The cyborg mech[1] was the name given to a cyborg[3] scavenger[5] operated on the deserted planet of Mandalore[3] in 9 ABY.[2] It piloted a Spider Tank as a vehicle to traverse the ruined landscape of Mandalore, fend off other beings and capture them for their blood.[3] At one point, the being succeeded in ambushing and capturing the Mandalorian Din Djarin in a cage in an attempt to harvest his blood. Djarin's companion Grogu managed to evade its attack and went to Bo-Katan Kryze for help, after unsuccessfully attempting to free Djarin. The cyborg was killed by Kryze when she arrived on the planet to rescue him.[3]
Some time later, Djarin recalled his defeat by the cyborg and its own subsequent defeat by Kryze's hand to Clan Kryze, using Bo-Katan's victory as justification to return the Darksaber to her ownership under its rule of claim by combat.[6]

- ↑ 1.0 1.1 Star Wars Encyclopedia: The Comprehensive Guide to the Star Wars Galaxy
- ↑ 2.0 2.1 Star Wars: Timelines dates the events of "Chapter 1: The Mandalorian" of The Mandalorian Season One to 9 ABY. In addition,
"A Certain Point of View" — Star Wars Insider 228 also dates "Part Seven: Dreams and Madness" to nine years after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, which corresponds to 9 ABY per Timelines. "Part Seven: Dreams and Madness" takes place after the conflict on Mandalore, which is the main event depicted in "Chapter 23: The Spies" and "Chapter 24: The Return," the final two episodes of The Mandalorian Season Three. Therefore, Seasons One through Three of The Mandalorian, the latter of which includes "Chapter 18: The Mines of Mandalore," must all be set in 9 ABY as well.
