Paz Vizsla
Paz Vizsla is a fictional character in the "Star Wars" franchise who appears in the Disney+ television series "The Mandalorian". He is a member of a tribe of Mandalorian warriors along with the show's protagonist, who is known simply as "The Mandalorian". Paz initially clashes with him, but later assists the Mandalorian's rescue of "The Child" from a remnant of the Galactic Empire.

Strong and physically imposing, Paz is a heavy infantry fighter who uses a large minigun-like blaster, as well as a jet pack. Paz Vizsla is voiced by Jon Favreau, the creator and showrunner of "The Mandalorian". Favreau also voiced Pre Vizsla, another Mandalorian character with the same last name, in the computer-animated television series "Star Wars: The Clone Wars". In-universe, Viszla is the name of one of the largest Mandalorian clans, so it makes sense that another character with the same last name would appear (though it is unknown if Paz was born into the clan or if he was a Foundling). The live-action body double for Paz Vizsla was Tait Fletcher, a stunt performer and former mixed martial artist, who also played a different character in the season premiere of "The Mandalorian".

Paz Vizsla has received a positive response from fans and reviewers; "Inverse" writer Jake Kleinman called him a "fan-favorite character" who made a large impact despite his relatively brief running time. Several action figures and toys of the character have been produced and sold.
