Known as the Shinobi series, these mouse droids are
essentially highly sophisticated listening devices. Little more
than a quarter meter long, they are equipped with a number of
intrusion and surveillance devices that allow them to achieve
access to some of the most airtight security nets, obtain
information, and then either broadcast the information out, or
bring that information back to those that sent it. Of course, in
order to fit all of it's devices into the size desired, some
sacrifices had to be made. Shinobi mouse droids have rather
limited sentience, capable of following orders fairly well within
their usual mission parameters, but having no more real
intelligence than an ordinary house cat. Earlier models, the 1
series through the 4 series in particular, had even less mental
capacity, leading to some embarrassing mission abortions.
