Shalish

Shalish was a human female^[2] who was a member of the Path of the Open Hand cult and its sub-group the Path of the Closed Fist.^[6] In 382 BBY,^[7] she was assigned to join several other Path members led by prospector Radicaz Dobbs on a mission to the fabled Planet X to retrieve eggs of the Nameless species and bring them back to the Path compound on the planet Dalna so that they could be used against the Jedi. Shalish made the journey aboard the Bonecrusher, with Wole, Tareen, Geth, and its owner Galamal.^[2]

Eventually, Shalish traveled with fellow Path members Wole and Geth on a ship containing many of the eggs, transporting them. After their ship entered a firefight with the Galactic Republic Pathfinder ship Witherbloom, the ships crash-landed on a rocky planet, breaking open one of the Nameless eggs and setting the creature free.^[5] Shalish and the other Path members were forced to work with the Jedi and Pathfinders to survive, though Shalish was very vocal about her disdain for them.^[8] Eventually, after she abandoned helping one of the Pathfinders with a plan to stop the creature, bringing a reluctant Wole with her, both were killed by the creature.^[3]
