Thresco
Mando Jedi
Some years had gone by since his clan had been massacred, his master killed and he himself left with nothing. Using old contacts of his fallen relatives, Thresco had gotten a part-time job at MandalMotors, a prestigious company known for various feats of craftsmanship such as the QV-3 Disruptor, an energy weapon that was still used in various starfighters of their own design. Having grown up among flora and fauna, the only thing he really knew how to work was the forge, and even in those respects he was not exactly the greatest. During the first year, he felt more like a paid intern that was gradually learning how the company did things, becoming a better engineer in time. During the second year, his skill as an engineer was worlds apart from what it had been before. In fact, he had gotten so good at it that he had started learning more about computers, networks and eventually the art of slicing. While self taught, a trained engineer did not need a whole lot of guidance when it came to self-educating oneself. After all, one either had the talent for it or one didn't, there was usually no middle ground involved.
On one fateful day, a Kom'rk class ship was brought in, full of spare droid parts that were set to be melted down into their base materials. From the heap, he took about a dozen parts home with him, primarily heads. This was not because he was some creepy psychopath head collector, but because the heads were full of processors, memory banks, data chips and a great deal of leftover coding he would get to tinker with. After booting up some of the heads, he found out that some of them had been damaged beyond repair and would never be able to function properly again. Those he just took apart for parts completely, hoping that they might serve again in the creation of something new, thus being reborn. The five droid heads that still functioned were all taken to a large workbench where Thresco could keep accurate track of them, hoping to observe more of their behavior, their purpose and maybe even catch a glimpse of their personality. All of it would help him in the creation of something new, something better than a regular droid brain in every way imaginable. As the five heads stood on the workbench, they were all hooked up to the same computer which constantly ran diagnostics, documenting everything that happened inside of the active droid's head. And so the work began.
