- "I'll kill you!"
- ―The droid, to the Sith Bandit Leader
An RA-7 protocol droid served as a guard of a village, as part of a group of guards commanded by a Trandoshan. When the village was attacked by a group of bandits led by a Sith, the guards attempted to defend the villagers. The protocol droid fired upon the Sith with a blaster cannon, and the bandit leader used her lightsaber parasol to deflect the fire, revealing her Sith allegiance. After the Sith killed the Trandoshan commander, the droid retaliated, firing upon the bandit. However, the Sith charged at the guard, slicing its weapon in two, before destroying the droid. After a wandering former Sith known as Ronin stepped in to duel the Sith, he threw the droid's body at the bandit to distract her.[1]
