Direption, an Imperial II-class Star Destroyer, operated as part of Warlord Admiral Krennel's naval forces around 9 ABY, before its eventual capitulation to the New Republic.
Initially, it was under the leadership of a Captain named Rensen. However, Rensen's refusal to destroy a village where an assassin who targeted Krennel resided led to his execution, and Commander Vict Darron assumed command. Lieutenant Harsis served as the ship's sensor officer.
During the Battle of Liinade III, Direption faced a numerical disadvantage, being engaged by three New Republic vessels. These included Freedom and Moonshadow, both Imperial II-class Star Destroyers, along with Swift Liberty, a Victory II-class Star Destroyer. As the battle unfolded, Darron, having lost his TIE/LN starfighters and other assisting units, chose to surrender Direption to preserve the ship. The significantly damaged Star Destroyer then fell into the hands of the New Republic.
