Chewbacca is the greatest ally that I have known before my years as a Jedi Master. He's almost like a brother to me.
—Ki-Adi-Mundi on Chewbacca.

Biography[]
Clone Wars[]
In 19 BBY, Ki-Adi-Mundi and Chewbacca were reunited during the Clone Wars when the Separatists invaded Chewbacca's homeworld of Kashyyyk. The Cerean volunteered to go and defend the Wookiees due to his long relations with them. When Ki-Adi-Mundi arrived, there was no threat, but it was Chewbacca who warned the clone troopers about the droid armies heading there way. The battle had begun and Chewbacca led the Wookiees into battle. The Republic was victorious when Ki-Adi-Mundi deactivated the droids. Chewbacca was awarded a general of the clone armies. In 17 BBY, Chewbacca and his new teammate Han Solo tracked down the Separatist leader Garindan to Tatooine. The Jedi Master Mace Windu and his droid R4-P17 helped kill Garindan and save the planet.
Behind the scenes[]
Chewbacca remains the same as the movies, but he is friends with Ki-Adi-Mundi instead of Yoda. He is also a general for the remainder of the Clone Wars.
