The 5DS Ebranite Relations Droid, a protocol droid designed by Cybot Galactica, was created to interact with members of the Ebranite species.
These 5DS units were built utilizing the framework of the 3PO-series protocol droids. A key characteristic of the 5DS models was the addition of supplementary limbs and a more robust body, intended to mimic the appearance of the six-limbed Ebranites.
During their occupation of Ebra, the Galactic Empire utilized 5DS droids.
Rith Tar'ak, a Rebel operative and Ebranite who worked as a recruiter on Ebra, was given a 5DS droid named A-5DS to assist her in her duties.
