Legend

a Wookiee enslaved and sent to work at an Imperial base on Endor, Groznik was forced to load ordnance on supply shuttles. When a group of freedom fighters, led by Throm Elscol, raided the base, Groznik went wild and started killing an Imperial in sight. Throm rescued the Wookiee before the Imperials could shoot him, and Groznik initiated a life-debt to Throm. The two returned to Cilpar, and continued to fight against th Imperial presence there. When Throm was killed in a battle with the Imperials on Cilpar, Groznik's debt passed to Elscol. He remained by Elscol's side through the liberation of Cilpar and during the negotiations for the Phantom Project on Mrlsst. However, Groznik was tricked into believing the ghost Jedi of Mrlsst was really Throm Loro, and was lured to Professor Falken's lab. During the New Republic's attempt to rescue Professor Falken's asteroid lab from Imperial control, Groznik remained on the lab and kept Loka Hask at bay while Rogue Squadron used the gravitic polarization beam to eliminate Hask's Interdictor-class cruiser. The device exploded, taking the lab - and Groznik - with it. A statue of the heroic Wookiee was erected in the campus of Mrlsst's Academy, in honor of his actions.
