Kestar Bool

Main antagonist, reigning Galactic League champion

A callous Caskadag who wants control of the League itself. Voiced by Kris Laudrum.

Game Informer says the Bool family had imprisoned Shade; Kotaku says the Bool family invaded and took control of Shade's planet. Both are backstory claims from reviewers; the official site only says rival and champion.

Darius Pax

League founder and Shade's recruiter

A brash Besalisk businessman who founded the Galactic League. Voiced by Andrew James Spooner. Official starwars.com credits him with bringing skim speeders to racing.

Wikipedia says Pax is a former podracer mechanic; that detail is not in the official posts found.

Hibi

Shade's mechanic

An energetic Ardennian engineer who runs the workshop in each planet's paddock and fits parts. Voiced by Lucy Montgomery. Hosts the 'Under the Hood' video series.

Official starwars.com text says she lends 'a hand - or four' (four arms). The 'Hibi's Favor' trophy and 'Hibi's Shop' trophy connect her to the Favors and parts systems.
