"You wouldn't survive an hour out there, little brother, not without running back to Mother with a dripping nose and frozen toes."
―Weechee[1]

Wicket's mother was an Ewok female. They and the Ewok Deej were the parents of four children: Weechee, Widdle Warrick, Wicket Wystri Warrick, and Winda. The mother encouraged Wicket to try new foods and spent time with their family in Bright Tree Village.

Biography

"If you don't try it, how do you know you won't like it?"
―Wicket's mother, to Wicket[4]

Wicket's mother[4] was an Ewok female that was the mother of Wicket Wystri Warrick,[1] who was born in 7 BBY.[5] A part of Bright Tree tribe in Bright Tree Village on the Forest Moon of Endor, the Ewok, along with the Ewok Deej, parented four children: Weechee,[1] Widdle Warrick,[3] Wicket Warrick, and Winda.[1] The mother encouraged Wicket to try new foods, indicating[4] he[1] might not know he liked something without trying it.[4]

One winter[1] between 1 BBY and 4 ABY,[6] when food was scarce, Wicket used his mother's ground-apple stock to thicken a stew's broth. That winter, Weechee also noted to Wicket that he did not think the young Ewok could survive an hour without running back to his mother.[1]

Shortly after the Battle of Endor[2] in 4 ABY,[7] some of the Bright Tree tribe, including the mother, held a gathering with the tribe's neighbors in Bright Tree Village to decide the forest's future, in which the Ewok spent time with their family.[2]

Personality and traits

The mother had light gray fur.[2]

Equipment

On Endor, the Ewok donned a red cowl.[2]

  6. Star Wars Adventures: Tales from Vader's Castle 4 depicts Logray before he became shaman of the Bright Tree tribe and is dated to 1 BBY by Star Wars: Timelines. "One Normal Day" depicts Wicket Wystri Warrick as no longer being a wokling and takes place and occurs concurrent with the events of Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi, which Timelines dates to 4 ABY. As "The Kroolok" depicts Logray as a shaman and Warrick as a wokling, it must take place between these two dates.
