Bindal Sep, a Rodian Jedi Padawan affiliated with the Jedi Order, lived during the High Republic Era and was part of the Star Hopper team. It was believed that Sep had died alongside numerous others in 230 BBY, during the Nihil's destruction of the space station known as Starlight Beacon. After a year had passed, the Galactic Republic officially closed Sep's file, considering the Padawan to have been deceased for more than a year. The truth, however, was that Sep was still living, but had been held as a prisoner for the previous year on the Korvix Vorn, a prison ship utilized by the Nihil, together with Jedi Master Torban Buck, Jedi Knight Farzala Tarabal, and Kajain'sa'Nikto Ishnar Ti-Kharatal.
