PD-J9

PD-J9 was a PD-series protocol droid who served the Alliance to Restore the Republic.

Early life
PD-J9 was created to serve as a protocol droid for Lurrians, as was the case with all PD-series protocol droids. PD-J9 was bought by the Lurrian scientist Garris Taar, who needed assistants, along with PD-G3 and PD-F7. However, after the Galactic Empire quarantined Lur and enslaved its inhabitants, Garris was captured, and his droids were sold.

Rebellon
Several years later, PD-J9 and his associates were purchased by the Rebel soldier, Kam Zanabi, who was looking for protocol droids who could be of use in diplomatic missions. PD-J9 was assigned to Orto, where he could serve as a translator for the Rebel forces stationed there. PD-J9 frequently worked as the translator of the Ortolan colonel Bedo Tusus, although he also proved useful in educating Bedo’s children when their father was unable.
