  • During the renewed war between the Sith Empire and the Galactic Republic, a three-way battle occurred above the mineral-rich planet Leritor in 3640 BBY. After losing control of Leritor in a previous engagement, the Sith Lord Darth Gravus led a fleet to the planet and engaged the Republic Navy there, leading the battle from the helm of his Harrower-class dreadnought Exemplar. However, the prototype battlecruiser Ascendant Spear arrived in the system under the command of Darth Karrid, Gravus' rival in the competition for a seat on the Empire's ruling Dark Council, and the elder Human ordered his fleet to attack the Falleen in order to eliminate the threat she posed. Gravus' decision allowed the Republic fleet to tear apart his own, and the Ascendant Spear wiped out both fleets after the Exem

  • During the renewed war between the Sith Empire and the Galactic Republic, a three-way battle occurred above the mineral-rich planet Leritor in 3640 BBY. After losing control of Leritor in a previous engagement, the Sith Lord Darth Gravus led a fleet to the planet and engaged the Republic Navy there, leading the battle from the helm of his Harrower-class dreadnought Exemplar. However, the prototype battlecruiser Ascendant Spear arrived in the system under the command of Darth Karrid, Gravus' rival in the competition for a seat on the Empire's ruling Dark Council, and the elder Human ordered his fleet to attack the Falleen in order to eliminate the threat she posed. Gravus' decision allowed the Republic fleet to tear apart his own, and the Ascendant Spear wiped out both fleets after the Exemplar struck the first blow. With the death of Gravus at the end of the battle, Karrid ascended to the head of the Sphere of Technology and became a Dark Councilor.
