King's Ransom

The King's Ransom was a Raider-class corvette owned by Imperial captain Cerasus Ehllo. Between 3 ABY and 4 ABY, Ehllo traveled aboard the ship to retrieve his wife Aryssha of the Starros Clan from Hosnian Prime as he had installed a birthing suite on the King's Ransom so that she could give birth to their twins. After storming the Starros family ancestral home, he returned with Aryssha to the ship. Sometime later, the ship was present in the Hosnian sector.

The ship travelled to the Corellian sector to pick up Phel Starros so he could be present when Avon's journals were unlocked. It then went to Hynestia so that Phel could assist in the capture of Thea Starros and Mevera Starros. While there, it was prevented from entering hyperspace by Aryssha who had sliced into her childcare droid and used it to disable the ship's hyperdrive. Lanitra and several of her allies snuck onto the ship disguised as a repair team and knocked out most of the crew with gas. Deva Lompop and Sana Starros boarded the ship shortly after they and Hondo Ohnaka disabled a pair of TIE/IN interceptors that were guarding it. Once all the Imperials were neutralized, they were ejected in escape pods and Lompop commandeered the ship so that she could sell it.
