The Valkyrie is a recent addition to the Clan’s Order of Battle, as it was captured during the initial days of the defeat of our enemies in the star cluster the Brotherhood claimed as its’ own after the flight from the Emperor’s Hammer.

The Valkyrie was part of a fair-sized pirate fleet at the time, and after the identification of it by our Clans’ recon elements, a hasty capture operation was mounted. It was surrounded by and captured along with a Gallofree Medium Transport by the Excidium and Victory, along with the help of the Clans’ gunboats. It was then taken to the Brotherhoods’ shipyards (Which were captured themselves by the members of the Dark Council), and because of the effectiveness and loyalty of the Clan to the Council, the Clan was awarded their choice of parts to upgrade the newly captured ships.

History

The Valkyrie is a recent addition to the Clan’s Order of Battle, as it was captured during the initial days of the defeat of our enemies in the star cluster the Brotherhood claimed as its’ own after the flight from the Emperor’s Hammer. During those days, a warrior species lived in the cluster, and was forcibly removed from it by the Brotherhood. Since this species had quite a large fleet (Not to mention quite a few pirates living in the area), the Dark Council decided to remove this threat once and for all, and gave the green light to all of the Clans to capture as many ships as it could from these rouge pirates. The Valkyrie was part of a fair-sized pirate fleet at the time, and after the identification of it by our Clans’ recon elements, a hasty capture operation was mounted. It was surrounded by and captured along with a Gallofree Medium Transport by the Excidium and Victory, along with the help of the Clans’ gunboats. It was then taken to the Brotherhoods’ shipyards (Which were captured themselves by the members of the Dark Council), and because of the effectiveness and loyalty of the Clan to the Council, the Clan was awarded their choice of parts to upgrade the newly captured ships. After some debate with the senior members of the Clan, the suggested updates were then placed. Due to the modular nature of the ship, the Clan was easily able to add in a pair of gravity well projectors, as well as completely overhaul the shields and systems. It was one of the first ships to emerge completely repaired from the shipyards, and was quickly placed into service, usually serving alongside with the Excidium. The Captain of the Valkyrie is Devhe Rubro, a member of House Dorimad Sol that showed an aptitude towards the command of a capital ship. After extensive training by Commander Sommetra and Quaestor Timbal, she is has been placed in command of the ship, but still under the orders of Commander Sommetra or any senior member of the Clan or House Summits.

Concerning the history of the Valkyrie before its’ capture, nothing much was discovered, as the capture operation as well as the acts of the pirates crewing her wiped out most of the ship’s log before the Clan was able to capture her. Still, some has been recovered. The origins of the ship are rather hard to find, as no one can as yet seem to find a serial number that has not been erased, but odds are that it was a system patrol ship that was captured by a group of pirates. Due to markings found in various parts of the ship, it seems to have changed hands no less than three times, and remarkably enough it seems to be in general good shape for such a checkered history.

Recently, during the last stages of the Fifth Great Jedi War, the Clan was in deep trouble, as a sudden Taldryan-Arconian invasion fleet arrived above Antenora. While trying to relieve the blockade until the rest of the Clan fleet could jump in, the Valkyrie, under the temporary command of Sith Quaestor Phoenix, forced the Lancer-class Bloodfang to withdraw from the battle. It managed to defend itself admirably against the first wave of attacks from the other ships, but then was mauled by the Modified Dreadnaught-class Dark Seraphim. Losing its’ engine power, it crashed into Antenora. Although most of the armor and weapons, as well as the engines had to be replaced, the structural skeleton of the ship mostly remained intact, allowing the Clan to revive and repair the ship back up to fighting trim, although at hideous cost. The ship now stands ready to defend the Clan alongside with the rest of the fleet.
