HISTORICAL INFORMATION
When the Brotherhood of the Maw first attempted to launch an offensive into the Core Worlds, the then-Grand Overseer Marlon Sularen was quick to establish a naval task force specifically designed to spearhead this push into the Core Worlds. Dubbed Wraith Squadron after the Sularen's Fleet of the same name during his time within the New Imperial Armada, it first saw action at the Battle of Jedha where it established a blockade over the desert holy world during the Maw's invaison of the planet and was subsequently confronted by the Galactic Alliance's 6th Sector Fleet. However their blockade was broken and the fleet was scattered after the Alliance's counter-attack at Adrathorpe.
After Jedha, Wraith Squadron was disbanded and would remain inactive for a few months before being reassembled on the eve of the Maw's Grand Push into the Core Worlds and seeing action once more during the initial stages of the Maw's Core Campaign at Selvaris and Xa Fel, and later at Tython where it once more suffered more losses during the climatic battle between the Brotherhood of the Maw and the Tython Accords. After Tython, Sularen, who had initially conceived Wraith Squadron and reassembled it, became High Regent of the Final Dawn upon the mysterious disappearance of Derix Tirall, immediately proceeding to begin the process of further strengthen the Final Dawn in preparation for the Alliance's inevitable counter-attack in the form of Project Rejuvenation.
In order to preserve the Final Dawn's holdings in the Maw Corridor, Wraith Squadron was reorganized with surviving ships from Tython being fully repaired and refitted and new ships being added into Wraith Squadron, including ships acquired from the Hapolafey System. With Kaine Hamilton, Wraith Squadron's long-time commanding officer still at the helm and consisting of over two hundred warships both big and small, Wraith Squadron is a force beyond reckoning, serving as the greatest obstacle to the Galactic Alliance's so-called "Liberation Front" dedicated to the reclamation of the worlds within the Maw Corridor.
