History
A force of Kuiper Droids were tasked by Terra with escorting Ra Moon to safety when the Star Marshals arrived seeking to destroy it. While the Stardroids engaged most of the Marshals, one by the name of Quartet located the fleeing Ra Moon and its bodyguard and attacked. He succeeded in destroying every Kuiper Droid but the future Shadow Man, only to be betrayed by one of his own comrades: Trio.

While he was later restored to activity by Ra Moon and redesigned by Dr. Wily, it is unknown if any other Kuiper Droids still exist.
