PLNK-series power droid

PLNK-series power droids, nicknamed "plunk droids" for their distinctive vocalizations, were four-legged power droids manufactured by Industrial Automaton during the Clone Wars. They spoke a form of droidspeak similar to Gonkian and functioned as containment and refueling units for liquid tibanna gas, which they equipped various starships and equipment with. Though not built with the near-limitless capacity of standard power droids, their tibanna-driven generators were enough to provide the Grand Army of the Republic's listening posts with sufficient power to execute their needs. The droids served the Republic Navy, working aboard Venator-class Star Destroyers; as well as the Confederacy of Independent Systems, counting freighters that passed through the Separatist blockade of the Gwori system. PLNK-series units were also used on Republic-affiliated worlds such as Coruscant, Rodia, and Mandalore.
