- "In this case it was pirates. They broke into an old company warehouse and stole a prototype Tagge battle droid. Something went awry on Nar Shaddaa. The pirates and their prospective buyer were all killed, apparently by this droid."
- ―Domina Tagge, to Doctor Chelli Lona Aphra
A Rodian individual lived during the reign of the Galactic Empire.[2] Between 3 ABY and 4 ABY,[1] he met pirates on[2] the Smuggler's Moon[3] Nar Shaddaa to purchase a prototype battle droid that the pirates stole from a Tagge Corporation warehouse on[2] the planet[4] Milvayne. Before the sale could take place, however, the battle droid, despite not being equipped with a power source, killed the prospective buyer, as well all of the pirates. Afterward, Lady Domina Tagge, the leader of Tagge Corporation, learned about the attempted theft and sale and had the droid brought to her flagship, the Acquisitor.[2]
Behind the scenes
The buyer appeared in the thirty-fifth issue of the 2020 comic series Star Wars: Doctor Aphra. The issue was written by Alyssa Wong and published by Marvel Comics[2] on August 23 2023.[5]
