The BD-unit Backpack Droid is a small bipedal droid designed to assist with research and exploration in remote and dangerous locations. It has a flat rectangular head with two photoreceptors, a small body, and two legs with clampable feet, allowing it to climb a person's body or other surfaces and traverse many different kinds of terrain . It is equipped with various tools; including a holocam and holoprojector, computer link, and a spotlight.
BD-313 (Ellie) has had every external component painted black as night, with attempts to minimize the brightness of external lights and features. This allows this BD-unit Backpack Droid to more easily blend into the shadows and darkness unseen.
BD-313 (Ellie) has been fitted with a built-in comlink that has been encrypted, allowing it to access and communicate securely and safely over various communications networks without additional gear..
An experimental automated repair system has been installed on this BD-unit Backpack Droid, giving it an ability to perform or assist in the performance of self-diagnosis and self-repair of its mechanical systems. This system slows the droid while it assesses any necessary repairs when dealing with heavy damage, and can perform very basic tasks or actions while assessing necessary repairs.
BD-313 (Ellie) has developed a personality around the concept of a caretaker. It has assumed the needs of Zosi'val'ria to be its prime directive, even such tasks that have not been requested of it. This results in BD-313 (Ellie) often flitting about in an attempt to meet any possible task before it is necessary, including menial tasks.
