'''EV-9D9''' was a sadistic [[EV-series supervisor droid/Legends|EV-series supervisor droid]] who supervised the [[Droid/Legends|droids]] in [[Jabba Desilijic Tiure/Legends|Jabba]] the [[Hutt/Legends|Hutt's]] [[Jabba's Palace|palace]].

Although it is not known when she came to work there, EV-9D9 was a supervisor droid under the [[Baron Administrator/Legends|Baron Administrator]], [[Lando Calrissian/Legends|Lando Calrissian]], for [[Cloud City/Legends|Cloud City]]. The droid kept a low profile while working there so she could pursue her ambitions unnoticed. EV-9D9 was just one of the malfunctioning [[EV-series supervisor droid/Legends|EV-series supervisor droid]] abominations created by [[MerenData/Legends|MerenData]] and was one of the few droids who escaped capture when the EV-series was to be destroyed after owners of the droids found out their cruel nature. While at Cloud City EV-9D9 added to herself a third [[Photoreceptor/Legends|eye]] just next to her left eye, which could "see" the droid equivalent of pain, which manifested as jumbled, incoherent signals. She had a pain simulator and a sadomasochistic personality, which was caused by an accidentally installed [[MDF motivator]], taking great pleasure in the pain of droids.

Because of the role she played in Cloud City and the sadistic ideas she possessed, EV-9D9 was able to [[Torture/Legends|torture]] and destroy a quarter of the droids in Cloud City, including most of the [[12-4C-41 traffic control droid]]s stationed there. However, she was accidentally discovered and quickly exposed by her subordinate [[Sarl Random]] and forced to flee. She partially damaged the generators that held the city afloat and set a ship to automatic pilot as a distraction as she stole the ''[[Iopene Princess]]'', a large [[Mining Guild/Legends|Mining Guild]] ship. Despite the fact that security gave chase, she escaped.

After spending a short time working at the [[GoCorp repulsor plant]], EV-9D9 came to work for [[Jabba Desilijic Tiure/Legends|Jabba Desilijic Tiure]], and rose to the rank of droid supervisor quickly and ruthlessly, overseeing all Jabba's [[Cyborg Operations|droids]]. She kept a laboratory deep in the bowels of [[Jabba's Palace]], where she built grotesque droids from extra parts that existed only to feel pain. During her years spent there she added several upgrades to herself so that she could feel more of the droid equivalent of pleasure while watching the coolant from [[Dismemberment/Legends|dismembered]] droids pour out of them. She also employed her droid assistant [[8D8/Legends|8D8]] to burn and torture helpless victims such as a [[Dustbin Droid|GNK power droid]] and a [[Unidentified courier droid|courier droid]].

In [[1 ABY/Legends|1 ABY]],<ref name="SWG_timeline">{{SWG_timeline}}</ref> EV-9D9 recruited a spacer to help her to deal with Jabba's [[beast master]] [[Malakili/Legends|Malakili]]. After the spacer accomplished several tasks, Malakili accepted to give her back the [[Shock rod/Legends|shock rods]] she needed to maintain discipline among her droids.<ref name="SWG:SR">{{SWGcite|exp=SK|type=class|Legacy|Shock Rods|Tatooine}}</ref> EV-9D9 later sent the spacer to infiltrate the [[Valarian Depot]] to retrieve droid disciplinary devices stolen by the [[Valarian Syndicate]]. The spacer [[Slicer/Legends|sliced]] a [[CLL-8 binary load lifter|binary load lifter]] to load EV-9D9's cargo in a [[Shuttle/Legends|shuttle]], and then killed the shuttle's pilot, [[Rando M'Kabe]]. The spacer finally reprogrammed the shuttle for an automated flight to [[Wayfar]] where the cargo was retrieved by EV-9D9.<ref name="SWG:Remodeling">{{SWGcite|exp=SK|type=other}}Legacy Quest: "Remodeling" on Tatooine</ref> EV-9D9 eventually gave a last task to the spacer: find and destroy four droids who escaped Jabba's Palace. The spacer tracked down the [[R3-series astromech droid/Legends|R3-series astromech droid]] [[R3-B57]], the [[B1-Series battle droid]] [[BD-34]] and the [[RA-7 protocol droid/Legends|RA-7 protocol droid]] [[RA-316]] to the [[Darklighter cache]]. According to EV-9D9's punitive instructions, the spacer planted pain bolts to the droids before destroying them. Another droid, [[LIN-34]], was exfiltrated by [[Ay'Nat]] pirates but their [[AEG-77 Vigo|yacht]] was destroyed in the [[Tatoo system/Legends|Tatooine system]] by the spacer.<ref name="SWG:Runaways">{{SWGcite|exp=SK|type=other}}Legacy Quest: "Runaways" on Tatooine</ref> In recognition for his work, EV-9D9 gave the spacer the head of a [[R2-series astromech droid|R2 unit]] that was wanted by both [[Galactic Empire/Legends|Imperial]] [[Commander/Legends|Commander]] [[Arlan Barrezz|Barrezz]] and [[Alliance to Restore the Republic/Legends|Rebel]] [[Captain/Legends|Captain]] [[Carh'la Bastra|Bastra]].<ref name="SWG:PiT">{{SWGcite|exp=SK|type=class|Legacy|Putting it Together|Tatooine}}</ref>

EV-9D9 assigned jobs to [[C-3PO/Legends|C-3PO]] and [[R2-D2/Legends|R2-D2]] when they arrived at the Palace in [[4 ABY/Legends|4 ABY]]. However, she soon discovered that [[Lando Calrissian/Legends|Lando Calrissian]] had [[Siege of Jabba's Palace|infiltrated]] the palace and ensured that there would be good jobs for the droids by removing competitors. She reasoned that he had tracked her down and was using the droids to get revenge, but this was untrue; Lando's presence was a coincidence.

Around the time of Jabba's death, she was tracked down by [[12-4C-41]], a Traffic Control droid from Cloud City. Forwun removed EV-9D9's limbs and let loose her grotesque droid creations to destroy her, but not before removing her third eye and pain simulator so she couldn't even relish the pain of her own destruction.
