Extraterrestrials appear in many video games in a variety of styles. Sometimes they're evil, sometimes they're benevolent, and sometimes they're very similar to humans.
A person who captures or kills fugitives for money.
The Art of tracking down criminals and the wanted like for a cash reward.
A droid used by the Galactic Empire equipped with a carbonite sprayer.
A clone is a being created as a perfect genetic duplicate of another being, right down to the DNA.
Related to the ARC Troopers, these elite Clone Troopers were trained extensively in melee combat and are outfitted with wrist-blades. Their training allows them to challenge weaker Jedi and, when in groups, stronger ones too.
A heavily armored Clone Trooper variant outfitted with jetpack and flamethrower, they are generally used in cases of extremely hostile and unforgiving terrain.
Clone Troopers placed in charge of different divisions and units of the greater Clone Army. Each one has their own distinct name and customized armor, and are among the best of the Clone Army.
Clone troopers were identical, genetically-modified soldiers bred and trained to serve in the Republic's army during the Clone Wars.
Law makers and fat cats who will sell the population down the river just to gain more power and money.
The act of a noble, just, or otherwise good or heroic figure becoming evil through either external manipulation or an internal shift in beliefs or desires.
A catch-all term to describe adherents to the Dark Side of the Force who are not Sith
Droid soldiers of the Empire, with the larger and more advanced models able to double as exo-suits for human pilots.
An elite, black-armored Stormtrooper variant deployed in small squads, frequently acting as bodyguards for important figures like Orson Krennic.
The usually self-appointed leader of a region with totalitarian control. Usually will come into power through violence and will stay in power until he dies or is killed.
A cult of Dark Siders formed and led by Tavion, devoted to restoring the ancient Sith Lord Marka Ragnos.
Sentient mechanical beings from the Star Wars universe, Created and serve many applications from civilian to military.
The crimson-clad, highly trained elite who protect Emperor Palpatine and, occasionally, other important Imperial figures.
Resembling Palpatine's Royal Guards, the Shadow Guard are an elite sect of agents usually sent to hunt down and eliminate surviving Jedi and other rogue Force-Users.
A theme used very often in fantasy and sci-fi settings is that of a brutal, totalitarian empire or kingdom whose armies oppress the common people. Evil Empires appear under many names in various game worlds, including simply "The Empire".
An evil organization is a group of super-villans who are hell bent on world domination or something of a similar nature. Usually defeated by a single Spy/Superhero/Average Joe/small child.
A Stormtrooper variant usually deployed in treacherous and unusual terrains found throughout the Galaxy. Often recruited from xenophobic Stormtroopers due to their high chances of running into alien foes.
Fascism is a extremist totalitarian, nationalistic political ideology. Within video games, various fascist regimes are often portrayed as the enemy within the Second World War.
The First Order is the villainous successor to the Galactic Empire in the Star Wars series.
A fleet is a group of ships, typically military warships, that sail together for mutual protection and to consolidate their power.
Taking place in the Star Wars Universe, the Galactic Civil War was a conflict fought between the Galactic Empire and Rebel Alliance. The Galactic Civil War was featured in many Star Wars games and other media and is one of the most richly realized stories in the history of entertainment.
Whether it be Mario vs. Bowser, Jedi vs. Sith, Link vs. Ganon, or Elves vs. Orcs, the forces of good are in an eternal battle with the hordes of evil.
The extermination of the Old Jedi Order by the Galactic Empire.
Wearing incredibly large, bulky armor that makes them much stronger and tougher than common Stormtroopers, Hazard Troopers are deployed on worlds with particularly hostile terrain, such as the acid rain of Vjun or the lava lakes of Taspir III.
Henchmen are the loyal grunts caught in between the player and the main antagonist. Without them every game would be nothing more than a boss battle.
