Yem Leksende was a Human male, who held the position of head within the Czerka Corporation. Additionally, he was a member of the Star Cabal, responsible for supervising all of Czerka's operations across the galaxy during both the Cold War and the Galactic War. Furthermore, he was the progenitor of Gayem Leksende, who commanded Czerka's specialized enforcement division.
During the Cold War era, specifically in 3643 BBY, Yem Leksende occupied the role of Head of Czerka Corporation, frequently presiding over the Board of Directors and ensuring Czerka maintained its neutral stance.
A notable instance occurred during the Battle of Corellia, which was initiated by the resurgent Sith Empire. On this occasion, he conveyed his apologies for the actions taken by Czerka Corellia in resisting the aforementioned invasion. Subsequently, in 3640 BBY, it came to light that Yem Leksende was affiliated with the Star Cabal. He materialized as a hologram, articulating his stipulations before The Prince. Shortly thereafter, The Prince and the other members faced an assault from an Imperial operative known as "Cipher Nine."
