Emperor's Hand

Canon Legends version → Linked from 21 articles

Emperor's Hands were secretive operatives of the Galactic Empire that conducted their covert operations from VT-49 Decimators. At one point during the Imperial Era, a group of individuals were tasked with rescuing a prominent and outspoken celebrity and transport them to safety. When the individuals approached the celebrity, a VT-49 Decimator carrying one of the Emperor's Hands arrived and were tasked with ending the trouble-making subversive permanently.

In 2 BBY, Imperial Viceroy and Governor of Mandalore Gar Saxon was an Emperor's Hand. Saxon led the Imperial Super Commandos, a group of elite Mandalorian warriors loyal to the Galactic Empire. Saxon was eventually killed during a skirmish on Krownest against Mandalorian Clan Wren. The Sith Lord Darth Vader, the Sith apprentice and enforcer of Palpatine, was also identified as the Emperor's Hand and Fist.
