During the era of the Galactic Civil War, a Torpedo Sphere was in the process of being modernized and improved at the Tallaani Shipyards. This Sphere, helmed by Captain Edric Darius, was having its armaments and main hyperdrive systems disabled, with its typical crew absent, substituted by a force of 14,000 technicians and security personnel. While situated at Tallaan, the Torpedo Sphere attracted the unwanted attention of both the Justice Action Network and the Pelagia Freedom Force.
