Frija Torlock ( droid ) A female Human replica droid , Frija Torlock was one of two droids made to mimic the real Frija and her father Governor Torlock . Biography . Frija and her " father " were created by the scientist , Massad Thrumble . The droids were created for Governor Torlock as a precaution should the Alliance to Restore the Republic ever attack Corulag . However , the attack did not come from the Rebellion but from his Torlock ' s daughter , who planned to assume control of Corulag with her paramour , Admiral Droon . Torlock activated the two HRDs and fled the planet while the droids acted as decoys . Eventually , the two droids became split up and the droid of Torlock was captured by Admiral Droon ' s men . The HRD of Frija was oblivious of these events , and taking on the role of the real Frija , she called Droon to ask why her father was missing . Droon ordered the droid to remain where she was and sent his men to capture the droid . Droon planned a scene where Black Sun assassins would eliminate the droid and a hologram of her " father " and blame the entire fiasco on the Rebels leaving him free to take the Governor ' s seat . However , Droon did not plan on the interference of Darth Vader , and his agent Wrenga Jixton . Jix killed the assassins and saved Frija . With the droid ' s help , he unraveled the conspiracy , rescued Frija ' s droid father , and captured Admiral Droon . Jix brought his prisoner and the two droids back to Coruscant . Jix then refueled their ship and told them to find a remote planet and stay there . Frija thanked Jix , and the two left for the Outer Rim , finally settling on the ice planet of Hoth . Frija and her father made a life for themselves on Hoth , but Frija began to become incredibly lonely , longing for a male companion . When Luke Skywalker and C - 3PO crash - landed on Hoth , Frija initially remembered her father ' s orders to stay away from organics and abandoned the two . However , Frija ' s loneliness caused her to reconsider and she ended up saving the pair . Frija ' s " father " was furious and ordered her to dismantle 3PO for parts and to throw Luke back out into the cold . Luke was not about to allow himself to be frozen to death , and he stopped Frija ' s father from throwing him out , using his lightsaber to disarm him . Luke then locked Frija ' s father in a supply closet and tried to think of a plan to get off Hoth . Luke ' s communicator had been damaged in the crash , but he planned to combine the droid ' s communicator with his own to create a working model . Frija agreed to help him in this endeavor , and the two departed on tauntauns to Luke ' s damaged ship , leaving C - 3PO behind to guard Torlock . However , Torlock ' s hidden weapons helped him escape C - 3PO ' s grasp , and he chased after his daughter to stop Luke from signaling the Rebel Alliance . At the site of the crash , Luke and Frija succeeded in creating a working communicator , and Frija had decided that she wanted to leave Hoth with Luke . However , before Luke could activate the communicator , Torlock appeared and threatened Luke with a blaster . Learning of the repaired communicator , Torlock took aim at the device , but his aim was off . Torlock ' s blaster bolt struck his " daughter " in the back , severely damaging her inner workings . Torlock became distraught over the turn of events and tried to kill Luke Skywalker in revenge . With no other choice , Luke was forced to strike down the deranged droid , discovering that Frija and her father were both HRDs . Frija thanked Luke for giving her life purpose before her systems shut down . Luke buried the two droids on Hoth before the " Millennium Falcon " arrived to rescue himself and C - 3PO . Sometime later , Luke Skywalker ran into the mind - witch S ' ybll , who was masquerading as the real Frija . Luke thought she was the droid version until the ruse was lifted and the witch was eliminated .
