Quick answer: Zero Company's cast mixes authored story characters with player-created Operators. Hawks is the customizable protagonist; the official StarWars.com databank also highlights Kundri Fathom, Typhon, Trick, Tel-Rea Vokoss, Visser, Bennic Halloren, Runa Blask, Neesh Renark, M-3VO, Jae Mordant, Cly Kullervo and Luco Bronc, among others.
Hawks — leader of Zero Company
Hawks is a former Republic officer who now leads an independent outfit of professionals for hire. StarWars.com's SDCC coverage calls Hawks a disgraced former Republic officer who left the Republic and formed Zero Company to specialize in covert investigations and tactical operations. The character is fully customizable, making Hawks both a authored story anchor and a player-shaped combat role.
EA allows players to choose Hawks' Origin/species, appearance, outfit, Specialization, Weapon Class and voice. The surname Hawks stays fixed. Because many appearance and gameplay options can be changed later after the Den is unlocked, the character is designed to evolve with the campaign rather than freeze at the opening creator screen.
Kundri Fathom and the Infinite Coil
Kundri Fathom is associated with the game's central enemy, the Infinite Coil. Public story material describes the organization as a Separatist-aligned paramilitary cult seeking to spread a deadly shadow plague. Fathom is voiced by Rekha Sharma.
A spoiler-light guide should stop there unless the user is specifically looking for ending details. The important setup is that Zero Company is hired to investigate and oppose an emerging threat during a period when the Clone Wars are already destabilizing the galaxy.
Trick — a clone with his own identity
Trick is a clone trooper voiced by Dee Bradley Baker. The cast panel emphasizes that, even with clone characters, the performance and writing seek a distinct personality based on age, experience and attitude. In a tactics game where injuries, Bonds and optional permadeath can carry across missions, that individualization has mechanical and emotional consequences.
Trick is also useful as a bridge between familiar Clone Wars iconography and the game's less conventional mercenary roster. The company is not simply another clone battalion, but clone experience remains part of its texture.
Runa Blask — the operator behind the operation
Runa Blask, voiced by Vic Michaelis, handles the practical managerial work that keeps Zero Company functioning. StarWars.com's panel notes that she is Separatist-aligned in background and works with the company from necessity while sharing an interest in defeating the Infinite Coil.
That kind of uneasy cooperation is central to the relationship design. Not every pair of Operators begins as close friends; Bonds can start from tension and improve through missions and supportive actions.
Kabb, Jae, Tel-Rea and the wider roster
Kabb Uppercut, Jae Mordant and Tel-Rea Vokoss are among the major named Operators featured in official promotion and databank material. Kabb is voiced by JB Blanc, Jae by Judy Alice Lee and Tel-Rea by Nicole Rainteau. Official gameplay marketing shows the roster spanning archetypes such as scoundrels and Jedi rather than restricting squad building to one faction or species.
The exact value of each character depends on role, Specialization, Talent, Bonds and current injuries. A character page should therefore separate narrative biography from build recommendation; a favorite character can often remain viable through squad composition and respec choices even if their starting setup is not your preferred one.
Droids and Astromechs
The game supports droid Operators and custom Astromech options. The pre-order Crystalline Astromech pack introduced an R3 droid plus crystalline heads for R4, R5 and BR-1 variants. Droids also interact differently with some support mechanics: EA's Medic guide notes that Medpacs cannot be used on droids.
That creates real squad-building consequences. A player who loves Astromechs should not simply copy an organic-focused support plan without checking whether healing and utility effects apply to the droid roster.
Anakin Skywalker
Anakin Skywalker appears in the game and is voiced by Matt Lanter. His inclusion connects Zero Company to the larger Clone Wars timeline, but Hawks remains the protagonist. Marketing around Anakin should not imply that the campaign is an Anakin-focused action game; he is part of a story centered on Zero Company.
For fans searching specifically for Anakin, the most reliable confirmed facts are his appearance, the Clone Wars setting and Lanter's official casting. Story specifics beyond publicly promoted material are better kept to a dedicated spoiler-aware page.
Custom Operators
Custom characters are a major part of the roster system. EA's official game page says players can fill out the squad with original and custom-made Star Wars characters, tailoring appearances, loadouts and abilities. Recruitable custom Operators can be shaped more freely than authored characters and later respec systems make them flexible tools for filling gaps.
This means the "character list" is not a closed set in the way it would be for a fixed-party RPG. There is an authored cast with established story roles, but the player's own recruits can become important campaign members with their own tactical identities and Bonds.
Bonds make pairings matter
Relationships are tracked between squad members and can unlock combat synergies. Deploying characters together and using supportive actions can improve Bonds. Some relationships can begin negatively, which fits the story premise of uneasy allies from different sides of the Clone Wars.
This turns character preference into a strategic choice. Keeping a favorite pair together can deepen their Bond, but rotating injured Operators protects the roster. A useful character guide should therefore consider both individual kit and the pairings that make the squad stronger.
Official databank names
StarWars.com's game page currently surfaces a databank including Hawks, Kundri Fathom, Typhon, Trick, Tel-Rea Vokoss, Visser, the Infinite Coil, Bennic Halloren, Runa Blask, Neesh Renark, M-3VO, Jae Mordant, Cly Kullervo and Luco Bronc. That official list should be the starting point for future individual character pages rather than creating dozens of speculative URLs from unverified names.
