History
The Immortal was one of the last of the old Imperial class vessels to be upgraded to Imperial II class. Prior to the creation of the SSD Executor, the ISD Immortal and its sister ship the ISD Devestator served as personal vessels for Lord Vader. The Immortal and its fighters ambushed the Tantive IV en route to Alderaan with the Death Star plans. It then led several attacks on Rebel freighters and cruisers, just before the destruction of the Death Star.
The Immortal and the Devestator, along with the ISD Garrett and the ISD Avenger, were latter attached to the Exceutor as part of its battlegroup. After the Battle of Endor, the Immortal was though to be lost. However, a short circuit in the ship's hyperdrive engine had instead caused the ship to become stranded.
After limping along through space in the Outer Rim, the Immortal finally managed to reach the Aurora Sector and the Emperor's Hammer Strike Fleet. For the first time since Endor, the Immortal was again back in Imperial service.
Background
Decommissioning
At the time of its decommissioning, members of its active squadrons were redistributed as follows:
- Demon Squadron moved to Dagger Squadron onboard the Relentless
- Ghost Squadron moved to Typhoon Squadron onboard the Challenge
- Phantom Squadron moved to Tornado Squadron onboard the Challenge
- Vampire Squadron moved to Eta Squadron onboard the Colossus
Additionally, its Wing Commander at the time, Colonel Gunman, would soon be appointed to the Colossus as its Commodore. RogueWing, the Immortal's final Commodore, resigned in protest of the ship's closure.
