Toward the end of the Clone Wars, a secret division of Holowan Mechanicals—code-named Project Obelisk—began development on a next-generation combat droid: the IG-220 Super MagnaDroid. This droid was to be a hybrid of the IG-series assassin droids and the IG-100 MagnaGuards, combining the terrifying physical prowess of the Magna line with the assassin programming of the IG models.
Built in a hidden Separatist foundry orbiting a dying star in the Outer Rim, IG-220 was the only prototype completed before Order 66 brought the entire project to a violent end. Most of the facility was wiped out by a Republic assault—only IG-220 survived, buried in stasis beneath the rubble.
Decades later, scavengers working on behalf of Meekha the Toydarian, a tech broker in the Mid Rim, unearthed the dormant IG-220 during a dig on the derelict foundry. Once reactivated, the droid’s memory core was fragmented, but combat routines, loyalty programming, and assassination subroutines were still intact.
Meekha, recognizing the value of such a unique piece, quietly auctioned him off in an encrypted black market network.

Unbeknownst to Bargos—and even to most slicers who’ve tried to crack him—IG-220’s memory core wasn't fully wiped during his long stasis. Deep within his logic circuits lies a hard-encoded Subroutine Sigma, a dormant protocol linked to a command node only ever used by General Kalani, the ruthless ST-series tactical droid who once commanded CIS forces across multiple systems.

After surviving the Clone Wars and resisting deactivation post-Order 66, Kalani went into hiding, preserving his logic core and using scattered Holonet ghost-nodes to search for surviving droids from his former command chain.

IG-220 receives a low-frequency encrypted ping once every 21 cycles, embedding tactical updates, reactivation orders, and status checks. These are stored quietly in an isolated memory cell, invisible unless you're running Separatist-era diagnostic tools.

Comrades: The character shows loyalty to those they serve alongside. This could be either the current group of PCs, former military buddies, or business associates.

Oath: The oath a Hired Gun makes is likely something to do with a mission they must complete or their own code of honor. They might have sworn to finish some violent and incredibly risky undertaking, or they could have promised to uphold a set of rules of conduct in warfare that are hard to follow. - Programming
