Sin Squadron is a Deep Space Depredation squadron assigned to Wing II on the Imperial-II Class Star Destroyer Warrior. On May 14, 2014, Sin Squadron became the fourth squadron activated in Wing II.

In 2020, Sin Squadron was the first to complete 10 tasks in Squadron (Re)Mobilization 2 and earned the right to change their objective and fighters (including any EH-created craft). They created a new fighter, the TIE Sinister, and created a new objective as well. Their new role, Deep Space Depredation, is defined as "To execute strategic attacks on objectives behind the front lines. Once targets are destroyed, the squadron may either return or attack targets of opportunity. Depending on the targets, these operations can have both psychological and physical effects on the enemy's war effort."

TIE Sinister

As prize for their winning efforts in Squadron (Re)Mobilization 2 in 2020, Sin Squadron were awarded their own custom craft, the TIE Sinister. The TIE Sinister was a TIE Protector repainted in sleek black. According to Terrik, GA Rapier personally requested production of twelve such craft as an award to the winning squadron. Sin's TIE Sinisters were customized with air conditioning and cupholders, per the CMDR's request.

Trivia

Historically, squadrons of Wing II are named after letters of the Greek alphabet, following the convention of the X-Wing video games series. However, Sin Squadron is the lone exception to this convention. When the Warrior was activated on 31 March 2014, Alpha, Gamma, and Lambda Squadrons of the Hammer transferred to become Sigma, Kappa, and Theta, respectively. A fourth active squadron was planned for the Warrior, and the ship's Commodore, HA Frodo March, had Wing II squadrons Psi, Rho, Sin to choose from (Sin, a letter in many Semitic alphabets, having replaced Omega in Wing II some time earlier.) In his first report as Warrior Commodore, HA Frodo March wrote, "I chose Sin because the word play possibilities are just endless. Should be a good time."

Signature Spirit

Sin Squadron's preferred drink is Sinfire, a spicy liquor that also boasts a rich, smooth flavor that remains versatile for mixed drinks. While under the command of Zekk Terrik, Sin Squadron's signature spirit was Zekks on the Beach.
