Biography
As a child, he was enslaved by the Galactic Empire along with his father, Wullffwarro. He was forced to work in the spice mines of Kessel until he and his fellow Wookiee slaves were rescued by a small band of rebels led by the Jedi Kanan Jarrus. Kitwarr was chased by a stormtrooper, but Ezra Bridger, a Force-sensitive human, came to his aid. The two were cornered on a catwalk by Agent Kallus, but they were able to escape soon afterwards aboard the Ghost. Kitwarr was able to reunite with his father; they and the other liberated Wookiees were picked up by an Auzituck anti-slaver gunship.[5]
In 3 BBY, Wullffwarro counseled his son to find a forested planet where he could find out if he had a connection to the living world. When he thought Kitwarr had become lost on the planet Oliu, Wullffwarro reached out to the Spectres asking for their help in finding him. Jarrus, Bridger, Sabine Wren, and Garazeb Orrelios traveled with Wullffwarro, searching for Kitwarr. However, during a storm, Bridger became separated from the group and was rescued by Kitwarr. At that point, Kitwarr had not achieved a connection with the Force, and Bridger consoled him, explaining that he too had struggled at first to find his connection. However, after Bridger was knocked unconscious during the storm, Kitwarr used telekinesis to draw three trees into a rough shelter for Bridger. The two were later recovered by the rest of the party.[6]
