Hera Syndulla and Sabine Wren are long-time Rebel allies. Hera is a Twi’lek female pilot and revolutionary, the daughter of rebels who inherited their fight against the Empire. She owns the astromech droid and known menace, Chopper. She also had a lengthy and beautiful love affair with Jedi Kanan Jarrus, who died protecting her from a massive explosion in the final season of Rebels

Sabine Wren has very close ties to Bo-Katan Kryze, a central character in The Mandalorian. Sabine was once a cadet at the Empire’s academy on Mandalore, where she worked to build weapons that were then used against her own people. She fled the planet and was branded a traitor by the Empire, working as a bounty hunter until being discovered by Hera and Kanan Jarrus. She joined their fight and eventually found the Darksaber, an ancient Mandalorian weapon which purportedly had the power to unite the Mandalorian people. She wielded it for a time before bestowing it to Bo-Katan Kryze, whose struggle with the Darksaber continues in The Mandalorian TV series.
