The Avenger was an Executor-Class Star Dreadnaught, more commonly called a Super Star Destroyer that served as the Brotherhood's flagship from the construction of the Emperor's Hammer's flagship, the Sovereign, until an unknown time.
It was traditionally attached to both the Dark Brotherhood and the TIE Corps, at one point having up to two wings of active TIE Corps pilots. However, nearly every pilot assigned to the Avenger was part of the Brotherhood, and at most times of its service as a Brotherhood Vessel, the TIE Corps Squadron Commanders, Wing Commanders and the ship's commodore were chosen only from Brotherhood personnel. Despite the fact that the Sith were traditionally pilots, all three orders were able to serve equally aboard the Avenger, their TIE Corps rank taking precedence over their Brotherhood rank. There was no set house or clan for Avenger pilots.
The Avenger accompanied Firefox and the Dark Brotherhood during the Exodus, but soon after its crew decided to go its own way. The ship has not been in contact with the Brotherhood or the Dark Council since its depature. Some say it soon returned to the Emperor's Hammer, but a report from Battlelord Andrelious J. Inahj states that that Avenger is a new ship built to the same specs.
Commodores
As the Avenger was a TIE Corps ship, it was given a Commodore much like other TIE Corps ships. Only Commodores from its time as a DB affiliated ship are listed.
This last is far from complete.
- ??-??: Firefox
- ??-13 April 2003: Shadowhawk
Wing Commanders
The Avenger had, at times, two active wings of TIE Corps pilots. Again, the majority were selected from DJB members.
