Veritas has developed a predatory nature similar to those often associated with assassin droids. As a result, Veritas will often approach a situation with the mind set of a hunter, and convey their findings as such. This can be disconcerting to others who are unaccustomed to Veritas.

Veritas has received specialized upgrades and programming to all its motivators and actuators, allowing for much smoother and more subtle movements than a standard HK-model Gladiator Droid with a slightly reduced reflex time and movement speed.

Veritas has had every external component painted black as night, with attempts to minimize the brightness of external lights and features. This allows this HK-model Gladiator Droid to more easily blend into the shadows and darkness unseen.

A retractable blade just over a foot in length has been installed inside this HK-model Gladiator Droid, allowing it to defend itself and perform close quarters melee attacks without the need for an additional weapon.

Veritas has been fitted with a built-in comlink that has been encrypted, allowing it to access and communicate securely and safely over various communications networks without additional gear..
