Dresk Kist

Dresk Kist was a female Slith with dark stripes down her scales. Within her tribe, she held the position of First Mate, giving her authority over all the other females and young. In addition to this role, Kist was also tribe shaman for six years, responsible for praying to deceased Slith ancestors and to the desert gods. In this capacity, Kist gained a reputation for holiness, not only among her own tribe but also within other clans. Kist had piercing red eyes, which she used to powerful effect, often closing them to mere slits.

While it was unusual for Slith shamans to participate in hunts, nonetheless, Kist was an effective huntress. She frequently went on solo hunts while her clan members were sleeping, using her natural venom to paralyze prey for eating alive later. On one such hunting expedition, Kist met a Rebel negotiating team that was scouting out Yavin 13 for potential base locations.
