Ramsey, a shortened form for designation RAM-53Y, was a BX-series commando droid in the service of the Separatist army during the Clone Wars. Unlike most of the droid army, Ramsey didn't catch the shutdown command sent from Mustafar after the death of the Separatist leadership council at the hands of Darth Vader. Ramsey was in a battle with Clone Troopers at the time and had caught an ion grenade at the fateful moment the shutdown command was sent, so he never received it.
Left where he fell, he was recovered by salvagers picking over the droid remains for parts to sell when they recovered his largely intact form. He was patched together - minimally - and re-equipped with the B1/BX droid standard E-5 blaster rifle before being sold off.
Missing at least a couple of years from memory and lacking full context on the changes in galactic governance, Ramsey finds himself in the company of people opposing "Emperor" Palpatine and the new Galactic Empire. He still slips into correcting people that it's "Chancellor" Palpatine in charge of the Galactic "Republic", but either way he's still on a mission to stop Palpatine, whatever new names he's chosen for himself. He won't fool this droid by trying to change a few names around!
