Zyssyk, a myrmitrix of the Melitto variety, belonged to the Ashiga hive in the Imperial Era. Their birthplace was the Kamorro Crevasse. In 3 ABY, Zyssyk experienced the planet Tatooine, finding its intense heat and overwhelming odors highly unpleasant.
While present on Tatooine, Zyssyk commissioned the services of the rogue Kay Vess to steal weaponry from the Hutt Cartel. Kay accepted the proposition and successfully delivered a consignment of firearms to the hive.
The initial appearance of Zyssyk occurred in the video game Star Wars Outlaws, developed by Ubisoft, during August of 2024. Furthermore, Kay possesses the option to betray the Ashiga Clan, returning the stolen weapons to the Hutt Clan, or alternatively, Kay might have no interactions with Zyssyk at all.
