Great Purge

"This was gathered in the Great Purge."

- An armorer to the Mandalorian bounty hunter

The Great Purge was an event in which the Galactic Empire gathered beskar and stamped it with the Imperial crest. After the Empire's fall, an Imperial remnant had quantities of beskar from the Great Purge, and used one piece as a down payment for hiring the bounty hunter known as "the Mandalorian" for a job. The Mandalorian then brought the piece of beskar to an armorer, who stated that it was gathered in the Great Purge.
