Nakia (played by Lupita Nyong’o) – A Wakandan spy who is also T’Challa’s former close friend. Nakia is a figure who is often involved in various conflicts because of her concern for others.

M’Baku (played by Winston Duke) – This character is equipped with wooden Jabari armor and a dangerous war stick weapon. M’Baku is the leader of the Jabari tribe, a group of Wakandan residents who opposed the use of vibranium and later isolated themselves from Wakandan society.
