Background
Recycled, reprogrammed, and reused by the Rebellion in their fight against the Empire, B1-A17X, or "Alex" as he likes to be called, was embedded with the personality of a Correllian by that same name. This personality combined with the natural piloting abilities of standard OOM Piloting Programs make Alex who he is, and he's convinced he's the best damn droid pilot to ever step off the production line, his words, not mine. He strangely has picked up on the natural Correlian charm and cool that came with his creator, though none of the skill that comes with it. In addition, the Rebellion gave him subtle upgrades to his motor systems, increasing his speed and agility for the cost of much needed strength.
Motivation
Programmed with Correllian personality programs, Alex seeks the next great thrill.
