Jedi training droid

"A boy of his age, altering a training droid in this way, simply to impress his teachers? I would say that is more than unexpected. I would call it&hellip;impressive."

- Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine

A training droid was a type of droid used at the Jedi Temple during the final decades of the Jedi Order. Used for combat training, the droid had two legs, four arms, and was capable of changing its appearance with a holoprojector. Less than three years after the death of Qui-Gon Jinn at the hands of Darth Maul, Padawan Anakin Skywalker programmed the droid to mimic the appearance of the Sith during a training session.
