Lucid Voice

The Lucid Voice was a Providence-class Dreadnought that served within the naval forces of the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars. Throughout the war, the dreadnought saw action in several contested star systems, such as the systems of Quell and Ryloth, and participated in a space battle alongside several Munificent-class star frigates against at least three Venator-class Star Destroyers of the Galactic Republic.
In 18 BBY, following the war's end and subsequent formation of the Galactic Empire as the successor to the Republic, the Lucid Voice was dismantled at the Bilbringi shipyards. Although dismantled, components that belonged to the dreadnought's sensor array tower were acquired by Imperial defector Berch Teller, who used them to create a downsized version of a Providence-class Dreadnought, which was later destroyed by Imperial forces near the Gulf of the planet Tatooine.

A year after the war's end, Lucid Voice was dismantled at the the Bilbringi shipyards, though components of the ship's sensor array tower were acquired by a group of rebels led by former Republic Intelligence officer Berch Teller.
