Total/Available XP: 175/0 History: Hewchabach, or Hewie, was born on Nar Bo Sholla in Hutt Space to a Wookiee slave family and became a technician when his owner saw his talent in fixing items around his compound. Hewie was almost beaten to death a young age when he was defiant at being separated from his family and sold to an outlaw tech on Nar Shaddaa. After serving several years working in the shop Hewie was again sold when the outlaw tech he was under died of old age. Hewie then found himself working as a mechanic for the Merson pirates repairing ships damaged in raids. In 55 BBY Hewie found freedom when he was rescued by a team of Jedi who were defending a convoy of freighters the pirates attacked. Finding freedom Hewie traveled the galaxy offering his skills in repairs for passage. Hewies finally came to Kashyyk but did not stay long as he didn't feel comfortable on his ancestral homeworld. Packing his things after a stay of a year on Kashyyk Hewie bid his family farewell and headed out for the stars again, this time with a goal: To find Wookiee family members still enslaved. He knows that he has Two older brothers and a younger sister as well as his parents still under the thumb of slave owners and he intends to free them! Now he has joined up on a tramp freighter crew to earn credits and have travel to find his family. |
Gender: Male
Age: 183 Height: 7' 2" (2.18 Meters) Build: Medium Hair: Brown Eyes: Blue Notable features: Hewie has a patch of fur missing on his back from a beating he had as a youth. Hewie is a pre-generated character I was given when playing at the 'May the Forth Be With You' event at Fantasy Flight Games. He was first used in an adventure run by Sterling Hershey that took place on The Wheel. He then adventured on in the adventure at the back of the Core Rule Book.
I really liked this pre-gen and decided to keep him as one of my characters in the game. He was also the first Wookiee I played in a Star Wars RPG. My favorite moment with Hewie was when I mosh pitted him from a floating cargo hauler into a group of Trandoshans on The Wheel. It was then that I knew I had my character. I worked his history after the event and hope to have more memorable adventures with him. |
