Admiral Ackbar - Mon Calamari commander of the Rebel Fleet. Ackbar is a symbol to the rest of the galaxy: a symbol that the Alliance is fighting for everyone, no matter what their background or origin. The Empire, in contrast, has made discrimination against non-humans a longstanding policy. Ackbar comes from the ocean world of Mon Calamari and was once the slave of Grand Moff Tarkin.

Anakin Skywalker - The father of Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa. Anakin, as a young boy, lived in the slave quarters of Mos Espa, on the planet Tatooine. A natural mechanic, he had a keen intuition with equipment and machinery. He worked as a slave in Watto's junkyard but dreamt of becoming a starpilot and longed for a world of adventure. He was rescued from slavery by the Jedi Knight Qui-Gon Jinn and soon after became the padawan learner of Obi-Wan Kenobi.

For a decade Anakin was trained by Obi-Wan in the ways of the Force. Against the rules of the Jedi, Anakin fell in love with Padmé and they secretly married. Anakin Skywalker became one of the youngest warriors of the Clone Wars, fighting alongside such heroes as Kenobi and Bail Organa. But as his Force talents developed, he was lured by Senator Palpatine and others to the dark side, which eventually seduced and consumed him. He became the powerful Dark Lord of the Sith, known as Darth Vader.

His armor includes a helmet with a macrobinocular viewplate, motion and sound sensors, infrared capabilities, an internal comlink with his ship, and a broad-band antenna for intercepting and decoding transmissions; wrist gauntlets that house lasers, a miniature flame projector, and a fibercord whip/grappling device; a back-pack jet pack with a turbo-projected magnetic grappling hook with a 20-meter lanyard; knee-pad rocket dart launchers, spiked boots, a concussion grenade launcher and an EE-3 rifle. 

Boba Fett was cloned from the DNA of his father the bounty hunter Jango Fett. He assisted his father in the cloning of an army of stormtroopers, which were used in the outset of the Clone Wars. Many years later he collected the bounty on Han Solo and delivered the former smuggler to Jabba the Hut.
