The Mark VII experimental prototype assassin droid, also referred to as the rogue assassin droid, was a droid that had been created to be the prototype for a series of assassin droid, manufactured by the Sith Empire based on the graveyard world of Korriban. Designed specifically to hunt and exterminate Jedi, the droid proved to be more then its designers could handle and escaped their custody in a murderous rampage. Hiding itself within the burial chamber of Marka Ragnos's tomb, the droid built for itself a guard force of lesser battle droids, and attacked any would-be assailants that made too much noise. Eventually, the former Sith Lord Revan found the droid and, using a sound-dampening device, managed to retune and reprogram the droid. Grateful for the his help, the droid quickly fled the planet for parts unknown.
