The Basilisk War Droid is a towering 2.9-meter to 5-meter tall Combat Droid designed in ancient times and used by Mandalorian Crusaders as a formidable and ridable droid companion. It has two clawed powerful front legs and four smaller hind legs, with heavy armor, fore, and aft sensor clusters, and high-boost engines that allow them to operate effectively on the ground, in the air, or in the vacuum of space blurring the lines between droid and vehicle. The Basilisk's droid brain gave it a rudimentary, animal-like self-awareness of a semi-sentient degree. Although they could operate independently, most war droids often took the role of loyal mounts to direction-giving riders and had to be powered up or shut down in an eternal process that took seconds. A rider's control of a Basilisk War Droid is directly related to their skill in Piloting. They have a powerful array of armament, with the primary weapon - a cluster of shockwave generator rods that together could form a burst of plasma capable of ripping through starship hulls - residing on the nose.
Armament
1 shockwave generator rod cluster
2 laser cannons
1 pulse-wave cannon
2 shatter-missile launchers
Basilisk War Droid has been programmed with greatly improved combat protocols, allowing it to perform much better in multiple combat scenarios when compared to other Basilisk War Droids.
Basilisk War Droid has been fitted with an advanced gravity generator with an unregulated governor, allowing this Basilisk War Droid to create an incredibly powerful gravity swell that increases the weight of an enemy and dramatically slows an enemy.
Basilisk War Droid has developed a predatory nature similar to those often associated with assassin droids. As a result, Basilisk War Droid 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 Basilisk War Droid.
Regent's Rarities has painstakingly cared for this Basilisk War Droid, and even upon close examination it appears as though Basilisk War Droid was freshly off the manufacturing line. Absent of any scratches, dents or even the slightest imperfections, the only thing missing is the new droid smell.
A tactical jammer has been installed into the chassis of this Basilisk War Droid, allowing it to jam nearby sensor sweeps and render itself invisible to these searches.
