Legend

this manufacturer of security droids and other systems was a noted competitor of Cestus Cybernetics during the Old Republic. When the X'Ting inquired about a security system for the protection of several royal egss - to be hidden after the X'Ting believed that Cestus Cybernetics was behind the Great Plague - Toong'L Security Systems gladly took on the project. Their system was in intricate combination of guardian worms and scent-based receptors that challenged a being with several layers of verification of their intent. The mutated worms that were brought to Ord Cestus were vicious and carnivorous, but could be defeated by cunning warriors. Because of the scent-based traps that followed, only an X'Ting could manage to reach the deepest levels. Once inside the main chamber, am X'Ting was forced to answer three questions. Whether or not the X'Ting answered correctly, the system declared that the answers were wrong, and forced the X'Ting face their own execution. In this way, the system could determine - from the individual's scents - whether or not they had penetrated the system for their own prestige, or for the better good of the X'Ting people. While the system proved to be exceptionally secure, the worms that were used to guard the forward sections attacked the X'Ting population that chose to live underground after the Great Plague. They stumbled into the worms' chamber and were set upon, and their were no survivors. To make matters worse, Toong'L Security Systems was destroyed when the planet was hit by a comet, eliminating all knowledge of the ways to bypass the security systems. Eventually, it was Jesson Di Blinth who penetrated the system, along with help from Obi-Wan Kenobi, and recovered the eggs.
