The Basilisk was an Imperial-class Star Destroyer used by Lord Shadowspawn of the Galactic Empire as his flagship. It saw action against numerous Alliance to Restore the Republic Rebel Navy ships, and survived the Galactic Civil War. Around 12 ABY, it was part of Grand Admiral Thrawn's confederation, as Shadowspawn served him. Following his death, Shadowspawn tried to reestablish the Empire as the dominant government, the Shadow Empire, and the Basilisk was the Imperial Navy's flagship. It was destroyed during the Mindor Campaign in 13 ABY.
