Kuhqo, a shaper from the Yuuzhan Vong race, fell from grace to become a Shamed One. Embracing the Jeedai heresy, he employed a genetic splicer to tap into an Executor's qahsa. His objective was to locate planets potentially matching the Prophet's living world. This quest led him, along with other Heretics such as Hul Qat, to the planet Dagobah, where they encountered Tahiri Veila, also known as the one-who-was-shaped.
