The R2-series Astromech Droid is a popular line of astromech droids designed to fit in the droid socket of any starfighter. It is commonly designed with a domed or tapered code head, with a cylindrical core in addition to a base, retractable tread leg and two main legs. It has multiple appendages and attachments within its compartments, such as shock prods, welding torches, and is equipped with a holoprojector and a periscope that has a probe function which is usable in space.
Welshman Tarentae has painstakingly cared for this R2-series Astromech Droid, and even upon close examination it appears as though R2-series Astromech Droid was freshly off the manufacturing line. Absent of any scratches, dents or even the slightest imperfections, the only thing missing is the new droid smell.
R2-series Astromech Droid has recieved redundant programming and a mechanical overhaul that reinforces known weaknesses from the original design that allow this R2-series Astromech Droid to continue operating and survive much longer against a wide range of attacks. This programming overhaul slightly slows processing times while the mechanical fitments can slightly reduce agility.
R2-series Astromech Droid has developed a personality around the concept of a caretaker. It has assumed the needs of Welshman Tarentae to be its prime directive, even such tasks that have not been requested of it. This results in R2-series Astromech Droid often flitting about in an attempt to meet any possible task before it is necessary, including menial tasks.
