Born in 249 BBY, on Kashyyk, Karracca is considered late middle aged or even elderly for a wookie. He was identified as a force sensitive youngling at the age of 7, and his father had asked the Jedi to teach him the ways of the force. He was made a Padawan at the age of 12, apprenticing under Grand Master Yoda. He was made a Knight at the age of 28, and served honorably until the years leading up to the Clone Wars.
During and in the decades after the establishment of the Empire served as a consultant and a diplomat mostly, through he also dabbled in mercenary work from time to time, always aligning himself with the Rebels, the Alliance and later the Republic. He helped rally wookies from all over the galaxy when his friend Chewie and Lando put out the call during the Battle of Exogol. Little else of note occurred until the ABY 40s, when he was sent on a mission with a secular Jedi named Kalen.
“My finest or worst Padawan he is not. More then any other, the one who forced me to challenge my own notions of right and wrong, that, yes Karracca is.” Master Yoda speaking of Karracca after the Battle of Kashyyk.
Character History
Though never elevated to the rank of Master he was regarded as one of finest strategists and mission planners in the Order in the 50s and 40s BBY. By BBY 33 Karracca had become disillusioned by the decay, hubris and indifference of the High Council, led by his former Master. He left the Jedi Order on honorable terms after a heated argument with the High Council. During a Council session where he was asked to speak on a strategy matter he had arose and supported Qui Gon Jinns push to find ‘the one’ and reform the Jedi's inward looking policies, beginning an argument that ended with Karracca leaving the Order.
Yoda and Karracca did overcome their differences mere hours before the Battle of Kashyyyk. He had been in a tree top overwatch position, helping coordinate the defense of Kachirho tree city on Kashyyyk when the infamous Order 66 had been issued. Karracca had avoided the fate of most other Jedi at the time, because he had left the order 14 years before. Also, due to his position in the tree cities canopy, the Clone troopers never encountered him.
From that point on he worked as a private contractor and consultant for nearly half a century before taking on a role as a coordinator and diplomat for the Brotherhood and later being hired by House Ventress. He was then brought in to help stand up their Envoy Cadre.
Though Karra still considers himself a Jedi at heart, he hasn't claimed the title publicly in over 70 years. Many wookies will know his name if not his chubby cheeked face. He rarely if ever admits to feeling old, and often claims that the fountain of youth resides in a consistent regiment of frequent naps.
When not found napping he was usually working as an advisor, consultant, or contractor for various friends throughout the Brotherhood. He is nearing retirement though and before incurring his life debt, he had been considering retiring.
“Do not fear Jedi Joss, I am an old wookie, and my life debt may not be worth much or last very long.” Karracca to Kalen Joss, ca ABY 43.
