The Mark X Executioner was a gladiator droid built by Arakyd Industries. The tall droid moved on two caterpillar tracks—a dual-tread drive system—and was outfitted with a variety of weapons.

Characteristics

Galactic customers for whom the droid was in demand included bored dictators and their subjects. The droids were not, of course, invincible and could be destroyed by well-aimed energy bolts.[source?]

History

Viceprex Mirkovig Hirken of Stars' End owned a Mark-X, and often pitted it against other droids in combat at his prison.

While traveling with Han Solo, the droid Bollux was one of the Mark-X's opponents. Bollux defeated the Mark-X by outsmarting it, with help from fellow droid Blue Max.
