    History

    A young Cassian Andor

    Although he's long claimed to be from the world of Fest, Cassian was once known as Kassa on Kenari. A lush jungle planet all-but destroyed by a mining accident, Kassa and his sister, Kerri, lived among a tribe of youngsters who survived on the untamed planet. When he was adopted by Maarva and Clem Andor at the age of 9, Cassian left Kenari behind, but could not shake thoughts of his sister.

    Cassian Andor on Luthen's ship

    On Ferrix, the young man grew up answering to the name Cassian Andor among his friends and neighbors. But Cassian understood the power of keeping a low profile. During a heist on Aldhani, he asked his fellow rebels to simply call him "Clem." Lying low in the aftermath of that mission, he adopted the alias "Keef Girgo" to avoid Imperial attention while vacationing on the resort world of Niamos. But Cassian couldn’t escape the Empire. In a twist of irony, he wasn’t arrested for any of his illicit rebel activities; instead, he was unlawfully detained on Niamos for loitering. Charged with “civil disruption,” Cassian, as Keef, was sentenced to six years of labor in an Imperial prison on Narkina 5.

    Not long after he arrived, Cassian discovered all of the inmates were unknowingly serving life sentences without parole. He convinced his fellow prisoners, including Kino Loy and Ruescott Melshi, to band together, and together they staged a desperate breakout. Cassian returned to Ferrix to say a final farewell to his adoptive mother Maarva, who died while he was in prison. But the Imperial Security Bureau, which had identified him as a possible rebel, was expecting him. Resentment of the Empire’s presence spilled over during the funeral and the people of Ferrix rioted, giving Cassian the opportunity he needed to liberate his friend Bix Caleen and escape from the planet with Luthen Rael.

    Cassian was more resolute than ever to contribute to the rebels’ cause. Over the next few years, he worked in intelligence from Coruscant and later Yavin 4, where his duties included sabotage, reconnaissance, and assassination.

    Maya Pei Brigade

    After stealing a TIE Avenger from an Imperial test facility, Cassian crossed paths with a ragtag group of rebels known as the Maya Pei Brigade before returning to the farming community on Mina-Rau to reunite with Bix, Wilmon Paak, and Brasso, who was killed moments before Cassian arrived.

    Later, Cassian and Bix lived together in a Coruscant safehouse owned by Luthen. While he was concerned about Bix’s health, Cassian agreed to go undercover as a fashion designer to assess the Ghorman Front rebels for Luthen. Cassian believed the Ghorman Front, like the Maya Pai Brigade, was too undisciplined and impatient to be trusted. But, later, Wilmon convinced Cassian to return to Ghorman on Luthen’s orders to attempt to kill ISB officer Dedra Meero. While there, Cassian witnessed the massacre of thousands of Ghorman citizens by the Empire.

    K-2SO

    Before returning to Yavin 4, Cassian loaded the parts of a disassembled KX-security droid onto his ship. This droid was later reprogrammed and rewired to become the rebel ally K-2SO. Cassian remained split between his loyalty to Bix, the rebels on Yavin who saw him as a leader, and Luthen.

    Cassian meets with Mon after her speech.

    After her break from the Senate, Cassian engineered Mon Mothma’s safe escape from Imperial arrest. Upon returning to Yavin, Cassian told Bix that he was done with the Rebellion for good and that they should flee together. But the next morning Cassian discovered Bix had left Yavin 4, leaving him with a message imploring him to stay with the Rebellion.

    Kleya and Cassian talk after Cassian and Melshi find her on Coruscant.

    When Cassian received a distress call from Coruscant that he believed was from Luthen, Cassian, K2, and Melshi attempted to rescue him. They found Kleya instead – who informed them of Luthen’s death. Cassian safely returned Kleya to Yavin 4, where he then reported to a rebel council including Davits Draven, Mon Mothma, and Bail Organa that the Emperor’s energy project was the cover story for the production of a deadly superweapon. After an intel mission on the Ring of Kafrene, Cassian and K-2SO recruited Jyn Erso to help the Rebellion find her father, an Imperial scientist.

    Through his efforts and the sacrifices of the entire crew of “Rogue One” on Scarif, the Rebellion retrieved the schematics of the Death Star and exploited its weakness in a decisive victory against the Empire.

A member of the Daughters of Ferrix, Maarva is revered for the sharpness of her mind and firmness of her spirit. Despite the years and her failing health, she has a strong independent streak in her, something she shares with her adopted son, Cassian.

      Saw Gerrera

      A battered veteran of the Clone Wars, at the dawn of the Empire Saw Gerrera continues to lead a band of insurgents and extremists, the first of what will become countless rebel cells locked in a civil war with the Empire. Saw loses much in his decades of combat, but occasional flashes of the charismatic and caring man he once was shine through his calloused exterior. Even in his later years, when Gerrera is bunkered on the ancient world of Jedha, coordinating a prolonged insurgency against the Imperial occupation, his ailing health does little to wither his resolve to fight.
