This young Ewok helps the Rebel forces during the monumental Battle of Endor. Wicket W. Warrick is the youngest son of Ewoks Shodu and Deej. Wicket has always shown a greater-than-usual curiosity to explore the unknown.
When Imperials first come to Endor, the Ewoks are alarmed. Many want to declare war on them, but the Ewok leader, Chief Chirpa, reminds them that their spears couldn't hurt the Imperial fortresses, and that the invaders have machines that can fly through the air or burn the forests. But one night, as the villagers gather around the fires, young Wicket recounts how he had witnessed an AT-ST "walker" stumble on the rocks, fall, and explode. So the Ewoks do have a way to fight back, and they start preparing for battle.
While on a foraging expedition, Wicket comes across an unconscious Princess Leia Organa, who has been thrown off a speeder bike during a chase with Biker Scouts. Although she initially spooks him, Wicket senses her innate goodness. He returns with her to the village, only to find that Leia's companions have been captured in an Ewok hunting net.
Even though Wicket pleads their case to Chief Chirpa, it takes some Jedi tricks from Luke Skywalker to free the rebels. Wicket then is a major factor in convincing the tribe to help the Rebels try to blow up the shield generator protecting the second Death Star.
