Shadow Trooper Mighty Muggs - Star Wars Limited Edition

Shadowtroopers were stormtrooper-Dark Jedi hybrid soldiers created by the Dark Jedi Desann and Imperial Admiral Galak Fyyar on behalf of Lord Hethrir's Empire Reborn. Similar to the Reborn soldiers, Desann used the Valley of the Jedi to imbue stormtroopers with Force powers.

Shadowtroopers were armed with lightsabers powered by synthetic Sith crystals and wore fitted Shadow armor made with cortosis. An Artusian crystal was embedded in the armor's chest plate to enhance the power granted from the valley.

Shadow armor also had limited optical stealth capabilities, similar to an Imperial Saboteur, although a translucent bluish silhouette was visible when the trooper moved. Their artificial empowering of the Force enabled them to use the basics of Force Grip and Force lightning, but not to a very high standard, and saber combat was their preferred choice. Unlike the Reborn warriors, shadowtroopers would not taunt their enemies, rather they would remain quiet and concentrate on physical combat. The shadowtroopers were competent duelists, having more skill than their Reborn counterparts and able to put up an even better fight against a Jedi.

The project behind the shadowtroopers was based at the abandoned Imperial listening outpost on Kejim and Fyyar's flagship, Doomgiver. Desann had experimented with imbuing Empire Youths, who had little potential in the Force, with dark side powers.

Shadowtroopers met their masters' expectations to the extent that some stormtroopers resented them, fearing they would soon be replaced. Shadowtroopers were first deployed in the Cairn Installation against Kyle Katarn. Several others were stationed on Doomgiver to protect the ship.

The majority of shadowtroopers were dispatched to Yavin 4 with Desann for the assault on Luke Skywalker's Jedi Praxeum. With the aid of Kyle Katarn, all of the shadowtroopers dispatched were either killed or taken into custody, and Desann was slain in the battle.

After the death of Fyyar and the destruction of Doomgiver, the project was halted indefinitely.
