Yri Worm
this species of blind annelid was native to the moon of Tilnes. Despite the moon's lifeless appearance, the yri managed to survive. These worms lived below the surface, riddling the crust of Tilnes with their tunnels. Worms moved through the rock by pulling themselves along with their scales. The mining operations which were established on Tilnes tried to exterminate the yri worms, because the worm tunnels made the mining passages susceptible to cave-ins. However, the meter-long yri proved to be somewhat intelligent, and began to actually fight back against the miners. Hiem Bryl went so far as to offer a fifty-credit bounty for each yri worm killed, but had to abandon the program after more than a thousand worms were brought in but the problem continued to escalate. (WOTC)

Yrros, Naem
this Imperial General was in charge of the subjugation of the city of Argona, on Rhamalai, during the height of the New Order. Yrros was educated at the Imperial Academy on Raithal, and took top honors in his class. His unswerving loyalty and dedication to the New Order earned him several swift promotions, but few friends. He was killed when the astromech droid R2-4B was confiscated and placed into the Imperial droid pool. R2-4B had been programmed to self-destruct if it was ever captured by the Empire, and the droid performed its duty flawlessly. (SWJ13)

Ysalamir
this was the name given to one of the slender, grey-furred creatures, native to the planet Myrkr, that naturally created null-bubbles in the Force. The bubble created by an individual ysalamir could extend up to 10 meters in diameter, and a group of ysalaimir could generate a much larger bubble. Early in their lifecycle, ysalamiri would use their long claws to attach their bodies to tree limbs and obtain nourishment from the wood. As a sessile creature, the ysalamir soon died after being separated from their perch. Ysalamiri could reach lengths up to 50 centimeters, and have fur-covered scales. (HTTE)

Ysalamiri
this was the name given to a group of ysalamir. (HTTE)

Ysanna
this tribe of Force-sensitives lived on modern-day Ossus. The Ysanna were the descendants of those few Jedi who managed to survive the cataclysmic events of the Great Sith War, and were able to harness some amount of the Force for their own use. The warrior-priests of the Ysanna used The Force to guide their out-dated projectile weapons, helping them obtain food and defend themselves. Their history showed that many of their ancient ancestors arrived on Ossus just following the Great Sith War, and survived the devastation wrought on the planet during the Clone Wars. The Ysanna had a bond with the tree-like, ancient Jedi Master Ood Bnar, who also survived the planet's many trials and was still alive when Luke and Kam discovered the Ysanna youths Jem and Rayf. Most Ysanna considered themselves part of a single tribe, and often added the surname "Ysanna" when referring to themselves. (DE2, GORW)

Ysanna, Jem
this Ysanna girl was the daughter of Okko. Jem was met by Luke Skywalker and Kam Solusar when they arrived on Ossus, during the early years of the New Republic. Jem was in the midst of a ritual with her brother, Rayf, in which they were tied to the tree-like form of the ancient Jedi Master Ood Bnar. She was 23 years old when Luke first met her. Like all other Ysanna, Jem was strong with the Force, and chose to leave Ossus and become one of Luke's first students. She also became one of Luke's brief loves, until they were attacked on New Alderaan by Tedryn-sha and Krdys Mordi. Jem killed Mordi with her lightsaber in an effort to protect Luke, but was herself killed by Tedryn-sha. Luke was surprised to see her body dissapear as her spirit became one wit the Force. (DE2, SWDB)

Ysanna, Rayf
a Ysanna, and Jem's fifteen-year-old brother. He is also tied to Ood Bnar's tree-like form when Luke Skywalker and Kam Solusar arrive on Ossus. He leaves with Jem to follow Luke and Kam, and become a Jedi Knight. He survives his sister and fights with Luke in many battles. When the Jedi tried to intercept the reborn Emperor Palpatine on Onderon, Rayf wounded the Dark Jedi T'iaz before he was consumed in the Emperor's own Force Lightning and killed. (DE2, EE)

Ysannan
this was the language spoken by the Ysanna who lived on Ossus during the modern era of the galaxy. (EGP)

YT-1000
this was an outdated Corellian Engineering Corporation starship design, although it was one of the first to have the distinctive clamshell-shapde hull of the YT-series. (LAA)

YT-1150
one of the earliest of the YT-series starships from Corellian Engineering Corporation, the YT-1150 resembled a long, oval loaf of bread which had been cut into three pieces lengthwise and layed out. (RP)

YT-1200
this freighter was designed by the Corellian Engineering Corporation, but was eventually phased out in favor of the YT-1300. The designs for the YT-1200 were later sold to Nova-Drive, which modified them and produced the #3-Z light freighter. Many of these ships found used as suborbital transport craft, used for carrying cargo from one city to another. (SS, TCD)

YT-1210
this Corellian Engineering Corporation light freighter was a predecessor to the YT-1300. The YT-1210 has the familiar saucer-shaped hull, but lacked the forward mandibles of the YT-1300. This craft measured some 35 meters in length, and the cockpit could be situated on either the left or right side. The basic crew consisted of a pilot and a gunner. The standard YT-1210 could carry up to 100 metric tons of cargo, and was armed with a single laser cannon. (GG6, FOP)

YT-1250
this Corellian Engineering Corporation starship design was lightly armed in its stock form. (SFT)

YT-1300
this series of Corellian light stock freighter built by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. Originally designed and manufactured some 30 years before the Battle of Yavin, it was a 2-man craft, and can accommodate up to six passengers. The YT-1300 measures 26.7 meters in length, and can hold 100 metric tons of cargo. The YT-1300 is armed with a single laser cannon, but carries to defensive shielding. The main hull is disk-shaped, with two trapezoidal pods extending from the front. The cockpit is offset-mounted on the right side of the disk. The top sublight speed of a YT-1300 is around 65 MGLT. 100-SBD shields protect a 50-RU hull. One of the primary drawbacks of this model transport is the off-center cockpit placement. While the cockpit can be positioned on either the left or right side, this positioning leaves a great deal of the ship out of the pilot's view. While this is common for larger ships, the off-center placement makes it much harder to maneuver in tight spaces for many new pilots. The more skittish of these captains often install five-axis, laser-ranging pods near the front mandibles, in order to provide them realtime information about the parts of the ship they can't see. (SW, SCRE, TIE, TT, E1A2)

YT-1300f
this was a modification to the basic YT-1300 freighter produced by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. It was given a slightly better hyperdrive, allowing the freighter to reach its destination faster than the standard model. The YT-1300f was also equipped with standard docking rings. Because of this upgrade, the YT-1300f found a niche among transport operations shipping medical supplies to the battlefronts of the Clone Wars. It was believed that the Millennium Falcon was originally manufactured as a YT-1300f. (MBS, DM103)

YT-1300p
this was a modification to the basic YT-1300 freighter produced by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. Similar to the YT-1300f, the YT-1300p had improved drives. It was also equipped with two additional escape pods, instead of the docking rings found on the YT-1300f. (DM103)

YT-1500
this was one of the many variants developed by the Corellian Engineering Corporation from the basic YT-series of light freighters. (SBS)

YT-1760
this was one of the many varieties of YT-series freighters and transports produced by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. Measuring 20 meters in length, the YT-1760 incorporated the saucer-shaped hull of the YT-1300 with a center-mounted cockpit. Three sublight engines were arranged along the rear of the round hull. However, the YT-1760 lacked the durability of the earlier members of the YT-series, and it didn't take well to upgrades and modifications. It was produced without standard armament, and could transport up to eight passengers and 10 metric tons of cargo. (GMR2)

YT-1930
this variant on the successful YT-1300 series was only moderately successful for the Corellian Engineering Corporation. From the central passageway forward, the YT-1930 was an exact duplicate of the YT-1300, with the exception being that the rounded cockpit was mounted between the forward mandibles. However, from the centerline back, the ship was unique. A pair of wing-like cargo bays flared outward from each side, while the drives were situated between them. The ship resembled a flying V. It measured 35 meters in length, and required a pilot and co-pilot to operate. It could transport up to six passengers and 200 metric tons of cargo with ease. It could be armed with a single, turret-mounted laser cannon. (WSV, WOTC)

YT-2000
this Corellian Engineering Corporation light freighter was based on the venerable YT-1300 line. It measured 29 meters in length, and was armed with a pair of twin turbolasers, a laser cannon, and an ion cannon. Its cockpit was mounted in the center of the ship. (XWA)

YT-2400
one of the light freighters in CEC's successful YT-series, the YT-2400 incorporates the saucer-shaped hull design that made the YT-1300 popular. However, the YT-2400 does not have the paired, forward-facing mandibles. It is simply the saucer hull with a heavily-braced cockpit section off to the right side. The YT-2400 has improved hull plating, power to spare, and additional space in the cargo and engine compartments. Thus, it was easily modified to accommodate larger engines and smuggling compartments. At 21 meters in length, the YT-2400 was also slightly smaller than its predecessors, although it had the capacity to transport up to six passengers and 150 metric tons of cargo. Flying the YT-2400 demanded the skills of a pilot and co-pilot. The basic configuration was simply armed with a turret-mounted laser cannon. (SE, EGV, SS)

YT-450a
a clunky-looking transport ship from Corellian Engineering Corporation. (GMH)

YT-700
this older Corellian Engineering Corporation starship design was a basic transport craft. It measured 21.7 meters in length. (SWJ5)

Ytavarg Aleema
this near-human was the child of human and Keed parents. He was known among the Keed as a great lettranin player, and was recruited to play shockball by Ger Plortor. Ytavarg emerged as one of the galaxy's most famous shockball players, during the height of the New Order. A member of the Shad Furies, Aleema earned a great deal of credit from a lucrative contract. After a match against the Quent Assassins, which the Assassins won 21-20, Ytavarg tried to rescue Ap Kormar from being beaten by some Furies fans. They killed Kormar before Aleema could intervene, claiming that they were making an example of Kormar to warn other Alliance sympathizers against taking action. In anger, Aleema used his shockball equipment to kill all seven of the attackers, an action which earned him a short suspension from league play. However, Aleema was determined to extinguish the xenophobia embraced by the Empire, and found himself trying to join the Alliance. After making contact with an Alliance agent, Aleema offered whatever services he could, either physical or financial. He had established a mansion on the planet of Melinz, which he secretly used as a safehouse for Alliance agents. Aleema himself was a foster agent, and secretly funneled a large portion of his income to the Alliance. He maintained a very public presence, providing endorsements and merchandising rights in order to earn more credits, which he later funneled to the Alliance. (CRO)

YU-1300
according to Destiny's Way, this was the model number of the Millennium Falcon. This is most likely a typesetting error. (DW)

YU-410
this Corellian Engineering Corporation transport was part of the YU series, which was introduced after the YT-1300 became so popular. Unfortunately, the YU series lacked the YT's modularity and ease of upgrading, and didn't sell well. The YU-410 was no exception, and also suffered from underpowered drives. However, it was twice the size of the YT-1300 and was heavily armored, and it found favor among small businesses which made regular runs through dangerous star systems. It was also heavily armed in its standard configuration, with four double laser cannons. The YU-410 measured 44 meters in length, and required a crew of four officers and four gunners. It could transport up to 250 metric tons of cargo and twelve passengers. (GMR2)

Yubicon
this Romin served as the chief of staff for dictator Roy Teda,as well as a General in the Security Management Control agency, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. When the Citizens' Resistance launched their revolution and overthrew Teda, he fled his palace under the protection of General Yubicon and Jenna Zan Arbor. However, as Teda was forced to submit to the will and demands of Zan Arbor, Yubicon began to question his loyalty to Teda, who obviously wasn't the Great Leader he claimed to be. When Jedi reinforcements arrived on Romin, Yubicon and his commanders surrendered immediately. (JQ8)

In order to fight without impediment, Yubookoo trimmed his black fur to a short stubble. He fought with wild abandon, knowing that he would eventually die in the ring, and was known to have defeated sixteen Geonosian warriors. Yubookoo preferred to fight with the petranaki scimitar. (GORW)

Yugami
the natives of this planet had been in conflict with the Pursian people for many generations before the onset of the Galactic Civil War. The planet Yugami was very nearly subjugated by the Pursians, with the full support of the local Imperial Governor, during the months leading up to the Battle of Endor. (MC77)

Yuka Laka
this Ithorian maintained a droid repair shop in Anchorhead, on the planet Tatooine, some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. It was in Yuka Laka's shop that HK-47 was discovered, after having its memory partially wiped and being abandoned by Darth Revan. (SWDB, KOTOR)

Yuka Minor

this was the Mandalorian word for 'food'. (KOTOR)

Yumfla
this was the primary starport operated on the moon Suarbi 7/5. It was also the site of the Imperial governor's palace, a fortress-like affair surrounded by eight-meter-tall walls and guarded by stormtroopers. The palace itself was triangular in shape, with tall towers are each corner. The front two towers were thick squat cyclinders, while the rearward toward was a tall rectangle with the central section small in area that those above and below it. It appeared as if a fist had squeezed this section. (IJ)

Yumi
this heavy-bodied plant's origins are not known, but it thrives on many worlds throughout the galaxy. The sap taken from its bulbous stem is useful in the creation of bubble wort, and is also used as a sweet dessert topping. A single flower grows from its round body. (GF, IG1)

Yun
the youngest of the Dark Jedi serving under Jerec, Yun was a cocky, unpredictable Epicanthrix youth striving to prove his power. Much of his original training was under the guidance of Sariss, who could not fully rein in the impulsive youth. Not physically imposing, Yun relied on the surprise he gained when attacking his opponents in brash ways. As a youth, Yun grew up on the planet Panatha, the son of wealthy mineral baron. When he came of age, Yun was sent to Bunduki by his father, to learn the patience and temperment of the Followers of Palawa. His instructors refused to teach of the teras kasi, and Yun returned to Panatha to complain to his father. The baron decided that Yun would be better schooled at home, and turned the boy's training over to his fiance', a member of the Church of the Dark Side named Sariss. The pair became very close, but Sariss refused to be drawn into an affair because of her vows to Yun's father. Angry at being rebuffed, Yun killed his father to earn her love. With this act, his fall to the Dark Side of the Force was completed, but Yun came to understand that Sariss didn't actually love him. She proceeded to seize his father's assets and turned them over to Jerec. She turned Yun's training over to Jerec as well. Jerec demanded proof of Yun's loyalty, and sent the boy back to Bunduki to execute his Palawa masters. Later, during the search for the Valley of the Jedi, Yun attempted to kill Kyle Katarn at Baron's Hed, but was defeated by Katarn. After the Valley of the Jedi was discovered on Ruusan, Katarn again spared Yun's life. Yun was then visited by the spirit of Jedi Master Qu Rahn, who urged Yun to seek redemption. Acting on this, Yun stepped in to prevent Sariss from killing Katarn. Unfortunately, Sariss showed no such mercy and killed Yun. His body was absorbed by the energy of the Valley and disappeared. (DF2, RAG, NEGC, WOTC)

Yun-Harla
this Yuuzhan Vong deity was known as the Cloaked Goddess, or the Trickster. She was often prayed to in tandem with Yun-Yammka, in order for the warrior to have guidance as well as strength in his battle. Yun-Harla was never visible to her servants, and was never actually portrayed in Yuuzhan Vong writings or pictures. It was believed that her body was formed from borrowed parts, and was covered with borrowed skin. Some Yuuzhan Vong even believed that Yun-Harla's eyes were villips, while others believed them to be the actual eyes of Yun-Yuuzhan, which were discarded when the Creator ascended to a higher plane of existence. Her clothing, whenever she wore it, was designed to confuse and deceive those who saw her. Thus, only her spirit actually made contact with those Yuuzhan Vong who worshipped her. Shortly after the Second Battle of Coruscant, Jaina Solo stole the frigate Ksstarr and renamed it the Trickster, as a goad to the Yuuzhan Vong priest Harrar. However, this monicker eventually became something more, as Jaina discovered how to fool Yuuzhan Vong sensors into believing that another ship was actually the Trickster. Among the subordinate Yuuzhan Vong who served Harrar, there was a growing belief that Jaina Solo was actually Yun-Harla made incarnate. This belief was based on the relationship between Yun-Harla and Yun-Yammka, which greatly resembled the relationship between Jaina and her twin brother, Jacen. At the end of the war, the Shamed One Onimi revealed to Jaina that he had come to believe she was actually Yun-Harla, since he alone of the Yuuzhan Vong could see her through the Force. (VP, DJ, DW, NJOSB, UF)

Yunkor IX
this planet was the site of an early test of the B-Wing, in which a single B-Wing took out a TIE Fighter staging area near the world. (XW)

Yun-Ne'Shel
this hermaphroditic Yuuzhan Vong deity was worshipped by the Shapers, and represented life itself. Yun-Ne'Shel was believed to have created all forms of life with the tools and materials presented to her by Yun-Yuuzhan. She was considered among the rest of the Yuuzhan Vong gods as something of an iedalistic fool, having preached about a peaceful galaxy where all life existed equally. Her dreams of an ideal galaxy were shattered by Yun-Harla and Yun-Yammka, the twin gods who shaped the Yuuzhan Vong civilization the most. Shapers worshipped Yun-Ne'Shel, who was known as She-Who-Shapes or The Modeler, in an organic grotto which was similar in form to a yammosk, and was created to enhance the mental abilities of any who entered it. Within the body of the grotto were nodules of flesh which were essentially mouths, filled with eight knife-like teeth, Each Shaper Adept was required to enter the chamber and meditate before placing a hand into the nodule's mouth. The teeth then closed over the wrist and bit through flesh and bone. Once the teeth clamped down, the nodule flexed and twisted ninety degrees, neatly severing the hand. The Adept was then fitted with a new hand, which was grown to provide the Shaper with the tools they used in their work. At the end of the war, the Shamed One Onimi revealed to Jaina Solo that he had come to believe that Tahiri Veila was actually Yun-Ne'Shel, since he alone of the Yuuzhan Vong could see her through the Force. (EVC, FH2, UF)

Yun'o
this was a term used by the Yuuzhan Vong to collectively describe their pantheon of gods. (DW, UF)

Yun-Q'aah
this Yuuzhan Vong deity was known as one of the Lovers, along with Yun-Txiin. Together, these two sibling deities protected those Yuuzhan Vong who discovered the emotion and passion of love, although they forbade relationships between castes. Worshippers of Yun-Q'aah and Yun-Txiin were part of a religious movement known as the Undying Flame. (EVC, SBS)

Yun-Shuno
this was the most grotesque of the Yuuzhan Vong gods. Also known as the Pardoner, Yun-Shuno was the patron diety of the Shamed Ones, those Yuuzhan Vong whose bodies refused to accept implants of surge-coral and implanters during the ritual of Escalation. Among the more escalated castes, Yun-Shuno was referred to as the "many-eyed mother of snivelers." At the end of the war, the Shamed One Onimi revealed to Jaina Solo that he had come to believe her brother, Jacen, was actually Yun-Shuno, since he alone of the Yuuzhan Vong could see her through the Force. (JE, EVC, DW, UF)

Yun-Txiin
this Yuuzhan Vong deity was known as one of the Lovers, along with Yun-Q'aah. Together, these two sibling deities protected those Yuuzhan Vong who discovered the emotion and passion of love, although they forbade relationships between castes. Worshippers of Yun-Q'aah and Yun-Txiin were part of a religious movement known as the Undying Flame. (EVC, SBS)

Yun-Yammka
this deity was the Yuuzhan Vong god of war and carnage. Known as The Slayer, Yun-Yammka resembled a large brain with a single eye and a puckered mouth. An array of tentacles emerged from around its body. Every Yuuzhan Ving warrior kept a statue of Yun-Yammka among his possessions, and prayed to Yun-Yammka for strength in battle. After the Second Battle of Coruscant, the Yuuzhan Vong planned to retake Borleias and turn the entire planet into a shrine for the priests of Yun-Yammka, as much to appease the priests as to discredit Domain Kraal. Yun-Yammka was often associated with the Trickster goddess, Yun-Harla. Because of this, many Yuuzhan Vong began to assocate Yun-Yammka with Jacen Solo, especially after his twin sister, Jaina, adopted the guise of Yun-Harla. At the end of the war, the Shamed One Onimi revealed to Jaina that he had come to believe her uncle, Luke Skywalker, was actually Yun-Yammka, since he alone of the Yuuzhan Vong could see her through the Force. Harrar later revealed that, in fact, there was no original god named Yun-Yammka. This deity was created by the priest caste after the ur-Yuuzhan Vong were severed from the Force and took up their warring ways. (VP, EL1, DW, FH2, UF)

Yun-Yuuzhan
this was the greatest of the deities worshipped by the Yuuzhan Vong. Yun-Yuuzhan was known as the Cosmic Lord or the Creator. Yun-Yuuzhan was considered the beginning of all that existed, and it was Yun-Yuuzhan who took parts of his own body to form the other gods as well as the Yuuzhan Vong themselves. Thus, statues of Yun-Yuuzhan often appeared incomplete, representing his own sacrifices. After the Yuuzhan Vong reformed the planet Coruscant into a representation of Yuuzhan'tar, an underground group of Shamed Ones began to spread The Message of the Jedi Knights. Nom Anor, cast out of his role as Executor because of his treachery, rallied the Shamed Ones while posing as the prophet Yu'shaa. Part of his heretical beliefs involved the true nature of the Force, and Yu'shaa theorized that the Force was actually the remnant of Yun-Yuuzhan's soul, after Yun-Yuuzhan gave birth to the universe. This theory, when repeated by countless Shamed Ones, evolved over time to state that the Force was actually the linger exhalations of Yun-Yuuzhan, instilling power in the Jedi Knights and linking the two civilizations together. (JE, EVC, FH2, NJOSB, UF)

Yur T'aug
this Bothan was a Captain in the security force which patrolled Coruscant's Imperial City, some twelve years before the Battle of Naboo. Distinguished by his dark fur and flowing beard, Captain T'aug was dispatched to investigate the murder of Fligh.

Yura Telamarch
this tall, dome-headed humanoid was the ruler of Bezim, and one of the founders of the Station 88 Spaceport. When the founders of the station met with Count Dooku on Null to discuss a possible alliance with the Confederacy of Independent Systems, Telamarch decided to side with Lorian Nod and throw his support to the Old Republic. Dooku decided that this was not an acceptable answer, and brought in twelve super battle droids in order to force an agreement.

Yurb
this little-known arid planet was the homeworld of the razor-tailed tiger. (MBS)

Yurdak Fav
this Shistavanen Wolfman was considered a threat to the Alliance. Her great-great-grandmother was a scout for the Republic Survey Corps until Emperor Palpatine rose to power, at which time she quit. Yurdak herself went into the scouting business, working for the Uvena System Constabulary before striking out on her own. She was spotted in the vicinity of several planets which the Alliance had planned to use as safeworlds, but it was unknown whom she was working for at the time. She traveled the galaxy in her starship, the Vangaard Pathfinder Zoll-Uvena. (AIR)

Yurf Col
this Duros served as a Commander in the New Republic military, and served under General Wedge Antilles during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. After the Battle of Duro, Yurf Col and many of his fellow Duros could barely contain their desire to return and liberate their homeworld. Col believed that his chance had come when Antilles ordered a task force to be dispatched to Duro. Unknown to Col, however, was that the mission was simply a feint, meant to draw in as many Yuuzhan Vong warships as possible. Once the enemy ships were in-system, New Republic interdictors would trap them there and destroy them. A secondary plan involved the reduction of Yuuzhan Vong forces at Fondor, allowing the Republic to retake the planet. Although Antilles feared that Col and the Duros might be too emotionally involved in the fight, he still hoped Col could be counted on to obey orders. Yurf Col, however, refused to simply sit back and watch his forces whittled away while more and more Yuuzhan Vong warships entered the arena. Col, furious with Antilles' seeming unconcern about the fate of the Duro System, resigned his commission. Col's forces, including his own ship Dpso and several Duros-commanded warships, tried to break ranks and attack the aliens themselves. However, without the support of the rest of the New Republic fleet, all the Duros ships were destroyed by Yuuzhan Vong forces. (FP)

Yus Sh'roth
this was one of the small group of Shamed Ones who lived with Vuurok I'pan beneath the surface of Coruscant, after the planet had been transformed into a likeness of Yuuzhan'tar. Sh'roth was once a Shaper, and was one of the older members of I'pan's small cadre of friends. Like the rest of their cadre, Sh'roth believed that the Jedi Knights were not abominations, but saviors of the Shamed Ones and symbols of the new ideology which should be embraced by the Yuuzhan Vong. For this reason, their band remained small, in case they were captured by the Yuuzhan Vong warriors. This ensured that their small cult of Jedi followers would never be fully discovered. Sh'roth was serving sentry duty when the small band of heretics was discovered by Yuuzhan Vong warriors. Sh'roth was the first to die as the warriors attacked the Shamed Ones mercilessly. (FH1)

Yusanis
this man was one of the most famous and feared of the Echani warriors who were active in the galaxy during the decades leading up to the Jedi Civil War. He was a decorated solider who was considered one of the greatest heroes of the Mandalorian Wars. Later, when Yusanis discovered that an Echani Senator had been killed by Darth Revan, he set out to confront the Sith Lord and bring him to justice. Despite his own skills and the special weapons of cortosis-weave that he used, Yusanis was quickly defeated by Darth Revan and forced to submit. Darth Revan held no compassion, and killed Yusanis in cold blood. It was later discovered that Yusanis was the father - figuratively and literally - of the Echani Handmaidens. (KOTOR, KOTOR2)

Yu'shaa
this was the name adopted by Nom Anor after he survived a Yuuzhan Vong attack on a Shamed One enclave on Coruscant, after the alien invaders transformed the planet into a simulacrum of Yuuzhan'tar. The name, which translated into the Basic language as "The Prophet", was meant to indicate that Nom Anor had decided to become the living vessel for carrying The Message to the rest of the Shamed Ones. He began gathering legions of Shamed Ones to his cause, furthering The Message of the Jedi while building a base of power rfom which he could strike back at Supreme Overlord Shimrra and the rest of the Yuuzhan Vong who had turned their backs on him. As Yu'shaa, Nom Anor wore a hideous mask that represented Shimrra and the Yuuzhan Vong gods. He wore the mask at the beginning of his speeches, but soon removed it to reveal his own visage. Of course, his own face was covered with an ooglith masquer, but Yu'shaa's removal of the mask symbolized the throwing off of the old ways and the old gods. Among the heretical beliefs proposed by Yu'shaa was the theory that the Force was actually the soul of Yun-Yuuzhan, cast into the universe when Yun-Yuuzhan created it. His ruse was revealed on the planet Zonama Sekot, after Tahiri told Harrar and Corran Horn that it had been Nom Anor who killed Nen Yim. When Nom Anor returned to Shimrra on Coruscant and was escalated to Prefect of Yuuzhan'tar, the Shamed Ones did not falter in their belief of Yu'shaa. Instead, they made the Prophet a martyr, killed at the hands of Shimrra himself for his pursuit of the living planet Zonama Sekot. Much to the relief of the believers, Yu'shaa reappeared, and warned them that their plans to disrupt Shimrra's grand ceremony had been discovered. Kunra, however, was noy about to let Nom Anor put a stop to the plans of the Shamed Ones. He twisted the warnings to encite the masses, forcing Yu'shaa to lead his people into battle. Nom Anor found himself caught between two masters, but his quest for power was smashed when Shimrra odered the World Brain of Coruscant to destroy the planet, rather than have it fall into the hands of the Galactic Alliance. Angry that Shimrra had cast him aside, Nom Anor shed his Prefect's robes and took up the cloak of a Shamed One. He led the Shamed Ones into battle as Yu'shaa, demanding that the Yuuzhan Vong warriors be slaughtered. (FH1, FH2, FP, UF)
