Legend

this was the name of the small transport ship used by Jedi Master Ikrit, during the early decades of the New Republic. Ikrit found the ship in the hangar at Bast Castle, on the planet Vjun, during a mission to recover the lightsaber of Obi-Wan Kenobi. Anakin Solo, the grandson of the castle's builder, Darth Vader, decided that Ikrit could have the ship for his own use. Ikrit named the ship for Nomi Sunrider, an ancient Jedi Knight who gave up the use of her lightsaber in much the same way that Ikrit had done. The ship was later stolen by Uldir Lochett, when he tried to apprentice himself to the Mage Orloc as a youth. Uldir flew the Sunrider to Exis Station to meet Orloc, and parked the ship in an abandoned docking bay. Unfortunately for Uldir and Master Ikrit, the Ranats which had infested the station dismantled the ship for parts.
