DC-GNK was a originally a GNK-series power droid, later heavily modified to serve as a translator by Jawa Empideera Kkek. DC-GNK was outfitted with a number of salvaged protocol droid parts, allowing him to help Kkek in trade negotiations. Although DC-GNK was grateful for his transformation into a more intelligent droid, he longed to have his own life, away from the Jawas.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
DC-GNK was first mentioned in the Secrets of Tatooine roleplaying game supplement.[1] The droid was not pictured until an entry in The Official Star Wars Fact File, which actually used images of a different GNK droid from the Droids (1995) 2 comic book to visually represent DC-GNK.[2]
