View IG-11 on the Timeline ›

Before or during the Galactic Civil War - Built by Holowan Mechanicals

IG-11 is built as an IG-series assassin droid in a Holowan Mechanicals factory, with a self-destruct mechanism to protect the design from capture.

Before 9 ABY - Joins the Bounty Hunters' Guild

He becomes a Guild bounty hunter and assassin, programmed to follow Guild protocols.

9 ABY - Hunt for the Asset on Arvala-7

IG-11 takes a contract to terminate a Force-sensitive infant, attacks a Nikto encampment and reluctantly teams up with Din Djarin to take the compound.

9 ABY - Shot Down by Din Djarin

When IG-11 raises his blaster to kill Grogu, Djarin shoots him in the head and takes the child.

9 ABY - Rebuilt by Kuiil

Kuiil salvages the droid and slowly retrains him. With his memory wiped, IG-11 learns to tend blurrgs, cook and serve tea, and takes on a caring new personality.

9 ABY - Journey to Nevarro

Djarin reluctantly lets IG-11 come along on the Razor Crest for the mission to Nevarro. The droid stays aboard the ship to guard it.

9 ABY - Rescue of Grogu

After Kuiil is killed, IG-11 overpowers the scout troopers who took Grogu, steals a speeder bike and fights his way through Nevarro City to the besieged cantina.

9 ABY - Saving the Mandalorian

He cuts an escape route into the sewers, refuses Djarin's request for a warrior's death, and treats his head wound with bacta. As a droid, he can remove Djarin's helmet without breaking his creed.

9 ABY - Sacrifice at the Lava River

Facing a stormtrooper ambush at the end of the lava river, IG-11 says goodbye to Grogu, wades through the lava and self-destructs, wiping out the platoon.

9 ABY - Memorial Statue

The people of Nevarro City build a statue in the market square to honor him, partly from his recovered parts.

9 ABY - Failed Revival

Djarin takes the remains from the statue and powers them up, but IG-11 reverts to his assassin programming and goes after Grogu. CU-28 destroys him again with a bust of Greef Karga.

9 ABY - Anzellan Workshop

The Anzellan droidsmiths cannot restore him without a new IG memory circuit, and none can be found. Djarin takes R5-D4 instead.

9 ABY - Repurposed as IG-12

The Anzellans strip the body to its basic motor functions and turn it into IG-12, a mech Grogu pilots. IG-12 is destroyed during the battle to reclaim Mandalore.

9 ABY - Marshal of Nevarro

Using an IG head that Djarin gets from Carson Teva in return for working with the New Republic, IG-11 is rebuilt from the IG-12 remains and introduced to cheering crowds as Nevarro's new marshal.
