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.

Description: Lumpy is Chewbacca and Malla’s son, a short, plump, feisty, 10-year-old.

No, Lumpy isn’t actually Supreme Leader Snoke, but he has made himself into official Star Wars canon, somehow!

The Chuck Wendig novel Aftermath: Empire’s End reveals that Chewbacca’s son from the Star Wars Holiday Special is now part of the official canon.

Enslavement and separation. Chewbacca, Malla and Lumpawaroo Chewbacca had a wife named Mallatobuck and a son named Lumpawaroo. “Malla” and their son “Waroo” were also enslaved by the Galactic Empire and were put into an Imperial slave labor camp on their homeworld of Kashyyyk.

But Gormaanda isn’t even the worst thing about the holiday special. There’s an uncomfortably sexual interlude in which Chewbacca’s aging father Itchy — likely more than 350 years old, given an average Wookiee’s lifespan — is serenaded by an apparently naked Diahann Carroll from inside a kaleidoscope. “Oh yes.

Chewbacca’s character design was based on concept art drawn by Ralph McQuarrie. Lucas had originally given McQuarrie a photo of a lemur for inspiration, and McQuarrie proceeded to draw the character as a female—but Chewbacca was soon changed to a male.

Chewbacca, known affectionately to his friends as Chewie, was a Wookiee male warrior, smuggler, mechanic, pilot, and resistance fighter who fought in the Clone Wars, the Galactic Civil War, and the Cold War and subsequent First Order/Resistance War.

In France, in the original Star Wars film, his name was changed to “Chiktabba” and his nickname to “Chiko”, because the English name was similar to “chewing tobacco”, which in French is “tabac à mâcher” or “tabac à chiquer”, similar to “Chiquetabac”. In the other episodes, his name was “Chewbacca”.

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.

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.

According to the infamous Star Wars Holiday Special, Chewbacca had a wife named Mallatobuck, a son named Lumpawaroo (a.k.a. “Lumpy”), and a father named Attichitcuk (a.k.a. “Itchy”). In the special, Chewie and Han visit the Wookiee home planet of Kashyyyk to celebrate “ Life Day ,” a celebration of the Wookiee home planet’s diverse ecosystem.

Lumpawaroo was the son of Chewbacca and his wife Malla. During the Age of the Empire, the Wookiees of Kashyyyk were enslaved by the Galactic Empire. When Lumpawaroo was young, he ventured down into the dangerous depths of Kashyyyk to find wasaka berries, which even adult Wookiees were reluctant to do.
