R4-P17

R4-P17 was an Astromech Droid belonging to Obi-Wan Kenobi. She accompanied him on many missions from Geonosis to Tatooine to the Battle of Coruscant, and was his loyal companion for many years. Despite having a generally bleak view of technology in general, Obi-Wan did eventually begin to see the use of an Astromech Droid and became quite attatched to his little companion.

Sadly, their friendship came to an abrupt end when R4-P17 was attacked whilst manning the Astromech Droid socket of Obi-Wan's Jedi Starfighter by a complement of Buzz Droids, who used their Buzz Saws to tear off her dome and fling it into space. Obi-Wan showed little concern at this, commenting little more than simply 'Oh dear' on the matter, as the Droid itself would probably be salvagable. However, hope of a resurrection for R4 were lost when the rest of her body was disintergrated in the destruction of Obi-Wan's starfighter.
