Eigy

"I am an IG-100 MagnaGuard Battle Droid; designation MG-2119, software version 2.1.16." "Cool. I'm just gonna call you Eigy." "This is acceptable.""

- Eigy and Ren Silber

Eigy is the name given to a Clone Wars era IG-100 MagnaGuard battle droid that had survived the previous galactic conflict, eventually gaining its own sapience and personality and working independently against the Galactic Empire. It would eventually join Ren Silber and his crew in the Sovereign Outcast.

Clone Wars
Eigy was originally created by Holowan Mechanicals as IG-100 designation MG-2119, a MagnaGuard in service to the supreme commander of the Confederacy of Independent Systems droid army, General Grievous. As a personal guard to the droid general, it was trained in all seven forms of lightsaber combat, as were all the others. MG-2119 would see frontline combat many times and is one of a few MagnaGuards to secure at least one Jedi kill, having defeated two in its career during the Clone Wars, and assisting General Grievous himself in several others.

However, MG-2119 would eventually be heavily damaged in a skirmish above the planet Ciphos in 19 BBY, being shot down and nearly destroyed. The droid, however, survived, if barely, and sought to continue its directive to serve the CIS. However, it was shortly thereafter that Order 66 was executed, bringing a swift end to the Clone Wars. As the droid was damaged in the crash, the deactivation switch programmed into it malfunctioned, and MG-2119 failed to recieve the universal shutdown signal, thereby making him possibly the last active battle droid in the CIS army. Now cut off from the primary droid mainframe, MG-2119 then resorted to his secondary directive to operate independently in such a case, resorting to using scrapped parts from its destroyed starfighter to perform rudamentary repairs on itself, allowing it to move again.

Its primary directive in this situation would be to reconnect with the CIS droid mainframe. However, such a mainframe no longer existed, and with the rise of the Empire, MG-2119 would come to realize that the war had indeed ended, and the Confederacy of Independent systems was no more. Faced with this predicament, MG-2119 decided to continue operating independently, deciding to conduct clandestine strikes on various Imperial facilities and outposts throughout the galaxy. With such attacks beginning small and infrequent and growing more bold and dangerous as time went on, MG-2119 began to develop its own sapience and personality with its experiences, as it was no longer bound to procedural memory wipes, and by 4 BBY, the droid had become a serious issue to the Empire.

Encounter with Ren Silber
MG-2119 had established a fairly lucrative bounty on its head with its attacks on Imperial facilities and outposts that were relatively isolated around the galaxy. MG-2119 had settled on attacking a small Imperial outpost near the Covensaire System that was lightly guarded. The assault was successful, but the droid's starfighter was destroyed and all escape pods were launched, stranding it onboard the dead station. With its location now revealed, it knew that it was only a matter of time before Imperials or a bounty hunter would be sent to capture or destroy it, and it didn't take long after for a bounty to be sent on it, with Ren Silber and Trent Allet accepting the job and travelling to the outpost in order to capture the rogue droid. MG-2119 ambushed Ren Silber in the comms center of the station, and in the ensuing fight disarmed Ren of his blaster pistol. MG-2119 recognized Ren's unique fighting style, deducing that Ren was a Jedi. Ren would dispute this statement, telling the droid that the Jedi Order was long gone, but nevertheless displayed his Force aptitude by Force pushing the droid into a wall and calling his blaster back into his hand, shooting MG-2119's electrostaff out of its hand and moving in to disable it with a stunrod, successfully shutting the droid down.

After being delivered back to the space station in orbit above Covensaire, Ren and Trent discovered that they had been betrayed by their contractor, Craz Madda, and sold out to the Empire. Ren, however, took his blaster and shot the stunrod still embedded in the droid, disabling it and causing MG-2119 to reactivate, whereupon it drew multiple hidden blaster pistols and began firing on the Imperial forces, assisting Ren and Trent in escaping to the Black Dawn. Upon escaping, MG-2119 introduced itself to Ren and Trent, and upon the two explaining their situation decided to assist them for the time being. It was at this point that Ren gave MG-2119 an easier name, calling it Eigy, a name which the droid found acceptable.

Eigy would assist Ren and Trent in repairing the Black Dawn, plotting a course to Raxus Prime in order to use the scrap abundant on the junk world to perform the repairs. Over the course of several days, the droid's resourcefulness proved useful as it was able to provide multiple built-in tools and engineering knowledge to help the two repair the ship, working non-stop while Ren and Trent required periods of rest and sustenance. With Eigy's help, the Black Dawn was brought back to working order, whereupon it was renamed the Sovereign Outcast.
