Kalabakk is an entertainer -- he has no interest in fighting.
Kalabakk's story begins the same as many Wookiees. He was born on
Kashyyyk and slowly watched his planet fall into slavery at the hands
of the Transdoshans, the Empire, and anyone else willing to place
credits above ethics.
Kalabakk and his family were enslaved and forced into hard labor.
The slavers became more and more cruel, torturing young cubs for enjoyment.
One night, Kalabakk had enough and went on a killing rampage, breaking limbs
and crushing skulls, giving the slavers a horrifying look at the power of
an enraged Wookiee. Kalabakk urged the other Wookiees to flee while he lead
the slavers and their reinforcements into the Shadow Forest. They were never
heard from again.
After making sure his family was safe, Kalabakk knew he had to leave Kashyyyk
in case the slavers came after him. He couldn't put his family in that kind of
danger, so he booked passage with a false name on a cargo ship bound for Corellia.
On the way there, the ship was boarded by Imperial forces and forced to land at
a space station. The Imperials were apparently tipped off that there was spice
on board, but found nothing of the sort. Fortunately, they did not recognize
Kalabakk, and he was given free passage to Corellia as compensation.
He decided to sharpen his hunting skills by becoming a Rifleman, but soon found
that fighting brought painful memories of the violence he had witnessed, and the
incredible violent rampage that overcame him on Kashyyyk. He swore that from
there on he would live out his life in peace. He became an Entertainer and began
playing regularly in the Doaba Guerfel cantina on Corellia, where he earned the
nickname "Boogie Wookiee". He eventually joined the Rebel Alliance, and rose
to the rank of Colonel through non-violent missions.
In his spare time, he became a Master Architect, as well as a Master CorSec pilot,
and ran a successful furniture shop on Naboo for a time. He evenutally grew tired
of the merchant life and turned his full attention to Entertaining. He attended an
event in the city of Babelon, Naboo, and fell in love with the people and the city.
He built a house there the very next day. Not long after that, he became the owner
of the Babelon Cantina, which he named the Boogie Wookiee Cafe. He became the mayor
of Babelon in April, 2005 and has held that office ever since.
