NK-47 is the first model of an assassin droid, endowed with sophisticated intelligence. NK-47 was created during the Mandalorian Wars, 4000 years before the Battle of Yavin. NK-47 was created as a means of killing humans, aliens, and, most terrifyingly, Jedi. Its creator was the Sith, who programmed NK-47's computer brain with information on how to carry out various assassinations using all available weapons. It is difficult to say how many Jedi fell victim to NK-47's shots. After the Mandalorian Wars, the blueprints for the NK models circulated, and a new model of assassin droid, NK-50, was subsequently created, distinguished from the original by its green color. The new model gained widespread distribution and an improved operating system, allowing it to disguise itself as an unusual type of simple protocol droid. A few years after the Mandalorian Wars, NK-50s began to be mass-produced in secret factories on various planets. It is unknown who is behind the programming of the new version of NK, but the very interests of these droids in working as hired assassins are appalling.
