Attimun's wife

"Lost his family in the war Attimum did; enraged he was by their loss. A great tragedy"

- Yoda, after Attimun's arrest

A female Wookiee married the Wookiee general Attimun and had two children with him prior to the Clone Wars. During the War Attimun became a decorated war hero on the couples home planet of Kashyyyk, however his wife and children were all killed in this conflict. Their deaths enraged Attimun, turning him against the Galactic Republic that the Wookiees had allied with in the War and leading to his attack on the speakers at the Conference on Kashyyyk.
