General Engell

Now that he is Supreme Leader, Kylo Ren has created a cabinet of top First Order military leaders to carry out his orders. This is a change from Snoke’s regime, in which most high-ranking officers knew little of the First Order’s capabilities and goals. Cooperation is new to these proud men and women, and many of High Command’s meetings aboard the Steadfast are marred by sniping and turf wars.

The son of Han Solo and Leia Organa, Ben Solo was seduced by the dark side of the Force and renamed himself Kylo Ren: leader of the Knights of Ren, champion of the First Order, and apprentice to Supreme Leader Snoke. Driven to destroy the past, Kylo killed his father and his master, supplanting Snoke as Supreme Leader. But he remained haunted by his father’s death, his connection with the mysterious Rey, and the pull of the good in himself. In time, all three would help Ben Solo return to the light.

Young and ruthless, General Hux is a believer in technology, and eagerly awaits the day when the First Order’s innovations will help bring down the remnants of the New Republic and the Resistance – a victory he believes will also lead to his ruling the galaxy. His increasingly poisonous rivalry with Kylo Ren causes him to take a desperate gamble.

Domaric Quinn has ascended the First Order ranks to become an important commander and earn a seat on Kylo Ren’s Supreme Council. A former Imperial officer, he loathes the mysticism of the Force and is suspicious of the First Order’s new Sith allies on Exegol. When Ren tires of Quinn’s caustic questions, Quinn learns the perils of crossing the Supreme Leader.

Clad in distinctive armor of salvaged chromium, Captain Phasma commands the First Order’s legions of stormtroopers. A tough veteran commander, she has no use for fancy titles or complex war rooms, preferring to lead her troops in battle against the First Order’s enemies. A determined survivor, Phasma betrayed the First Order on Starkiller Base. She managed to conceal her treachery, but fell in battle against Finn, one of her former soldiers.

The New Republic’s rise reduced the once-mighty Empire to a rump state hemmed in by strict disarmament treaties and punishing reparations. But in the galaxy’s Unknown Regions, former Imperial officers, nobles and technologists plotted a return to power, building fleets and armies in secret. This movement became the First Order, ruled by Supreme Leader Snoke, and is now ready to reclaim the Imperial legacy.
