Chukha-Trok

Chukha-Trok was a male Ewok woodcutter and a member of the tribe that inhabited Bright Tree Village. Known as an exceptionally strong and tall Ewok, he was counted on by the tribe to defend the village from enemies such as the Duloks and to tend to the forest surrounding their home. In this capacity, Chukha-Trok cleared the grove of infected trees and was able to avert the flood of the village by creating a makeshift dam. In his role as a warrior, Chukha-Trok was present for several pivotal battles deciding the fate of the Ewoks and was instrumental in discovering the lost Ewok Princess Asha. Among the tribe, Chukha was friends with several Ewoks including Deej Warrick, and his sons, Wicket and Weechee. He was also familiar with Princess Kneesaa a Jari Kintaka and was a dependable supporter of her father, Chief Chirpa.

Around 3 ABY, Chukha-Trok was recruited by the Ewok Shaman Logray to join a rescue mission. The mission was an attempt to rescue the parents of the lost Human children, Mace Towani and Cindel Towani, who had been kidnapped by the fearsome Gorax. Although he initially had no interest in the dangerous mission, Chukha was convinced by Mace to join the team. Alongside the rest of the group, Chukha-Trok infiltrated the Forbidden Fortress of the Gorax and helped rescue the Towani's parents. However, the Gorax attempted to stop the group from escaping, and in the ensuing battle, Chukha-Trok singlehandedly fended off the Gorax, allowing the rest of the group to escape. This sacrifice resulted in the Ewok being mortally wounded by the Gorax, and he died in Mace's arms. As a parting gift, Chukha-Trok gave the young human his axe, which he used to ultimately defeat and kill the Gorax, avenging his friend.
