The Eradicator-class Droid, like the Crimson Empire’s Lancer Droid, is a continuation of the Cylon Imperium Destroyer model. The Cult of Shadow began development on the droid shortly after they acquired the design specifications for the Destroyer with the theft of the Byyor Command. Sivter, leader of the Cult of Shadow, saw room for improvement in the already formidable Destroyer and, with input from Inner Circle Dark Lord Arksis Nan, implemented those changes into what would become the Eradicator-class. Only a handful of the droids are thought to exist.
