Legend

these distinctive military automatons were built for Xim the Despot, and used by him to wage war on his enemies during the years before the formation of the Old Republic. They were superbly constructed, with reinforced stress points, heavy-gauge armor, and assorted chemical and energy weapons built into their bodies. Each war-robot stood well over two meters in height. The chest-plate of each war-robot was emblazoned with the insignia of Xim, a death's-head skull with sunbursts in the eye sockets. Over a thousand of them were assigned to the Queen of Ranroon alone, to guard Xim's treasure during its transport to Dellalt. Given the rumors of the loss of the Queen of Ranroon and Xim's defeat in the Third Battle of Vontor, all of Xim's war robots were thought to have been destroyed well before the Old Republic was chartered. When Lanni Troujow discovered the log-recorder from the Queen of Ranroon, a renewed search for the ship began on Dellalt. Hasti Troujow, Alexsandr Badure, Han Solo, Chewbacca, and Skynx set out to locate the ship, and it was Skynx who discovered the remains of a war-robot and showed them to Han Solo. The group later discovered the thousand war-robots guarding the Queen of Ranroon, when they infiltrated the Survivors and entered the ship's remains. The war-robots were eventually destroyed when Blue Max and Bollux trapped them on a bridge and collapsed the bridge.
