Aurora Flare

The Aurora Flare was a Mon Calamari Star Cruiser that was part of the Mon Cala Imperial Trade Fleet of the Galactic Empire and carried a shipment of coaxium. After the trade fleet mutinied, the Aurora Flare joined the Alliance to Restore the Republic, and in an effort to break the Imperial blockade of Mon Cala, the vessel's captain, Lila, piloted the Aurora Flare near Imperial Admiral Meori's Star Destroyer in order to bait it. The ruse worked, and the Meori's ship fired on the Aurora Flare, causing its coaxium shipment to explode and destroying both ships. Aurora Flare sacrifice allowed for the remaining vessels to escape the blockade.
