The characters in the show

First Season Second Season Third Season

Commanders and Staff

CAPTAIN JOHN SHERIDAN Bruce Boxleitner
Commander of Babylon 5 after the reassignment of Commander Sinclair. Outgoing and quick-thinking; Former captain of the Earthforce military starship Agamemmnon. He won one of Earth's only victories over the Minbari in the war; his presence on Babylon 5 was met with heavy objections by the Minbari government. Though he doesn't know it when he arrives, Sheridan's past plays an important role in the events to come on Babylon 5.

COMMANDER SUSAN IVANOVA Claudia Christian
Of Russian descent, a commanding presence, and quirky at times, somewhat pessimistic. Second in command and in charge of day-to-day operations on Babylon 5. Promoted to rank of Commander in the second season. She hopes one day to command Babylon 5 or her own starship.

TALIA WINTERS Andrea Thompson
Babylon 5's resident telepath, PSI-corps level 5. She received an interesting "gift" (in the first season) that gives her some higher level abilities.

SECURITY CHIEF MICHAEL ALFREDO GARIBALDI Jerry Doyle
In charge of security on Babylon 5. He has a troubled past but was picked by Sinclair for the job. His rank is "Chief Warrant Officer." Strong friends with Sinclair; his relationship with Sheridan started off on shaky ground.

DR. STEPHEN FRANKLIN Richard Biggs
Middle thirties, dedicated and self-assured. His background is mainly in experimental medicine so does not have a good "bedside manner." Dedicated to the point of obsession, and willing to help the needy in unofficial ways.

LIEUTENANT WARREN KEFFER Robert Rusler
Squad Leader for the Zeta Squadron, promoted to squad leader after his commander was killed by a mysterious ship while in Hyperspace. He is obsessed with finding the mysterious ship and proving its existance.

ZACK ALLAN Jeff Conaway
Other assistants to Garibaldi through the first and second season. Zack has signed up for the "Night Watch" program and doesn't realize what he's gotten himself into.

Ambassadors with Staff

AMBASSADOR LONDO MOLLARI Peter Jurasik
Represents the Minbari. Delenn is a member of the Minbari Grey Council and why she is on Babylon 5 as an ambassador is one of the many mysteries on the station in Babylon 5's first season. She believes she is chosen to fulfill a destiny, and sacrifices her power in her government to carry out a prophecy.

AMBASSADOR G'KAR Andreas Katsulas
Represents the Narn Regime. G'Kar is a patriot, always looking for ways to turn situations to the Narn's advantage. Though he at first seems militant, it becomes clear that the Narn are in a great deal of trouble as the Centauri rebuild their presence in the galaxy.

VORLON AMBASSADOR KOSH NARANEK (animatronics)
Chris Franke (voice effects)
Ardwight Chamberlain (translation)
Still very much a mystery after two years on the station. Nobody knows what a Kosh looks like under his "encounter suit" or what he does all day on the station. By the end of season two, Kosh's reasons for involvement in Babylon 5 are only somewhat revealed.

VIR COTTO Stephen Furst
Centauri assistant to Londo. Timid and given little respect by Londo, so far. He must stand by and watch Londo's downfall.

A female Narn, assistant to G'Kar. She replaced Ko'Dath, who had an accident with an airlock shortly after her duties began.
