KL-03

KL-03, or K-L, was an admin unit^[1] and protocol droid owned by the former Jedi Ty Yorrick, who worked as a saber-for-hire during the High Republic Era.^[2] KL-03 preferred to be called "Klo."^[3] Like her other possessions, such as her astromech droid R0-VR and starship, Yorrick did not see a point in naming the admin unit, seeing the droid as a tool that she did not need to become attached to. Klo was sarcastic^[1] and frequently chided Yorrick for being more machine than she was.^[2]
