Wookiees

Wookiees are widely recognized as one of the strongest and fiercest intelligent species in the galaxy. Wookiees have many customs and traditions that revolve around honor and loyalty, including the special bond called the honor family and the sacred pledge called the life debt. A Wookiee never uses his or her climbing claws in combat, doing this is considered dishonorable and a sign of madness.

Wookiees tend to be honorable, rash, loyal and short-tempered.

A Wookiee regains hit points at double the normal rate at natural healing.

Once per day, a Wookiee can fly into a rage as a swift action. While raging, the Wookiee temporarily gains a +2 rage bonus on melee attack rolls and melee damage rolls but cannot use skills that require patience and concentration, such as Mechanics, Stealth or Use the Force.

A fit of rage lasts for a number of rounds equal to 5 + the Wookiee's Constitution modifier. At the end of his rage, a Wookiee moves -1 persistent step along the condition track. The penalties imposed by this condition persist until the Wookiee takes at least 10 minutes to recuperate, during which time the Wookiee can't engage in any strenuous activity.

Wookiees treat bowcasters as rifles instead of exotic weapons.

Wookiees are great climbers and may choose to take 10 on Climb checks even when distracted or threatened. Known to pull the ears off gundarks, they may choose to reroll any Persuasion check made to intimidate others, but the new result must be accepted even if it's worse.
