11-4D

11-4D, pronounced OneOne-FourDee and often referred to as 4D or FourDee, was a masculine-programmed, multi-appendaged bipedal medical droid that served under several masters in the decades preceding the Clone Wars. 11-4D originally worked in a medical facility on the planet Obroa-skai before the Togruta Ellin Lah, captain of the freighter Woebegone, became 11-4D's new owner. In 67 BBY, the Muun Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Plagueis killed the entire crew during the freighter's trip to Ithor and took 11-4D into his possession, with the droid easily switching masters to the Muun. From then on, 11-4D helped his master with Plagueis's work, including the Muun's search for immortality. The droid helped Plagueis track down three Force-sensitives that the Bith Sith Lord Darth Venamis, whom Plagueis had captured after dueling and defeating him, had been considering as possible apprentices.

11-4D and Plagueis tracked the first, a shapeshifting Shi'ido, to the planet Lianna, where they later captured the Shi'ido before letting him go. After Plagueis found the second on the planet Saleucami, 11-4D and the Muun located the last, a Nautolan by the name of Naat Lare, on the world of Abraxin; Lare died in a confrontation with two Jedi later the same day that 11-4D and his master found him. A year after meeting Plagueis, 11-4D was introduced to the young Naboo native Palpatine on the planet Chandrila; Palpatine would later become Plagueis's Sith apprentice and take the name Darth Sidious. In 52 BBY, 11-4D was at Plagueis's side in the Fobosi District on the planet Coruscant while attending the initiation of the Muun Larsh Hill into the exclusive Order of the Canted Circle. There they survived an attack by Maladian assassins hired by the enemies Plagueis had made over the years by negatively affecting them with his plans.

After transferring their base of operations from the island Aborah on Muunilinst to the moon of Sojourn, 11-4D continued to help Plagueis with his work. There, the Muun let Venamis, who had been in a comatose state since his capture, die in front of Palpatine and 11-4D, and then brought the Bith back to life via midi-chlorian manipulation, proving how far the Muun had come in his quest for immortality. At some point between 34 BBY and 32 BBY, Plagueis was once again targeted by his enemies, this time on Sojourn itself. 11-4D and Plagueis escaped in the starship Scimitar, moments before Plagueis's opponents devastated Sojourn with a nuclear bomb, obliterating the facility and the surrounding landscape. A year later, on the eve of the election of Palpatine, Naboo's incumbent Senator, to the office of Supreme Chancellor, the Senator killed his Master, leaving 11-4D under Palpatine's possession.
