Star Wars Jedi Survivor: List of All Characters

Learn about all the characters that will have screen time in Star Wars Jedi Survivor.

You will again take the role of the Jedi Knight, Cal Kestis, in Star Wars Jedi Survivor. Five years have passed since the events of Jedi: Fallen Order, and Cal’s experiences have left their mark on him. He has changed his attire, sporting a sleeveless vest, and grown a beard. Additionally, his ship now contains a shelf filled with mementos of his past hardships. That somewhat highlights the toll that his adventures have taken on him.

As before, Cal continues to serve the Alliance by running missions against the Galactic Empire. However, he is not only fighting against them but also against a new group called the Bedlam Raiders. They are led by Rayvis and are primarily staffed by combat droids.

A preview build of the game introduces Cal and his trusty droid companion, BD-1, as they crash-land on the remote planet of Koboh. This planet is home to various creatures, including the headbutting hens known as Rawka, yellow slug-moths called Shiverpedes, and even raspberry-blue aliens that can be thrown around. Despite these distractions, Cal has to remain focused on his mission and survive against all odds.

This plucky droid has become a fan favorite due to its cute and endearing design, and players can expect to rely on BD-1’s help just as much in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor as they did in the previous installment.

BD-1’s primary role is to provide Cal with health packs, which prove to be invaluable during tough battles.

Cere Junda

Cere Junda

Star Wars Jedi Survivor next introduces Cere Junda, a former Jedi Knight who severed her connection to the Force after Order 66, a cataclysmic event that nearly wiped out the Jedi Order. In Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, Cere discovered Cal Kestis, the protagonist of the game, and assisted him in rebuilding the Jedi Order. Unfortunately, Cere’s padawan, Trilla Suduri, was revealed to be the main antagonist of the game.

Cere returns in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, seemingly working from a base separate from Cal and his crew. Despite her past experiences, Cere remains a steadfast ally to Cal and his mission. In Fallen Order, Cere mentored Cal, imparting invaluable knowledge and skills to help him survive in the treacherous galaxy. It is expected that Cere will continue to play a significant role in Survivor, providing guidance and support to Cal.

As a former Jedi Knight, Cere possesses an impressive array of abilities, including proficiency in lightsaber combat and mastery of the Force. Cere’s experience and expertise make her a valuable asset to the resistance against the Galactic Empire.

Additionally, Cere’s own personal journey, having severed her connection to the Force, adds a layer of complexity and depth to her character. Her struggles with her own past and her loyalty to the Jedi cause make her a fascinating and multifaceted nature in the Star Wars universe.

Nightsister Merrin

Merrin is the last surviving member of the Nightsister clan, and she joined Cal and his crew aboard the Stinger Mantis after their victory over the dark side user Taron Malicos. As a valuable ally, she has been aiding them in their mission to take down the Empire and restore the Jedi Order.

In the story trailer for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Merrin is shown fully embracing the Force and fighting alongside Cal, using her newly developed Jedi powers to take down their enemies. She is one of Cal’s companions in the game and will join him as he explores new locations, unleashing powerful attacks and combos with their lightsabers.

Despite her initial reluctance to join the cause, Merrin became a valuable ally to Cal and even saved his life at the end of the first game. Though she has yet to be officially revealed in any of the trailers or previews for Jedi: Survivor, she is expected to make a return as a fully-fledged member of Cal’s crew and a potential love interest for the Jedi. With her unique powers and background, Merrin is sure to play a significant role in the story of Jedi: Survivor.

Bode Akuna

Bode Akuna

This one is a mystery. Bode Akuna is a secret character in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor who appears to have a deep-seated resentment towards the Empire. As a mercenary, he teams up with Cal and utilizes his exceptional gunslinging abilities to fight against the Empire. Bode is seen in the Official Reveal Trailer helping Cal take down enemies as an NPC, and he is expected to play a significant role in combat and traversal mechanics.

As a long-range specialist, Bode’s gameplay mechanic as an NPC support character may make him an indispensable asset to Cal during fights. Reports suggest that he will act as a buddy AI, aiding Cal during combat and traversal, making him an essential partner by his side.

With the Star Wars franchise renowned for its charming and iconic characters, Bode Akuna has quickly become a fan favorite, and his inclusion in Jedi: Survivor has heightened anticipation for the game’s release. The trailers give a glimpse of Bode’s character, which places him in the category of Han Solo and Poe Dameron, suggesting that he may have a more significant role to play than what has been revealed so far.

Greez Dritus

Captain Greez Dritus returns. In Jedi Fallen Order, he was introduced as the captain of the Stinger Mantis. This ship navigates the crew of Cal from planet to planet in search of Zeffo artifacts mentioned in Master Eno Cordova’s entries. After a clash of ideologies, Greez decides to open up a saloon on Rambler’s Reach in Koboh.

Despite no longer serving as the captain of the Mantis, Greez’s expertise in navigation and piloting remains unparalleled. He is also known to be a skilled cook and has served as the Mantis’ chef. During his time as captain, Greez found routes in hyperspace to avoid detection by the Empire despite harboring a Jedi fugitive that was relentlessly being tracked.

His personality remains as vibrant and adventurous as ever, and he has formed a tight-knit bond with Cal and the rest of the crew during their journey to rebuild the Jedi Order and fight against the Empire. Despite his gruff exterior, Greez is fiercely loyal to his team and will do whatever it takes to keep them safe.

Fans of the franchise have grown to love Greez’s endearing personality. His unique blend of humor and bravado has made him a standout character in the Jedi Fallen Order universe.

The Man in the Tank

The Man in the Tank

In the trailer, we saw a character submerged in a bacta-tank and later seen wearing High Republic Jedi robes. It has been revealed that this character is a Jedi from the High Republic era who was imprisoned in the tank.

He expresses contempt towards Cal for allowing the Empire to take over and questions how it came to be. It is unclear whether he will ally with or fight against Cal and his crew. The character’s identity and role in the plot may be significant.

However, Quinlan Vos was previously speculated to be the character, but this is not confirmed. The character’s freedom and disdain towards imprisonment suggest he may fight back against his captors or go into hiding to prolong his freedom. Who knows?

And that is all I had in stash for all the characters in Star Wars Jedi Survivor that have been confirmed till now. Until Next Time!
