The Banasthaurs were a species of winged sentients native to the Banasthau system, located in the Inner Rim. They were present in the galaxy by the time of the Galactic Civil War.

In the year 0 BBY, several Banasthaurs visited a cantina on the planet Toprawa. The cantina, known as Al The Alchemist's, was patronized by mercenaries, gun-runners, and bounty hunters from across the galaxy, the infamous Boba Fett among them. Also present in the cantina that day was Havet Storm, a young Human boy whose grandfather had been a Jedi Knight. The patrons discovered that Storm was carrying a lightsaber, so the Banasthaurs and other bar-goers clustered around the boy, staring at him with hostile intent. Fett, who bore a grudge against the boy from a previous encounter, ordered the assorted patrons of the cantina to kill Storm, but the boy escaped.
