Skahaz is one of the nobles who welcomes the arrival of Daenerys Targaryen into the city. He shaves his red and black hair as a symbol of him leaving behind the ways of the Old Meereen in favour of the New Meereen. Some of his followers join in on this practice. 
Under the orders of Daenerys, Skahaz founds the Brazen Beasts, an organisation of Shavepates and freedmen, which will serve as a city watch for Meereen, as a way of combatting the attacks coming from the Sons of the Harpy. Skahaz frequently argues with Daenerys over her refusal not to harm the cupbearers that she took as hostage to ward against attacks from the Sons of the Harpy. 
After Daenerys weds Hizdahr zo Loraq and flees the city, Skahaz is removed as captain of the Brazen Beasts by Hizdahr, and is replaced by Marghaz zo Loraq. Skahaz still believes that the Brazen beasts would follow him, however. 
He slowly starts to become suspicious of Hizdahr, and believes that he attempted to poison Daenerys at the fighting pit, but that Belwas ate the poisoned locusts intended for her. he takes his concerns to Barristan Selmy, and together with Grey Worm they seize Hizdahr and take control of the city, in time for war with Yunkai.
