"I am Captain Rylex, commander of this vessel. Some background info – I was a serviceman in the Republic Navy during the Clone Wars, captained my first vessel at eighteen and now I’ve been assigned on this fine ship."

- Rylex addresses the crew of the Nowhere Rylex Bin-Tarion was a Human male captain and former naval officer who served the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars and later the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Galactic Civil War. He was the captain of the infamous Nowhere and played a defining role in its subsequent disaster.

Born in an impoverished district on Coruscant, Rylex's early life was marred with difficulties. Living in a predominantly criminal neighborhood, he saw his parents shot at the age of eleven, forever traumatizing him. He eventually served the Republic Navy along with his best friend Briggs. After Order 66, Rylex left Coruscant and joined the fledgling Alliance to Restore the Republic.

He played a pivotal role during the Nowhere Incident. Attributed to his earlier trauma at witnessing his parents' death and history of suffering from isolation-induced paranoia, Rylex orchestrated the mass killings of his own crewmembers in a frenzied craze, but was eventually killed by Anders.
