R-8009 Utility Droid

The Serv-0-Droid R-8009 utility droid is the standard labor droid used during the days of the Old Republic. This utility droid can perform a number of functions, including basic maintenance and cleaning. The droid is outfitted with varying equipment, depending on the role it is intended to fulfill. Cheap, relatively skilled, and capable of operating quietly and subtly around living beings, the R-8009 can be found everywhere from the Deep Core to the Outer Rim. Unlike ot her utility droids, the R-8009 has the skills and hardware to enable it to interface with other droids and computers. This allows the owner to program the utility droid to return to a designated computer terminal and receive new instructions on a regular basis, eliminating the need for another droid to constantly update the R-8009’s programming.

The R-8009 is the model that made Serv-0-Droid a household name, raking in untold billions of credits and enabling the company to swallow up many of its competitors, including Delban Electrodyne—its chief competitor. Though Serv-0-Droid never reaches the level of fame that Cybot Galactica or Industria Automaton would, the company establishes itself firmly in the galaxy for thousands of years, though it eventually goes bankrupt with the establishment of the Corporate Sector.

R-8009 utility droids can be played as droid heroes.
