7-A39, also known as SevenAy, was a protocol droid with a masculine persona who served the Jedi Order at the Almas Academy, a Jedi academy that was located on the planet Almas. Following the destruction of the academy in 19 BBY, 7-A39 suffered some damage, and his legs were destroyed. Circa 17 BBY, he was rediscovered by a group of Ugor scavengers, and the Ugors became engaged in a dispute with a crew of rival Squib salvagers regarding ownership of the droid. The quarrel was resolved when a team of Alderaanian Resistance agents purchased 7-A39 from both parties, and the agents subsequently used the protocol droid as a guide while they explored the academy's ruins.
