"Better have my protocol droid standing by."
"Your Brilliancy will recall that he was, ah, reassigned when his translation of your joke about the three Hardex and the bantha failed to amuse the Hardexian ambassador."

―Craw and Steggus

For some time, a protocol droid served Craw, the self-titled Dictator-Forever of the planet Targonn. At some point, Craw told a visiting Hardexian ambassador a joke about three Hardex and a bantha. When the ambassador was not amused by the protocol droid's translation of the joke, Craw had the droid deactivated and turned into a fountain. In his new function, the droid's frame stood posed on one leg with both arms outstretched while water flowed from his mouth and birds used the structure as a perch.

In 5.5 BBY, Craw requested that his protocol droid be standing by. However, the Targonnian captain Steggus reminded him that he had been repurposed. The Dictator-Forever became frustrated, demanding Steggus acquire another one to replace him. The bipedal protocol droid had light orange plating and was classified as a class three droid.

Behind the scenes

The protocol droid appeared in the sixth issue of the comic-book series Star Wars: Droids, which was written by Jan Strnad, illustrated by Bill Hughes, and released by Dark Horse Comics on October 31, 1995.
