Legion Defilers, also known as the Legion Elite, were highly elite soldiers in the armies of the powerful crime organisation known as the Steel Legion, led by the droid Unit 8311. They were similar to the Consortium Defilers of the Zann Consortium, but were generally considered more proficient in fighting. However, unlike their Consortium equalivent, Legion Defilers could not corrupt worlds. They also sometimes served as generals and commanders in the Legion ground forces.
