With a whole universe to explore and hundreds of planets to land on, it’s no surprise that there will be plenty of Starfield characters for you to meet. Ranging from space pirates, to faction leaders, to residents of New Atlantis, there are plenty of new faces to see.
We’re hoping for a smooth landing once the Starfield release date rolls around, with Bethesda’s new IP looking to be one of the best Xbox RPG games of recent times. And, for those looking to play Starfield on Game Pass, you’ll be able to play it as part of your rolling subscription. But for now, here are the characters you’ll meet, alongside their Starfield faction if it is known.
Starfield characters list
The Starfield characters confirmed are:
- Sarah Morgan (Constellation)
- Matteo (Constellation)
- Noelle (Constellation)
- Walter (Constellation)
- Barrett (Constellation)
- Vlad (Constellation)
- Sam Coe (Constellation)
- Vasco (Constellation)
- Adoring Fan
- Pascual Logan (United Colonies)
- John Tuala (United Colonies)
- Kibwe Ikande (United Colonies)
- Heller
- Marika Boros
With a universe so big, there will be plenty of other characters to find. As such, we’ll update this article whenever we have new information.
Sarah Morgan
One of the first people you meet as you enter the Starfield universe, Sarah is a member of Constellation, a group of space explorers who look to answer the question: “what’s out there?” She is described as an “ex-soldier and adventurer”, and is one of the Starfield companions you can take with you on your journey.
Matteo
Described by Bethesda as “the theologian who believes that there’s definitely something else out there”, Matteo is one of the core members of Constellation.
Noelle
A “gifted scientist”, Noelle is not only part of Constellation, but is also “Sarah Morgan’s protege.”
Walter
Walter is, according to Bethesda, “a very successful business man in the settled systems, and Constellation’s financier”.
Barrett
Described as a friendly face by Bethesda, Barrett is a member of Constellation and likely one of the first faces you’ll meet as you begin your journey. He’s a jack of all trades, being an adventurer, scientist, and an explorer. He is also confirmed to be a companion.
Vlad
A former pirate, Vlad appears to be on the straight and narrow nowadays, mixing business (bar work) with pleasure (hitting the gym).
Sam Coe
Of course, if Constellation has a former pirate, then it needs a former cowboy – this is where Sam Coe comes in. Sam is also confirmed to be a companion in Starfield.
Vasco
Capable of exploring rough terrain and well-suited for space travel, Vasco is a robotic companion owned by Constellation. Fallout 4’s Codsworth was the charming robot character in Bethesda’s last RPG, and it looks like Vasco is going to play that role this time around in Starfield.
Adoring Fan
Referenced in an in-game menu listing all the Starfield traits, the Adoring Fan is a somewhat returning feature from The Elder Scrolls Oblivion. They’ll be an annoying companion that keeps popping up on your travels, however, they’ll also offer gifts to you.
Pascual Logan
Pascual Logan, a Fleet Admiral for the United Colonies, is one of the highest-ranking officers of the most powerful military and political faction in Starfield. While not much is known about him otherwise, we expect him to have a major role when the game releases.
John Tuala
Details on John Tuala are currently scarce, however, we do know that Pascual Logan describes him as a “Lieutenant at MAST for the Vanguard”, thanks to a user on Reddit. As such, his exact relationship with the Fleet Admiral is unknown, but we expect him to be an ally of sorts.
Kibwe Ikande
Even fewer details are known about Kibwe Ikande compared to John Tuala. However, he is reportedly a Commander within the United Colonies.
Heller
Heller’s exact backstory isn’t confirmed, but he appears in the Starfield Direct as a character you can recruit to become a crew member on your ship or outposts. You appear to find him injured or lost on some desolate moon or planet, and he’s wearing a substantial spacesuit. You can spot him, and our next entry, in the trailer above.
Marika Boros
Marika Boros appears as another crew member you can recruit. You can find them in one of Starfield’s many space ports. Like Heller, we don’t know much about them, other than that they seem to quite competent with one of the Starfield weapons in their hands, judging by their skills.
If all of these characters sound exciting to meet, make sure to pick up an Xbox Game Pass subscription below before September.
Those are all of the Starfield characters we currently know of, but we’ll be updating as we find new faces within the different galaxies.
