I just thought i would introduce my self and let you know a little bit about my self
It was a cool autumn's night wet with the passing rain storm that is a common occurance on kashyyk. The quest was for one of the Siren plant's venemous teeth. To achieve this would mean induction into the wookiee tree top hunters. I was gifted one ryyk blade by my uncle Ishbecca a leader of the battalion of wookiee warriors. I had spotted one opening it's luring blossoms to recieve the sun which was receding from the emptied rain clouds in the sky. I grasped onto a kashyy vine and prepared to swing down and in one motion claim my families honor. My father was a sickly man and had squandered our honor to work on his engeneering and mathematics skills. As i readied my self a unsuspecting kroyie bird flew past me and caught the siren plant's attention.....I had been spotted. I had to act quickly i hacked away at the branch above me, a thin one but it would serve its purpose. I hurled with all my strength to the siren's gaping maw. The deadly plant cought it in it's mouth and lodged it length wise so it kept it's mouth wide open. I bravely leaped inside and met an advisary i did not expect, it's tounge. I came in with a downward slash on the it but it seemed not to notice and it quickly smashed my head on the upper palatte of it's mouth. this action allowed the plant some room to come back down on the piece of wood and crack it, i didnt have much time i thrusted vertically down in the tounge and used all my might to keep moving until the blade was pinning the tounge down to its mandible. I then searched my side pouch for anything to dislodge the a tooth with. I looked back to see the wood beam begin to splinter under the enoumous pressure of the plants jaw. i was so angry i began punching the roof of it's mouth and i punched so hard i broke the bone and my fist drove itself into the gray matter of the siren plant. I had defeated my foe and retrieved a hole necklace full of teeth and some meat for a feast. It was the happiest day of my life. Until we recieved word of the trandoshan's army invading the planet. It was the beginning of the wookiee-trandoshan war. some 150 years before the empire. I was still a lad but was ready for battle among my clan's veteran fighters. All the Clans south of the ralrran river banded together to form a force to match the trandoshan's. We formed our ranks fo bowcasterman, and lizard riders. If they were in trouble they were to retreat into the trees and we would take care of the pursuers. many lives were lost on that battle field it was a bloodbath for both sides but our defenses held and we chased off the filthy trandoshans. This wasnot the end however. many decades followed of war with our neibors and there was no clear victor. Eventually since there was a standoff there was a sortof unspoken peace treaty for there was no formal document signed. The Empire contracted the trandoshans to enslave the wookiees for hard labor in ship factories and spice mines scattered across the galaxie. our clan was overrun and we were captured. I was put in the mines on one of the moons of naboo. Mining the silky webbing of the gigantic spiders that lived in the caves. One day Two twileks came to our outfit. One was a trainer named Kidio he had come in hopes to calm the spiders so the death count on miners would go down. It was 4 a day at least. The other was of more shadowy sort, his name was Aralli. He was makeing dealings with the boss to get some silk raw so he could make the spice. In the heat of their bartering for price one of the spiders got excited and threw aside Kidio, knocking him unconscious. Aralli and the trandoshan boss were stunned and defensless at the sight of the lumbering hulk of a spider running towards them. I and my mining team, consisting of two other wookiees and 5 yuzzems took up our picks and shovels and brought down the beast. Aralli saw that i was the one who organized the attack and greatly appreciated my work. He appreciated it so much that He bought me and we became great friends. He set me free and went back to ryloth promising a return. I stayed with kidio helping eachother survive the wilderness of dantooine.
and so we are here now Kidio is just finishing up his studies in bio-chemical engeneering. and i am advancing my skills with my ryyk blade. I am loyal to the Empire's cause of bringing order back to the galaxy. (i dont know quite how to end it so ill just end with a proverb of the Great Spirit's teachings "Those who show mercy shall recieve it")
