Pursuer

The Pursuer was an Imperial I-class Star Destroyer that was in service to the Imperial Navy of the Galactic Empire. The Pursuer became the headquarters of the Empire's 204th Imperial Fighter Wing, and assisted the fighter wing in a number of operations. The Star Destroyer earned its name as a result of a chase through the Redspace Reefs.

Following the Battle of Endor and the death of the Galactic Emperor in 4 ABY, the Pursuer jumped between star systems in search of a winnable fight until it received new orders, the initiation of Operation: Cinder. As part of the operation, the Star Destroyer deployed the 204th at the planet Nacronis, where the fighter wing devastated the world. After Nacronis, the vessel continued moving between battles, the 204th's Commanding officer Colonel Shakara Nuress searching for an organized Imperial leadership.

The Pursuer received much damage and was forced to fall back, entrenching at the planet Pandem Nai. As the 204th conducted operations against outposts and New Republic scouts, the Star Destroyer helped destroy some outposts with possible communication abilities. After, the vessel returned to Pandem Nai and begun repairs. However, the New Republic attacked the 204th at the world and forced the fighter wing to retreat, leaving the Pursuer behind.
