LEP-86C8

LEP-86C8 was an LEP-series service droid that helped Doctor Nuvo Vindi with the Blue Shadow Virus during the Clone Wars. He was at Vindi's hidden lab on the planet Naboo. Vindi gave LEP-86C8 the last virus bomb to store in the lab's bomb room, which was witnessed by captured Senator Padmé Amidala. After Vindi was arrested by Republic forces, the droid hid in the lab. He was pursued by the Republic clone troopers, who were attempting to secure and defuse all of the bombs. The Republic forces desperately searched for Vindi's little friend, all too aware that the fate of the galaxy could depend on the destruction of the bombs. LEP-86C8 was later relieved of the explosive by Amidala and Padawan Ahsoka Tano. However, the droid eventually escaped and set off Vindi's virus bombs, destroying himself and unleashing the Blue Shadow Virus into the lab, necessitating its quarantine.
