During the Clone Wars, many battle droids fought and died for the separatist alliance,
with most of their actions being programmed by the Central separarist computer.
Some Battle droids however, were able to break free from the central computer, and gain full
control over their actions, including being able to feel strong emotions and desert the
Separatist army.
So, I’m going to breakdown the 7 awesome battle droids, and their stories.
Before we get into it, make sure you’re subscribed for more awesome Star Wars Lore
content.
Number 1.
Mister Bones.
Once the Clone Wars came to a swift end with the destruction of the Separatist council
and the decimation of the Jedi Order through Order 66, all battle droid production factories
were ordered to stop production immediately, leaving them dormant for many years.
As the time of the Empire came however, one Rebel fighter was able to scavenge enough
spare parts from an old separatist droid factory, allowing him to create one of the most murderous,
destructive and violent B1 battle droids to ever grace the galaxy.
His name was Mister Bones.
Mister Bones’ creator, Temmin Wexley, painted the murderous battle droid Red and black,
and attached bones from dead birds and fish to his mechanical limbs.
On top of this, Wexley attached a vibroblade to one of Mr. Bones’ limbs, and also replaced
half of his head with a telescoping red eye, before sharpening Mister Bones’ nose down
to a very fine point, intended to resemble a menacing bird of prey.
Because Temmin Wexley had no friends and was bullied by those around him, Mister Bones
became a very close friend with the boy.
The crazy B-1 unit protected Temmin from a pack of bounty hunters, and After the Battle
of Endor, Mister Bones even helped to rescue New Republic Starpilot, Wedge Antilles from
Rae Sloane, of the imperial Remnant.
Following this, Mister Bones also helped to incite a rebellion on the planet Akiva, before
trying to kill Han Solo not long after, believing he was a threat to his master.
He even helped to liberate a group of Wookie Slaves, including Chewbacca from the horrid
prison on Kashyyk known as Ashmead’s lock.
Finally, Mister Bones served at the battle of Jakku, chopping many sandtroopers to pieces,
before tragically being killed by friendly fire from new Republic A-wing fighters, while
protecting his master.
You can find my full video on Mister Bones in the description below, along with the full
stories of all the others.
Number 2.
B1-CC14
B1-CC14 was a B1 battle droid created by the separatists for the purpose of guarding prison
transports.
After Count Dooku ordered the kidnapping of Clone Trooper Kix because of his discovery
of the inhibitor chips inside of the head of every Clone, he decided to send Kix directly
to his home world of Serenno for further questioning with Darth SIdious.
To do this, Kix was frozen and placed inside of a cryo stasis pod, and then loaded onto
the separatist cruiser known as the Obrexta III, where he was guarded by B1-CC14.
As the Obrexta 3 was on its way to serenno, it was viciously attacked by Republic Forces,
not knowing that Clone Trooper Kix was on board, leaving the separatist ship badly damaged
on all sides.
Realizing that the ship was in absolutely no shape to make it all the way to Serenno,
B1-CC14 disobeyed his orders from Count Dooku to take Kix to serreno, and instead activated
the ship’s emergency distress beacon and hyper drive and jumping into hyperspace without
calculations.
It is still unknown why this B-1 Battle droid disobeyed his orders to this day, but it was
probably due to some small malfunction.
After the swift hyperspace jump was completed, the ship arrived at the dusty atmosphere of
a desert planet known as Ponemah Terminal, where it burned up and crashed into the sandy
surface, leaving Clone Trooper Kix, along with himself stranded on the planet for the
next 50 years, until they were discovered by the Crimson Corsair pirate, and his crew.
Number 3.
Coppertop
During the early months of the Clone Wars, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Commander Cody and the 212th
were stationed on the rocky planet of Bogoa, fighting against the huge hordes of droid
forces there.
While on their mission , Commander Cody noticed something incredibly unusual about one of
the enemy B1-Battle droids.
This B-1 Battle droid was completely friendly to the Clone forces and even provided medical
attention to one of Cody’s injured brothers.
After noticing this, Cody carries his injured brother back to their camp, and Obi-Wan asks
Coppertop then asks coppertop, if you’ve turned your back on life as a ruthless killing
machine, what are your primary protocols”.
Coppertop then awesomely responds, saying “One. to live free.
Two. to protect the weak.
And three.
Rescue strays”.
Obi-Wan is genuinely shocked and confused by this, because these are the exact opposite
traits to the standard B-1 battle droid units.
Because of this, he fought alongside the 212th and helped them in combat against Asajj Ventress.
Unfortunately, he soon surrendered in the middle of the battle, not wanting to cause
any more pain and suffering for Kenobi’s men.
As he was being dragged away by Ventress and her bounty hunter accomplice, he tragically
pulled the bounty hunter’s deactivator switch, destroying his circuits and killing himself
immediately, going out his own way.
Number 4.
Farmer
During the final months of the Clone Wars a battalion of B1 Battle droids were marching
through the important republic farming world of Antamont in order to capture a key Republic
stronghold.
While marching towards their target, a blast mine was detonated, tearing through the droid
forces, leading to something incredibly mysterious happening.
One of the B1 battle droids was sent tumbling through the air, off the nearby cliffside,
hitting his head on a rock below.
This injury gave the b1 battle droid complete independence, and the ability to disobey any
order given to it.
Because of this, the b-1 unit chooses to desert the sepratist droid army, and begins running
from his fellow battle droids.
One of his fellow droids however, a grapple droid, notices his treasonous actions, and
begins chasing him through the mountains and valleys of the planet, trying to bring him
back to the other droids.
As the chase goes on, the B-1 unit manages to convince the Grapple droid that freedom
is the best way to live, telling him that he would rather experience 2 days of free
will, than return to the battlefield for endless ware, destruction and reassembly, before repeating
the cycle.
As the power begins to drain from the Grapple droid’s circuit, he is disconnected from
the central command system, allowing emotions to rush through his circuits.
Sadly, he is very afraid of losing power, but the B1 battle droid reassures him that
he will not be alone in his last moments, before he tragically loses all power and dies.
Sadly, not long after this, the B-1 battle droid also loses power, lying in rest for
many years under a tall tree.
Fortunately for him, many years later two farmers discovered the B-1 unit under a thick
layer of snow, rescuing him and taking him on as a farming assistant at their farm.
Number 5.
Bats
Bats or B1-0516 was a B-1 Battle droid who served in the sepratist army at the battle
of Horain, coming up against Obi-Wan Kenobi and Captain Rex.
During the battle, completely Out of nowhere, one of the droids malfunctions so badly, that
he begins to feel sorry for Rex and Obi-Wan, and begins firing back on his own fellow droid
brothers.
Rex then remarks that this is the first time he’s ever seen a battle droid have a conscience.
Kenobi then asks the droid if he’s ready to switch sides and join the Republic, to
which he quickly responds “You bet - Battle droid B1-0516 at your service”.
In the typical Clone Tradition, Rex refuses to call the droid by his serial number, instead
giving him the nickname Bats.
Bats then immediately begins giving away the tactics of the droid forces and tells Obi-Wan
exactly where the other droids on the planet are hiding.
As battle droid forces began to close in on Kenobi and Rex, Bat’s wielded a pair of
E-5 Blaster rifles and destroyed many of his brothers, allowing Kenobi and Rex to escape.
Unfortunately, despite putting up a massive resistance, Bats was captured and taken to
a nearby separatist camp for analysis of his circuitry.
While there, the commanding tactical droid ordered that Bat’ programming be wiped to
remove his horrible disobedience, but surprisingly, Bat’s resisted this and savagely ripped
the arm off a nearby battle droid, and used it to smash his way out and escape reprogramming.
He was then rescued by Obi-Wan Kenobi inside of an Armored Assault Tank, and brought back
to their republic gunship to serve the Republic from here on out.
While on the Republic gunship, Bats even asked Anakin skywalker to give him a lightsaber
of his own.
Number 6.
Nunzix
After the Call for Order 66 was Given and the Slaughter of the Separatist council on
Mustafar by Darth Vader, almost every single Separatist battle droid received and activated
the galaxy-wide shutdown order from Chancellor Palpatine.
One separatist commando droid however, was able to resist the shutdown order and survive
the Clone wars, going on to become a rebel spy master for the resistance after the fall
of the Empire.
Nunzix was known for his very brash personality, and calling humans meat.
During the first-order resistance cold war, Nunzix served under Resistance spymaster,
C-3PO, yes you heard that right, and was able to discover a large amount of information
while on the planet Kaddak with Poe dameron, relating to the first order leadership and
the location of Supreme leader snoke.
Because of his strong self preservation programming however, he refused to release the information
to C-3PO before leaving Kaddak, because of security concerns.
As they were leaving the planet however, they were shot down and landed on a desert world,
where they managed to flee inside a cave.
They were very quickly chased into the cave by a first order officer named Terex, however,
closing them in.
Thankfully for them, Temmin Wexley and his black squadron had arrived to attempt a rescue.
On top of this, Wexley sent the programming for Mister Bones to Poe Dameron, who very
quickly uploaded it to Nuzix, turning hinto a murderous, savage Commando Droid.
Nunzix then used Mister Bone’s programming to savagely killed many of Terex’s men using
cruel tactics, until eventually he was basted and beheaded, ending his life immediately
and losing the information about Snoke.
Number 7.
Cleaver
Cleaver actually began his life as a Personal navigation droid, and was later rebuilt as
a Commando droid.
After being rebuilt, he served in the Clone unit called the Breakout Squad.
He was originally known as Teejay, but after he was destroyed during the mission to Kynachi,
he was rebuilt using commando droid parts by CT-8863, Breaker.
He was renamed by this Clone Trooper because he was very proficient at using a shockstick
as a weapon.
So those are 7 of the most awesome Battle droids.
Thanks so much for watching, really hope you enjoyed.
Cheers guys, hope to see you in the next one!
