2. Chopper

C1-10P was an old, grumpy C1-series astromech droid who worked on board the Rebel ship called the Ghost. Known to the Spectres as Chopper, he was a surly tin can that often tormented members of the crew, specifically Ezra Bridger and Zeb. Even Chopper wasn't cantankerous enough to mess with Sabine.

Chopper was also a bonafide war hero, serving as a navigation droid in Y-wing bombers during the Clone Wars. He was shot down over Ryloth, which is how he met Hera Syndulla, the eventual leader of Phoenix Squadron and a general in the Rebellion. For all of his behavioral issues, Chopper was loyal to Hera and stayed by her side.

Despite the difficulties he caused members of the crew, he was the main reason the Ghost kept flying. Chopper was constantly working on the ship, patching every issue he could and complaining about it. While his ultimate fate after the fall of the Empire has not been discussed, Chopper fought for the Rebellion all the way through to the Battle of Endor.
