The outlaw techs working for Doc and Jessa packed and enhanced as much illegal circuitry and computing power as they could into a tiny unassuming cube known as Blue Max. The little self-aware droid started its mechanical life as an Imperial MerenData B2-X computer probe, but ended up in the hands of a bounty hunter who unwittingly handed over the slicer's dream to Doc as payment. As an Imperial model, the B2-X had a brusque personality, but Doc's outlaw techs corrected that flaw and created Blue Max. The end result was a precocious, perky and chipper personality that, when coupled with a higher pitched vocodor, gave Blue Max the demeanor of a mischievous child. Since Blue Max has no means of locomotion, the outlaw techs fitted a special cradle hidden within the chest cavity of the labor droid Bollux. Together, Blue Max and Bollux became counterparts and friends, the well-traveled and older droid becoming a mentor to the eager rambunctious youth. Deep blue and built in the shape of a cube, the computer-droid processed data that it scanned through a glowing red photoreceptor and interpreted through a speech synthesizer. It was equipped with a set of computer probes for interfacing with a variety of networks. Its processors and software could slice through some of the most hardened CSA security systems. Blue Max was vital in Han Solo's mission to rescue prisoners from the CSA Star's End prison facility. Together their heroism earned Blue Max and Bollux their freedom from the outlaw techs. The two droids agreed to work for Han Solo for a time afterwards, in exchange for transport. Their current whereabouts are unknown.
