The ship called the Argent began its service in the Imperial Navy as the pursuit ship Lightstorm.  The Lightstorm and its crew had a solid, if not noteworthy tour of duty.  Until, that is, while pursuing a Corellian Corvette suspected to be in the service of the Rebel Alliance, the Lightstorm fell right into the trap laid by the Alliance's Commander-in-Chief of Intelligence, General Airen Cracken.  Cracken's forces managed to overpower and board the Lightstorm, taking her crew prisoner, all while dealing little actual damage to the ship itself.

The ship underwent an extensive refit, allowing it to be run at peak efficiency with an absolute skeleton crew.  Rechritened the Argent, the ship's refit was completed, and it entered service for the Rebel Alliance as the mobile command base for Wraith Task Force.

The benefits of utilizing a captured Imperial ship were numerous.  By utilizing various falsified ID and transponder codes, the Argent could travel undisturbed through Imperial space.  The versatility provided by such a mobile base of operations allowed Wraith to generally stay at least one step ahead of the Empire, although the necessity of a fixed ground base did arise, leading to the fortification of an outpost on the planet Tamaran.

In becoming the Argent, the Lightstorm's TIE bay was completely rebuilt to accommodate a full squadron of X-wings or Y-wings that comprised Wraith Squadron.  The main docking bay was designated as permanent landing for Deak Jharlan's Sundagger, Trevor Vanth's Iron Angel and Mak Bokra's Decapitator (later the Guillotine).  The secondary bay was designated as docking for Wraith's three captured Lambda-class shuttles.  Storage space adjacent to the former TIE bay was converted into one-man quarters for the members of Wraith Squadron and the deck crew, allowing for quick scrambles as necessary.

While a portion of the ship's brig was kept intact, the interrogation facilities were reconstructed into a near state-of-the-art slicing suite for Kreiger's use.

When the Empire discovered the location of Tamaran base, the Argent fought a delaying tactic against the capital ships in orbit, before being destroyed by two blasts from an approaching Starbreaker battle platform.
