The Emperor's Sword, also known as the Sword of Straxus, was a sword wielded by the emperors of Xaron and one of the holiest relics of the Xaronese religion. The sword was created in 12 BXE from meteoric metal ore by the Lady of Lake Jessad on the behest of Straxus the Terrible, then the King of Udrek. Straxus the Terrible believed the meteor was sent by the sun god Xaryas as a symbol of divine favor and a mandate to spread his dominion throughout the known world. With the Emperor's Sword by his side, Straxus the Terrible founded the Holy Xaronese Empire and eventually passed it on to his son Draxus the Preserver after his death in 33 XE. The Emperor's Sword traditionally resided in the Shrine of the Sword in the Imperial Palace.

  • The Emperor's Sword was a fighter wing in the Imperial Military during the Galactic Civil War. Made up of elite pilots sworn to defend Emperor Palpatine, the Emperor's Sword was stationed at Coruscant but always traveled with the Emperor and were therefore present at the Death Star II shortly before the Battle of Endor. As such, they also participated in the squadron parade signifying the Emperor's arrival, alongside its sister squadron Emperor's Shield and Scythe Squadron. Due to the pilots' years of experience, they tended to fly older TIE Series starfighters such as the TIE/LN starfighter. Maarek Stele was put in command of the Emperor's Sword after his role in saving Palpatine from a coup by rogue Grand Admiral Demetrius Zaarin.
  • The Emperor's Sword was an epithet given to Stern Stark by Constantine Elyurius' father for killing Jal Shey rebel leader Atlas La Rouge. The epithet mirrors the epithet given to Bellatrix La Rouge, The Emperor's Hound.
