Basilisk (Star Destroyer)

Basilisk was an Imperial I-class Star Destroyer, under the command of Captain Mullinore, serving as part of Admiral Daala's four-Star Destroyer squadron. After the destruction of Hydra, Daala ordered Basilisk to pursue the Sun Crusher piloted by Han Solo and Kyp Durron and was caught in a battle between Moruth Doole's Kessel forces and the Millennium Falcon. During the battle against Daala, Basilisk sustained heavy damage.

Basilisk would go on to participate in actions against a New Republic colony on Dantooine and in an assault on the Mon Calamari homeworld of Dac&mdash;its sister ship, Manticore, was lost in combat. After the battle, Basilisk and Gorgon retreated to the Cauldron Nebula where Daala hatched a plan to drive Basilisk into the surface of Coruscantwith a skeleton crew, but the plot was foiled when Durron arrived with the Sun Crusher and set the nebula into supernova. Basilisk was caught in the explosions. Fortunately the majority of the crew was transferred to the Gorgon, leaving minor amount of crew aboard when it was destroyed.
