Nower Jebel was a human male senator who represented the agricultural planet of Uyter[1] in the Imperial Senate in the year 0 BBY.[2] Jebel was secretly the Minister of Finance of the Alliance to Restore the Republic,[1] and was present on Yavin 4 in the Great Temple during the events leading up to the Battle of Scarif.[2] During the High Command meeting,[4] he was one of the Alliance Cabinet members[1] who mistrusted the former criminal Jyn Erso, disbelieved the existence of the Empire's planet killer superweapon—the Death Star—before adding that the rebellion was finished.[2]
In the year 5 ABY, about a year after the Alliance reorganized into the New Republic, Jebel had become a member of the new Galactic Senate and maintained his position as Minister of Finance.[3]
