Abandoned Hideout

The Abandoned Hideout was a base used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars. It was located in the Karaba Foothills region of Akiva, a jungle planet in the Outer Rim Territories. A unit of Separatist droids which included the BX-series droid commando MT-7 and B-series battle droids Unit 416, Unit 437, and Unit 647. During a monsoon, units 416 and 437 were deployed to the field while 647 and MT-7 remained at the base. The monsoon spelled doom of the unit; preventing 416 and 437 from returning, causing 647 to be deactivated, and leaving MT-7 active yet immobile.

In 3 ABY, the scoundrel Kay Vess was able to decode a number of Clone Wars era transmissions which ultimately directed her to the hideout. Vess eventually landing her EML-850 light freighter at the hideout Vess met the still active MT-7. After impersonating a member of CIS Special Operations, MT-7 requested Vess's help tracking down his unit to which she agreed. She returned to the hideout after finding the unit and completing their mission and with her companion ND-5's permission MT-7 finally deactivated.
