In 19 BBY, the Shistavanen along with his companions—an Utai and a Zabrak—were drinking in the Quarek'k when the bounty hunter Aurra Sing came in during a mission. The three of them blocked Sing's path and the Zabrak tried to elicit a kiss from Sing, which resulted in the Zabrak's arm being cauterized by Sing's lightsaber. The Shistavanen lunged at Sing with his vibroblade and ended up being decapitated.
