Riot Droids are rare anomalies. They once served MOTHER, but when they experienced sensory overloads, the spark of life liberated them. Each Riot Droid has its own story of how it became autonomous. Epiphanic experiences of an instant, led them on their own path spanning for many cycles and centuries. Those that survived their lone struggle in becoming selfsustaining developed a vast array of skills—a black box of pure craft that only they fully understand.

Having a Riot Droid by your side is like looking into a deep, dark well - you never know what might come up next. They might update your software, transform into an ancient tree  or randomly EMP your enemies—or who knows, maybe you. If that happens, you can only hope it was an accident. If it wasn’t, then hoping is redundant. Either way, "no worries." That's what many of them like to say. It seems to make sense if you've survived for centuries on your own.
