Built after the fall of the Empire, the Vesper is a shining example of the New Republic fleet, a sleek and sophisticated vessel built for diplomacy and exploration, not war. With a crew led by Captain Hayle, a veteran of the Galactic Civil War who fought on the side of the Rebel Alliance, the Vesper was tasked with transporting political prisoner Morgan Elsbeth for trial before it came under attack by two mercenaries, posing as Jedi and looking to free the captive.

A former member of the Rebel Alliance, Captain Hayle commands the Vesper in the peaceful era of the New Republic. A bold leader who does not shrink from conflict, Hayle faces any threat to his ship and his crew head-on with his top security officers.

Although it is a time of peace, the E-wing is a new advanced combat vessel introduced as part of the New Republic fleet in the years after the Empire’s fall.

The Rebel Alliance became the New Republic after its victory over the Empire at the Battle of Endor. Eager to win over the war-weary citizens of the galaxy, the New Republic revived the Senate, signed a peace treaty – the Galactic Concordance – with the Empire’s remnants, and drastically reduced its military capabilities. That policy aroused the ire of rebel hero Leia Organa, who warned that elements of the Empire were still seeking power. Sidelined from the political process, Organa founded the Resistance to oppose the Empire’s successor state, the mysterious First Order.

The venerable Incom T-65 design continues to serve proudly in the fleets of the new Republic, as the preeminent space superiority craft of the Rebel Alliance now becomes the signature ship of security patrols.

Once the heart of the Ghost crew during the age of the Empire, Hera Syndulla continues to serve as the captain of her ship while fighting for freedom from oppression as a general in the New Republic during an era of reconstruction. A gifted pilot with a knack for dogfighting with TIE fighters and a steadfast leader who was instrumental in leading the successful Lothal rebellion, Syndulla is now a mother, veteran, and general.
