Revision 1

Kabbney "Kabb" Uppercut is one of the story companions in STAR WARS Zero Company. He is a burly Felshi veteran crook and former prizefighter who now works for Zero Company, known for his cybernetic arm, his namesake knockout punch, and a distinctive rhyming dialect.

Background

Kabb made his name in the fighting pits before turning to a life of crime, and he brings the muscle of a brawler to a squad otherwise built around blasters. His cybernetic arm is his signature, the source of the uppercut that gives him his name. STAR WARS Zero Company marks the first appearance of a Felshi in the Star Wars galaxy, so much of what defines his species is established here rather than carried in from elsewhere.

Role in the Squad

Kabb is a close-range specialist whose Uppercut ability can send enemies flying, knocking them out of cover and setting them up for a waiting squadmate. That control role makes him a natural partner for snipers and Overwatch fire. His blunt, rhyming patter gives the squad some of its color.

In Star Wars Lore

Because the Felshi are new to Star Wars with this game, Kabb's background is original rather than drawn from existing canon. As with every companion, anything the game does not show on screen is not confirmed as part of Zero Company's own telling.
