ASTROMECH ASTRO_DROID 'ASTRO DROID'
Astromechs (or astro droids) are droids originally designed to perform starshipmaintenance repair, but they can also be used for surveillance and piloting.
They tend to be short and squat, rolling on wheels or treads, and programmed to
be analytical and obedient, but astromechs who go decades or centuries without
a memory wipe tend to become quirky and independent--in extreme cases, lying or
going without an owner. They can only speak Binary, and even then normally
speak in simple mathematical equations. "Jedi + T7 = win!" (T7-01, SWTOR)
