Em-Sevenbee, an R5 series astromech droid, provided service to a colony of refugees situated on the planet Gabredor III. Following the malfunction of the colony's protocol droid, and its subsequent lack of replacement by Tauntaza, the planet's governor, the colonists started utilizing Em-Sevenbee for record-keeping. During the period between 3 ABY and 4 ABY, the Sith Lord Darth Vader journeyed to the colony. This occurred after he consented to aid Sabé, a former handmaiden, in rescuing the colony from the governor. The governor had begun employing the Crimson Dawn criminal organization to strengthen her authority, while also disregarding the needs of the planet's inhabitants. Upon their arrival at the colony, the forensics droid ZED-6-7 was instructed to access Em-Sevenbee. ZED-6-7 obtained information revealing that the governor had only provided thirty-seven percent of the vital supplies promised to the colony. It was also revealed that the governor had forcibly drafted thirty-three colonists, none of whom ever came back. Shortly thereafter, Em-Sevenbee went with Vader and ZED-6-7 to a nearby forest. After ZED-6-7 connected to EM-Sevenbee once more, it was discovered that the region was experiencing a drought.
