Exemplar Zheus was a male Sayormi who lived in the Kkowir Forest on the planet Kashyyyk. He was a high ranking member of a group known as the Outcasts. In 1.5 ABY, Kerritamba Village was under siege by both the Sayormi and the Outcasts. One of its residents, Ardon, instructed a spacer who had aided the village previously to find and eliminate Zheus in a continuing effort to weaken the threats poised against the village. The spacer found the Exemplar near an area of the forest known as the Mysess Glade. The spacer fought and killed Zheus, and returned to the village, relaying the news of his victory to Ardon. Ardon was impressed with the spacer and rewarded them with 5,000 credits and a commendation for protecting the village.
