EV-9D9/Legends

"You're a feisty little one, but you'll soon learn some respect. I have need for you on the master's sail barge, and I think you'll fill in nicely."

- EV-9D9 to R2-D2

EV-9D9 was a sadistic droid who supervised the droids in Jabba the Hutt's palace.

Biography
EV-9D9 was built with a third eye just next to her left eye. She had a pain simulator and an abnormal sadomasochistic personality, taking great pleasure in the pain of droids (similar to sentient beings who acted as serial killers).

EV-9D9 was the head of security under Lando Calrissian in Cloud City on Bespin, using that position to torture and destroy a quarter of the droids in Cloud City, including most of the 12 (Wuntoo) Traffic Controller droids. However, she was exposed by her subordinate Sarl Random and forced to flee. She partially damaged the generators that held the city afloat as a distraction as she stole the Iopene Princess, a large Mining Guild ship. Despite the fact that security gave chase, she escaped.



She came to work for Jabba, and rose to the rank of droid supervisor quickly and ruthlessly, and oversaw Jabba's droid pool. She kept a secret workshop deep in the bowels of Jabba's Palace, where she built grotesque droids from extra parts that existed only to feel pain. She assigned jobs to C-3PO and R2-D2 when they arrived at the Palace in 4 ABY. However, she soon discovered that Lando Calrissian had infiltrated the palace and ensured that there would be good jobs for the droids by removing competitors. She reasoned that he had tracked her down and was using the droids to get revenge (which was untrue, Lando's presence was a coincidence).

Around the time of Jabba's death, she was tracked down by 12-4C-41 (Wuntoo Forcee Forwun), a Traffic Control droid from Cloud City. Forwun removed EV-9D9's limbs and let loose her grotesque droid creations to destroy her, but not before removing her third eye and pain simulator so she couldn't even enjoy the pain of her own destruction.
