Vessel Info

The Starwind-class pleasure yacht was a luxury starship produced by Kuat Drive Yards. It was originally intended to compete with CEC's YT series transport vessels.

History

The Emperor's Will is a relatively new addition to the Clan fleet. It was claimed by the Clan as part of its' spoils after the Fifth Great Jedi War. Little was then known to the reason why it was selected as part of the Clan's spoils, but the Clan Summit were far-seeing as to the need for this vessel. The ship was acquired from the Dark Council in almost-new condition, the only marring coming from some spilled brandy that was put in place after an unsanctioned joyride by an as-yet undisclosed Dark Council member.

Deployment

Although an odd fit for the Clan fleet, the Emperor's Will does have a very important mission. While retaining many of its' comforts, it has also been retrofitted recently as an emergency escape vehicle. Clan Scholae Palatinae created a new hardened shelter for the ship at the Clan headquarters building over on Judecca, capable of withstanding almost any bombardment. Furthermore, it has also been heavily defended against any possible ground infiltration, as this ship is the last escape method left for the Clan Summit.

The ship only joins in with the rest of the Clan fleet on extremely rare occasions, and those usually are drills that practice escape procedures for the Clan Summit. Rumor has it that the Clan Summit will be slowly upgrading the ships' defenses to further protect their precious cargo.
