The unnamed villain has been tasked by Darth Vader with hunting down the Jedi who survived the events of 'Revenge of the Sith.' He is a Pau'an, a species first seen in the same movie, and wields a Darth Maul-style double bladed lightsaber.
Lucasfilm's Pablo Hidalgo, who chaired the panel, said 'Star Wars Rebels' would stick closely to the Original 'Star Wars' Trilogy's look.

"The show is a Ralph McQuarrie painting come to life," referring to legendary concept artist who designed the movies' iconic characters and locations.
'Star Wars Rebels' premieres with a one-hour special on Disney Channel next fall, with subsequent episodes airing on Disney XD.
