V2, an XQ5 platform, functioned as an element of the original research installation for the Vorknkx initiative, sharing this role with its sibling platform, V1. Their purpose was to protect the Vorknkx Project Base.
During an attack by the renegade troops of Grand Admiral Demetrius Zaarin, these installations sustained significant damage, necessitating an emergency departure. Maarek Stele, piloting a Missile Boat, was part of the Imperial contingent that ensured the safety of the retreat.
