The Solari is an MC80 Liberty type Star Cruiser serving as a flagship for Clan Odan-Urr's military forces. Positioned as a command ship within the Odanite Expeditionary Force, the vessel has spearheaded multiple engagements and held the line in various defensive actions since its accquesition. Pressed into service in 34 ABY, it was attained shortly after the Fall of New Tython and named after one of the elders killed during the withdrawal of that planet. Enduring throughout multiple changes within the fleet, it and the two MC40a light cruisers Remembrance of Seher and Rohlan's Vision serve as a symbol of the Clan's survival against all odds.

Characteristics
A common variant of the MC80 Star Cruiser line, the Liberty type was a more standardized version of the typically individually unique Mon Calamari built vessels. With a distinctive semi-conical swept-swing design ending in three clusters of powerful engines, the vessel's broad profile allows it to maintain heavy firepower from its forward arcs without compromising its effectiveness from other angles. The countless blisters that coat the ship's hull are covered in a variety of different systems, ranging from turbolaser cannons to deflector shield projectors, tractor beam projectors, and ion cannons.
While less heavily armed than Star Destroyer variants typically fielded by the Galactic Empire, the improved targeting systems on the MC80s weapons gave them far greater effectiveness. This allowed them to able to track and destroy fighters and smaller craft. Furthermore, advanced shielding technology accompanied by multiple redundant and backup systems gave the ships a far greater level of endurance during engagements. The nature of the various blisters prevented vital components from being so easily identified and targeted in battles, while the bridge was sunken into the main hull toward the vessel's aft, denying fighters an exposed weak point.
The MC80 carried a standard complement of 36 fighters in its hangers during campaigns, though this number could be further extended when required. This made the vessel an effective combat carrier, giving it a multi-role edge needed in engagements.
Following its victory in the Battle of Arx, Clan Odan-Urr was gifted with a Battle Meditation Chamber to enhance and expand the Battle Meditation abilities of certain users, giving them the ability to substantially influence the outcome of any conflict. This further improved the importance of the Solari as a major flagship of the fleet, giving the O.E.F. a significant edge in major engagements.
History
Brought into service in 34 ABY, the origins of the Solari are a mystery lost to time. In the chaos following the attempted genocide of Clan Odan-Urr and the populace of New Tython, the records detailing how it was attained are sketchy at best. Some cite an exchange similar to that of the Rohlan's Vision while others outline a broader plan involving the construction of the vessel. In either case, its presence could not have come at a better time. Serving as a vital HQ for the clan, it was used to guard and guide the bands of survivors withdrawing from Brotherhood space, while its hangars repaired and refueled smaller vessels.
When Clan Odan-Urr eventually settled in the Vatali Empire, the Solari retained its importance as a vital component within its navy. Retaining its role as a command area and mobile base, it was used to direct and coordinate smaller strikes while the Clan established infrastructure on its new worlds. When the time came, it helped to spearhead attacks against Brotherhood targets, and was one of the major ships that participated in the raid on the Edrien shipyards where Odanite and Arconan forces were drawn into a trap. Even as they faced staggering odds, both fleets were able to escape with minimal casualties, thanks to the actions of ships like the Solari.
Its targets eventually changed with the appearance of the Collective, and its role proved vital in breaking through the orbital defenses surrounding Nancora before covering ground troops. It would repeat this action again during the second major battle against Collective remnants, and again during the offensive against Meridian Prime space station. This role would become more limited thanks to a renewed offensive by the Vauzem Dominion against Odan-Urr's home territories and its allies, and the ship would be pinned down in a years-long stalemate between the two sides. It would take the Collective attack on Arx for it to be brought fully back to the frontlines. This would see the ship upgraded following gifts bestowed to the Clan for their efforts, notably a Meditation Chamber to enhance the abilities of its members.
