IG-72

IG-72 is a notorious assassin droid that was created by the same company that created the four IG-88 units. IG-72 was funded and designed by an Imperial scientist who believed he was manufacturing the perfect assassin, but what he really created was the perfect psycopath. IG-72 was quickly taken offline by his creators, and his body was used in the creation of IG-88. The difference between IG-72 and IG-88 was that IG-88 was fitted with morality cores, but these were incorrectly aligned and turned him into a murderous philosopher.

IG-72 was freed from the laboratory when a psycological overload in IG-88's brain allowed him to break free and upload his consciousness into the other 3 IG units. IG-72 teamed up with his newfound brothers and slaughtered all the scientists in the facility before leaving in his own ship. Leaving the 88s to their business, IG-72 decided to become an assassin in his own right, and he took advantage of the media hype that was thrown up around IG-88's escape to further his career.

IG-72 outlived most droids of his class due to his obsession with self-repair and self-preservation. He carried out over 1,000 political assassinations within the Force Galaxy, mostly dealing with crime lords, corrupt officials and tyrants. He had a habit of downloading the data from personal mainframes of his victims, so he had a vast knowledge of the Galaxy stored in his hard drives.
