8D-J8

Canon Linked from 17 articles

8D-J8 was an 8D-series smelter droid manufactured by Roche Hive. At one time, the droid was aboard the sail barge of Jabba Desilijic Tiure on the planet Tatooine. He was later purchased by the butcher Bakkar and brought to the Outer Rim planet Batuu, where he was reprogrammed by the droid builder Mubo to serve as the pitmaster turning the spit at Bakkar's Ronto Roasters restaurant.

In 34 ABY, 8D-J8 offered Kendoh Gang member Remex Io a Ronto Wrap, which the gangmember declined. He was also turning the spit and mumbling to himself when the local Salju brought the Resistance spy Vi Moradi to the restaurant for food. During the occupation of Batuu by the First Order, the droid's owner complained to Mubo about his programming, and the droid builder reluctantly agreed to reprogram him again.
