The Invader-class JumpShip Invidious under the command of Captain Sean Marcq Clerkin[1] served with the Gray Death Legion since between 3055 and September 3056[2] until its destruction in the Hesperus system in 3065. It should not be confused with Renfred Tor's original Merchant-class vessel of the same name that famously worked with Grayson Carlyle since 3024 and throughout the Verthandi campaign.

Free trader Renfred Tor had passed away by April 3056, leaving his daughter Katrina to inherit the family business and the old Merchant-class Invidious.[3] Katrina Tor briefly continued to serve the Legion until at least April 3056,[4] but "a year or two" before December 3058 the Invidious parted ways with the Gray Death Legion.[5] Between 3055 and April 3056 the Legion obtained a new, bigger Invidious which brought Major Hassan Ali Khaled's battalion from their posting at Borghese back to Glengarry to relieve the besieged Legion on 26 September 3056.[6] It is possible that Katrina Tor parted ways with the Legion at Borghese, and that the other Invidious was hired there as a replacement.

It was this Invader-class ship that was destroyed in the Hesperus system in 3065, and not the original Merchant-class vessel.[7]
