| ALL FOR THE WOOKIE
Adult
Wookies are typically taller than most humans, averaging 2.1 meters
(6'11"). They possess enormous strength- Solo states that his friend
Chewbacca can pull a mans' arms out of their sockets if angered.
Wookies have a keen sense of smell - Chewbacca senses the presence of
the trash compactor monster on the Death Star with it. Wookies are
fully covered with a thick coat of hair. Wookies have good eye-hand
coordination and are shown to be excellent marksmen. Chewbacca is shown
in such diverse planets as Hoth, Tatooine and Endor, never requiring
any type of environmental protective clothing. Wookiees have a lifespan
of several hundred years.
Wookies are devoted, loyal friends
and are very distrustful of strangers. Wookies have notoriously short
tempers. Life debt is sacred to Wookies. Despite a fearsome appearance
and temperamental disposition, Wookies are shown to be very
intelligent and have a command of complicated technology. Chewbacca is
co-pilot and performs maintenance on the starship Millennium Falcon. He
had a basic knowledge of robotics, haphazardly re-assembling the
blasted-apart droid C-3PO. Wookies are fast learners - Chewbacca
commandeers and Imperial AT-ST during the Battle of Endor is shown
effectively manuvering the machine and operating its' weapons systems.
Wookies
have an understanding of Star Wars universe warfare and fought
alongside Republic Forces during the Clone Wars. Wookies were betrayed
and enslaved shortly after that conflict.
