'''''Shadowstone''''' is an [[Imperial Star Destroyer]] once famously captured by [[Keir Santage]], [[Finn Setanta]] and [[Squall Chitose]] who were working in the employment of King [[Eldrik Kuraine]] of the [[Falleen Federation]]. A lengthy battle was fought to seize the ship chiefly through the attackers bringing aboard large amounts of [[Battle Droid]]s under their command, and fighting the Imperial stormtroopers aboard the ship.

'''''Shadowstone''''' was an [[Imperial Star Destroyer]] commissioned into service in Year 3 as flagship of the Fakir Sector Fleet.  Vice Admiral [[Vir Calder]] broke his flag on this ship during the commissioning ceremony. In late Year 3, it became the first Star Destroyer to receive a the upgraded hyperspeed developed by engineers of the Imperial Research and Development, which was a department headed by Calder.
  
Notable incidents in this battle included the wookiee [[Ralgarrch]] squeezing into a turbo-lift maintenance shaft to chase the more nimble [[Siather]] during her attempts at escape, [[Keir Santage]] accidentally tossing an extra grenade into a fray resulting in damage to his own battle droids, the death of [[Doug|Doug the Battledroid]], and the baking of cookies in the mess hall after the battle was concluded by [[Adam A Flynn]]. [[Keir Santage]] also managed to rescue an injured female Imperial officer from a bacta tank, however it is unclear what happened to her after she escaped with him. Towards the end of the battle, the betrayal of Xarius Tylger was revealed. Xarius's droids were equipped with slave commands by Kuraine, and he took direct control to of them to attack Xarius. Tylger was wounded, but was able to initiate the command codes to the bombs he had smuggled aboard to destroy the ship. [[Squall Chitose]] was nearby and saved the ship by disarming the bombs and shooting Tylger in the face.

Events The Shadowstone Affair

Shadowstone was an Imperial Star Destroyer commissioned into service in Year 3 as flagship of the Fakir Sector Fleet. Vice Admiral Vir Calder broke his flag on this ship during the commissioning ceremony. In late Year 3, it became the first Star Destroyer to receive a the upgraded hyperspeed developed by engineers of the Imperial Research and Development, which was a department headed by Calder.

Shadowstone was involved in the Battle of Berchest in mid-Year 4 and the Shadowstone Affair later in the same year. In the latter action, Keir Santage, Finn Setanta and Squall Chitose, working in the employment of King Eldrik Kuraine of the Falleen Federation, wrested control of the ship from the Empire. Santage presented the ship to King Kuraine, who then turned and gifted the vessel to Hapan officer Alex Tylger. Subsequent history of the ship became unclear. It was rumored that Shadowstone was later given by King Alex to Roan Axios.

The lost of Shadowstone by the Empire directly led to the punitive expedition to the Beta System.
