Kligson

Legends Canon version → Linked from 18 articles

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

Kligson was a Human cyborg who ruled over Kligson's Moon, a space station made out of starship parts and inhabited solely by droids. A veteran of the Clone Wars and a Captain in the Imperial Army, Kligson was marked for death by the Empire after refusing to lead an invasion of his homeworld, Sucharme. Kligson was rescued by the Grohl Liberation Front and received cybernetic enhancements that saved his life. Afterward, Kligson retreated entirely from contact with other organics, sequestering himself aboard his "Droid World" and only consorting with mechanicals.

Kligson became a spacer legend in the years to come, as word spread of a reclusive technician who could seemingly repair any droid. Kligson kept his moon out of the Galactic Civil War, only for the war to reach his doorstep in 3 ABY, when a group of Rebels asked Kligson to examine a damaged Imperial warbot. That prompted a group of Imperial-sympathizing droids to launch a coup attempt against Kligson, although the cyborg's faction prevailed in the ensuing civil war. Afterward, Kligson retreated even further from organic contact.
