• General information:
  • Thanks to the long-range sensors in the droids, it can cover a large area and scan continuously to go to the area where these droids are most needed.
  • Due to the processor and memory crystal it contains, they are docile, able to adapt to different environmental and combat effects to be even more efficient in the designated area and situation and they are able to pass this on to the other members of Wolfpack.
  • The Alpha functions as a droid controller, i.e. it can control the entire Wolfpack members under it. In addition, it maintains a continuous “hive consciousness” that allows all droids to receive the positions of others at the same time, so the Wolfpack can move and work in a coordinated manner without disturbing each other in combat.
  • Each droid has a firewall, which makes it difficult to hack them.
• The Alpha:
  • Of the Wolfpack, only Alpha has a Droid control program that allows them to control the other droids that are assigned to it.
  • The Alpha has a Gabonna memory crystal that allows them to store countless military strategies and the information gathered, which is immediately processed and transmitted to the right place.
• The Wolfpack:
  • Thanks to the Alpha, they can work together perfectly. However, if the alpha is destroyed or dropped from the Wolfpack, the hive consciousness remains and they can continue to function because one takes the place of the alpha. Although it will be slower and less trained due the lack of the Alpha's programs or crystal, the herd will remain functional until they get a new Alpha.

STRENGTHS

• Well Protected: They are made of good quality materials and are even protected by a shield, making them quite resistant in combat and difficult to hack because of the firewall.
• Quick: They are able to move fast so they can travel long distances in a very short time.
• Wolfpack: Unity is strength. They work much more efficiently in large numbers and are much more dangerous than alone.

WEAKNESSES

• Quadrupedal: They are only able to move on the ground, which makes it difficult for them to move and progress in certain and difficult areas.
• Exotic weapons: They have minimal protection against exotic weapons, such as lightsabers or disruptors.
• Wolfpack: Unity is strength. They work much more efficiently in large numbers and are much more dangerous than alone.

The HPI Consortium was thinking of developing a droid that would fit to the Clans and the Eternal Empire at the same time. The result was a wolf-looking droid that could be used for both reconnaissance and combat, as this was the main consideration so that they could be used in several different missions.

Because wolves can be found in fauna on most planets, so it may not be so strange for someone to see animals. After the designs, the Valdr Skær-Pattern Dual-Role Droid was created, which is really perfect for reconnaissance and combat. Their pattern of behaviour is modelled and imitates after the ordinary wolves, they are more efficient in packs, and they are led by an Alpha.

They are made of high quality materials, which are also HPI products. They are equipped with a wide range of sensors that make it easier for them to detect and scan the area. They are able to move on many grounds, however, their disadvantage is that they are not able to fly, they can only move on the ground, so they can encounter obstacles in many terrains.

They know countless military tactics and new ones can be programmed into them. They are able to quickly adapt to different effects and combat situations. Thanks to these, these droids can be perfect accessory units for any army. And since they are wolves, the larger their numbers, the more effective they are in exploration and fighting as well.
