The Wookiees
Wookiees are devoted, loyal friends and are very distrustful of strangers.
Life debt is sacred to Wookiees.
Despite a fearsome appearance and temperamental disposition, Wookiees are shown to be very intelligent and are very adept at handling advanced technology.
Chewbacca is co-pilot of and performs maintenance on the Millennium Falcon, and also possessed a working knowledge of robotics, managing to rather haphazardly reassemble C-3PO after the latter was destroyed by Imperial Stormtroopers.
Wookiees are fast learners; Chewbacca commandeers an Imperial AT-ST during the Battle of Endor and is shown effectively maneuvering the machine and operating its weapons systems.
They are masters of fusion-cutting.
Wookiees greatly value morality, courage, compassion and loyalty.
A sacred and ancient Wookiee tradition is that of the honor family.
An honor family comprises a Wookiee's closest friends and companions.
These family members pledge a commitment to lay down their lives for one another, as well as members of any honor families these individuals may have.
Like the similarly sacred Wookiee life debt, Wookiees are willing to extend this tradition to members outside their species.
Chewbacca considered Han Solo, Leia Organa Solo, their children, and Luke Skywalker part of his honor family.
Wookiees have an understanding of Star Wars–universe warfare and fought alongside Republic Forces during the Clone Wars.
Wookiees were betrayed and enslaved shortly after that conflict.
Some Wookiees are sensitive to the Force. One such Wookiee is Lowbacca, Chewbacca's nephew, from the book series Young Jedi Knights.
