Though the HK-24 and HK-50 model assassin droids are unsuitable for heroes, players might want to play as a droid such as HK-47; that is, a droid from the HK series but independent and with a developed (or developing) personality. Gamemasters that wish to allow HK-Series assassin droids can use the following statistics as the baseline for the droid hero. Gamemasters should encourage their heroes to come up with a history and unique designation for their HK Series droid. Which model is the unique droid hero based on? Why has the droid developed a personality? What motivates the droid to overcome its assassination protocols, or does the droid even try? By answering questions such as these, a heroic HK Series droid can be an interesting and valuable addition to the group.
