Shadow was a Nebulon-B2 frigate in service to Zaarin coup forces, under the command of the renegade Grand Admiral Zaarin. In concert with the Strike Cruiser Serpent and the Immobilizer 418 cruiser Grappler, this frigate participated in a failed attempt to ensnare Admiral Thrawn aboard his _Victory I_-class Star Destroyer, the Sceltor, with the intention of seizing the Mag Pulse Warhead. Ultimately, the mission failed, and the Shadow met its end through destruction.
