Zenn’s Mechs & Mods
Zenn’s Mechs & Mods is a cluttered, dimly lit workshop crammed with half-assembled droid parts, mismatched chassis, salvaged components, and blinking shelves of restraining bolts, memory cores, and behavioral chips. The air smells faintly of ozone and old lubricants.
Inside, the shop is stacked floor to ceiling with:
Repaired astromechs, protocol droids, and labor units
Mod kits (weapon arms, sensor upgrades, language packs)
Black-market components (combat subroutines, illegal slicer nodes, memory wipes)
Droid companion rentals for mercs or explorers
Despite its chaotic look, Zenn knows exactly where every part is and takes pride in pairing buyers with the “perfect unit.”
