Agents and armed vessels up to corvette size from the True Empire are permitted to travel and operate in the Dominion, as long as they keep Zsinj informed of their presence and activities.
Ships
Zsinj's Fleet
Most of Zsinj's fleet consists of older Victory I and II-class Star Destroyers, though a scattering of Imperial I and II-classes are also present, mostly in the hands of smaller warlords who have chosen submission to Zsinj rather than destruction at his hands.
Super Star Destroyer Iron Fist
This ship serves as Zsinj’s flagship and mobile capital.
TIE/sk Striker
The TIE/sk atmospheric fighter, also more simply known as the TIE Striker, is a streamlined TIE variant identifiable by its horizontal high-speed wings and large central pod. Though specialized for in-atmosphere missions, the design retains the spaceflight capabilities of the rest of the TIE line. When first assigned to pacify the restive planets of the Quelii oversector, Zsinj made a point of equipping his fleet with Strikers instead of standard TIE fighters.
NPCs
Warlord Zsinj
The most successful of the numerous Imperial naval officers who resorted to warlord-ism after the death of the Emperor, Zsinj earned the rank of Grand Admiral for his successful pacification of restive elements in the Quelii oversector, notably including the Mandalorian resistance led by Bo-Katan. Zsinj achieved victory by suborning some of Bo-Katan's followers and having her drugged before he issued a challenge for the Darksaber. With her abilities impaired, Zsinj was able to defeat her and claim the ancient Mandalorian symbol.
Despite his flamboyant manner, Zsinj is a skilled and pragmatic tactician and strategist, and maintains the loyalty of his people by recognizing and rewarding competence.
Brigadier Baron Rébas Hejaran
As a nobleman from the Tapani Sector, Baron Rébas Hejaran shares with Zsinj both a home region and a flair for theatrics, and can often be seen gesticulating to his troops with his lightfoil.
Commodore Taina Starlancer
Taina Starlancer's lack of political connections to the patronage networks of the Imperial Navy might have significantly hurt her career, if she hadn't fallen into Zsinj's orbit, where her skills caught his attention. Now a commodore in command of a small flotilla, she is intensely loyal to Zsinj.
Kae Wren
One of Zsinj's Mandalorian allies, Kae Wren conspired with Zsinj and Traa Vizsla to betray Bo-Katan Kryze and take her place as leader of Mandalore.
Traa Viszla
One of Zsinj's Mandalorian allies, Traa Vizsla conspired with Zsinj and Kae Wren to betray Bo-Katan Kryze and take her place as leader of Mandalore.
