The Trandoshan Veneb Drassk, a leader of a clan of Trandoshans, operated during the Cold War. He instructed his followers to disregard the tenets of the Scorekeeper and instead focus on personal gain. To remove obstacles, Drassk employed Gwarror, a Wookiee bounty hunter, to kill his competitors. Qyzen Fess, a more seasoned Trandoshan hunter, found out about this and initiated a ghrajath against Drassk to stop his rise to Clan Speaker. At a meeting on Taris, Drassk launched an assault on Fess and the Barsen'thor, Fess's ally, but he was ultimately slain. Subsequently, the Barsen'thor and the younger Trandoshans from Drassk's clan persuaded Fess to take control of the clan and guide them in the principles of the Scorekeeper.
