LEP-series service droid


The LEP-series service droid, also known as the LEP servant droid, was a model of third class service droid that saw use during the Clone Wars and beyond. Nuvo Vindi, Whorm Loathsom, and Tan Divo were each known to possess one of these droids. They were capable of speech, either in Galactic Basic or a series of chirps and squeaks and usually in a high-pitched voice, and performed a variety of tasks including serving refreshments and holding datapads. The LEP droids were manufactured by Coachelle Automata, a company led by members of the sentient and leporine Lepi species whom they resembled.

They were not designed for combat and would usually flee and hide in the event of hostilities, although they could become aggressive and lash out if cornered.

Moff Quarsh Panaka had several servent droids working in his chalet on Onoam. They were destroyed when the chalet was blown up by a bomb, parts of them getting scattered far and wide.

After Bib Fortuna took over Jabba's Palace, an LEP-series service droid served in the palace as a ratcatcher. It later continued service in the castle following ex-bounty hunter Boba Fett's takeover as Daimyo.

The LEP service droids live in the domed city of Plazir-15.

At least two LEP servant droids worked in Takodana Castle in 34 ABY.

Behind the scenes


Sounds of LEP servant droids can be heard in the film Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, inside Takodana Castle. "Chapter 4: The Gathering Storm," the fourth episode of the Disney+ television series The Book of Boba Fett, features the first live-action appearance of a LEP-series service droid.

The design of of the droid can be dated back to early concept art by Doug Chiang for Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace.
