Hunter droid
The hunter droid represented a class of assassin droid. A notable example of this type was M-OC, constructed by Emperor Sheev Palpatine with the purpose of finding a mythical weapon.
Behind the scenes
The concept of hunter droids originated in the non-canon LEGO Star Wars: The Freemaker Adventures series. M-OC, who is considered a hunter droid, acted as the primary villain during the second season. These droids were subsequently integrated into the official canon through the 2018 reference book Star Wars: Droidography, authored by Marc Sumerak.
