B.A. Barbacca is a Wookiee who was found as an orphan after the Battle of Kashyyyk; he served as a slave, and later soldier in the Galactic Empire. He was convicted of a crime he didn't commit by a military court, and escaped into the Coruscant underground along with fellow members of his team. He currently serves as a mercenary, while on the run from the Imperial government.
| Early Life and Imperial Service
|
| Barbacca was born on the Wookiee homeworld of Kashyyyk shortly before the start of the Clone Wars. He spent his infancy surrounded by the conflict: his father was one of the warriors who eventually went on to fight - and die - in the Battle of Kashyyyk. Barbaca was found by the Clone Troopers following the execution of Order 66, and was among the numerous Wookiee captives that eventually found themselves engaged in forced labour for the Empire.
Some time prior to the Battle of Endor, Barbacca was working at a manufacturing plant that produced components for Imperial shuttles and speeders. The specifics of the incident were never recorded, and Barbacca has never since revealed them to anyone, but it resulted in the Wookiee attacking one of his fellow slaves with his claws; in Wookiee culture, such an action is considered a heinous social crime, and thus Barbacca was ostricised from the group as a "Madclaw". After provoking several fights among his slave group, the Imperials - who didn't understand Wookiee society, and simply thought he was provoking them somehow - labelled him a "B.A." slave (for Bad Attitude) and had him removed from the work pool.
Scheduled to be "put down" because his usefulness to the Empire had run out, Barbacca was approached by the Imperial military, and offered the opportunity to redeem himself and escape his execution by serving in the military. It took some effort to convince him to cooperate with the people who had held him enslaved for his entire life, but he eventually agreed, and began to work with the Army as a mechanic and wilderness combat expert.

| On The Run
|
| Two years following the Battle of Endor, Barbacca was involved in an incident that saw him and his unit brought before a military court on Coruscant, accused of a crime that they did not commit. Despite a lack of evidence they were convicted, but managed to escape custody. Fleeing into the Coruscant underground, he and his teammates now fight as soldiers of fortune, while still on the run from the Imperial government.
