Yashais dei Izvoshra was a male Kaleesh from Kalee. His parents had fought in the Huk War, which is where he got the name Izvoshra in reverence of the elite warriors of Qymaen jai Sheelal. With the outbreak of the Separatist Crisis, and the ensuing Clone Wars, Yashais became a child soldier, fighting on the side of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Even after the rise of the Empire, he continued the fight as part of the Kaleesh Resistance as a warlord under General Bentilais san Sk'ar.
Yashais fought under Sk'ar until the resistance movement was crushed nearly ten years after the Clone Wars had finished by the Chiss Imperial Captain Mitth'raw'nuruodo. With the levelling of Kalee, Yashais left his homeworld and disappeared into the underworld of the Outer Rim. Despite of the rise of the Rebel Alliance, Yashais felt no interest in the new movement, having no more love for the Republic than the Empire for he believed they were all the same. For the next few years he instead fell in with the Zann Consortium, taking to the world of crime and smuggling far more naturally than paying attention to the latest galactic civil war, of which he had had his fill during the Clone Wars.
Years later, with the outbreak of the Yuuzhan Vong War, Yashais had enough experience to know when he was on the losing side, and so threw himself in with the sycophants and parasites of the Peace Brigade, convinced the Yuuzhan Vong would ultimately come out on top. With his past military experience, he quickly rose to commodoreship of his own task force, commanding from an old Confederacy battlesphere Patriot's Fist. In the name of "peace" he committed numerous war crimes and atrocities on behalf of the Yuuzhan Vong Empire and the Ylesian Republic—the "formal" government of the Peace Brigade.
With the death of Shimrra Jamaane in 29 ABY, the empire quickly fell apart when Vong society completely imploded, their religion unable to operate without a Supreme Overlord. Yashais was one of the few Peace Brigaders who managed to escape the Second Battle of Ylesia and the arrest of the Ylesian Senate. He withdrew into Wild Space, where he encountered the self-proclaimed Warmaster Varesh Shai, with whom Yashais chose to ally his forces. Together with Varesh, for the next two years he then helped in a number of piratical raids along the Hydian Way and into Orian Space. Yashais also made contact on behalf of his Vong overseers with Sylus Vega, a fellow Peace Brigade operative from the Orian system. Working with Sylus, Yashais helped sow the seeds for a future invasion, acting as the main go-between for the inside contact and the Vong Warmaster himself.
