Hutt Guard Droid

The Hutt Guard Droid, also known as the Snake Droid, was an ancient model of security droid used by the Hutts. They resembled thinner versions of Hutts, with segmented serpentine bodies, two arms and narrow heads. By the time of the Iron Blockade, a large number of such security droids still roamed the long-abandoned Hutt cities of the planet Mataou.^[1] One such droid was RZ-4, who was built by Shizu the Hutt.^[2]
