Yun-Yammka

"To you, Yun-Yammka, accept those lives. In return for that gift, grant us success."

- Tsavong Lah

Yun-Yammka, the Slayer, was the God of War of the Yuuzhan Vong. Yun-Yammka was worshiped by the Warrior caste, and was the one who taught the Yuuzhan Vong the importance of blood sacrifices. Every appeal to him was accompanied with a death sacrifice, except the morning and evening prayers.

All Warmasters were remodeled in his image. In statues and other forms of art, however, his physical appearance was that of a yammosk. The Warriors were fanatical in their devotion to him, with some Warriors even placing him before Yun-Yuuzhan in terms of importance. In Yuuzhan Vong religion, Yun-Yammka was often paired with Yun-Harla as the Twin Gods.

Despite Yun-Yammka's importance in Yuuzhan Vong culture, he was not one of their native deities. The Priest caste created him when the Yuuzhan Vong became warlike.

Yun-Yammka was also considered to be the patron of prefects. Some philosophers believed he sometimes worked against the Yuuzhan Vong.
