Klik-Klak

Klik-Klak was a male Geonosian who lived on Geonosis two years before the Battle of Yavin. The last of his kind, the Geonosian kept a Queen egg hidden under his protection in the hopes of resurrecting his species after the Galactic Empire brought the Geonosians to near-extinction after finishing the primary stage of construction of the Death Star in the planet's orbit.

Klik-Klak had a home in the depths of an old Geonosian temple where he was able to build his own droid army from the resources left by the Confederacy of Independent Systems back from the Clone Wars. With the use of his droids, they were able to ambush anyone or anything that entered the Geonosian's lair. In 2 BBY, Klik-Klak ambushed Saw Gerrera and a team of his Partisans who had been sent by Rebel Command to investigate the disappearance of the Geonosian people. Believing they were threats, he killed all but Saw, who managed to escape.

Later, Klik-Klak encountered members of the rebel cell Spectres who had been sent to find Saw. Following a brief skirmish and pursuit, the rebels and Saw managed to capture him. Despite their initial hostile encounter, the rebel Ezra Bridger managed to convince his comrades and Saw that Klik-Klak was no threat. Klik-Klak attempted to explain to the Rebels the existence of the Death Star but was unable to do so due to only being able to draw a circle within a circle. While exploring an underground air shaft, the rebels and Saw discovered evidence that the Empire had exterminated the Geonosians with chemical weapons. After allowing Klik-Klak to flee underground with the Queen egg, the rebels managed to escape an attack by an Arquitens-class command cruiser and flee offworld with news of the Imperial genocide against the Geonosians.
