As honed and lethal in application as his own Sith training, Maulīs array of stealth and detection equipment, his predatory starship and myriad of deadly weapons make him the perfect hunter. On board Maulīs cloak-capable Sith Infiltrator, the Scimitar, state of the art tracking systems allow the invisible warrior to hunt down his quarry, no matter where they run. Even on the ground, the Scimitarīs cadre of stowed Dark Eye probe droids permit Darth Maul to search in multiple locations at once, while he waits in preparation for a single, surgical strike.Deployed in a trio, the compact, black probes scour the streets of Mos Espa and the surrounding landscape for Nabooīs queen, their observations and findings reported back to their master in regular updates. Blistering with the most advanced detection equipment, including multispectral imaging lenses and the keenest scanners, little escapes the probesī notice, and they are tireless in their search.Though not equipped with weaponry of any sort, each hovering droid is encased in a scan-absorbing shell of armor designed to foil casual scanning, but even the most advanced countermeasures cannot mask the cold stench of evil that hangs like a smell around these tools of death. Attuned to the ways of the Force, Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn detects the cold touch of the Dark Side at his back as he walks down the streets of Mos Espa and decisively strikes down his shadowy follower. The droidīs armor offers no resistance to the lightsaberīs heat and the hunterīs threat is revealed to the Jedi instantly.
