Kejas was a male Melida from the planet Melida/Daan. He served as part of a four-man sniper task force with Moahdi, Herut, and their leader, Wehutti while waiting for emissaries from the Jedi Temple to arrive. The task force attacked Jedi Knights Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, mistaking them for Daan enemies instead of their Jedi contacts, but the combatants recognized their blunder before anyone was seriously harmed.
