Army Weapons Research Department
The Army Weapons Research Department were the research branch of the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars. Some members of this branch set up a base on the rogue planetoid Tembora, known as Tembora Research Station. It is here that they tried to develop the KLR-series combat droid. Unfortunately, the software programming in the droids was unstable, allowing them to overwrite their failsafes. KLR-B1 injured two technicians and killed a third before they decided to shut down the droids and start the programming from scratch. Somehow KLR-B1 was not shut down, and instead went on a psychopathic rampage, killing all members of the research station and any crewmembers of ships which crashed on the planetoid.
