Andy Moore Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 This is B0-R15, a rather old and broken down protocol droid who inhabits the lower levels of Coruscant. He claims (to anyone who'll listen to his ramblings) that he used to work for an influential senator before the Empire came to power. He now ekes out a living by providing translation services to various underworld gangs. At one time he was fluent in over six million forms of communication. Unfortunately, due to age and lack of maintenance, he can now only manage seven, and those not very well. This has, rather understandably, hampered his employment opportunities, especially after one unfortunate incident when he mistranslated the phrase 'honoured guest' as 'Gamorrean faced Bantha fodder', during a negotiation between rival crime lords. He still though dreams of one day returning to his former life, serving the great and good of Coruscant society. The build can be found here Thanks for looking Andy 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
