Belsavis Star Fortress

The Star Fortress over Belsavis was one of many dozens, if not hundreds of Star Fortresses deployed by Emperor Arcann of the Eternal Empire to watch for possible uprisings on worlds subjugated during the Eternal Empire conquest. It was commanded by Exarch Forta Gair and protected by multiple Skytroopers and Knights of Zakuul. The Star Fortresses was sending shuttles to the lower levels of the Belsavis prison and freeing the prisoners there, allowing them to wreck havoc. In 3631 BBY the Whiphid recruiter K'krohl teamed up with the Commander of the Anti-Zakuul Alliance to take down the Star Fortress. Together they assembled a strike team that assaulted and destroyed the Belsavis shield bunker protecting the Star Fortress before regrouping on the Alliance base on Odessen. From there, Theron Shan and Miot Dengd assisted the Commander in infiltrating the Star Fortress. After fighting their way through multiple levels of the station, the Commander was able to reach the Sun Generator room and engage the Exarch directly. During the fierce fighting, safety features of the Sun Generator were disabled and Exarch Forta Gair was killed. The Commander barely managed to escape on the shuttle before the Sun Generator overloaded, vaporizing the entire Star Fortress and all of its remaining personnel.
