It was searching for a live Jedi or Sith to aid him in preserving the Republic.

Many bounty hunters, who misinterpreted the bounty, simply killed Jedi and Sith instead of capturing them, failing to realize that they were worth nothing to G0-T0 dead. Believing also that the major source of the Republic's problems revolved around the Jedi/ Sith conflict, it also enacted bounties for live Jedi and Sith. Its smuggling ring caused the deaths of destabilizing persons or organizations, developed unofficial profits for entire sectors, and strengthened Republic worlds that would otherwise have been poor and ignored. G0-T0's actions, while illegal, did aid the Republic in rebuilding itself. Taken together, the illusion was so effective that few, if any, knew of Goto's true existence, although Meetra Surik guessed it. G0-T0 set up the hologram by reusing a number of holovid gangster clichés. Since few would believe a droid could run an elaborate smuggling operation, G0-T0 used a hologram emitter to create the identity of 'Goto.' Instead of being the smuggling operator itself, G0-T0 would simply be Goto's liaison. At that moment, the droid 'broke.' Choosing to follow only the first directive, the droid began to enact plans to save the Republic, regardless of their legality.Įventually building a jet-black orb of a body, G0-T0 began to set up as a smuggling ring on the moon Nar Shaddaa. Every practical option that would help rebuild the Republic would require breaking a law of the Republic.

Working for quite a long time to accomplish its duties on Telos, the droid found itself unable to follow both of its prime directives.

Produce options to rebuild the Republic.

To accomplish this task, it had two directives: Known to few, however, was that the droid also had a secondary duty: to aid in the reconstruction of the Republic, which was wounded from the aftermath of the Jedi Civil War. To oversee and aid in the planetary reconstruction of the planet Telos IV, the Galactic Republic spent a great deal of credits to design a technical droid to handle the immense data that was produced daily: climate changes, shield management reports, etc. I prefer predictable games, such as galactic economics.' ―G0-T0 to Meetra Surik
