Unidentified Amorphiian company

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

A company sold mini-transmitters—devices that could translate speech into one of 1,000 other languages—during the Galactic Civil War. Although the company manufactured its products in the Amorphiia system, by 1 ABY, the items were available in other regions of the galaxy. That year, the Wookiee Lumpawarrump constructed one of this company's mini-transmitters on the planet Kashyyyk.

Each mini-transmitter shipped with a bag of tools, a circuit-breaker module, an impulse-to-voice translator, and an instruction cassette to explain the assembly process. This cassette was hosted by a male Amorphiian named Dromboid. Despite his best efforts, Dromboid's tendency to speed up and slow down erratically, common to his species, proved frustrating to Lumpwarrump. Nevertheless, the announcement preceding the instructional cassette insisted that the host's malfunctions did not affect the product itself.
