The IG-100 MagnaGuard or commonly known as MagnaGuard is a Confederacy of Independent Systems Battle droid used for personal bodyguards during the Clone Wars era. These droids were deadly, and known to kill Jedi, making them feared combatants. These deadly droids make a return for the New Confederacy of Independent Systems during The Last of the Droids era, helping Trench fight the Galactic Empire.
Characteristics
Constructed by Holowan Mechanicals, the IG-100 MagnaGuards are roughly two meters tall, with a humanoid shape that possesses a very detailed mechanical anatomy which allows them to perform superhuman feats. They originally wore Kaleesh cloaks and headwraps under heroic General Grievous' command, but under Admiral Trench's command, they don't. Their plating color is mostly grey, though there are other variants in black, alabaster and blue, and they also have two red photoreceptor eyes, which is also complemented by a backup system mounted on their chests. They can speak Basic, Human and droid language, and are programmed to taunt their opponents with the former.
Their internal systems have advanced combat learning systems, allowing them to take on many different fighting skills and various tasks, which ranged from melee and ranged combat to starfighter control. Designed specifically to fight and kill Jedi, their weapon of choice is the lightsaber-resistant electrostaff, which is also used to disarm and electrocute any Stormtroopers in their path. They cannot be destroyed easily, as they can fight even if they are decapitated or bisected, and their duranium armor makes them very hard to destroy. The only way to destroy them is if one stabs them in the chest, a feat easier said than done.
