Kurti, designated K-344, is a droid serving as guitarist for the rock band Star Waver. Originally abandoned, she found new purpose through music. Her primary demeanor remains calm and reserved, often letting her guitar speak for her. Though typically avoiding excessive speech, Kurti commands authority when intervention or leadership is required.

After the band's Hutt leader, Geezer Odajion, is captured by bounty hunter Boba Fett on Jabba the Hutt's orders, Kurti takes charge. She focuses efforts on repairing the band's damaged starship, The Rolling Gales, and directs the former Jedi Padawan Jay to apply his technical skills. This highlights her pragmatic focus during crises.

Kurti stands firm with Star Waver, performing in their high-stakes concert at Tatooine's Mos Espa Grand Arena. The performance targets Jabba the Hutt, aiming to secure Geezer's release. Her commitment to the band and its members throughout this ordeal underscores her role as a reliable, integral part of the group. Her journey reflects a transition from abandonment to finding identity and belonging within a musical collective dedicated to artistic expression and mutual support.
