Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.
At some point by 2 ABY, at least two Galactic Empire personnel executed an enslavement raid, capturing several Wookiees and killing at least one—Zherriak—in the process. However, the group of imprisoned Wookiees overpowered the Imperials who had taken them, commandeering their starship by force. Though most of the Wookiees opted to return to their home—the planet Kashyyyk—in the stolen ship, the Wookiee Liak instead chose to join the Rebel Alliance to fight the Empire and avenge his close friend Zherriak.
