LIN-34 was a droid that functioned during the time of the Galactic Civil War. Following the Battle of Yavin, LIN-34 was employed by Jabba the Hutt's criminal empire on Tatooine, under the supervision of Jabba's cruel EV-series supervisor droid, named EV-9D9. In the year 1 ABY, LIN-34, along with three other droids, specifically R3-B57, RA-316, and BD-34, made an escape from Jabba's Palace. Consequently, EV-9D9 contracted a spacer to locate and retrieve the escaped droids. The Ay'Nat pirates, who were enemies of Jabba, provided an AEG-77 Vigo yacht, along with an X-wing starfighters escort, with the intention of extracting LIN-34 from the Tatooine system. However, the yacht that was carrying LIN-34 was destroyed by Jabba's pilots, and its escort was also eliminated.
The character LIN-34 appeared in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies. This game was a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game which was developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts, until it was shut down on December 15, 2011. LIN-34 was incorporated into the game through the "Legacy Quest" update, coinciding with the release of "Publish 25," also known as the "New Game Enhancements," on November 15, 2005.
