- "So now that we've got a team of true believers…and you're their new hero. So we can send 'em out to soften up the field before we use our real killers. Nice to have some expendable assets, huh?"
"You are all expendable. In the name of order."
"Y-yes, Lord Vader." - ―Ochi and Darth Vader, on the crew
Vader's crew[6] was a crew made up of assassins from the Assassin's Guild and resistance fighters dubbed heroes that were known as the Revengers. The crew served under the Sith Lord Darth Vader as he attempted to wipe out the Crimson Dawn criminal syndicate and its followers in the Galactic Empire to restore order to the galaxy. The Sith assassin Ochi,[1] who was also aligned with Crimson Dawn,[6] and the Imperial officer Beilert Valance were also part of the crew.[1] Vader also resumed his uneasy alliance with the former handmaiden Sabé.[6] The Revengers and Valance later took part in a battle on Bestine IV, where Valance betrayed the Empire. Vader left the Revengers to die when a group of TIE/sa bombers bombed a village insurgents were hiding within.[7]
