The Brightbird, a minicruiser, served as the starship for pilot Sky Graf. Constructed off-world and completed on Thelj in 384 BBY, the Brightbird transitioned from a personal cruiser to a warship utilized by the Nihil marauders. Subsequently, Cair San Tekka of the San Tekka family acquired it, undertaking its refurbishment. Furthermore, San Tekka registered the ship with the Nihil under the alias Blood Vulture, operating as a smuggler.
