises Tarro Blood for his cowardice and cheating tricks. He and his lackeys are called out on it by Hedarr Soongh, resulting in the former's death, and you killing the cowards.}}
 
==== '''Crysta Markon''' ====
 
She is the Bounty Hunter's handler in the Great Hunt. She is quite friendly, and actually flirts with the male Bounty Hunter the first time she meets him.
 
* [[Running Gag]]: She keeps not giving enough information about ANY of the Great Hunt's targets.
 
==== '''Lieutenant Major Pirrell''' ====
 
Depraved, unscrupulous and conniving, Lieutenant Major Pirrell is an ambitious but cowardly Imperial officer determined to advance up Balmorra's chain of command at any cost. Pirrell's service record in the Imperial Navy stands as a bland testament to the inevitability of a middling bureaucracy to exist anywhere; no matter where in the galaxy he was stationed, Pirrell always managed to find a position closest to the most influential members of command and farthest from any of the actual fighting.
Line 800 ⟶ 841:
 
* [[Catgirl]]: His lover is a Cathar.
* {{spoiler|[[You Have Failed Me...]]: It's what Admiral Ivernus says when he discovers Pirrell's plan and confront him about it.}}
 
==== '''The Great Hunt Grand Champions''' ====
 
Bloodworthy, Human, The Defenestrator, droid, and Jewl'a Nightbringer, Zabrak.
 
They are the winners of the Great Hunt, mighty Bounty Hunters that get access to the Blacklist. {{spoiler|Bloodworthy becomes your contact in Act II. He gets later killed alongside The Defenestrator and Jewl'a Nightbringer in the end of Act II by a Jedi and a Republic squad that strikes your party.}}
 
* [[Action Girl]]: Jule the Nightbringer. You don't see it, but you can only be this as one of the champions of the great hunt.
* [[Arrogant Kung Fu Guy]]: It seems many Bounty Hunters are like this...Jewl'a Nightbringer certanly is. When she won the Great Hunt, she took the opportunity to insult the Mandalorians. Bloodworthy on the other hand is quite diplomatic with the Bounty Hunter.
* [[Badass Automaton]]: The Defenestrator.
* [[Expy]]: The Defenestrator to IG-88.
 
==== '''Mandalore the Vindicated''' ====
 
A Mandalorian male, Artus eventually became the Grand Champion of the Great Hunt, and challenged Mandalore to a duel in the gladiatorial arenas on the planet Geonosis; he successfully killed Mandalore the Lesser and took the title of Mandalore the Vindicated. He began to consolidate his power over the Mandalorian clans, destroying an uprising led by Jicoln Cadera, who believed the Mandalorians should support the Republic. After defeating Cadera's faction, Artus ensured that his Mandalorians remained in the services of the Sith Empire.
 
* [[Asskicking Equals Authority]]
* [[Big Bad Duumvirate]]: The current leader of the Mandalorians, Artus remained allied with the Sith Empire and the Chiss Ascendancy.
* [[Proud Warrior Race Guy]]
* [[Scary Black Man]]
