    Their short tempers may also play a role. When Luke becomes Grand Master he has the epiphany that Jedi should be in tune with and healthily _express_ their emotions instead of suppressing them and that includes anger, Wookies freely express their rage but only ever at the source, never lashing out at what's convenient.

Far beyond any invasion or battle the systematic defoliation and harvesting of the deep old growth jungle left deep scars in the land and cost the Wookie people countless sacred places.

    Even though it’s an impossibility a Sith Wookie is an absolutely terrifying concept. Their pension for ripping off the limbs of whatever angers them combined with the unnatural abilities of the Dark Side, such a thing would be straight up nightmare fuel because of how savage it would be if you really pissed off a Sith Wookie. There would probably be nothing left of who ever tried to fight them. It’s a good thing that Wookies are so inclined towards the light because if I was a Jedi I would not want to encounter a Sith Wookie.

    In KOTOR, when you find the star forge map. It’s mentioned that the growth of the flora and fauna on kashyyk has been influenced by the star forge map and dark side. So this would include the Wookies, maybe due to that they have developed a resistance to the dark side influences. Or that it’s that difficult to survive, they have to work together and trust implicitly. If they stood alone, they wouldn’t last very long…

    The Studio in question is Obsidian Entertainment. so instead of turning Hanharr into a Jedi, they turned him into a crazed Wookie berserker that is almost as good as a Jedi. For those that don't know. Hanharr is a possible companion in Knights of the Old Republic 2 - the sith lords. he joins the player's party if you are dark-sided when you trigger a certain cut scene with Mira, where she describes you more like a Sith than a Jedi. If you are light-sided or Neutral, you get Mira instead. Mira is my favourite companion in the game. Not just because she can be turned into a Jedi, but because she's great with blasters, so you can play both blaster Jedi or you can go with lightsabers, you can do this with Atton too. Also, Mira's humour is perfect.

      I came down here to say this: It's disingenuous to say no Wookie ever fell to the Dark Side. No Wookie Force sensitive has thus far fallen to the Dark Side, but even though Lucas nixed Hanharr being a Dark Force user, he is stll very much a Dark Side affiliated being. However, he is also clearly the exception that proves the rule, and shows just how twisted a Wookie would have to become to fall to the Dark Side.

      That last part is because of thousands of years of influence by members of Yoda's race, who, because of their long lifespans, see friends and loved ones live and die. It's easier for these beings to live detached, but as Dooku learned long before his corruption, a Jedi needs a certain amount of attachment to normal people if they are to be compassionate to those people.
      In ages past, they blamed Arrun Kae's teachings when her students, most notably Revan, became Sith. But what of Darths Tyrannus or Vader? What of older Sith Lords that started as Jedi; Ulec Qel-Droma, or Exar Kun? Is there a fundamental flaw in the Jedi teachings that failed those people?

      The Jedi never forbade attachments.Yoda had Wookie friends, and we see Obi-Wan's friend Dexter in AOTC. The prohibition against attachments should be understood within the context that Jedi should not prioritize attachments to the point where they are tempted to be selfish. _That_ is why Yoda told Anakin that he was entering the danger zone in ROTS.

    The moment you mentioned lobacca or lowie as he was nicknamed than you should have mentioned that he was Chewie’s nephew.
    So you dropped the ball there and I too read that same book as the main plot was split as it also involved the solo twins who found a crashed tie fighter and they repaired it and were given a damaged hyper drive which they repaired and than put into the tie fighter.
    The pilot of it was an imprerial officer who had survived and watched the kids before making his move and holding one of them hostage.
    This was also when they all were children and the twins young teenagers, Ben was I think 10 in the story and had a droid nanny taking care of him at the new Jedi temple.
    Lobocca had a yellow or gold colored lightsaber blade.

    what if the Empire's presence on Kashyyyk is so strong is bc he knows about gungi surviving and has known he has fled to his home world, and a wookie jedi could best him in both raw power, as well as age and longevity. I think it would be cooler to see if maybe one other youngling from that CN/CW Arc if they both survived together and the one that made it with Gungi gets killed and a depressed Gungi retreats to the Shadowlands and sits in hatred...But Palapatine can feel this and will stop at nothing to get to Gungi. Hence why the Empire has such a hold on that system. What do yall think, it makes sense right?

    "There are no sith wookies" - Well, technically yes, we haven't seen one but there are definitely evil wookies that pretty much behave like Sith like Hanharr from Kotor.
    This is a description of Hanharrs behaviour from an ingame character: "It's like he's out to make the whole galaxy suffer-every living thing in it. He wants to break them, ruin them, and when they can't suffer any more, he wants them dead."

    My LEGO Star Wars character was Eknar the Wookie Jedi. He was kind of a grey Jedi in my mind though, and I think I gave him a Darth Maul lightsaber, so it had to be red, and the game made him have dark side powers because of that. I kinda want to play it now. Maybe there's even an updated LEGO Star Wars now.

  • @Korgano
    @Korgano Před rokem +1

    Part of why it seems like there are few Wookie Jedi is that there are so many human Jedi, but humans inhabit dozens of planets in Star Wars and Wookies mainly come from one. When you look at it that way, it’s probably not that Force sensitivity is rare in Wookies but rather that the amount of Force sensitives from their species is proportionate to the amount of Wookies there are in comparison to the trillions of humans.

    A wookie Jedi in a movie would be amazing. I imagine the lightsaber would be larger to suit his size. A hilt that’s so big a human would need two hands to pick it up. The blade would be much longer too. I think that would be pretty cool

      average swords(and lightsabers) have about 1 meter long blade. Lightsaber hilts are already *meant* to be used with two hands, though it is possible to hold them in one. So, say an 8-foot tall Wookiee would need a huge hilt and would likely adjust the blade to be 1.5 meters or so.

    Their culture really does dissuade against needless violence and betrayal. Plus Wookies are very stubborn and resilient case and point is the enslavement of Kashyyyk’s general population and how long they waited for a time to strike as hard as possible. That reminds me of The Force Unleashed where Darth Vader leads a military raid on Kashyyyk because the troops alone can’t handle the immense strength and determination of the Wookies.
