Background
Commissioned in the waning days of the Clone Wars, R5-2B was assigned to a squadron sent alongside a Jedi Commander to the Outer Rim, equipped with specialist tools to assist against the war with the Separatists. The Squadron never returned after the great Jedi Betrayal, and since the rise of the Galactic Empire 2B has been another on the long list of droids lost in the line of duty.
Motivation
Friendship: 2B values companionship after spending time with that friendly Jedi. Even some of the clone brothers warmed up to him.
Wanderlust: It's been a long time since 2B was transmitted any orders from Coruscant. He's decided he's probably earned a vacation, and would love to see more of the galaxy.
Obligations
Dutybound - For The Republic!:
2B was built for the Republic, and even though he's not been given orders in a little while, would be happy to carry out any more!
Criminal:
Being left to his own devices wasn't very well accounted for in 2B's programming, so when left alone on an Outer Rim world he found himself getting into a little bit of trouble. But how else was he supposed to stop his slicing algorithms from degrading?
Description
A beat-up little astromech baring the colours of a bygone Republic era, 2B trundles along with purpose and optimism all the same.
