Description: Lumpawaroo, also known as Waroo, was a Wookiee male who emerged from the shadow of his famous father Chewbacca to become a brave, talented, and powerful warrior within the Rwookrrorro community on the planet Kashyyyk. Born Lumpawarrump in 1 BBY and known as Lumpy throughout his youth, he was raised by his mother Mallatobuck and his grandfather Attichitcuk while Chewbacca served a life debt to and traveled the galaxy with the Human smuggler Han Solo. Lumpawarrump idolized his father and constantly dreamed of the elder Wookiee's adventures while Chewbacca was away. While gathering wasaka berries in Kashyyyk's dangerous Shadowlands in preparation for Chewbacca's 200th birthday, a young Lumpawarrump hoped to be as brave as his father but ended up hiding, terrified, from the various creatures that lurked in the forest. Although his father rescued him and brought him home, the ordeal caused Lumpawarrump considerable trauma. Coupled with the absence of a father figure to help him grow into a brave young man, the experience turned Lumpawarrump into a shy and timid Wookiee who rarely left his home. Unless Chewbacca was around for Lumpawarrump to attempt to impress, he stayed away from danger and did not find his rrakktorr, the eager and defiant strength of a male Wookiee's heart.
In 1 ABY, two years after Lumpawarrump's misadventure in the Shadowlands, he and his family were visited by members of the Galactic Empire on the Wookiee holiday Life Day. The Imperials were searching Kashyyyk for ties between its inhabitants and the Rebel Alliance and remained in Lumpawarrump's home for some time before Chewbacca and Solo arrived to celebrate the holiday. Chewbacca and Solo helped free Lumpawarrump and many other Wookiees from slavery at the hands of the Nagai Knife three years later, and in 8 ABY, Lumpawarrump and Mallatobuck visited Chewbacca at his apartment on the galactic capital of Coruscant. The three became tangled in an Imperial scheme to destroy the New Republic that Chewbacca and Solo served, and Lumpawarrump was kidnapped by several Coruscanti underdwellers and taken to a secret Imperial detention center in the planet's underlevels. After his parents rescued him, the three Wookiees were able to prevent the underdwellers from unleashing a nerve toxin at an upcoming New Republic governmental banquet.
Personality and traits
As a teenager, Lumpawarrump tried to emulate Chewbacca rather than assert his own identity. He often played under the name "Lumpacca" in the hologame "Galactic Rebels" and boasted to his friends that he was as strong as his father. While chasing a burglar through the depths of Coruscant, he proceeded exactly how he thought Chewbacca would and was very ashamed when his plans did not succeed, feeling that he had let his father down and that he was not as strong or as independent as Chewbacca. He lost some of his energy when Chewbacca scolded him but gained it back whenever he received praise from his father. Although Chewbacca was not able to visit his family on Kashyyyk very often over the following eight years, Lumpawarrump was still deeply anxious for his father's approval during his hrrtayyk ceremony in 16 ABY. He insisted on accompanying Chewbacca to the Koornacht Cluster in that year to rescue Han Solo, eager for the chance to pass his hrrtayyk at his father's side. Lumpawarrump knew that death possibly awaited him, but the idea of failing his father was a fear that loomed larger in his mind. By this point in his life, Lumpawarrump felt the heavy burden of being the son of a legendary warrior and desperately wanted to prove his worth to both Chewbacca and to his community in Rwookrrorro.
When in Chewbacca's presence, Lumpawarrump sought praise only from his father and ignored instructions issued to him by Mallatobuck. He was not rebellious toward his mother when at home, however, and he never yelled at her. He was considerate of her feelings and did not tell her about his plans to gather wasaka berries in the Shadowlands so as to not hurt her, as she had expressly forbidden him from going. Lumpawarrump was additionally very fond of Solo, the man to whom Chewbacca owed a life debt. He loved to hear stories from Solo whenever the smuggler visited Kashyyyk and believed Solo to be just as brave as his father. Solo in turn cared deeply for the young Wookiee, having found the chunky baby cute right from his birth. Solo thought of all of Lumpawarrump's family as his own, and in 40 ABY, he mused that Lumpawaroo and Jacen Solo could have one day inherited the Millennium Falcon from him had Jacen not fallen to the dark side of the Force.
Lumpawarrump's early adventure in the Shadowlands was responsible for a great deal of trauma that caused him to start staying close to his home and the Rwookrrorro nursery ring. When he asserted to other young Wookiees that he was as strong as his father, his bluff was called and he was beaten up. Mallatobuck and Attichitcuk did not encourage him to participate in the nursery ring's rough unstructured play, and as such, Lumpawarrump did not develop the typically fearless fighting style of Wookiee males. Without any close friends, he grew insular and soft-spoken and rarely left home. Chewbacca felt guilty about not being able to be at home and instruct his son in the ways of the Wookiees, but Lumpawarrump did not begrudge his father. He dreamed of his father's adventures while he stayed at home, and he overcame his timidity while in Chewbacca's presence in an effort to impress him.
