[hider=IG-68] [b]Name:[/b] IG-68 [b]Species:[/b] Advanced Assassin/Tactical Prototype Droid [b]Age:[/b] Unknown due to the many different parts that make him up. [b]Appearance:[/b] Having trouble getting the image to load. He looks like a white and silver IG model droid. [b]Equipment:[/b] One E-5 Blaster rifle Two SE-14r light repeating blaster Four Thermal Detonators [b]Skills:[/b] Expert shot with both blaster rifles and blaster pistols and large majority of other weapons. Due to his custom design, he is a bit faster and slightly more mobile than a typical tactical droid. Advanced sentience programming has allowed him to defy his original orders. Despite his original purpose as a tactical droid, he feels due to the nature of his programming he has evolved past what he was designed to do. [b]Weaknesses:[/b] Extremely vulnerable to ion grenades, ion blasters and due to his customized design he has far less armor than a typical tactical droid. One well placed blaster or lucky sniper shot can disable him or even destroy him. [b]History:[/b] The creation of IG-68 was brought about near the end of the Clone Wars, shortly before the Rise of the Empire. While the droid armies of the Confederacy waged war against the Clone Army of the Republic, a high ranking member of the Separatist Council attempted to have a droid created that combined the lethal efficiency of an assassin droid with the innovative thinking of a tactical command droid. While the idea looked like it would work well on the drawing board, the Confederacy was suffering from a shortage of the necessary parts needed for the project. As a result, the finished droid was made from some components that were brand new such as the targeting systems and the light armor while other systems such as the optical sensors and other redundant systems were somewhat older and therefor less effective. Advanced sentience programming was used in his creation to help him better assist the Separatist forces in the war. Unfortunately, when the droid was first brought online no one could predict how the droid would react. When the primary objectives were loaded into his CPU, the droid simply turned to look at his creator and spoke three words that caught everyone in the lab completely off guard: "Primary Objective Refused." IG-68 than entered standby mode and waited to see what would be done. He recorded the interactions between his creator and the scientists constantly as his sentience programming continued to grow by leaps and bounds. As the hours went by, the scientists attempted to modify him to no avail. The droid refused to injure any of the scientists, although he did threaten to defend himself if a memory wipe was attempted. It was day two when the scientists attempted to reset his programming but that was interrupted by an explosion outside the lab. Republic forces, now known as "Imperial Storm troopers" had gotten wind of the project and were attempting to storm the lab to shut it down before it could be deployed. In the chaos that followed, IG-68 was able to escape the lab with zero fatalities although he was forced to break a few arms and render a number of the troops unconscious when the troops attempted to capture him. Though an order was issued that the droid was to be captured or destroyed on sight, IG-68 was able to steal a small Separatist shuttle and flee. It took the droid a number of months but he found himself on the remote world of Tregallon. The droid couldn't help but see the cruelty of the imperial personal while hiding and attempting to upgrade himself with stolen parts. The imperials were cruel, interfering in the lives of the civilians and in some cases beating and killing them with very little reason. Some of them seemed to enjoy the killing. As the droid continued to observe and steal parts, he was able to upgrade some minor systems that allowed him to interface with the imperial data network. What he learned nearly sent his constantly evolving sentience programming into a fatal overload. This was but one planet the empire occupied, what he was witnessing was insignificant in the galaxy. On other worlds, far worse atrocities were being committed nearly every day. The droid spent days processing what he had learned. IG-68's programming was constantly shifting and was in danger of entering a fatal feedback loop as he tried to make sense of what he had accessed. [i]Warning: Fatal feedback loop detected.
