The title of this article is conjectural.

Although this article is based on official information from the Star Wars Legends continuity, the actual name of this subject is pure conjecture.

"These turrets are the future of Imperial anti-personnel weaponry. And Lord Grathan wanted to keep them all to himself!"
―Bryn[1]

An anti-personnel prototype turret model was acquired by Lord Grathan.

Description

The turret was a large unmanned anti-personnel emplacement capable of projecting flames.[1]

History

During the Cold War, Imperial Captain Bryn requested the aid of a passing spacer to retrieve the plans from Lord Grathan's estate on Dromund Kaas.[1]

This section of the article assumes 100% game completion and that the player chooses only "dark side" options when available during the course of the game. Alternate stories are noted in the "Behind the scenes" section. Note: The events in this section may or may not have been confirmed as canon within the Star Wars Legends continuity.

The Imperial spacer successfully infiltrated Grathan's compound, retrieving a security badge from a member of Lord Grathan's forces in order to pass by its automated defences. The spacer stole into Grathan's weapons lab and downloaded the plans from the databanks of PO-12, much to the droid's chagrin, who wanted to destroy the schematics and ensure no more could be built. Upon the spacer's return, Bryn displayed an eagerness to test the efficacy of the turrets on Republic personnel.[1]

Assumption ends here.

Behind the scenes

The prototype turrets appear in the "Strange Weapons" exploration mission on Dromund Kaas, in the BioWare/LucasArts online roleplaying game, Star Wars: The Old Republic,[1] released in 2011.[2]

Players have two options during the quest: they can download the turret plans for dark alignment points or remove PO-12's restraining bolt to allow the droid to delete the plans for light alignment points.[1]
