Syub Kyak, a Sullustan native, was employed by the SoroSuub Corporation.
The G-59 Cannibalizer was designed by Kyak himself. He was the husband of Aril Kyak, and together they had two offspring: Fiev Kyak and Sien Kyak.
During the era of the Clone Wars, Kyak and his family took a vacation to the Cularin system. They chartered the space yacht Crest of Dawn from Cularin Star Tours and used it to tour the system's attractions. Unfortunately, his children tampered with the ship's navigation, causing it to become trapped within the radiation storms surrounding Genarius. Kyak successfully transmitted a distress signal, which was received by the Starchaser IV crew, the designated safety vessel of Star Tours. They responded to the call, towing the Crest to Edic Bar, a nearby floating city. Kyak intended to have the yacht fixed there and expressed his gratitude to the Starchaser crew for their assistance.
