Background
The Imperial research vessel was a class of massive transport utilized by the Galactic Empire’s cloning program to transport cloned Zillo Beasts from their facilities scattered around the galaxy to the Weyland facility containment zone on Mount Tantiss. They were manned by Imperial commandos led by an Imperial royal guard and carried at least one medical droid for the Beast. To ensure maximum operational security, their destination was undeclared and not logged on the ship’s computer to prevent enemies from finding out about Weyland; the vessels were also unmarked to prevent identification in case they crashed.
