"I am the last of our people. I broadcast this warning in the hope that it will reach somebody. Anybody. The Yuuzhan Vong are coming."

- Unidentified warrior

This unidentifed warrior's species were exterminated by the Yuuzhan Vong around 25 ABY during the Yuuzhan Vong War prior to the Battle of Artorias. He was the sole surviving member of his species following a one-sided engagement against the Yuuzhan Vong. He was made a prisoner but was able to transmit a message warning others of the threat of the Yuuzhan Vong. His transmission was intercepted by the crew of the Pythea whom he relayed his story to. However, they were killed during a dogfight with Yuuzhan Vong vessels before they could warn Artorias. Later, the unidentified warrior joined forces with the Artorian princess Kaye Galfridian and other slaves to revolt on the slaveship Tsam P'ah.

Early life
This unidentifed humanoid warrior lived on a primitive feudal world in isolation to the rest of the Galaxy. A warlike people, his civilization valued martial skills from infancy and their scientists disdained medicines in favor of war matériel. His people regularly hunted and subdued various fierce animal species. Consequently, they believed themselves to be strong and impregnable to any threat. They possessed primitive semi-industrial technology including tanks.

In 25 ABY, the extragalactic Yuuzhan Vong species launched an invasion of the known galaxy. In an attempt to pin down the New Republic, undercover Yuuzhan Vong operatives had infiltrated and stirred trouble on Belkadan and Rhommamool. Meanwhile, the main fleet invaded and seized several Outer Rim worlds including Dubrillion, Destrillion and Dantooine; forcing the Republic and Jedi into retreat.

Around the time of the Battle of Dantooine, a potent Yuuzhan Vong invasion force landed on their world and waged war on the warrior species. Despite the valor and arsenal of the assembled indigenous army which deployed tanks, they were easily wiped out by the onslaught of Fire Breathers. These deadly war beasts had flexible proboscises that spewed streams of gelatinous flame and pores that exhaled anti-laser aerosols. The warrior species were quickly exterminated as the Yuuzhan Vong pacified their homeworld.

Captivity
Only he survived and was taken captive aboard a Yuuzhan Vong slaveship Tsam P'ah. During his captivity and despite his captor's intense hatred of mechanical technology, he was still able to transmit a signal into space which was eventually picked up by the two-men crew of the exploratory ship Pythea&mdash;the Chiss Panha and her Wookiee companion Sarkkin. Having intercepted the signal, the warrior related the nature and culture of his species before going to warn them of the depredations of the Yuuzhan Vong.

The warrior's species had been devastated in the attack; he urged recipients of the message to flee the oncoming Yuuzhan Vong invasion force while they still could, as attempting to fight the species was futile. Given that Panha's species the Chiss had fought the Yuuzhan Vong before, she understood the nature of their threat to the galaxy. Picking up the presence of a Yuuzhan Vong fleet near them in hyperspace, they powered up the Phythea and fled to the nearest world Artorias; in an attempt to warn the Artorians.

However, they were pursued by Yuuzhan Vong vessels. The Chiss explorer attempted to communicated with Artorias but the message was intercepted by an advance infiltrator who ensured that it did not get through. After fighting off a Yuuzhan Vong boarding party, the two friends drove their starship into the prow of the Yuuzhan Vong cruiser, immolating themselves and their vessel.

Later, the unidentified warrior joined forces with the Artorian princess Kaye Galfridian and other slaves to stage a revolt on their slaveship.
