Seftin Vanik was a human pilot from Messert who served as a lieutenant in the Resistance. Formerly a stunt flyer in an aerial circus that traveled the Messert system, Vanik was recruited into the Resistance by fellow pilot Poe Dameron, flying an RZ-2 A-wing interceptor in various dogfights for the movement. In 35 ABY, he was stationed on the Resistance base on the moon of Ajan Kloss, where he attended a briefing for a mission on the planet Exegol against Sith Eternal forces.
As a member of an air team, Vanik participated in the Battle of Exegol, protecting the ground team tasked with destroying a navigation tower that would allow the Sith Eternal's fleet to leave the planet. During the battle, Vanik was shot down and killed alongside several other Resistance pilots.
