"The Platform Classic" Episode Guide | Star Wars Resistance

A legendary racer in his own right, and three-time winner of the Five Sabers, Marcus Speedstar is also the estranged younger brother of Jarek Yeager. When he returns to race brother-versus-brother in the Platform Classic, he hopes to mend their fractured family, scarred by Speedstar's blind quest for glory at any cost. But in the years they've been apart, Marcus has run afoul of the Guavian Death gang, and a 20,0000-credit debt jeopardizes his mission and his friend's life.

With a jubilant greeting in his native tongue, Oplock can be off-putting to those who don't speak Cracek, the language of the Esral'sa'Niktos, a Nikto subspecies more commonly referred to as the mountain Nikto. But Oplock is a trusted mechanic and loyal friend to Marcus Speedstar, perhaps one of the only friends or family members to stand by him despite past infractions that have cost others their lives. When Speedstar's past catches up to them on the Colossus, it's Oplock who must pay for the racer's misdeeds when he's taken hostage by the Guavian Death Gang until his boss has made good on his debt.

Jarek Yeager runs a repair shop on the Colossus refueling station, enjoying the solitude of being far from the central systems of the galaxy. He is quiet, hardworking, and wise, having experienced much in his lifetime.

Known for its distinctive red-armored foot soldiers, the Guavian Death Gang is a criminal organization driven out of the Core Worlds by unrest in the galactic underworld. Guavian Death Gang soldiers undergo cybernetic augmentation, with a mechanical reservoir and pump injecting chemicals into their bloodstreams to enhance speed and aggression. They are silent in battle, communicating via high-frequency datastreams. Han Solo ran afoul of the Guavians for failing to repay their 50,000-credit loan.

Solemn and reserved, Captain Imanuel Doza runs the Colossus platform from a pristine office in his namesake tower. Although he has a soft spot for his daughter, Torra, he is seen as a stern man who will not be easily intimidated, even by the First Order.

Located on the Outer Rim water planet of Castilon, the Colossus is a dangerous place that tends to attract well-meaning outcasts and more unsavory denizens of far-flung planets alike. Protected by some of the best pilots around, the Aces, elite stars of entertaining and dangerous sky races, the platform is soon infiltrated by the First Order, architects of a larger conflict brewing in the galaxy. But a small band of Resistance sympathizers led by secret spy Kazuda Xiono discover that the platform isn't what it seems.
