DESCRIPTION

For most of its existence, the Mahporeem Imperial Remnant has had little use for protocol droids, as it has been isolated from the greater galaxy for hundreds of years. With Mahporeem's ascension into the Imperial Confederation however, a massive demand for protocol droids was essentially created overnight. As these types of droids are in short supply on Mahporeem, the Imperial Remnant has decided to create its own protocol droids from scratch.

The resulting Junkyard Protocol Droids have been programmed to fulfill many of the same functions that standard protocol fulfill, such as translating the various languages spoken on Mahporeem, entertaining and escorting guests around the planet and storing important information about different alien cultures in their databanks. These droids seem capable of fulfilling these tasks quite admirably, despite their rather "ad hoc" nature and various droid components.

That being said, many of these droids tend to exhibit rather distinct personalities, and their general mannerisms and speech patterns can be quite off putting to organic beings. Despite their various personality quirks, Junkyard Protocol Droids have become indispensable to the Mahporeem Imperial Remnant, regardless of how much they may annoy those around them.
