Basilisk War Droid
The ancient Basiliskan race yielded up many technological advances to their Mandalorian conquerors. Chief among them is the Basilisk war droid, heavily armed electronic quadrupeds. Operating both in atmosphere and in space, they are deadly enough on their own, their artificial intelligence operating a variety of weapons systems within their Mandalorian steel shells.
But the Basilisk droids are seldom on their own. Mandalorians use them as their personal mounts, saving wear and tear on their jet packs. The war droid is capable of melee action with its huge claws, as Ulic Qel-Droma finds when the mounted Mandalore the Indomitable meets him for their fateful duel.
