Renown

The Renown was a Venator-class star destroyer that served in the Republic Navy during the Clone Wars until sometime during 20 BBY when it was taken control of by the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

History
The Separatists hijacked the Renown as part of a plan to bomb the Republic Strategy Conference. They took the ship to Abafar and loaded it with numerous canisters of a fuel that was found on the planet, rhydonium. Once it was loaded, the Separatists set course for the Carida System, in which was the space station Valor, the host of the conference. However, a squad of Republic droids, led by Colonel Meebur Gascon, ended up aboard the cruiser while on a mission to retrieve an Encryption Module from the Separatists. With aid from the surviving droid crew members on the ship, LEP Servant Droid BNI-393 among them, they were able to detonate the explosives early, thus preventing the destruction of the station.
