Mechis III is a droid foundry world. In Shadows of the Empire lore, IG-88A took the plant and thought about taking more than the plant. Assassin droids have a home address even when they pretend not to.

Searches for IG-88's origin mix Holowan with this factory rock. The archive keeps both: Holowan designed him; Mechis is where droid labor becomes a planet.

First appearance: Shadows of the Empire / droid lore; IG-88 on-screen in Empire Strikes Back
