Thrumble, Massad
this man owned an upscale cantina on Hurd's Moon. Thrumble was, at one time, an expert in robotics working for the Empire. As a Captain, he oversaw the creation of many series of droids, and retired from Imperial service as the Admiral in command of the Empire's Droid Research Facility. The human replica droid Guri sought him out in the hope that he could remove the programming that made her an assassin. Thurmble succeeded, but also managed to obtain complete technical details on the humna-replica droid, and later completed an HRD of his own before he was killed.
