Not much information on this droid but I really liked it and the story from Star Wars: Republic 68: "Armor". I don't know much about the Rakata and that time period, so I was wondering, do the stats look like something they would build or how they would design it for its purpose?

Battle droids employed to guard the Rakatan temple on Honoghr. It is likely that these droids were of Rakatan design, left in the temple prior to the collapse of the Infinite Empire, and later used by the native Noghri.

That's some weird looking Droid right there. Interesting that the Noghri made use of them as I thought they were a primitive
society in the Thrawn books.

Can't really help with if it suits the Rakata style, but did you look up any other Rakata Droid stats for reference, I feel like I've
seen a few out there. The Old Republic fan book probably has some.

Independently though, the stats look fine for a fairly tough security type droid.

Makes me think of the Droidekas, but with a more sensible leg arrangement.
