In the year 1 ABY, a band of Trandoshan slavers belonging to the Blackscale Clan, led by the slaver master Klesk, established a base of operations on Kashyyyk. This camp, located in the southern Etyyy area, comprised three sizable tents and was protected by heavily armed Blackscale sentries.
A spacer, dispatched by the Zssik Clan's Mosolium faction (who were rivals to the Blackscale), infiltrated the camp. This spacer eliminated Klesk along with some of his slaver henchmen. The goal of this action was to obtain the access codes required to enter the Avatar Platform.
