Due to the Wookiees' support the Jedi when Order 66 was issued, the Empire enforced a crackdown, with it taking several days of confusion to restore order in the city. The commando Triton Squad then began killing fugitive Wookiees throughout the forest before the Empire pulled out.
Age of the Empire
At the end of the Clone Wars, numerous Wookiees were slaughtered by the clone troopers they allied with in the ensuing chaos of the anti-Jedi Order 66, and soon after the establishment of the Galactic Empire, their homeworld of Kashyyyk was blockaded by the Empire.
Following the end of the Clone Wars, the new Galactic Empire annexed the planet Kashyyyk and enslaved the Wookiee species. The Empire regarded the Wookiees as beasts and reclassified them as non-sentient.
In 25 ABY, Chewbacca died on Sernpidal when Dubido, the planet's smallest moon, crashed into the world. Moments before his death, Chewbacca had heroically saved the life of Anakin, the youngest child of Han Solo and Leia Organa Solo.
While Chewbacca's death was a major fake-out, he did meet his demise in past Star Wars storylines. The Star Wars Expanded Universe, now known as Legends, killed off the figure in the 1999 book, The New Jedi Order: Vector Prime, by author R. A. Salvatore.
That's right, Chewbacca and Obi-Wan have a history together, as they fought side by side in this conflict. In fact, with Obi-Wan's help, Chewbacca successfully colonized Alaris Prime and turned it into an economically prosperous stronghold for the Wookiees beyond their home planet of Kashyyyk.
Wookiees have a lifespan of several hundred years: Chewbacca is 200 years old during the original trilogy, and is still in his prime.
In a new excerpt, it's revealed that the names of Rey's parents are Dathan and Miramir. Dathan is the dad and Miramir the mother, if you were wondering; it's not always clear with these names from a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.
Han is killed by his son but eventually returns as a memory to his son and helps redeem him back to the light side of the Force. The American Film Institute has named Solo as the 14th best film hero.
Chewbacca. Following the events of the original trilogy, Chewbacca liberated his homeworld Kashyyyk with the help of Han Solo and other Rebels and later retired. During The Mandalorian, Chewbacca is probably enjoying a peaceful retirement with a loving family you know very little about.
Yoda survived, however, with the help of natives Chewbacca and Tarfful, who used a hidden shuttle to evacuate the Jedi Master from the planet.
Due to the Wookiees' support the Jedi when Order 66 was issued, the Empire enforced a crackdown, with it taking several days of confusion to restore order in the city. The commando Triton Squad then began killing fugitive Wookiees throughout the forest before the Empire pulled out.
Mallatobuck (meaning "beautiful singer" in Shyriiwook), also known as Malla, was a female Wookiee from Kashyyyk. She was the wife of Chewbacca, and mother of their son Lumpawaroo. Malla had a brother named Vargi.
Creator George Lucas has explained via a DVD commentary that the reason they were changed to Ewoks was because it wouldn't make sense for the moon's creatures to have a stone-age culture when Chewbacca is so technologically adept at flying spaceships and the like. -- The name "Ewok" is an anagram for "Wookie." Sort of.
Gungi was a male Wookiee Jedi Padawan who trained to become a Jedi in the Jedi Order during the Clone Wars.
Even though we saw the Ewoks celebrating at the end of Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi, Purdue's Planetary researcher Dave Minton says that the Ewoks are all dead thanks to the huge impact from the second Death Star.
Kylo Ren Dies
Finally, the light side gets through to Ben right at the moment of Kylo Ren's death on the Death Star. Leia tells him to let go of his hatred, Rey saves his life even though she has no reason to (nor does he deserve it), and Han forgives him for his past sins.
Following Palpatine's final defeat and her own resurrection, Rey adopts the name Rey Skywalker to honor her mentors and their family legacy and renounce her lineage. As the last remaining Jedi, she makes it her mission to rebuild the Jedi Order.
When Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker's title was revealed, the theories of Rey's possible bloodline started up all over again. But whoever Rey ends up having for parents, fans can be sure of one thing: Han Solo isn't her father.
Affiliation(s) Zayne Skywalker was a force-sensitive Jedi Knight, and the son of Ben Solo and Rey Palpatine, a dyad in the force as the grandson of the Chosen One and the son of power force wielders, who became a legendary warrior and hero for the galaxy in the decades after the Battle of Exegol.
What is the connection between Kylo Ren and Rey? As Kylo Ren himself says in The Rise of Skywalker, he and Rey are bonded not just by their familial legacies (Ren as the grandson of Darth Vader and Rey as the granddaughter of Emperor Palpatine) but by their unique connection in the Force.
The Last Jedi took the stance that Rey's parents were nobody, and while this may have been true from a certain point of view, The Rise of Skywalker gave us the true answer to Rey's parentage. In the film, we learned that Rey was a Palpatine, and her father was a clone of the infamous Sith Lord.
There are no Wookiee Sith. If you read the “Behind the Scenes” section of the starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Wookiee/Legends page, you will note that Lucas decreed that there would be no more Wookiee force users introduced after 2003 unless he approved.
