Tyrant

The Tyrant was an Imperial Star Destroyer that formed part of Death Squadron, Darth Vader's personal fleet of Star Destroyers designed to hunt down enemies of the Empire. The Tyrant was originally the most powerful Star Destroyer in the Inner Colonies due to its impressive array of shields and weaponry. Vader believed that endless patrols of docile Inner Colony worlds was belittling to a battleship of such power and had it re-assigned.

The Tyrant participated on the attack on the Rebel Outpost on Hoth, only to be the first Star Destroyer to be taken offline by the massive planetside Ion Cannon, which ripped through the ship's shields with its blasts and took the vessel completely offline. After finally re-establishing power, the Tyrant limped away from the system, only to be subsequently boarded by Rebel Operatives.

The resulting firefight proved devastating for the crew of the Tyrant. Unprepared and under-equipped, the crew were quickly annihilated and the Tyrant was put under Rebel control. Renamed the Rebel Dream, it later became the personal flagship of none other than Darth Vader's daughter, Princess Leia Organa.
