Is there any character in the Star Wars universe who is known to have been born before Episode I and is known to still be alive in Episode VII?
Some of the main characters that I have already ruled out as possible answers are:
- Yoda, Darth Vader, Senator Palpatine, who all died in Episode VI.
- Luke and Leia Skywalker, who were both born in Episode III.
- Jar Jar Binks, whose fate has not been established by canon (his voice is heard at the end of the DVD release of Episode VI, but we don't know if he survived until Episode VII).
- R2-D2 and C-3PO, because droids are not lifeforms.
Answer
Maz Kanata is over a thousand years old.
From the novelization:
Han indicated the soaring walls now rising before them (...) "The galaxy’s full of watering holes, but nothing like this place. It’s been run by an old smuggler named Maz Kanata for a thousand years."
