- "They'll allow anyone to fly those B-Wings. I'm surprised that..thing..can fit into the cockpit."
- ―Andrelious J. Inahj, shortly after meeting Kirrawanno
Kirrawanno, known to his friends as 'Kirra', is a Wookiee pilot serving as Commander of Devastator Squadron, which is attached to the ISDII Eye of the Abyss II, Clan Arcona's flagship.
History
Kirrawanno was born on Kashyyyk to Lumstacca and Snararro. From a young age it was clear that Kirra was interested in seeing more of the galaxy than just his homeworld. His parents did little to discourage this, although they insisted that the young Wookiee be schooled in traditional Wookiee customs first.
As Kirra reached his teenage years, things were beginning to become troubled in the galaxy. The Republic was beginning to crumble, with many starsystems beginning to secede and join a new movement.
Eventually things spilled over into the Clone Wars. Kirra, along with his parents, was involved in the Battle of Kashyyyk that took place in 19BBY.
As the clone wars ended and the Republic was replaced by the Empire. Under the Empire, the Wookiees were little more than slaves. Kirra's parents were taken and forced to work on the Death Star project. Unbeknownst to Kirra, Lumstacca and Snararro were killed days before the Battle of Yavin, when the completed Death Star fired its superlaser upon Despayre.
Eventually the Empire was defeated. For the first time, Kirra was allowed to actively pursue his dream. At first, he did not sign up for the fledgling New Republic military, but instead worked as a co-pilot for the owner of a small freighter.
The existence was not glamorous, but it provided a modest wage, and in time Kirra could afford his own ship.
