501st Legion (Empire of the Hand)

"I think we should name the new unit the Five-oh-First."

- Taxtro Grave

501st Legion was a stormtrooper unit in the service of the Empire of the Hand. It was founded on the order of Senior Captain Thrawn by the members of the Hand of Judgment&mdash;Daric LaRone, Korlo Brightwater, Taxtro Grave, Saberan Marcross and Joak Quiller. Differently from the original unit of the Galactic Empire, the 501st also welcomed the aliens into their ranks. Unit Aurek-Seven belonged to this organization.

The official reinstatement of the 501st was done by Senior Captain Voss Parck.
