Variations of the Wookiees
The Wookiees, whose name for themselves translated to the People of the Trees, were a species of hairy bipedal humanoids that were inhabitants of the planet Kashyyyk.
The Wookiees' natural habitat was the dense forests of the planet Kashyyyk, though one source does contend that they were immigrants to this planet. Kashyyyk was covered with massive Wroshyr trees, in which the Wookiees constructed their homes and cities. Reportedly, Wookiees were descended from tree-climbing mammalians.
They had the ability to easily learn most languages. However, Wookiees lacked the vocal structure to speak anything other than their own languages. One of the better-known Wookiees was Rhhonyyr, who later became a Sith Lord named Darth Veksa'shun. Another famous Wookiee was Kelnhofer, he was a Jedi Master who wielded a double-bladed purple lightsaber and escaped during Order 66.
Wookiees usually carried bowcasters to defend their homeworld from slavers.
