R4-N3, commonly referred to as Raine, is a hero character who has yet to be introduced. She is an Astromech Droid who works alongside Deryll, and is currently situated on Tatooine.
Activated by Deryll's parents before the Duros was even born, Raine has been a part of that family for many years, working diligently alongside them maintaining their ships and assisting however she can. When Deryll was born, Raine was delighted and did everything she could to help take care of the new addition to the family. It was a sad day when the Empire attack took her family, but she still had Deryll, and she swore to do everything in her power to keep the child safe and raise her properly.
Raine has continued to stick by Deryll's side, no matter what the situation is, and will go wherever Deryll goes. Raine did everything she could to help Deryll raise enough money to buy themselves a ship, an old Delta-7, and then assisted when it came to saving funds for, and doing the repairs on, the ship. It took them years, but they were ready to head for the stars and do what they pleased, helping those in need as they came across them. The two wound up on Tatooine, where they found a small movement against the Empire, and Raine decided there was strength in numbers and that these people could not only help keep her Deryll safe but also allow them to continue as they had been - exploring the stars and helping the innocent.
Personality[]
Raine has developed a motherly personality thanks to spending so much time raising Deryll, becoming a bit overprotective and sort of a worrywart when it comes to Deryll's safety. However, she also knows to respect Deryll's boundaries, so while she may scold her now and again when she does dangerous things, she still lets her keep going out to do them. Raine cares deeply about Deryll and would do whatever it took to keep her safe, to the point that it's sometimes hard to tell which one is in charge of who. Like Deryll, Raine enjoys flying and the stars and so will sometimes leave with her for months at a time to simply explore the skies beyond.
Droids do not need to eat, sleep, or breathe and are unaffected by toxins and poisons.
Droids have a cubernetic implant cap of 6 instead of their Brawn rating.
In addition, after selecting a career, a droid Player Character may train one rank each in six of the eight career skills (instead of the usual four). After selecting a specialization, a droid PC may train one rank each in three of the four specialization skills (instead of the usual two).
Inorganic: Since droids are inorganic, they do not gain the benefits of recovering with a bacta tank, a stimpack, or Medicine skill checks. Droids do not recover naturally by resting, as their systems attempt self-repairs. If self-repair is not adequately effective, a droid needs to be tended to with a Mechanics check, using the same difficulties and results as Medicine checks for organic beings. Emergency repair patches can be used to repair damage, just like stimpacks can be used on organic beings. See page 232 for more on droid repairs and healing. Due to their resilient metallic construction, droids start the game with one rank in the Enduring talent (Gain +1 soak value.)
Mechanical Being: Droids cannot become Force sensitive nor acquire a Force rating by any means. Droids cannot use Force powers and also cannot be affected by mind altering Force powers.
