      Gungi! It’s even mentioned in TCW series and Bad Batch that, while incredibly rare, there have been several accounts of Wookie force users through the millenia. Would love to see a series set 100yrs or so after the OT of Gungi helping to re-establish or expand a new galactic Jedi Order as a threat from the Void threatens the stability of the galaxy - with the wisdom of Yoda but without the complacency due to his experience coming of age in TCW and the Galactic Civil War

    It is a thing. The only species I know of that has never been force sensitive are toydarians, the species of Watto. Star Wars I guess is really trying to drive home the point about their species being some kind of interfaith commentary.

      I was at a Geek Prom and there was a fantasy/sci-fi spelling bee and somehow I made it to the final round (? not sure but it was close) and they said, “Your word is ‘wookiee’.”

      Now, I’ve been a hardcore Star Wars fanatic forever, and knowing that I, quick as a flash, upzipped my coveralls to reveal my super tight X-Wing pilot shirt on, belted out, “W-O-O-K-I-E!!” and looked at the moderator as he looked at me and then he said, “I’m sorry, that’s wrong. It’s, ‘w-o-o-k-i-e-e’.”

      I turned beat red and slunk back to my seat embarrassed as I could be.

    Terrifying and I would be surprised if they didn’t go dark side, all that primal rage does not a Jedi make.
