STANDARD FEATURES
ADVANCED SYSTEMS
Strengths:
  • Variety is the Spice of Life: The Rogue Shadow is capable of evading detection, pursuit, and capture with relative ease, boasting a number of features additional to standard Imperial transports helping it do so.
  • Mach Five: In it's day, it had the fastest sublight drives in the Imperial Navy. In its restoration, the same drives were installed despite faster alternatives being available. Still, the speed it is capable of is considerable.
Weaknesses:
  • What Firepower: The Rogue Shadow has high speed, but also low firepower. The ship features only two laser cannons to fend off basic threats, but is often outgunned even by standard fighters.
  • Locked Potential: A capable pilot is needed to truly access the Rogue Shadow's full potential. Regular persons who've only flown cabs or freighters will likely be unable to do anything beyond basic flight controls, and would likely be unable to utilize the ship's more sophisticated features.
Description: The personal starship of Darth Vader's secret apprentice, Galen Marek (also known as Starkiller), the Rogue Shadow was used in various clandestine missions on behalf of the Empire's Supreme Commander. It's design and construction kept a closely guarded secret, it's restoration was a long and arduous process. Digital scans revealed the rough outline of the exterior of the ship, yet the interior and features remained unknown.

After months of intense research, a contract investigator discovered that the ship and its crew had defected to the Rebel Alliance. There, it was refitted and its information on its equipment was a less guarded secret. This revealed only some of the features aboard, and Zeradias was more keen on the original design commissioned by the Galactic Empire of old.

Reaching out to cohorts in the newer Galactic Empire based on Kamino, he was afforded the opportunity to pay a sizeable sum to receive access to select records in the Imperial Archives which would assist him in his endeavors to recreate the destroyed ship. Between the scans, contract investigation, and information revealed by the archives, the records on the Rogue Shadow were roughly 90% complete. Progress stalled on the minute details, Zeradias made the decision to greenlight the restoration.

Iron Crown Enterprises was a prominent corporation in the galaxy known for their part in starship construction. Though there were few other companies ahead of ICE on the list, they lacked the capital and likely the discretion that the corporate juggernaut offered. Six months of laborious work later, the Rogue Shadow v2 was complete, and it was a remarkable piece of craftsmanship indeed. Though significantly smaller, it's extremely limited production, proprietary design, and historical background contributed to it's appraised value near that of a Venator-class Start Destroyer.
