TIE Defender Squadron - Midnight
Midnight Squadron started out life as a TIE Interceptor squadron and quite possibly would have remained that way if not for Kasr. It was due to Kasr�s info that the Dark Star was able to intercept a convoy of TIE Defenders bound for the Invisible Market. The Defenders were given to Midnight to use, invariably making them a more multipurpose squadron. Now it is standard practice for Daktren to send out Midnight Squadron for everything from deep space scouting missions to capture operations.

Even before Midnight received their Defenders, they prided themselves on being the first squadron into battle and the last to leave. Daktren also made it a point to make Midnight�s primary objective to teach and guide the other squadrons of the Dark Star. This has helped to reduce squadron rivalries on the ship, ensuring that they don�t get out of control.

Without a doubt, Midnight is the top squadron of the Dark Star, and just like all top squadrons they are usually assigned the most dangerous missions. Because of that, it has, on average, more casualties than any other squadron on the Dark Star. These casualties are still very low, but noticeable. Due to either bad luck, or simple coincidence, many times the casualty is the squadron leader. Many pilots now feel that that position in Midnight is cursed.

Recently, the newest pilot to assume command of Midnight is Fen Palka, a veteran pilot who has flown many different variations of TIE craft. Palka is determined to erase Midnight�s so-called �curse� for good.
