This article covers a subject from a Star Wars: Visions story that Lucasfilm declared is set in an alternate history within a reimagined galaxy.

"Nice. Neat trick. May I see that again?"
―Dhoona, showing interest in Rani's abilities[1]

Maghadi was an alien individual who was present on the desert planet of Golak[1] at some point between 18 BBY and 3 BBY.[2] At some point during those years, they ended up in a city where they watched two young refugees, siblings Charuk and Rani, disembark from a hovertrain.

Later that night, they were present outside the nearby Golak Mahal where they conversed with the human Dhoona, before confronting the young Rani after she demonstrated her Force-sensitivity. This encounter was cut short, however, with the arrival of an unidentified Inquisitor who inadvertently instigated a massive brawl between those dwelling outside of the motel. Dhoona and Maghadi began to tussle, before a surprise sandstorm swept through the area, knocking them all to the ground while the Inquisitor and a Jedi-in-hiding, Rugal, engaged in a duel to the death for the fate of Rani.[1]
