List of The Mandalorian characters

January 01, 1970

The Mandalorian, an American space Western television series set in the Star Wars universe created by Jon Favreau and released on Disney+, features an extensive cast of characters. Since the show's debut on November 12, 2019, only one character has appeared in every episode: the protagonist and title character, a bounty hunter primarily known simply as "The Mandalorian" (Din Djarin). Grogu (The Child) is a young alien of the same species as Star Wars character Yoda and the show's hugely popular breakout character, colloquially known among the fandom as "Baby Yoda".[1]

These include allies of the Mandalorian such as Cara Dune, Greef Karga, IG-11, Kuiil, and The Armorer. The primary villains of the series belong to a remnant of the Galactic Empire, which is led by Moff Gideon and includes such agents as The Client and Penn Pershing. A handful of guest characters made appearances in single episodes, including villagers from the planet Sorgan in "Chapter 4: Sanctuary", a band of mercenaries in "Chapter 6: The Prisoner", and several minor antagonists.

Main characters edit

Din Djarin / The Mandalorian edit

Main article: The Mandalorian (character)
 
Pedro Pascal portrays and voices the title character of The Mandalorian.

The Mandalorian, sometimes abbreviated as Mando,[2] is a sobriquet for Din Djarin, the protagonist of The Mandalorian television series. Introduced as a bounty hunter, he is a member of the Mandalorian culture, as evidenced by his beskar armor and his distinctive helmet,[3] which he never removes in front of anyone.[3][4] He was a "foundling" who was rescued at a young age by the Mandalorians and adopted into their culture prior to the events of the series, after his parents were murdered by Separatist battle droids during the Clone Wars,[3][5] which resulted in his intense hatred of droids.[6] In the television series, the Mandalorian encounters a young alien known as "The Child", whom he attempts to protect from a remnant of the now-fallen Galactic Empire.[7]

The Mandalorian is portrayed and voiced by Pedro Pascal, and stunt actors Brendan Wayne and Lateef Crowder perform as body doubles when Pascal is unavailable.[8][9] Pascal has cited Clint Eastwood as an influence on the character, and many comparisons have been drawn between the Mandalorian and Eastwood's Man with No Name.[10] The Mandalorian creator Jon Favreau suggested Pascal watch Akira Kurosawa's samurai films and Eastwood's Spaghetti Westerns as preparation for the role.[11] The Mandalorian character and Pascal's performance have been well received by audiences and critics.[4]

Din Grogu edit

Main article: Grogu

Grogu, also known as "The Child" and colloquially referred to by fans and the media as "Baby Yoda", is a young alien of the same species as popular Star Wars character Yoda.[12][13] Although 50 years old, he is still an infant by the standards of his species,[14] and although he cannot yet speak, he demonstrates a strong natural ability with The Force.[15][16] A remnant of the Galactic Empire led by Moff Gideon is seeking the child to extract its blood for Dr. Pershing's secret experiments; the bounty hunter known as "The Mandalorian" is hired to track Grogu down.[17] Instead of turning him over, however, the Mandalorian attempts to protect the child from the Imperials.[7] By the end of the first season, the child is adopted into the Mandalorian culture as a "foundling", and the Mandalorian is tasked with reuniting the child with others of his kind.[18]

The child has been hugely popular with fans and reviewers, becoming the show's breakout character,[19] and the subject of many Internet memes.[20] The character was conceived by Jon Favreau out of a desire to explore the mystery around Yoda and his species,[12] and was developed in early conversations about the series between Favreau and executive producer Dave Filoni.[21] The child is mostly a creation of animatronics and puppetry, although accentuated with computer-generated imagery.[22] He is voiced by sound editor David Acord with the aid of various sound effects.[23] The Guardian called Baby Yoda "2019's biggest new character",[24] and many have described him as a key part in the success of the Disney+ streaming service.[25][26]

Bo-Katan Kryze edit

Main article: Bo-Katan Kryze

Bo-Katan Kryze is a Mandalorian warrior and the former ruler of Mandalore from House Kryze who appears in "Chapter 11: The Heiress" and "Chapter 16: The Rescue". Bo-Katan is portrayed by Katee Sackhoff, who previously voiced the character in animated form in Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels.[27] In the third season, Bo-Katan is credited as a main cast member, the first character other than the Mandalorian and Grogu to be credited as anything other than co-starring.

In "Chapter 11: The Heiress", Bo-Katan and the Nite Owls rescue The Mandalorian and The Child. She introduces herself, revealing her heritage as a Mandalorian, and that Din Djarin's group are zealots who wish to restore ancient Mandalorian traditions. The Mandalorian leaves rejecting their help. Later Bo-Katan and the Nite Owls again rescue The Mandalorian. In return for information he reluctantly agrees to help them seize a shipment of weapons. During the raid Bo-Katan changes plan, deciding to take the whole ship, not just the weapons. When they capture the bridge, Bo-Katan interrogates the head officer, wanting to know about the Dark Saber. Bo-Katan was impressed by the Mandalorian and invites him to join them, but he must continue his quest, so she tells him to go to the forest planet of Corvus, to find the Jedi Ahsoka Tano. In "Chapter 16" Bo-Katan helps The Mandalorian to rescue The Child from Moff Gideon.

In season 3, the Mandalorian sets out on a pilgrimage to the mines of Mandalore and needs Bo-Katan's help. At first she refuses, but when the Mandalorian gets into trouble, he sends Grogu to get her help, and she races to Mandalore and saves him. They find the Living Waters and the Mandalorian bathes in the waters, only to fall into it. Bo-Katan saves him again and as they return to Bo-Katan's home, they are attacked by Imperials and her home is destroyed. The Mandalorian takes her to the Mandalorian hideout, where he delivers proof of his pilgrimage and Bo-Katan is also accepted as she too bathed in the Waters. In the season finale, Bo-Katan becomes the one who reunite all Mandalorians as The Armorer predicted to her.

Recurring characters edit

Several characters have been featured in more than one episode within a season of The Mandalorian.

Introduced in season one edit

Greef Karga edit

Main article: Greef Karga
 
Carl Weathers plays Greef Karga, a leader of the Bounty Hunters' Guild.

Greef Karga is a leader of the Bounty Hunters' Guild, who serves as both an ally and adversary to the Mandalorian at different points in the show's first season.[28][29] Operating out of the planet Nevarro,[28] Greef gives assignments to bounty hunters and ensures everyone follows the guild's code.[28][29] Greef provides the assignment that leads the Mandalorian to meet the Child.[30] When the Mandalorian refuses to turn the Child over to the Imperials, Greef leads a group of bounty hunters in an unsuccessful attempt to take the Child from him.[28] Greef later devises a plan to kill the Mandalorian and return the Child to the Imperials,[31] but when the Child saves his life, Greef has a change of heart and helps protect him from the Empire while becoming a better man.[29]

In season 2 and onwards, he becomes the Magistrate of Navarro.

In season 3 after the pirate siege on Nevarro and Gorian Shard's death, Karga makes peace with Vizla and his clan as he did with Djarin.

Greef Karga is portrayed by Carl Weathers, whom Jon Favreau knew through the Directors Guild of America. Weathers accepted the part under the condition that he could direct future episodes of The Mandalorian in the second season. Greef was originally to appear only in a handful of episodes, but Favreau and the writers liked the character so much that the part was expanded.[32] Weathers performs his own stunts in the role.[33][34] The character has received generally positive feedback from fans and reviewers.[28][35]

The Client edit

Main article: The Client (Star Wars)
 
German film director Werner Herzog portrayed The Client.

The Client is a mysterious and unnamed agent of the Imperial remnant.[36] He hires the Mandalorian, as well as several other bounty hunters,[37][38] to recover the Child on behalf of his superior, Moff Gideon.[39] The Client does not reveal why he wants the Child, but he orders his colleague, Dr. Pershing, to "extract the necessary material" from him.[37][40] The Mandalorian delivers the Child to the Client,[41][42] but later rescues him back.[41][43] The Client conspires to recapture the Mandalorian and the Child,[31][44] but after the Mandalorian returns to him, the Client is shot and killed by death troopers under Gideon's orders.[39][44]

The Client is portrayed by German film director Werner Herzog, who was recruited for the part by Jon Favreau.[38][45] Herzog accepted the role in part to help finance his film Family Romance, LLC (2019).[46][47] Herzog was not familiar with Favreau's previous work,[38][48] nor had he ever seen a Star Wars film,[49][50] but he was impressed with the screenplays and filmmaking style of The Mandalorian.[51][52] Herzog strongly urged the show's filmmakers to use puppetry for the Child character and not computer-generated imagery, calling them "cowards" for considering using CGI in its place.[53][54] The Client character and Herzog's performance have received generally positive reviews from critics.[55][56]

Penn Pershing edit

 
Dr. Pershing is portrayed by Omid Abtahi.

Dr. Penn Pershing is a doctor and scientist affiliated with the Imperial remnant who works with the Client in his attempts to capture the Child.[57] He has appeared in several episodes of The Mandalorian,[58] starting with the series premiere "Chapter 1: The Mandalorian", in which he is present on an Imperial compound on Nevarro when the Client hires the Mandalorian to track down and deliver the Child.[59][60] When the Client says he is willing to pay half-price for proof of termination,[61][62] Pershing objects and says the child should be delivered alive.[62][63] Pershing appears again in "Chapter 3: The Sin", when the Mandalorian delivers the Child to the Client.[64] Later, when discussing the Child, the Client orders Pershing to "extract the necessary material and be done with it", but Pershing again protests, noting their employer has explicitly ordered them to bring the Child back alive.[55][65] The Mandalorian later returns to the Imperial compound to rescue the child, killing all the stormtroopers there and finding Pershing with the Child, who is sedated and strapped into laboratory equipment. When the Mandalorian threatens Pershing, the scientist pleads for mercy and insists he protected the Child and prevented him from being killed.[61] The Mandalorian takes the Child and leaves Pershing unharmed.[66]

Dr. Pershing returns in season two. The Mandalorian witnesses a hologram recording of Pershing, who is providing an update to Moff Gideon on his experiments involving Grogu's blood.[67][68] When the Dark Troopers apprehend Grogu, Gideon instructs his Comms officer to inform Dr. Pershing of Grogu's retrieval. In the season finale, Pershing is captured by the Mandalorian and his companions; he helps his captors infiltrate Gideon's ship to rescue Grogu.[69]

In season three, Pershing resides on Coruscant after being pardoned and enrolled in an amnesty program by the New Republic. He is surprised to find Elia Kane, Gideon's former communications officer, as a fellow participant in the program, and the two become friends. Kane helps Pershing find a way to surreptitiously continue his cloning research, but reveals herself to be working for the New Republic and betrays him to the authorities. Pershing undergoes a mind-wipe as punishment, but Kane secretly sabotages the procedure, significantly worsening its effect.

Pershing is portrayed by Omid Abtahi,[70] who previously voiced a Mandalorian character named Amis in the animated series Star Wars: The Clone Wars.[71] Pershing's costume includes a patch on his right arm with an insignia similar to one worn by clones in the cloning facility on the planet Kamino in the prequel film Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones.[65][72] This has led to speculation among some fans and writers that Pershing's plans for the Child involve cloning.[70][73] Pershing also wears glasses, making him the first human live-action character in Disney's Star Wars canon to do so. This was contrary to a rule Star Wars creator George Lucas imposed, before selling the franchise to Disney, that no character wear glasses in the Star Wars universe.[74] Pershing's costume, which also included a grey shirt with white shoulders and a high collar, was ranked eighth on a Screen Rant list of the ten best costumes in the first season of The Mandalorian.[75] Inverse writer Allie Gemmill called Dr. Pershing an interesting character, particularly due to the mystery behind his possible association with Kamino.[76]

Kuiil edit

Main article: Kuiil
 
Nick Nolte provided the voice of Kuiil, recording all the character's dialogue in one afternoon.

Kuiil is an alien of the Ugnaught species, and a former indentured servant of the Galactic Empire.[77][78] He is living in solitude on the planet Arvala-7 when he encounters the Mandalorian, who comes to the planet to find and capture the Child.[77][78] Kuiil assists him, and then later helps him rebuild his ship when it is dismantled by Jawas.[79][80] Kuiil also rebuilds the bounty hunter droid IG-11 after the Mandalorian destroys him.[79][81] Kuiil and IG-11 later join the Mandalorian on a mission to protect the Child from the Imperial remnant on the planet Nevarro,[81][82] where Kuiil is shot and killed by Imperial Scout Troopers while attempting to bring the Child to safety.[81][83]

Kuiil is voiced by Nick Nolte,[77][78] who completed his recordings for all the character's dialogue in a single afternoon.[84] Kuiil's on-set performance was done by Misty Rosas,[85][86] who during filming wore a face mask brought to life through animatronics and puppetry,[84][86] with its electronics and wires concealed in the backpack and pockets of Kuiil's costume.[86] Kuiil has been received positively by reviewers and fans alike.[87][88] Several critics have called him the best character on the show,[80][89] and his signature line "I have spoken" became one of the better-known and best-liked lines of dialogue from the series.[87][90]

IG-11 edit

Main article: IG-11
 
IG-11 was voiced by Taika Waititi, who also directed an episode of The Mandalorian.

IG-11 is a bounty hunter droid who initially attempts to capture and kill the Child,[91][92] but is later reprogrammed to become its nurse and protector.[93][94] The Mandalorian first encounters IG-11 when both attempt to collect the bounty on the Child. They work together to extract the Child from a gang of mercenaries,[92][95] but when IG-11 tries to kill the Child, the Mandalorian instead shoots and kills the droid.[92][96] IG-11's remains are recovered by Kuiil, who repairs and reprograms him.[97] The droid later joins the Mandalorian on a mission to Nevarro to protect the Child from the Imperial remnant,[98] and though the Mandalorian does not initially trust him,[82] IG-11 ultimately sacrifices his own life to protect the Child and his allies.[99][100] In the season 3 finale, IG-11 is finally rebuilt and becomes new marshal of Nevarro.

IG-11 is voiced by Taika Waititi,[96][101] who was offered the part by Jon Favreau based on their work together on Marvel films.[32][95] Rio Hackford provides the motion-capture for IG-11.[102] Waititi said he tried to create a voice that lacked human emotion while still maintaining some semblance of humanity,[103] describing it as a cross between Siri and HAL 9000.[104][105] IG-11 was mistaken for the Star Wars bounty hunter IG-88 when first unveiled due to the resemblance between the two characters.[59][104] IG-11 has been received positively by reviewers and fans alike,[94][93] with some calling him one of the best droids in the franchise.[94]

The Armorer edit

Main article: The Armorer

The Armorer is the leader of a tribe of Mandalorian warriors on Nevarro, which includes the show's title character. She provides spiritual guidance for the clan, and forges and repairs their armor,[106][107] including a new set of armor she makes for the Mandalorian.[37][107] In the first season finale "Chapter 8: Redemption", the Armorer instructs the Mandalorian to watch over and protect the Child,[108][109] and to reunite the Child with others of his own kind.[18] The character was partially inspired by the films of Akira Kurosawa, as well as the history and culture of the samurai, particularly in the character's deliberately-paced movement and aura of authority.[110]

The Armorer is portrayed by Emily Swallow, who provides both the character's voice and live-action performance,[111][112] while her stunts are performed by Lauren Mary Kim.[111][85] When Swallow auditioned for the role, she knew little about the character and did not know it was for a Star Wars series.[106] Aspects of The Mandalorian director Deborah Chow's personality influenced Swallow's portrayal of the character.[106][113] Kim's combat style in the Armorer's fight scenes was inspired by the Filipino martial art known as Kali.[111][112] The Armorer has been received positively by fans and reviewers alike, and has been described as a fan favorite.[114][115]

Cara Dune edit

Main article: Cara Dune
 
Former mixed martial artist Gina Carano portrayed Cara Dune.

Cara Dune is a former Rebel shock trooper from Alderaan who became a mercenary after the fall of the Empire.[28][116] Originally from Alderaan,[117] Cara is a highly trained warrior and skilled battle tactician.[118][119] She harbors an intense hatred for the Galactic Empire,[117] and is having trouble readjusting to post-war life.[116][120] Cara first encounters the Mandalorian on the planet Sorgan, where they work together to protect a local village from raiders.[121] He later recruits her to help protect the Child from the Imperial remnant.[122][123]

Cara is portrayed by former mixed martial artist Gina Carano, for whom Favreau specifically created the character, without auditioning any other actresses.[124][125] Favreau sought to create a powerful and independent character, but one different from Princess Leia or other strong Star Wars female characters.[124] Carano performed many of her own stunts,[33][34] and she credits Bryce Dallas Howard, who directed the character's first appearance in "Chapter 4: Sanctuary", with helping translate the character from the script to the screen.[121] Cara has been received positively by reviewers and fans,[124] and has been described as a feminist role model. Some critics called her unique even among the Star Wars franchise's female characters due to her physicality and combat skills.[126]

Peli Motto edit

 
Peli Motto is portrayed by comedian and actress Amy Sedaris.

Peli Motto is a mechanic who manages a spaceport on Tatooine and is featured in "Chapter 5: The Gunslinger", "Chapter 9: The Marshal" and "Chapter 10: The Passenger".[127] The Mandalorian hires her to repair his ship,[128] and she also comes to take care of the Child.[129][130] The bounty hunter Toro Calican briefly takes Peli and the Child as hostages in an unsuccessful attempt to abduct the Mandalorian.[131][129] When the Mandalorian returns to Tatooine in search of another rumored to be there, Peli guides him to Mos Pelgo, where he finds Cobb Vanth with Boba Fett's armor. She later gives him the task of taking the Frog Lady to Trask, where her husband knows other Mandalorians' whereabouts.

Peli is portrayed by actress and comedian Amy Sedaris,[132][133] who had previously worked with The Mandalorian creator Jon Favreau on the film Elf (2003).[134] Sedaris said she enjoyed working with the animatronic Child puppet, which she said made everyone on the set happy: "The minute you looked into Baby Yoda's eyes you just got lost."[135] The character and Sedaris' performance drew acclaim from fans and reviewers,[m] so much so that Sedaris became a trending topic on Twitter after the episode first became available.[135][143]

Peli appears in the fifth episode of The Book of Boba Fett, "Chapter 5: Return of the Mandalorian". Peli has kept her shop open and gains additional help from Jawas who bring her pieces of scrap. She helps customize an anabolic Starfighter for Din Djarin, which he later uses. The also reveals that Peli dated a Jawa at some point before the events of The Mandalorian. She also refers to the Jawa she dated as "furry".

Paz Vizsla edit

Main article: Paz Vizsla

Paz Vizsla is one of the warriors in the Mandalorian tribe on Nevarro. Strong and physically imposing,[144][145] he is a heavy infantry fighter.[146][147] He appears in the episode "Chapter 3: The Sin", where he initially quarrels with the Mandalorian for working with the Empire,[66][148] but later comes to his assistance when the Mandalorian is being attacked.[66][149]

In the first season of The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett, Paz Vizsla is voiced by an uncredited Jon Favreau,[150][151] who previously voiced a similarly-named Mandalorian warlord named Pre Vizsla on the series Star Wars: The Clone Wars.[144][145] Stunt performer and former mixed martial artist Tait Fletcher was the live-action body double for Paz Vizsla.[148][149]

Fennec Shand edit

Main article: Fennec Shand
 
Fennec Shand is portrayed by Ming-Na Wen, and is the first major Star Wars villain character portrayed by an Asian actress.

Fennec Shand is an assassin and mercenary for the galaxy's top crime syndicates,[152][153] who is sought by Toro Calican for his first bounty hunting assignment.[131] Calican catches Fennec with assistance from the Mandalorian.[128] When Fennec tries to convince Toro to free her so they could capture the Mandalorian and deliver him to the Bounty Hunters' Guild, Toro instead kills Fennec and seeks to capture the Mandalorian himself. Her body is later approached by an unidentified character.[128]

It is later revealed that this character was Boba Fett, who patched her up with some cybernetics. In "Chapter 14: The Tragedy", Fennec accompanied Boba Fett to Tython in order to reclaim his armor from the Mandalorian's ship. During a standoff with the Mandalorian, the three of them come under attack by the Stormtroopers dispatched by Moff Gideon. Fennec managed to decimate some Stormtroopers which also involved sending a boulder into their machine gun. When the Dark Troopers make off with Grogu and the Razor Crest is destroyed, Fennec and Boba Fett declare themselves in the Mandalorian's debt and agree to help him rescue Grogu.

Portrayed by actress Ming-Na Wen,[154][155] Fennec Shand is the first major Star Wars villain character portrayed by an Asian actress. Elements of the character's personality were inspired by characteristics of the fennec fox, including its trickiness, stealthiness, maneuverability, and ability to survive.[153] The fox also influenced the design of Fennec's costume and hairstyle. Costume designer Joseph Porro incorporated orange accents into Fennec's black costume, and Wen recommended the character's hair include braids inspired by the fennec fox.[153] Fennec Shand has been received positively by reviewers and fans alike, and has been described as a fan favorite.[156][157] Several reviewers felt the character was eliminated too quickly and did not get the chance to live up to her potential,[158][159] and some critics have speculated that the character could still be alive.[160][161]

This is confirmed in the second-season episode "Chapter 14: The Tragedy" that Fennec Shand is alive, discovered and saved by Boba Fett before her injuries proved fatal.

Moff Gideon edit

Main article: Moff Gideon
 
Giancarlo Esposito, who had previously worked with Jon Favreau on several projects, portrayed Moff Gideon.

Moff Gideon is the leader of an Imperial remnant and the primary antagonist of The Mandalorian.[162][163] Few details of his backstory have yet been revealed. He was previously an operative in the Imperial Security Bureau, a covert intelligence arm and secret police for the Empire,[164][165] and played a role in past efforts to eliminate the Mandalorians.[166][167] In The Mandalorian, Moff Gideon is attempting to abduct the Child to extract its blood for experimentation.[67][168] In the first season, Gideon briefly traps the Mandalorian and his allies on Nevarro in an unsuccessful attempt to obtain the Child.[166][169] Gideon reveals he knows secret details about the Mandalorian and his allies,[170][171] and is the first character in the series to reveal the Mandalorian's real name, Din Djarin.[169][171] In the final scene of the first season finale "Chapter 8: Redemption", it is revealed that Gideon possesses the Darksaber, a Mandalorian lightsaber.[172][173]

Gideon returns in the second season as he continues to track down Grogu. "Chapter 12: The Siege" reveals that Gideon requires access to Grogu's blood, which contains a high 'M-count', for it to be transfused into a test subject.[67][174][68] However, the experiments have thus far resulted in "catastrophic failure".[68][175] Later in the season, Gideon apprehends Grogu and seeks to continue the experimentation, but the Mandalorian captures Dr. Pershing and infiltrates Gideon's ship.[176] Gideon battles the Mandalorian with the Darksaber, but is ultimately defeated. As a platoon of Dark Troopers attempt to rescue him, Luke Skywalker arrives and destroys the droids.[177] Gideon attempts suicide, but is incapacitated by Cara Dune.[178] Grogu is taken by Skywalker to be trained as a Jedi.[67]

In season three, Carson Teva finds Moff Gideon's transport adrift where Gideon's body is nowhere to be found. Moff Gideon is killed in the season finale during the battle for the Reconquest of Mandalore.

Gideon is portrayed by Giancarlo Esposito.[179][180] He was recruited for the part by Jon Favreau,[181] who had previously worked with Esposito on several projects.[182][183] Gideon has been received positively by reviewers and fans.[18][31]

Introduced in season two edit

Boba Fett edit

Main article: Boba Fett

Boba Fett is a Mandalorian bounty hunter who first appeared in The Empire Strikes Back. Having survived the Sarlacc Pit he fell into in Return of the Jedi, he makes his return in a silent cameo in "Chapter 9: The Marshal". He reappears in "Chapter 14: The Tragedy", where he is revealed to have saved Fennec Shand on Tatooine after the events of "Chapter 5: The Gunslinger". Initially demanding Din to return his armor which the latter had acquired from Cobb Vanth, he and Fennec later aid Din in battling Gideon's forces as he regains his armor in the process. When the Dark Troopers make off with Grogu and the Razor Crest is destroyed, Fett and Fennec swear to help the Mandalorian rescue Grogu as repayment to Din for returning his armor.

Fett is played by Temuera Morrison, who previously portrayed Boba's father Jango Fett (of whom Boba is a biological clone) in Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones and voiced Boba in the 2004 DVD releases of The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.

Frog Lady edit

The "Frog Lady" is a female frog-like creature who appears in "Chapter 10: The Passenger" and "Chapter 11: The Heiress". She enlists the Mandalorian to take her and her eggs to the moon Trask to be reunited with her husband, who can fertilize the eggs, in exchange for information on other Mandalorians' whereabouts. She doesn't speak Galactic Basic, but briefly uses the damaged droid Q9-0's vocabulator to communicate with the Mandalorian. Because of the eggs' fragility, they have to travel at "sub-light", and end up crashing on an icy planet to avoid a X-wing fighter patrol who have an arrest warrant for the Mandalorian since he has helped break out Qin from the New Republic transport. They are nearly killed by a swarm of spider-like Krynka, but are rescued by the X-Wing pilots who let the Mandalorian go with a warning because he assisted in the capture of the others involved in the prison break. After completing repairs, they manage to continue their journey to Trask.

The Frog Lady reunites with her mate the Frog Man upon their arrival on Trask. The Mandalorian leaves the Child with the Frog Lady and the Frog Man to babysit. Following the mission with Bo-Katan, the Mandalorian returns where he finds the Child interacting with the hatchlings.

The Frog Lady is performed by Misty Rosas and her vocal effects are provided by Dee Bradley Baker.[184]

The Frog Lady was positively received by fans.[185][186][187]

Koska Reeves edit

Reeves is a Mandalorian warrior who appears in "Chapter 11: The Heiress" and "Chapter 16: The Rescue". Reeves is part of the Nite Owls and fights alongside Bo-Katan.

She returned in "Chapter 22: Guns for Hire", as part of Axe Woves band of mercenary privateers and watched as Bo-Katan fought Woves for the leadership of the group.

Reeves is portrayed by Mercedes Varnado, a professional wrestler better known by the ring names Sasha Banks and Mercedes Moné.[188]

Featured guest characters edit

Several characters have been featured in a single episode within a season of The Mandalorian in which they play a significant role.

Introduced in season one edit

Mythrol edit

An unnamed Mythrol appears in the opening scenes of the series premiere "Chapter 1: The Mandalorian", in which the Mandalorian captures him to collect a bounty.[132][189] He re-appears in "Chapter 12: The Siege". Blue-skinned and amphibious, with fins on his face,[190][191] the Mythrol is ultimately delivered to the Bounty Hunters' Guild.[91][189]

The Mythrol returned in the second season episode "Chapter 12: The Siege" where he was released from his Carbonite prison to work as a bookkeeper in exchange for a reduced sentence.[192] He also mentioned that he's still suffering from the side effect of the Carbonite where he hasn't regained vision in his left eye yet. The Mythrol was brought along with the Mandalorian, Karga, and Cara Dune during their raid on an Imperial base where he does things when either threatened to be put back in Carbonite to have his sentence cut in half. He was the one who found the message from Dr. Pershing to Moff Gideon about the experiments involving the Child's DNA.

The Mythrol is portrayed by comedian Horatio Sanz,[132][193] a long-time fan of Star Wars.[194]

Toro Calican edit

In "Chapter 9: The Marshal", the Mandalorian is told to seek out Cobb by people who had mistaken him for an actual Mandalorian because of his armor. When the Mandalorian meets Cobb and finds out the truth, he demands that Cobb remove his armor.

Together, they form an unlikely alliance between the townspeople and the Tusken Raiders to eliminate their common enemy, before the Mandalorian comes up with a strategy to use a Bantha as a suicide bomber and have it detonate once the dragon eats it. When the plan fails, the Mandalorian decides to allow himself to be eaten as well in order to manually detonate the explosives, and entrusts Cobb to look after the Child, should he perish.

Vulture writer Jackson McHenry complimented Cannavale, but said the character was "not the most glamorous part".[136] Germain Lussier of Gizmodo called the introduction of a character at the start of his bounty hunting career a "very intriguing twist".[128] Collider writer Vinne Mancuso called Toro a "strange character", but ultimately an inconsequential one since he was killed so quickly.[202] Gregory Lawrence, also of Collider, describing him as a "romcom villainous douche".[203] Tyler Hersko of IndieWire called Toro a "petulant" character less appealing than other antagonists on The Mandalorian.[204] Screen Rant writer Jessie Atkin called Toro a "poor caricature" with "annoying" dialogue, and criticized the show for recycling old ideas like him instead of exploring new territory. Atkin wrote: "Toro Calican was obviously supposed to be a lame knock off of Han Solo, haha, we get the joke, but boy is it one fans don't need to see again."[205]
  15. ^ a b Operation: Cinder was an Imperial protocol, most prominently featured in Star Wars: Battlefront II, which saw the devastation of several Imperial-controlled planets after the Battle of Endor.
  16. ^ Xi'an was ranked tenth on a Screen Rant list of the 10 most interesting characters from the first season of The Mandalorian,[35] and also made Vulture's list of the show's 15 best cameo appearances from season one.[136] Joseph Stanichar of The Post praised Tena's performance and "chaotic energy".[235] Vulture writer Jackson McHenry complimented the character's make-up, and appreciated the character for "bringing out some more humanity" from the Mandalorian.[136] Noah Howell of Niner Times enjoyed Xi'an's chaotic style and called her "another interesting piece to the puzzle" for the Mandalorian, complimenting how she fleshes out the protagonist's backstory.[83] Thrillist writer Dave Gonzales said Tena did a great job portraying Xi'an, praising the small touches she gave the character.[236] Elite Daily writer Ani Bundel felt the character was worthy of her own spin-off series.[237] Dan Brooks, a writer with The Mandalorian production company Lucasfilm, complimented the character and said he hoped to see more of her in the future.[238] Kevin Pantoja of Screen Rant said Xi'An was too over-the-top at times, but "there's still a lot to like about her".[35] Rolling Stone writer Alan Sepinwall said Xi'an's personality is basically limited to one trait, which is "erratic".[239] Matt Webb Mitovich of TVLine disliked the character, whom he described as "scenery-chewing".[240] Deseret News writer Herb Scribner called the character "boring".[241] IGN writer Joe Skrebels called Xi'an possibly the worst The Mandalorian character to date, describing her as "a mess of sneers, giggles, hisses (inexplicably) and absolutely nothing else".[216] Megan Crouse Den of Geek felt Xi'an and the others in her crew were too "hapless" and did not come across as efficient mercenaries.[242]
  17. ^ Alan Sepinwall of Rolling Stone said Brown's performance as Burg "has me wishing for a parallel reality where he got to play Hellboy when he was younger". But he also said Burg is basically limited to one trait, which is "hot-tempered".[239] Kerr Lordygan of TV Fanatic called Brown "the coolest guest star in this episode, and possibly thus far in the series".[253] Likewise, Collider writer Vinnie Mancuso declared Burg his favorite character on The Mandalorian.[254] Noah Howell of Niner Times praised Burg's makeup and Brown's performance, saying he did not recognize the actor until seeing his name in the credits.[83] Joseph Stanichar of The Post praised the energy of Brown, who he said delivered an "expert performance".[235] Popular Mechanics writer Darren Orf called Burg a "great addition" to The Mandalorian.[255] Katie Rife of The A.V. Club called him "overtly villainous", but said he was a "worthy adversary" for the Mandalorian.[243] The Ringer writer Ben Lindbergh called him "a heck of a henchman".[208] Not all reviews were positive. IGN writer Joe Skrebels called him "as one-note as you'd fear from someone described literally only as 'the muscle'."[216] Megan Crouse of Den of Geek wrote that Burg and the other characters in the crew "didn't work for me because I didn't believe in them as mercenaries. They're so hapless."[242]
  18. ^ Popular Mechanics writer Darren Orf complimented the "deadly game of hide-and-seek" between Q9-0 and the Child and enjoyed the fact that Q9-0 was not used for comedic effect, as droids often are in Star Wars. He called it a "nice change", and compared the character to HK-47, a droid featured in the video game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (2003).[255] Conversely, Craig Elvy of Screen Rant felt Ayoade brought deadpan humor to the character's voice, "adding comedic layers to a relatively brief role".[259] Dustin Pinney of Comic Book Resources said Q9-0 was "impeccably voiced" by Ayoade,[261] and Scott Snowden of Space.com said Ayoade's "unique voice" helped make Q9-0 a "great addition" to the episode.[209] Noah Howell of Niner Times called him a "solid" character.[83] /Film writer Bryan Young called him a "fascinating" character.[262] Mike Reyes of CinemaBlend ranked Q9-0 tenth on a list of the "10 Most Iconic Star Wars droids, though he wrote: "we don't really get too much of a sense of Zero's total personality".[263] Not all reviews were positive. IGN writer Joe Skrebels described Zero as "somehow more robotic than any other droid in the Star Wars universe".[216]
  19. ^ Thrillist writer Dave Gonzales said Córdova did a great job portraying Qin, and "manage(d) to not make the head tenticles [sic] look too stupid".[236] Noah Howell of Niner Times called Qin a "solid" character,[83] while Dan Brooks, a writer with The Mandalorian production company Lucasfilm, complimented the character and said he hoped to see more of him in the future.[238] Rolling Stone critic Alan Sepinwall called Qin the least interesting character from the mercenary crew, comparing his performance to "a poor man's Joker impression".[239]
  20. ^ Bryan Young of /Film said Omera "steals every scene she's in" and had such excellent chemistry with the Mandalorian that it "truly hurts" when he cannot stay with her at the end of the episode.[275] Forbes writer Erik Kane described Omera as a "great new female character introduced into a show that's been mostly men", and said he wanted to learn more about the character.[285] Vulture writer Liz Shannon Miller said Omera is a familiar archetype, but she appreciated that the character took a leadership role in the village and during the fighting scenes, and that she was not reduced to a background role due to her gender.[283] Not all reviews were positive. Kathryn VanArendonk, also of Vulture, wrote that Omera had "zero characterization except that she is a good, protective mother".[286] Anthony Gramuglia of Comic Book Resources wrote that some fans criticized Omera and the presence of other strong women in The Mandalorain because they felt it was "forced diversity". Gramuglia said these objections were misogynist and "patently ridiculous".[287]

Sedaris was excellent as Peli writing that she oozes charisma and displayed general warmth in her scenes with the Child 130 Vulture writer Jackson McHenry said the character was effective because she bears similarities to Sedaris real life persona including her semi ironic detachment and amusement 136 Keith Phipps also of Vulture said Peli was a multifaceted character showing sympathy for the Child while simultaneously appearing shrewd and vaguely threatening while negotiating with the Mandalorian 137 Jason Wiese of CinemaBlend described Peli as joyously funny and said she would enjoy seeing a spin off series focusing specifically on her 138 Rachel Leishman of The Mary Sue said she loved Sedaris appearance saying the actress brought the Amy Sedaris energy we know and love to the part 139 Gizmodo writer Germain Lussier called Sedaris casting another example of the kind of odd yet wonderful intersection of Star Wars and comedy prevalent in The Mandalorian 128 Many fans and reviewers complimented Peli Motto s wig 137 140 while others said her hair and jumpsuit like costume bore similarities to Alien franchise protagonist Ellen Ripley 127 141 142 Peli Motto was in included Vulture s list of the show s 15 best cameo appearances from season one 136 and her costume was ranked fifth on a Screen Rant list of the ten best costumes in the first season of The Mandalorian 75 Toro Calican made Vulture s list of the show s 15 best cameo appearances from season one Vulture writer Jackson McHenry complimented Cannavale but said the character was not the most glamorous part 136 Germain Lussier of Gizmodo called the introduction of a character at the start of his bounty hunting career a very intriguing twist 128 Collider writer Vinne Mancuso called Toro a strange character but ultimately an inconsequential one since he was killed so quickly 202 Gregory Lawrence also of Collider describing him as a romcom villainous douche 203 Tyler Hersko of IndieWire called Toro a petulant character less appealing than other antagonists on The Mandalorian 204 Screen Rant writer Jessie Atkin called Toro a poor caricature with annoying dialogue and criticized the show for recycling old ideas like him instead of exploring new territory Atkin wrote Toro Calican was obviously supposed to be a lame knock off of Han Solo haha we get the joke but boy is it one fans don t need to see again 205 a b Operation Cinder was an Imperial protocol most prominently featured in Star Wars Battlefront II which saw the devastation of several Imperial controlled planets after the Battle of Endor Xi an was ranked tenth on a Screen Rant list of the 10 most interesting characters from the first season of The Mandalorian 35 and also made Vulture s list of the show s 15 best cameo appearances from season one 136 Joseph Stanichar of The Post praised Tena s performance and chaotic energy 235 Vulture writer Jackson McHenry complimented the character s make up and appreciated the character for bringing out some more humanity from the Mandalorian 136 Noah Howell of Niner Times enjoyed Xi an s chaotic style and called her another interesting piece to the puzzle for the Mandalorian complimenting how she fleshes out the protagonist s backstory 83 Thrillist writer Dave Gonzales said Tena did a great job portraying Xi an praising the small touches she gave the character 236 Elite Daily writer Ani Bundel felt the character was worthy of her own spin off series 237 Dan Brooks a writer with The Mandalorian production company Lucasfilm complimented the character and said he hoped to see more of her in the future 238 Kevin Pantoja of Screen Rant said Xi An was too over the top at times but there s still a lot to like about her 35 Rolling Stone writer Alan Sepinwall said Xi an s personality is basically limited to one trait which is erratic 239 Matt Webb Mitovich of TVLine disliked the character whom he described as scenery chewing 240 Deseret News writer Herb Scribner called the character boring 241 IGN writer Joe Skrebels called Xi an possibly the worst The Mandalorian character to date describing her as a mess of sneers giggles hisses inexplicably and absolutely nothing else 216 Megan Crouse Den of Geek felt Xi an and the others in her crew were too hapless and did not come across as efficient mercenaries 242 Alan Sepinwall of Rolling Stone said Brown s performance as Burg has me wishing for a parallel reality where he got to play Hellboy when he was younger But he also said Burg is basically limited to one trait which is hot tempered 239 Kerr Lordygan of TV Fanatic called Brown the coolest guest star in this episode and possibly thus far in the series 253 Likewise Collider writer Vinnie Mancuso declared Burg his favorite character on The Mandalorian 254 Noah Howell of Niner Times praised Burg s makeup and Brown s performance saying he did not recognize the actor until seeing his name in the credits 83 Joseph Stanichar of The Post praised the energy of Brown who he said delivered an expert performance 235 Popular Mechanics writer Darren Orf called Burg a great addition to The Mandalorian 255 Katie Rife of The A V Club called him overtly villainous but said he was a worthy adversary for the Mandalorian 243 The Ringer writer Ben Lindbergh called him a heck of a henchman 208 Not all reviews were positive IGN writer Joe Skrebels called him as one note as you d fear from someone described literally only as the muscle 216 Megan Crouse of Den of Geek wrote that Burg and the other characters in the crew didn t work for me because I didn t believe in them as mercenaries They re so hapless 242 Popular Mechanics writer Darren Orf complimented the deadly game of hide and seek between Q9 0 and the Child and enjoyed the fact that Q9 0 was not used for comedic effect as droids often are in Star Wars He called it a nice change and compared the character to HK 47 a droid featured in the video game Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2003 255 Conversely Craig Elvy of Screen Rant felt Ayoade brought deadpan humor to the character s voice adding comedic layers to a relatively brief role 259 Dustin Pinney of Comic Book Resources said Q9 0 was impeccably voiced by Ayoade 261 and Scott Snowden of Space com said Ayoade s unique voice helped make Q9 0 a great addition to the episode 209 Noah Howell of Niner Times called him a solid character 83 Film writer Bryan Young called him a fascinating character 262 Mike Reyes of CinemaBlend ranked Q9 0 tenth on a list of the 10 Most Iconic Star Wars droids though he wrote we don t really get too much of a sense of Zero s total personality 263 Not all reviews were positive IGN writer Joe Skrebels described Zero as somehow more robotic than any other droid in the Star Wars universe 216 Thrillist writer Dave Gonzales said Cordova did a great job portraying Qin and manage d to not make the head tenticles sic look too stupid 236 Noah Howell of Niner Times called Qin a solid character 83 while Dan Brooks a writer with The Mandalorian production company Lucasfilm complimented the character and said he hoped to see more of him in the future 238 Rolling Stone critic Alan Sepinwall called Qin the least interesting character from the mercenary crew comparing his performance to a poor man s Joker impression 239 Bryan Young of Film said Omera steals every scene she s in and had such excellent chemistry with the Mandalorian that it truly hurts when he cannot stay with her at the end of the episode 275 Forbes writer Erik Kane described Omera as a great new female character introduced into a show that s been mostly men and said he wanted to learn more about the character 285 Vulture writer Liz Shannon Miller said Omera is a familiar archetype but she appreciated that the character took a leadership role in the village and during the fighting scenes and that she was not reduced to a background role due to her gender 283 Not all reviews were positive Kathryn VanArendonk also of Vulture wrote that Omera had zero characterization except that she is a good protective mother 286 Anthony Gramuglia of Comic Book Resources wrote that some fans criticized Omera and the presence of other strong women in The Mandalorain because they felt it was forced diversity Gramuglia said these objections were misogynist and patently ridiculous 287
