Star Wars Zero Company Characters Guide

Hawks and the player role

PlayStation describes Hawks as a former Republic officer who leads Zero Company, an unconventional group of professionals for hire from across the galaxy. EA also says Hawks’ appearance and combat specialization can be customized. The full Hawks profile carries the 1.1 patch details and the unique AP-refresh skill reported by PC Gamer.

Hawks is the player-facing anchor for the campaign. This guide keeps the protagonist role separate from authored companions, Den staff, and custom operators.

Authored operator roster

The names below are listed by the Zero Command community roster and discussed in PC Gamer’s dated hands-on guide. Each profile now carries background, relationships, skills, weapons, and available classes from those sources plus the 1.1 notes. The field roster is Hawks, Trick, Tel-Rea Vokoss, Cly Kullervo, Luco Bronc, Kabb Uppercut, and Jae Mordant.

• Hawks: Human; Protagonist / squad leader.
• Trick: Human (clone); Soldier / Hawks’ Clone Wars companion.
• Tel-Rea Vokoss: Tognath; Jedi Padawan / exotic Jedi specialization.
• Cly Kullervo: Mandalorian human; Gunslinger / exotic Mandalorian specialization.
• Luco Bronc: Umbaran; Sharpshooter / former Umbaran soldier.
• Kabb Uppercut: Felshi; Mercenary boxer / cybernetically enhanced.
• Jae Mordant: Human; Operator / ore-baroness of Luunata.

Den personnel

These characters run the Den on the Ring of Kafrene. They do not deploy. EA’s July 2026 Q&A is the first-party list that names Bennic Halloren beside Runa Blask, Neesh Renark, and M-3VO.

• M-3VO: Droid (bipedal utility); Pilot and medic for the Caisson.
• Runa Blask: Togruta; Den finance and operations.
• Neesh Renark: Lasat; Den Armory and Black Market.
• Bennic Halloren: Not stated; Republic Intelligence lieutenant.

Infinite Coil antagonists

Kundri Fathom leads the Coil. Visser is the field lieutenant. Typhon is the ST-series super tactical droid. Species is unpublished for Fathom and Visser. Force use on Fathom stays unresolved because EA does not label the Coil a Dark Side group. The antagonist trio is Kundri Fathom, Visser, and Typhon.

• Kundri Fathom: Not stated; Infinite Coil leader.
• Visser: Not stated; Infinite Coil lieutenant and field commander.
• Typhon: ST-series super tactical droid; Separatist strategist.

The Den and custom operators

EA describes a squad made from a wide range of archetypes, including scoundrels, astromechs, and a Jedi, while PC Gamer reports that players return to the Den to talk with companions and manage the wider team. Custom operators can extend the roster beyond authored story characters.

The Den is therefore more than a mission launch screen in the current reporting: it is the social and preparation space where the squad’s equipment, relationships, and next operation come together. Neesh Renark runs the Armory and Black Market there.

Permadeath and recruitment boundaries

PC Gamer’s hands-on reporting says story squadmates and custom mercenaries share permadeath rules, while the Zero Command roster marks Hawks as immune to permadeath. Tel-Rea’s permadeath removes Jedi Padawan from that campaign. Those are source-specific observations; keep the build date beside them.

• Do not assume every named character is available at the start.
• Do not publish a guaranteed recruitment order without release-build evidence. IGN’s mission order is one observed path.
• Keep authored operators, custom operators, Den personnel, and antagonists as separate categories.

Character guide standard

A reliable character entry should include the in-game name, species, role, recruitment or availability condition, starting class, signature ability, customization limits, and a version label. Blank species on Bennic, Fathom, and Visser stay blank.
