Half of our home moon, the Forest moon of Tana (Or as you outsiders call it, Endor (yes, the gas giant's name is Endor, and the forest moon is also called Endor. We didn't name the planet Endor. We called it Tana!) was destroyed when huge chunks of debris rained down when Luke Skywalker destroyed the deathstar. Many of Endor's inhabitants actually sought refuge in much of the imperial troops former occupied space, as it provided excellent protection from the hellscape that our planet was turning into.
Many of our brethren now make a living farming Caf. Turns our off-worlders are absolutely batty for the stuff. The new, slightly harsher climate of the forest moon of Endor (Look, I'm just going to call it Endor, ok? I'm sick of saying "The forest moon of Endor" every time) is perfect for growing the stuff.
Anyway, I digress, sorry about that. Like I said, Endor (See!! No forest moon of Endor stuff anymore...) was going through some severe climate change. Wouldn't you know it, though?! This new species that was previously kinda mean, but no so mean anymore...I think they are called the Vong? Anyway, a small coalition of Ewoks left to go to Ossus, to seek help from the Galactic Alliance to speak with the Vong, on behalf of the Ewoks of Endor (the forest moon, not the gas giant) to use some of their cool terraforming technology to return Endor (again, just the moon, not the gas giant we call Tana) back to the way it was before the death star rained hell upon us.
While there, there was a MASSIVE uprising of the G.E. and many of the Jedi were killed off on Ossus. Most of the ambassadors from Endor (the moon) were caught up in the fighting and were sold to slavery or worse. My clan gran matron hid in a vent behind a grate. She overheard that the delegation was to be made into Ewok Jerky and they would fetch a fine price from Chef Borkus. I don't know who Borkus is, but if I ever meet him I swear I'll turn his limbs into jerky and eat them in front of him.
Anyway, my gran matron snuck aboard an outgoing cargo vessle called The Dalliance. She had to switch ships a few times; thankfully her charisma and cute face got her through a lot of tight jams what with not having many credits. It took her years. YEARS to get home to Endor (moon).
Oh, my backstory? My matron and grand matron heard that the Galactic Alliance was trying to form a stronger coalition of the outer rim planets (Endor, the gas giant, the one we call Tana, and Endor moon forest) were to be included in this alliance, and they didn't want to be forgotten. After all, without Ewoks, there would have been no success for the rebellion at all! PRAISE WICKETT W WARRWIC!!
My matron and curiously old gran matron (she attributes her long life to drinking GALLONS of Caf a day) decided to send a delegation of our most charismatic to the Galactic Alliance secret meeting. No idea how they knew where the meeting was to take place... maybe my gran matron is force sensitive? So they sent me and a few others. The other's met up with Admiral Gar Stazi while I was pulled aside by the curious T'han. He and I chatted it up, and were soon met with Jedi Clampett and that foul mouthed Doug called Jelbis. I've learned some cool new ways of the force with these people, so I see no reason to stick around!
