Canon Legends version → Linked from 19 articles
IG-102 was one of the two IG-100 MagnaGuards, with IG-101, that served as General Grievous's droid bodyguards aboard the Invisible Hand during the Battle of Coruscant. He was programmed to automatically learn combat and refined his combat skills in long training sessions with Grievous. Due to his training, he could wield two electrostaffs at the same time.
During the battle above Coruscant, he engaged Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi in combat and was beheaded early on in the fight, but remained functioning and able to fight. Eventually, however, Kenobi managed to get inside the MagnaGuard's guard and cleave him in two; his body fell apart with a metallic groan, still grasping feebly at the Jedi.
Grievous picked up IG-102's electrostaff and briefly dueled Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker before using it to shatter the front window of the cruiser, allowing him to escape while Kenobi, Skywalker, and Supreme Chancellor Palpatine managed to stay in the ship, but Grievous was sucked into space to get to the escape pods.
