- "One warship can only destroy so much."
"Tell that to Taris." - ―Kira Carsen and Var Suthra discuss the Oppressor
The Oppressor was a Harrower-class dreadnought that served as the flagship of Darth Angral during the Cold War.
History
Edit
This vessel was used by Darth Angral during the Cold War while he sent his apprentices after the Republic's weapons.
He executed Orgus Din from the bridge of the cruiser while broadcasting it live on the HoloNet.
The vessel was eventually destroyed during its attack on Tython. A Jedi Knight boarded the vessel with the Padawan Kira Carsen, sabotaged its energy generators and killed Darth Angral.
Behind the scenesEdit
The Oppressor's original appearance
The Oppressor first appeared in The Old Republic, Threat of Peace Act 3: Uncertain Surrender, an issue of the Threat of Peace webcomic that served as a prelude for the video game Star Wars: The Old Republic. However, as the comic was released in 2009, two years before the game itself in 2011, the Oppressor looks significantly different than the finalized design for the Harrower-class dreadnought.
