KX-series security droid

**KX-series security droids**, also known as **KX-series enforcer droids**, **KX enforcer droids**, or **executor droids**, were a model of security droid manufactured by Arakyd Industries that was in service to the Galactic Empire during the Galactic Civil War.

## Characteristics

Arakyd Industries KX series Enforcer droids came equipped with a built-in comm package, recharge port, and a computer interface arm that allowed them to connect with standard communication frequencies for areas they were assigned to. The Imperial crest was imprinted on the side of each shoulder, one of which could be emblazoned in gold if the droid had received an enhanced status. The droids were designed with exaggerated human proportions but with the mobility of a human athlete. They were able to operate a variety or tools and equipment and can carry gear without becoming exhausted.

While the Imperial Senate had prohibited the creation of battle droids, Arakyd was able to use a loophole in the law by marketing the KX-series as "security droids." They were programmed without the standard restriction against harming organic sentient lifeforms.

The KX-series droids were programmed to speak and interact with people, but were not as proficient at it as protocol droids were. They could handle a wide range of tasks, including escorting dignitaries, protecting important people and defending Imperial installations. The droids were also programmed to recognize and defer to Imperial Military officers ranked Lieutenant or higher.

## History

Following the defeat of the Empire, the New Republic elected to use the KX-series for its own security. The KX-series would continue to be used by some Imperial Remnants including the Pentastar Alignment and the Dark Empire. K-7R3, a former Imperial KX-series droid, was salvaged by Indiana Jones from the Wastelands Of Kullgroon and reprogrammed to become his best friend and copilot.
