They are aided by Han Solo in their search for Skywalker and their mission to destroy the First Order’s new superweapon, Starkiller Base, which targets the New Republic and the Resistance for destruction. In the midst of this search, new heroes rise in the form of Rey, a 19 year-old girl and a Force-sensitive scavenger from Jakku; Finn, a stormtrooper who defected from the First Order; and Poe Dameron, the best pilot in the Resistance.
