Disney shares first look at characters aboard Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser
With reservations now open for Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser and the first “voyages” only a few months away, Disney has shared a first look at some of the characters guests will encounter during their time aboard the Halcyon.
Debuting on March 1, 2022 at Walt Disney World Resort, this unique Star Wars adventure will make guests the heroes of their own stories as they tour the galaxy aboard the luxurious space liner.
Throughout the two-day experience, guests will “see, feel and live Star Wars,” which includes meeting Resistance heroes like Rey and Chewbacca, encountering Kylo Ren and the First Order, or even brand-new, colorful characters created just for the Galactic Starcruiser.
Check out the official character biographies for each of the new characters and their character concept art below:
Captain Riyola Keevan
Charismatic, respected and trustworthy, Captain Keevan will lead your voyage aboard the Halcyon starcruiser. She is a strong and decisive leader, endearing herself to both her crew and her passengers by being fair to all and cool under pressure — a skill she’s learned from her… “adventurous” history. You’ll likely find the captain on the ship’s bridge — and you’d be wise to listen carefully and follow her instructions.
Cruiser Director Lenka Mok
There is much fun to be had aboard the starcruiser, and Lenka Mok is your go-to crew member to discover it all. As the captain’s right hand, Mok is in charge of onboard entertainment, so it’s her job to make sure your voyage is an adventure. An optimistic and joyful soul, Mok’s happiness is derived from yours, so this is definitely someone you’ll want to meet!
SK-62O
This astromech droid is Mok’s assistant cruise director, ensuring things run smoothly and on time. He keeps an eye on all the workings of the ship and is devoted to Mok and Captain Keevan. And while he loves to have fun with guests, he’s also good in a pinch if anything should go awry (one of his many hidden talents).
Sammie the Mechanic
Sammie’s proficiency as the ship’s new mechanic is actually not his most endearing feature. His enthusiasm and good-natured personality quickly won over the starcruiser’s crew and that makes him popular among guests who happen across his path. He’s clearly eager to prove himself on such a well-appointed vessel, and his tasks always seem to get done… somehow.
D3-O9
D3-O9 is another droid you may see appear on viewscreens onboard the Halcyon starcruiser. Her primary responsibility is running ship logistics, so she certainly knows everyone and everything happening onboard during a voyage. But her favorite part of the job is talking with passengers. Built centuries ago by Chandrila Star Line’s founder, D3 has seen the ship’s history — and the entire galaxy — evolve, and she’s not shy about sharing her knowledge and opinions with passengers.
First Order Lt. Harman Croy
While the Halcyon starcruiser is a pleasure vessel, this is a stormy time in the galaxy as battles rage between the First Order and the Resistance — and it’s often impossible to avoid the conflict. The ambitious and intimidating Lt. Croy is on special assignment to root out and expose any Resistance fighters who are rumored to be aboard the ship. Will you help him? Will you support the Resistance? Will you just sit back and see how the whole thing plays out? The choice is yours.
