Yuvar Xal was a male Human Sith Master in the Sith Tribe from the planet Kesh. By 43.5 ABY, he had taken on the Keshiri Ahri Raas as his apprentice. That year, Xal was one of the many Sith who felt Jedi Grand Master Luke Skywalker's presence in the Force after the Jedi touched an Aing-Tii relic, the Codex. Xal later argued against sending a single strike team after Skywalker, believing the Sith would need a stronger force to bring him down. Nevertheless, Xal and Raas were chosen for the strike force sent to track the Meditation Sphere Ship and kill Skywalker. Xal served as Lady Olaris Rhea's executive officer for the mission.
