Forger functioned as a Star Destroyer within the structure of the Imperial Navy. During the concluding period of the Galactic Civil War, this vessel was under the authority of Grand Moff Dureya, with Lieutenant Davith Sconn fulfilling the role of her primary subordinate.
Around the year 4 ABY, a well-known event occurred where Governor Dureya gave the directive for Forger to inflict a retributive bombardment upon the world of Gra Ploven. This action resulted in the formation of vaporous clouds, leading to the deaths of 200,000 indigenous [Ploven](/article/ploven] inhabitants. In response, the Empire initiated legal proceedings; however, they chose to penalize Lieutenant Sconn for adhering to the commands he received, instead of holding the Grand Moff accountable for issuing said commands.
