- "You're on my ship—don't forget that, Reyna."
- ―Ubrik Adelhard, to Reyna Oskure
The Scepter was an Imperial-class Star Destroyer commanded by Grand Moff Ubrik Adelhard of the Galactic Empire. Commander Bragh and Lieutenant Kith Alaytia served as Adelhard's subordinates aboard the Star Destroyer. After the Imperial loss at the Battle of Endor, Adelhard intended to restore the regime and retain his territory in the Anoat sector.[1] Reyna Oskure, a member of the Acolytes of the Beyond, operated aboard the starship[3] as a counselor to Adelhard. When the fledgling New Republic dispatched a team of operatives to investigate the sector, the Imperials captured them and held them prisoner aboard the Star Destroyer, but the team were released by the ISB lieutenant Kith Alaytia. The Jedi Luke Skywalker boarded the vessel to rescue them and confront Adelhard, dueling Oskure, who was posing as an Inquisitor. After Skywalker defeated Oskure, the New Republic operatives took her and Bragh captive, while New Republic reinforcements summoned by Lando Calrissian arrived to attack Adelhard's Star Destroyer. Skywalker confronted Adelhard, though the Grand Moff survived, and the New Republic forces escaped the vessel.[7]
