4 ABY
By approximately 4 ABY, the Imperial II-class Star Destroyer Relentless Prosecutor was constructed, completed, and comissioned by the Galactic Empire from the Kuat Drive Yards shipyards orbiting over the industrial world of Fondor. It was commanded by Captain Rath, an experienced naval officer looking forward to promotion to the rank of commodore. It was sent to the assembled Imperial Star Destroyer armada massing over the forest moon of Endor, when Imperial Intelligence detected several well-known Rebel Alliance agents on the surface of the planet of Tatooine, namely the saboteur C-3PO, propaganda spreader R2-D2, and the Rebel imprisoners Princess Leia and Luke Skywalker. However, it was a well-orchestrated trap by the Rebels, who assailed the Relentless Prosecutor as it reverted from realspace with six squadrons of B-wings and the Rebel Assault Frigate Tyrant's Bane. The Rebel naval forces opened up on the Imperial II-class Star Destroyer, when an engineering failure during construction catastrophically failed to maintain the deflector shields after the first enemy hits. The Relentless Prosecutor was captured by ion cannons and boarding craft, and was renamed the Relentless Recusant - the unwavering rebel.

4 - 6.5 ABY
It was meant to participate in the Battle of Endor on the side of the Rebel Alliance, but the battle was a week over by the time that the shielding glitch was corrected and the Imperial crewmen were shipped off from the Star Destroyer. Its new commander was then-Captain Brand. In between the time of the Battle of Endor and the Liberation of Coruscant, it participated in several prolonged campaigns alongside the major New Republic battlecruisers Home One and Mon Remonda. Its appreciable nearly two-fold improvement of weaponry over the original Imperial I-class Star Destroyer and additional shielding was a welcome asset for the fledgling New Republic.

6.5 - 16 ABY
The Relentless Recusant was one of three New Republic Star Destroyers that battled Galactic Empire forces during the Liberation of Coruscant. It was held as a rear guard with the Interdictor Cruiser Corusca Rainbow to prevent any Galactic Empire reinforcements from jumping the bulk of the advancing New Republic fleet. Because of the lack of any reinforcements, it did not fire any shots during the Liberation of Coruscant.

However, it did participate in the Thrawn campaign. It fought in the Siege of Coruscant, and sustained heavy damage from combined fire from the enemy Star Destroyers Chimaera and Death's Head. However, the withdrawal of the Death's Head to prevent hits from a planetary ion cannon gave the Relentless Recusant a reprieve, and it was able to retreat while suffering strafing runs from a handful of TIE fighters.

Due to the severity of its damages, the Relentless Recusant was withdrawn from active service during the Battle of Bilbringi. However, it was successfuly repaired, and between 9 to 15 ABY, it valiantly served on defense duties around the notable worlds of Coruscant and Thyferra. However, in 15 ABY, Captain Brand was promoted to rank of commodore and given command of the Majestic-class heavy cruiser Indomitable and also of Task Force Aster in the inaugural creation of the New Republic Fifth Fleet from mainly New Class ships.

17 ABY
After the transfer of Commodore Brand to the Indomitable, the Relentless Recusant was assigned to the New Republic Fifth Fleet as well after the disasterous defeat in the Battle of Doornik-319. It was the escort of the Endurance-class fleet carrier Intrepid during the Battle of N'zoth. However, early in the battle, it took concentrated fire from three Yevethan thrustships. Its bow shields were immediately lowered, and then a Yevethan joint missile and kamikaze strike hit the launch deck, destroying three full squadrons of E-wing interceptor escorts. A hangar fire started, destroying seventeen X-wings and killing dozens of hangar crewmen before it could be extinguished. However, it was still in the fight, and with the Intrepid, it destroyed two of the thrustships before the last fell to a K-wing bombing run.

18 ABY-68 ABY
Its fighters were fully restocked, and the Relentless Recusant was also equipped with a quartet of gravity well generators and a second flight deck. These modifications eliminated over two-thirds of its weapon batteries, but it was filled with 72 E-wings, 36 X-wings, and 36 K-wings. The heavily modified warship, now classified as an Interdiction Fleet Carrier was on routine patrol over Thyferra, and was on an outbound hyperspace trajectory towards a new patrol schedule towards the Koornacht Cluster, when it itself was interdicted by Hapan-made pulse mass mines half a light-year away from Abraegado-Rae by unknown forces...the Relentless Recusant was not seen again until 69 ABY.

69 ABY
The Dark Core Crisis began in 69 ABY. The Galactic Alliance was prospering: the Dark Lord of the Sith, Jacen Solo, had been struck down by a team of Jedi, including Jaina Solo, Mara Jade Skywalker, Luke Skywalker, and Zekk. No Jedi had been killed after 50 ABY, when Jacen Solo had fallen under the blade of a Jedi lightsaber.

That was when, on a heavily armored XX-5 interstellar armored personnel transport, Mara Jade, Tahiri Veila, and Yurr Ajiin, an undistinguished male Nautolian Jedi, were interdicted between Onderon and Coruscant by the Relentless Recusant. The Interdiction Fleet Carrier had been heavily modified, with sufficient upgrades that cost over twice as much as creating the original Imperial II-class Star Destroyer. In a manner akin to the Battle of the Tampion in the Black Fleet Crisis, three Yevethan Spaar-class thrustships hit the XX-5 transport Just Cause with a salvo of ion cannon fire. As the electronic systems onboard went offline, the six XV3-wing starfighters escorting the Just Cause were also ionized before they could fire a shot. The Relentless Recusant activated its multiple tractor beams, drawing in the seven adrift Galactic Alliance warships. The XX-5 carrier was boarded first, and in a blindingly powerful storm of raging Force lightning, all three Jedi were incapacitated and taken hostage as the X-wing pilots were also stunned and captured...

A day later, several hours before the Just Cause was due over Coruscant, massive war fleets of unidentified warships of unknown allegiance assaulted the tremendous Galactic Alliance defense fleets over Kuat, Corellia, and Borleias. As all HoloNet transmissions in those systems were jammed, the unknown fleets decimated the Galactic Alliance forces in orbit, and then took three of the most powerful worlds of the Galactic Alliance. Shortly afterwards, Fondor and Thyferra were savagely attacked and defeated.

From the bridge of the Colossus-class Super Star Destroyer Revan, a dark figure proclaimed to the galaxy of the formation of a new, great Galactic Empire. The nine hostages taken from the Just Cause and its starfighter escorts were also shown.

Chief of State Kresi Omas, the male human ruler of the Galactic Republic, met with hundreds of military officers, and also Jedi Corran Horn in Tactical Center Nine on Coruscant, near where the Invisible Hand had landed nearly ninety standard years ago. That was when the spirit of Count Dooku attacked Kresi Omas, controlling the Chief of State and transforming him into a conduit for the Sith Lord's power. The dark spirit drew his former, curved, anode lightsaber into Kresi's hand, and possesed, Omas stabbed Corran Horn in the chest, and then declared the Jedi as traitors to the Galactic Republic, blaming Jacen Solo for the deaths of millions. Many of his tactical staff followed him, brainwashed, and those that did not were summarily decapitated by Kresi's lightsaber.

Yet, Luke Skywalker, along with a dozen Jedi, had come to TacCom-9 before Kresi Omas had been possessed, feeling a strong disturbance in the Force. They found Kresi Omas, and Luke realized that he had been possessed by the spirit of a Sith, apparantly a strong one, if Omas was able to kill Corran Horn. Luke Skywalker confronted Kresi Omas, when the Jedi was shot in the back by a Galactic Alliance staffer. Then, Omas shocked the Jedi Master into unconsciousness with his trademark Force lightning, and then dueled four Jedi Knights in sequence, burning down the inexperienced guardians of peace with his blade. However, before Luke could arise again, he fled towards his personal hangar, taking a cloaked attack shuttle. As he took off, and four Jedi leapt into four XV3-wing starfighters behind him, he influenced the mind of Commander Raech, the captain of the Star Destroyer Purity, which was assigned to defend TacCom-9 from any aerial invasions. A Jedi fell to a fusillade from the shuttle's rear guns, and the three others were vaporized by turbolaser blasts from the Purity.

Omas sped outsystem, undetectable, but managed to sneak out a systemwide transmission that commanded all Galactic Alliance forces to open fire on the traitorous Jedi, and that Jacen Solo had been responsible for the deaths of millions. Many commanders were unsure, while a handful followed the orders of Kresi Omas. As they manuevered their orbital warships to attack the complex of Jedi Temples on the surface, others that disobeyed their Chief of State's orders opened fire on those Galactic Alliance starships, and chaos began. Starship turned against starship, and gunships and starfighters assaulted each other through the canyons of Coruscant, killing thousands in minutes. Multiple Galactic Alliance starships crashed into the ground,
