- "My message is for you, from the Emperor himself."
- ―A messenger, to Captain Lerr Duvat
Messengers were a droid model used by the Galactic Empire after the death of Galactic Emperor Sheev Palpatine during the Battle of Endor.[2] The droids were manufactured in the Imperial base on the planet Vetine,[1] and were capable of playing pre-recorded messages from their head.[2]
In the days following the Emperor's death at the Battle of Endor, a messenger traveled aboard a Lambda-class T-4a shuttle to the Star Destroyer Torment, captained by Lerr Duvat, in the Outer Rim. The messenger met Duvat aboard the ship's bridge, after Duvat had dismissed his officers. Upon verifying Duvat's identity with blood, the messenger delivered a posthumous message from Emperor Palpatine, stating that Operation: Cinder was to begin immediately. The messenger then presented Duvat with his target: the Mid Rim world of Naboo.[2]
