The electroguillotine was a device used in executions by beheading the condemned. An electrostaff could be used to activate an electroguillotine.[2] The guillotine was made of laser energy.[1] Late in the Onderonian Civil War, an electroguillotine was to be used in the execution of Ramsis Dendup. The event was interrupted by the Onderon rebels who nearly rescued the former king. The rebels were cornered by B2-series super battle droids, resulting in Sanjay Rash announcing they were all to be killed on the electroguillotine. However, Akenathen Tandin and the Royal Onderon Militia stopped Rash, enabling them and the rebels to bring Dendup to safety in the Onderon rebel safe house.[2]
