Ships

Super Star Destroyer Sheev Palpatine

The flagship of the True Empire’s fleet, this Executor-class vessel was rechristened to honor the late Emperor.

TIE/Ad Avenger

The TIE Avenger is a multi-purpose starfighter developed from the TIE Advanced x1 flown by Lord Vader at the Battle of Yavin as one of the Empire’s many proposed answers to the T-65 X-wing starfighter; it won out over the competing TIE Defender design on the basis of its lower cost and the ability to be launched from existing TIE racks. However, the Battle of Endor pre-empted the existing plans to put the craft into large-scale production, leaving the Avenger as a rarity assigned only to the most skilled aces of the True Empire's fleet... at least for now.

NPCs

Grand Moff Phedrik Tarkin

A cousin of the late Wilhuff Tarkin, Phedrik was holding the governorship of Seswenna Sector when Palpatine died at the Battle of Endor, and quickly emerged as one of the most prominent New Orderist leaders when the Empire splintered after Leia Organa's coronation. Now styling himself a Grand Moff, Tarkin commands a large swath of the Outer Rim, directly and through various vassals.

Grand Vizier Mas Amedda

After serving as Vice Chair of the Senate throughout Palpatine's tenure as Supreme Chancellor of the Republic, Mas Amedda remained a close ally to the Emperor, stepping away from the Senate as its powers waned and taking up a position as Palpatine's Grand Vizier.

After Palpatine's death, he was pressured by Admiral Kenatus of the Capital Fleet into accepting Leia Organa's claim to the Imperial throne. At first it seemed that this was the end of his career in politics, as the new Empress first dismissed him and then abolished his position, but New Order loyalists made contact with him and smuggled him to the Seswenna sector, where his recognition has served to buttress Tarkin's claims of legitimacy.

Colonel Viktr Techt

A Royal Guard who had been rotated into frontline service when the Battle of Endor occurred, Viktr Techt attached himself to Phedrik Tarkin. He now commands the True Empire's elite forces, including a number of other former Royal Guards. Techt and his fellow guards have discarded their pure red armor in favor of chrome-plated stormtrooper armor, at least until such time as Phedrik actually becomes Emperor, but they have retained their cloaks, converting them into dramatic black-edged mourning capes.
