Star Wars Characters are the characters seen in Angry Birds Star Wars. The birds are based on the Star Wars characters from the Original Trilogy, the trilogy that includes A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.

Luke Skywalker Bird
Red is Luke Skywalker in the Star Wars game. Originally, like in the previous games he did not have a power, but later gained his father's blue lightsaber. He uses a lightsaber in a spinning motion, similar to a shuriken to break blocks, as seen in a gameplay trailer. If Path of the Jedi is completed, then Luke will gain a green lightsaber, and clothing that resembles Luke's from Return of the Jedi. He seems to be more powerful than Red Bird was in Angry Birds. Name comes from the Angry Birds Online Shop. According to the official Angry Birds Star Wars Character Encyclopedia, Red Skywalker is a true member of the Bird Rebels and a True Hero. He is feisty and trains to become a Jedi Bird to help save the galaxy from the Pork Side. Red is very clumsy and often drops his lightsaber and bumps into other birds. He is proud of his "blond feathers" as described in the book and Yoda is his teacher, even though Obi-Wan was his teacher as well. He is a fast learner and draws his lightsaber very quickly. He bought R2-EGG2 and C-3PYOLK from the Jawa Birds. Skywalker is a brave pilot and is experienced in flight, however he does not land his X-Wing very well.

Trivia:

He has also been known as Red Skywalker and sometimes Luke Skysquawker.

Han Solo Bird
Chuck is Han Solo in the Star Wars game. His ability is to shoot a red laser 3 times from his blaster based on Han Solo's. He is turned to carbonite in Cloud City. Name comes from the Angry Birds Online Shop.

In the Moon of Endor update, Princess Stella melted the carbonite Chuck was frozen into. Chuck was given an upgrade to make him shoot more powerful blue lasers.

According to the Angry Birds Star Wars Character Encyclopedia, his in-book's name is "Chuck "Ham" Solo". He is a junk food smuggler and accociates with criminals. However, Chuck is considered a hero who helps the bird rebels. He is very good at gambling and won the Mighty Falcon (his spaceship) in a game of cards with Lando Classarian. (see below)  He is confident and thinks he is cool, but others do not think the same. Some times he even has no idea whatsoever of what he is doing at all.

This cocky smuggler is very good with using a blaster and makes missing a target almost impossible. Solo only does what he wants, so he gets aggravated when Princess Stella will order him around. It is said that he is confused that he has a love interest on her. His home planet is Corellia and has the skill of dodging obstacles. Among him and Terebacca there is a firm friendship.

Chewbacca Bird
Terence is Chewbacca in the Star Wars game. He can cause an earthquake as a side effect to his ability. He is bigger, and hairier than the normal Big Brother Bird. Name comes from the Angry Birds Online Shop.

According to the Angry Birds Star Wars Encyclopedia, his name is "Terebacca" and is Chuck Solo's co-pilot and mechanic to the Mighty Falcon. He hates keeping clean. He is apparently big enough to knock a planet out of its orbit by landing on it, and like Han, he smuggles junk food. Like Terrence, Terebacca is the "strong, silent type" and his language sounds like grunting to the other birds. Only Han Solo is able to understand him, which is rather strange as C3-PYOLK speaks all languages. His nickname is "Fuzzball" but only allows Chuck Solo to say it. His home planet is Kashyyyk and his special skill is to "be humungous". His ally is Chuck "Ham" Solo.

Princess Leia Bird
Stella is Princess Leia in the Star Wars game, using a blaster as a tractor beam to pull over pig structures, blocks, and pigs themselves.

She is stubborn, daring, and plucky. She expects everybody to obey her orders. She is eagle-eyed and aims well. Her home planet is Alderaan and is a sharp shooter. Her ally is Chuck "Ham" Solo.

C-3PO Bird

According to the Angry Birds Star Wars Character Encyclopedia, C-3PYOLK is C-3PO's official name. Unlike the rest, C-3PYOLK never gets angry. He is specially programmed to keep peaceful and like Matilda loves plants and enjoys gardening. He speaks many languages and all of them politely. He easily gets scared and likes staying shiny and having his nuts and bolts shut tight. He is a protocol droid and has a translating skill. His ally is R2-D2. While escaping in the Escape Pod from the Pork Side, R2-D2 makes the journey less scary for C-3PYOLK.

R2-D2 Egg
R2-D2 is the Egg. His ability is to electrify pigs with a beam similiar to R2-D2's electrifying beam seen in Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.

According to the Angry Birds Star Wars Character Encyclopedia, his official name is R2-EGG2. He is a devoted droid servant to the Jedi Birds and can act shell shocked sometimes, but others know that he will never let them down. he can talk to computers in a special language that others cannot understand. He looks harmless but hides The Egg, which contains the force. Both the Jedi and Sith are looking for it, and Yoda hid it inside R2-EGG2 to keep it safe. R2-EGG2 can record messages, which is used by Princess Stella to send a distress call to Obi-Wan.

Obi-Wan Kenobi Bird
Bomb represents Obi-Wan Kenobi. He can use the Light Side of the Force to push nearby blocks away and towards surrounding Pigs (Possibly the Force Push from the Star Wars universe). Once Level 2-25 of the Death Star is completed, Obi-Wan Kenobi's Force receives an upgrade.

According to the Angry Birds Star Wars Character Encyclopedia, his official name is Obi-Wan Kaboomi. He still apparently has the ability to explode, as also seen in the cinematic trailer. Like Bomb, he cannot always control his temper. He is a Jedi Warrior and later teacher, determined to protect The Egg at all costs. He trained Redkin Skywalker and Red Skywalker in the force. He knows a lot about the force, and even can apparently use his eyebrows to deflect small objects. A Jedi follows the path of peace, but he secretly enjoys blasting things. His home planet is Coruscant and his allies are Chuck "Ham" Solo and Red Skywalker.

Before the player begins Hoth, Obi-Wan is declared dead, defeated in his battle against Darth Vader on the Death Star. He continues to support the heroes through the remainder of the game, possibly as a spirit.

Rebel Pilot Birds
It is known that Rebel Pilots are the Blue Birds. In the official gameplay trailer, it was revealed that the Rebel Pilots have the ability to be divided into three, just like in the previous 4 games, but now they can split even after being hit, although this does not do much damage, this can be useful after being hit with a laser. After their power is upgraded, they can cause small explosion around them when they hit.

According to the Angry Birds Star Wars Character Encyclopedia, their official name or term is Blue Squadron, or Pilot Birds. They fly in the formation of one, then split into three to confuse the enemy. They are reliable and brave and dedicated into fighting the Sith.

The orange line on their helmets help them see each other.

Yoda does not resemble any of the preexisting birds. It seems to be a new bird created specifically to represent the old Jedi Master, although his shape seems to resemble an egg.

Darth Vader's in-book's name is Lard Vader. He is the most power hungry military commander out of everyone in the galaxy. He is desperately searching for The Egg, which can help him become emperor. Millions of the pigs look up to Vader and don't realize he is actually a bird. He was in fact originally Redkin Skywalker before converting to the dark side. Vader is short tempered and short in patience as well. He stands on 2 pigs to have a much taller appearance. Lard Vader once captured Princess Stella, his own daughter, for information about The Egg, but she did not give it to him.

Vader's home planet is Tatooine, like Red Skywalker. He doesn't have any allies as he considers everyone an enemy. He owns his own TIE Fighter that is faster than the standard one. He wished for his TIE Fighter to look like him in order to startle his enemies. It is larger and heavier than regular TIE Fighters.
