The StarViper, technically the "StarViper-class Attack Platform", is another Mandalorian-made ship. The head of the Black Sun crime syndicate, Prince Xizor, paid for them to design a new class of ship incorporating many new technologies like a complex system of microthrusters on wingtips, folding S-coil wings which continually moved while flying like an alien bird or insect of some kind, multiple independent energy systems, and a super complicated targeting system so absolutely anything installed on the ship could be used quickly and effectively beyond what would ever be possible (for a non-Force user anyway) otherwise. Unlike most ships which spread out horizontally, the Virago was tall and thus was an entirely different thing than what most pilots were capable of dogfighting. It hybridized the role of weapons platform with a heavy fighter and also agility that outmatched A-Wings or TIE Interceptors. Once it was completed Xizor then purchased the rights to distribution of the craft so no other would ever be made other than his own, the prototype which he dubbed "Virago", although later several much cheaper variants were made for those in the Black Sun as rewards for service. If you're wondering why the Star Wars version of the mafia would want a unique ship that nobody else can use, the answer is "because their boss is [[batman|an egomaniac with money to burn]]". When Xizor and the Virago were blown up by the Executor, the Mandalorians took advantage of their agreement being void and promptly began making as many as possible. They sold to absolutely anyone who wanted one, although their primary buyer was the Zann Consortium, 1/3 of the galactic mob organizations which controlled the galactic underworld (with the Black Suns and the Hutts being their rivals). The Mandalorians also constructed an entire fleet of StarVipers just for themselves to use against their Imperial oppressors towards the end of the Galactic Civil War. 

Coming back around to unique Scum-only ships, the StarViper is a ship from the Shadows of the Empire series of toys, comics, an N64 game, and novels that dominated Star Wars media in the 1990's. Comes with a solid statline of 3 attack, 3 defense, but only has 1 Shield to its 4 Hull making you more vulnerable to Crits than most fighters of similar cost, though it has an excellent set of maneuvers and built-in Boost and Barrel Roll on top of Focus and Target Lock. Starviper was the first ship to have Segnor's Loop. Combo with Advanced Sensors to Boost or Barrel Roll first, and you can wind up in some good flanking positions. If that wasn't enough, the Starviper uses the ''bank'' template when barrel rolling, and you can decide on-the-fly which way it curves.
*The ''Virago'' title gives an additional Mod slot, another shield, and two surges that can be spent on a red boost during the End Phase.

===Pilots===
*'''Black Sun Enforcer:''' A Black Sun grunt, in a StarViper painted in white with black Black Sun designs and green highlights.
*'''Black Sun Assassin:''' An interstellar hitman for Black Sun, this guy is actually good at killing people and it shows. A typical "elite" generic.
*'''Guri:''' Essentially a Replicant from Blade Runner, a tech first attempted by the Rebel Alliance which was then successfully done by two Imperial researchers who sold their results to Xizor who had Guri constructed as his perfect human [[waifu]]. Guri ran the Black Suns on behalf of Xizor (to the point she was believed to be the Princess of the Black Sun) so he didn't have to risk assassination, combined with her programming as an assassin to eliminate his rivals in Villainy, in business, and even nosy Imperials. Sought out her creators after Xizor kicked it and later became a mercenary for the New Republic, teaming up with Dash Rendar and Kyle Katarn (making a nice happy Expanded Universe family for a short time). Eventually she allowed the Republic to copy her and create a small force of Guris to act as the agents of the Republic against the Imperial Remnant and the criminal underworld. Her StarViper is unpainted. She gets a free Focus Token if there's at least 1 enemy ship at Range 0-1 at the start of the Engagement Phase, which can let you trigger a lot of fun combos or weapons without having to worry about saving the focus for defense. Fearless and Static Discharge Vanes capitalize on her [[Choppy|choppiness]], and Virago can help her close the distance while keeping her shielded from the ensuing point-blank shots. She is one of the only pilots that can get Calculate and Focus without upgrades or outside help.
*'''Dalan Oberos''': A human bounty hunter from ''Chronicles of the Gatekeeper''. His ability is, you can turn 90° after fully executing a maneuver for a stress, making him very squirrely. Afterburners have the same timing window as his ability, so he could maneuver, turn, boost; or maneuver, boost, turn. [[Creed|If you use Advanced Sensors to get a barrel roll in before you do all of that, you may as well get Outmaneuver, because there's no way that isn't kicking in every single round]].
*'''Prince Xizor:''' A Falleen (chameleon people with pheromone powers) who was head of the Black Sun mob which controlled 1/3 of all criminal activities in the galaxy. His ability basically turns all of your ships into his bodyguards, giving you the option of putting an uncancelled Hit or Crit result onto friendly ships at Range 0-1 when he defends. Especially handy if your Shields go down and you eat a Crit, but that cheapass Z-95 nearby still has Shields although Y-Wings make the perfect escort to take the hits since they are cheap and somewhat durable.
