SPECIAL FEATURES

• Able to directly interface with applicable systems.
• Able to latch on as 'backpack' accessory to applicable armors and/or equipment, allowing it to travel a tad more low-profile with its owner.

STRENGTHS

• Hit and Run: Extremely agile and light-weight, T-0x is foremost a reconnaissance probe, and thereafter a deadly assassin in the right conditions. With a small, compact frame and both repulsors and legs for movement, it makes it easier to fit into tighter spots or find better areas for surveillance, or make a speedy escape. With the addition of a Cloaking Device, it moreover makes it a difficult target to notice and hit in a fight.
• Target Acquisition: Outfitted with a variety of scanners, this droid makes for a searching Bounty Hunter's best friend. Fed the proper information, it can acquire multitudes of targets based on its suite, and patch it directly to a suitable HUD for easy access to information.

WEAKNESSES

• Support, not Solo: T-0x's design is ultimately meant to facilitate a supportive role on any field they find themselves. While they hold capabilities that can fend off a measure of aggression and give an equal amount of such aggression in kind, its kit is focused on giving their restorer an edge in many scenarios. This droid will not be one-man-army'ing anytime soon.
• Shield or Stealth: While it is equipped with both a Shield Generator and a Stealth Field Generator, it cannot have both activated at the same time, and it cannot switch between the two instantly due to interference with each other's systems.
• Itty Bitty Living Space: While its chassis and defenses have been upgraded from its factory-issued ones, this does not change the fact it is still a Seeker Probe on the smaller side of the scale. As such, it can still be fairly easily knocked around by attacks (notably when using repulsorlift travel) and there's only so much damage a small chassis can sustain before systems begin getting affected.

DESCRIPTION

A mostly discarded and unused Model by Arakyd Industries, T-0X is from a line of Arak-Series Probe Droids fitted for usage as Seekers - downsized from the original specifications and designed to be used alongside Police Units and Law Enforcement. These primary functions included surveillance, security operations, as well as hunt down fugitives.

Compared to most other products produced, this specific line eventually found its way to the scrap heap in the face of success of competition and more successful models. This is where Samuel Exel, by then scavenging for parts and droids to reactivate and eventually sell off, came across this particular unit. It was in a state of disrepair, and the intimidating visage did not seem to sell very well to prospective customers. As such, it was reluctantly kept. When the man eventually became a Bounty Hunter, its systems saw a revamp and the droid found a new lease on its founding function, now apart of the probe droids to rarely assist Exel with particularly hard-to-find quarries. Originally, it had slave-link programming directly connected to his armor, but he found micro-managing it while in combat too taxing and cumbersome. Due to this, it was outfitted with a proper droid brain, of which quickly developed its own small mannerisms and thoughts.

There is a mild affection in the name 'Tox,' be it in reference to the many hazardous payloads the droid could bring or the occasionally poor behavior it exhibits on account of its base programming.
