The Compensator was the nickname given to a pet project of the mentally unstable Moff Prav Sh'mukk during the height of the Galactic Empire. It amounted to a narrow Star Destroyer over three hundred kilometers in length; however, only the basic frame was fully completed, leaving 99% of the interior to be filled in. Due to the erratic nature of the supplies, the crew eventually went insane from inactivity and boredom, forming their own 'nations' in various parts of the ship. However, Imperial Political Inspection division agent Varris Tralen was able to uncover the project and was able to subdue and arrest Sh'mukk. Following that, the ship was dismantled and the crew taken for rehabilitation.
