The Peril is a Victory II-class Star Destroyer that has seen chronologically extensive yet appearance-light service in the Rebel Squadrons.

The Peril has seen RS service primarily as the flagship of Redemption Fleet. It served as the flagship of Redemption from 1998 to 2005. During this time it appeared on the Redemption Fleet webpage and it also appeared in at least one ITOD mission, Retribution Fleet's R2F800. In this appearance, the vessel was under the command of Fleet Admiral Dave Trebonious-Astoris. It arrived at the rendezvous point for Redemption Fleet and Retribution Wing forces far in the Outer Rim before heading out into the Unknown Regions to investigate reports of missing warships. It came under attack by Imperial forces led by the Modified Frigate Pronota. It supported the Star Destroyer Prometheus in holding Imperial forces at bay until Sentinel task force, led by the Star Destroyer Liberator, arrived to help repulse the Imperials.

In 2005, the Redemption Fleet command staff decided that a VSD-II was too small for a flagship, and retired the Peril in favor of an Imperial-class Star Destroyer, the Redemption. This was widely held as an act of breathtaking unoriginality.

In November 2006, the Peril returned to the scene as the personal vessel of Fleet Commander Dave Trebonious-Astoris.

Fictional Background

The first appearance of the Peril is in the biography of Dave Trebonious-Astoris. The ship was until 2 ABY in the service of the Empire, attached to the fleet of Grand Admiral Thrawn.

At that time, Dave had been captain of the Peril for six years. When he defected to the Alliance, he brought the ship with him. For years it was bounced around in various fleets of the fledgling New Republic. When Dave took command of Redemption Fleet (historically, 1998), he requisitioned, received, and retrofitted the Peril for service as his flagship. It served in numerous battles under Dave and his successors before being retired during the command of Leonard Cable (historically, 2005). At this time the Peril was transferred again, so that its original owner, Dave, could claim command of it. He at present commands the ship as his own personal vessel. While FC, Dave commands the entire fleet in right of his office, but he commands the Peril as his personal ship, and it is always at his beck and call. It most recently appeared in the first FC's Narrative.

Modifications

In order to ensure its competitiveness in the evolving world of post-Endor space combat, the Peril has received some modifications. The most important was the installation of a secondary shield generator in the vessel's fighter bay. The new generator provides an entirely separate shield grid beneath the main grid for extra protection, although the secondary generator is only about half as powerful as the main. The consequence of this installation is that the Peril carries a smaller fighter and shuttle complement than most Victory II's.
