Who is involved
Dossiers (19)
All dossiersAdmiral Ackbar
The Alliance’s fleet commander, and the only major film character who debuted in a newspaper comic strip.
Airen Cracken
The Rebellion’s spymaster, who reached print in a tabletop sourcebook rather than a novel.
Biggs Darklighter
Luke’s best friend, cut from the film, partly restored in 1997, and dead in ninety seconds either way.
Derek “Hobbie” Klivian
Crash-prone, relentlessly pessimistic, and still flying decades after everyone expected him to stop.
Garven Dreis
Red Leader at Yavin, and the pilot who took the first shot at the exhaust port.
General Dodonna
He read the stolen plans, found the exhaust port, and gave the briefing every Star Wars mission scene has copied since.
General Madine
The man who built the Empire’s commandos, then planned the raid that finished it.
General Rieekan
The officer who called the evacuation of Hoth, and the reason anyone got off it.
Han Solo
The genre’s most durable scoundrel, and a surprisingly hard character to write well in prose.
Jek Tono Porkins
Red Six, four lines of dialogue, and one of the most stubbornly beloved bit parts in the franchise.
Jon “Dutch” Vander
Gold Leader, flying the slowest craft in the attack down the longest corridor in the galaxy.
Kyle Katarn

Leia Organa
A politician first, a fighter by necessity, and the character the novels have served best.
Luke Skywalker
The farm boy the whole shelf is built around — and the character the two continuities disagree about most.
Nien Nunb
He flew the Falcon into the second Death Star and laughed, and nobody has ever needed the subtitles.
Thane Kyrell
Defected on principle, and spent the rest of the war discovering that principle is not the same as peace.
Wedge Antilles
The only pilot to survive both Death Star runs, and the man an entire book series was built around.
Wes Janson
Ten seconds of screen time in 1980, and a decade of novels that made him the squadron’s standing hazard.
Zev Senesca
The pilot who found Luke and Han alive on the Hoth ice, and was dead by the end of the same battle.
