In 89 BBY, Leor Hal created the position of Magister. This role was designed to be the leader for the Ferroan and Langhesi colonists residing on Zonama Sekot. Hal himself occupied the position of Magister from its inception until his passing, at which point his son succeeded him. Following the death of the Magister during the First Battle of Zonama Sekot, a holographic representation of him, generated by Zonama Sekot, served as Magister. Sometime between 29 BBY and 28 ABY, Jabitha, Leor Hal's granddaughter, assumed the role of Magister.
Even after Zonama Sekot became the homeworld for the Yuuzhan Vong, the title remained in use. Danni Quee, along with Jedi Knights Tahiri Veila and Tekli, were considered as potential successors to Jabitha upon her death. Despite the high level of authority associated with the Magister, this individual possessed no authority over the planet itself.
Hego Damask, the leader of the financial lobbying organization Damask Holdings, also held the title of Magister. This title generally signified "someone of accomplishment, of dignity and bearing ... [an] impressive ... personality."
Star Wars: The Dark Nest Trilogy sees both Tahiri Veila and Tekli return to the New Jedi Order. Meanwhile, Danni Quee left the Jedi Order, choosing to continue her research on Zonama Sekot.
