Bug One ( droid ) Bug One was a YVH - Series bugcruncher battle droid that fought for the New Jedi Order during the Dark Nest Crisis . Along with three other bugcrunchers , Bug One accompanied Captain Han Solo of the starship " Millennium Falcon " and a team of Jedi to the moon of Kr on a mission to rescue Jedi Master Luke Skywalker and his wife , Mara Jade Skywalker , from the Killik s of the Gorog nest . In the zero - gravity conditions of the ethmane corridors on Kr , Bug One fought swarms of the Gorog Killiks until he was disabled by a barrage of electrobolt fire as the team made its way to aid the Skywalkers . Biography . Bug One was produced by Tendrando Arms and was active during the period of the Dark Nest Crisis , a series of conflicts in the Unknown Regions involving the Killik s of the Colony , the Chiss Ascendancy , the New Jedi Order , and the Galactic Alliance . In 35 ABY , Tendrando Arms loaned Han Solo , captain of the freighter " Millennium Falcon " , Bug One and three other YVH - Series 5 - S Bugcruncher battle droids , named Bug Two through Four , all of whom were specifically programmed to Solo ' s specifications . The droid quartet accompanied Solo ; his wife and Jedi trainee , Leia Organa Solo ; and a team of four Jedi Knights in the " Millennium Falcon " to the planet Qoribu ' s moon of Kr , the nesting site of the Gorog Killiks , who were manipulating the Colony into engaging the Chiss in increasing acts of warfare . While the Chiss and the Killiks of the Colony clashed above Qoribu , the " Millennium Falcon " took Bug One and the other members of the team down a hangar shaft in Kr ' s ethmane jungles to the nest site , aiming to rescue Jedi Master Luke Skywalker and his wife , Mara Jade Skywalker , who were fighting Gorog Killiks there . Bug One and the other YVH droids disembarked from the freighter ahead of the other passengers into Kr ' s zero - gravity conditions before the entire team ventured into the nest ' s maze of ethmane tunnels , with the non - Jedi members using thrusters and the Jedi using the Force to propel themselves . Before long , Bug One engaged the first of the Gorog whom they found in the fragile ethmane tunnels . Despite their losses , the Gorog came at the rescue team in a relentless swarm , and Bug One , along with Bug Two and Bug Three , soon exhausted their supply of laminanium repair ingots replenishing their armor damaged in the fighting . Seeing that using only blasters and the Jedi ' s lightsabers would not get them through the swarm to find Skywalker and Jade , Solo authorized " " By Any Means " " status , permitting Bug One and the other YVH droids to use their grenade launchers to fight the enemy , despite the fragility of the tunnels . The use of thermal detonators in the droids ' grenade launchers allowed the team to press forward at a much quicker pace , destroying the opposing Killiks in bunches . However , at the head of the team , Bug One met a fierce counterattack from the Gorog at a corner in the tunnels , and a barrage from the Killiks ' electrobolt assault rifle s sent a disabled Bug One spinning into a wall and an armed detonator from his grenade launcher floating near the team . The Jedi used the Force to send the detonator at the Killiks before it could go off , and the rescue team went on to relieve the Skywalkers , who were fighting farther ahead in the tunnels . Characteristics . As a fourth - degree YVH 5 - S Bugcruncher battle droid , Bug One possessed the droid series ' customary masculine programming and the voice of Tendrando Arms creator Lando Calrissian . He was also equipped with the series ' space chassis and had thrusters that permitted him to travel in zero - gravity conditions . Armored in laminanium , Bug One could use ingots of the metal to repair himself mid - battle , and he was further equipped with a blaster cannon , a grenade launcher that fired thermal detonators , a comlink , and green lubricant in his internal systems . The battle droid required authorization to activate " " By Any Means , " " or BAM , status , which allowed him to use any means at his disposal to complete the current task . Behind the scenes . Bug One appeared in the 2005 novel " " , the first volume of " The Dark Nest Trilogy " , written by Troy Denning .
