Lucid Voice was built by the Quarren Free Dac Volunteers Engineering Corps—much to the displeasure of the Mon Cals who share their planet with the Quarren." - ―An Imperial technician informs Moff Wilhuff Tarkin of the origins of the Lucid Voice
The Free Dac Volunteers Engineering Corps, also known as Quarren Free Dac Volunteers Engineering Corps or QFD, was a starship manufacturer active during the Clone Wars. They were most notoriously known for producing the Providence-class Dreadnought.[3] The QFD was primarily comprised of Quarrens, a species native to the planet Dac, who had allied themselves with the Confederacy of Independent Systems. They had a partnership with Pammant Docks,[1] and factories located on the planet of the same name.[3]
The Quarren official Tikkes represented the QFD in the Confederacy.[7] Five years after the Clone Wars conclusion, a modified warship attacked Sentinel Base, a remote Imperial outpost. Scans revealed that some components of the ship were from the Invincible and the Lucid Voice, Providence-class cruiser-carriers manufactured by the Free Dac Volunteers Engineering Corps. The Empire launched an investigation into whether QFD or Pammant Docks assisted in the assembly of the warship.[1]
