BIOGRAPHY
___________________________________________________
Near the end of the Great Galactic War, Czerka Corporation sought to piggyback off the reputation of their successful Hunter-Killer assassin/protocol droid line and transition them into a more widely accessible market: personal protection. They envisioned a security/protocol variant of the HK droid that could be marketed toward government officials, business owners, nobility and other high-end customers who may require spectacular performance in both an office and in danger. The DAC-1 (Diplomacy. Assistance. Combat.) prototypes were built off the limited production HK-51 droid and paired it's already successful etiquette & relations features with cutting-edge security protocols, at the expense of the advanced autonomy that was needed for assassin droids.
DAC-1.P028 was the 28th constructed prototype of the discontinued specialty line. P028 saw a five-year period of testing beginning in 3665 BBY when he was gifted to the Resurgent Sith Empire for an extended trial. During this time, he would serve Imperial Intelligence rather plainly, guarding high-ranking officials and occasionally being put among the retinue of a Sith ambassador. At the end of the trial it was decided by Czerka Corporation that the DAC line, having not generated sufficient interest, would be cancelled and the prototype models de-activated and shelved indefinitely. The remaining DAC-1s were recollected, boxed, labelled as protocol droids to avoid their true purpose should they fall into the wrong hands, and then placed into storage facilities. There P028 would remain for over a millennium, until he was discovered in 2438 BBY by Magetha Grayson of the Jedi Order.
Re-activated and re-programmed to accept the Jedi as his master, P028, or “Dak” as Magetha called him, began his new life in the fires of the raging New Sith Wars. From that day forward, as decades passed by and enemies rose and fell, Dak continued to serve generations of House Grayson as a loyal guardian. That is, until 19 BBY at the Declaration of a New Order. This changed the galaxy in ways no one could have prepared for. In an instant the once revered Jedi were condemned for treason and became the victims of a witch hunt, forced into exile in a galaxy they had spent years fighting to protect. The knowledge of the Graywall, the Grayson family’s ancestral home, was lost in the Purge -- taking Dak with it.
Once more centuries would pass, this time locked deep within the ghost halls of House Grayson. It wouldn’t be until 851 ABY that the young Jedi Master Cedric Grayson would rediscover the Graywall while seeking knowledge of his ancestry. Inside, the ancient droid still remained, ready to continue his service. Although, much had changed since he last woke. The galaxy had seen devastation the likes of which he struggled to comprehend and the House he'd served was reduced to just one man. In addition, the extended time spent in hibernation had changed the old droid. New feelings and thoughts emerged from the tearing seams of his previously shackled intelligence, and with them came unfamiliar struggles of identity and purpose.
STRENGTHS & WEAKNESSES
___________________________________________________
+ Artificial Construct: As a droid, Dak does not require sleep, food, water or oxygen to survival, and he does not become fatigued from prolonged activity. Due to the artificial nature of his mind, he also possesses the ability to download and manipulate protocols to improve and/or alter his own function, and his body is significantly more durable than that of [most] organics.
+ Forgotten: Because of the era and limited nature of his construction, it would be extremely unlikely for someone to recognize his model and purpose. Being an unrecognized model can allow Dak to better hide his security capabilities when acting as a protocol accomplice, if necessary.
+/- Aged Frame: The term "they don't make X like they used to" is often used to describe something having been better in the past. But when it comes to droids and a few millennia, this is not the case. In the last 4,000 years weapons have become stronger, armour more durable and technology far more advance, and Dak is well behind on all of it. He will require many upgrades and modification to be brought up to the standards of modern equivalents.
- Faulty: Because of his age and numerous periods of prolonged hibernation, some of Dak's software and hardware have worn down and require upgrades. The most notable consequence of this degradation has been significant corruption in his memory banks, which has fragmented much of his past.
- Do Droids Dream of Electric Sheep?: No matter how advanced the replication may be, Dak is a droid and therefore some may argue that he does not possess legitimate sentience. This may not always be obvious when interacting with him and one could easily forget that he is the product of advanced cognitive simulation, but certain concepts manage to go over his means of comprehension.
