Soulless One/Legends

Soulless One Soulless One was the personal starfighter of General Grievous, used during the Clone Wars for the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

Soulless One was a modified Belbullab-22 starfighter, a fast and agile prong-shaped vessel produced by Feethan Ottraw Scalable Assemblies. Grievous considered his fighter to be a vision of the future of warfare, with a powerful arsenal consisting of two sets of triple rapid-fire laser cannons. The starfighter was easily able to match the Porax-38 starfighter for speed, fitted with twin ion drives and a powerful hyperdrive.

Grievous outfitted Soulless One with a deflector shield, and had the entire hull coated in a thin layer of impervium, making the fighter inpenetrable to all but the heaviest of enemy fire. The starfighter was originally designed for a biological pilot, and the one-being cockpit was thus equipped with a life-support system. This feature came in useful when Obi-Wan Kenobi, having destroyed Grievous on Utapau, appropriated the late General's starfighter, and used it to reach safe refuge with Bail Organa aboard Tantive IV.

Soulless One remained in Tantive IV's docking bay until Kenobi used it to reach Nar Shaddaa, with the infant Luke Skywalker. There, Obi-Wan sold the starfighter for passage to the Tatoo system. Soulless One was eventually tracked down by one of Obi-Wan's old enemies, who reported the ship to the local Imperial authorities. Imperial forces brought it to Emperor Palpatine's secret storehouse on Utapau, where it was kept for use by the N-K Necrosis droid during the Galactic Civil War.
