Babu Frik: I IDENTIFY AS A WOOKIEE!

In a stunning announcement, droidsmith Babu Frik has addressed recent rumors by stating that he identifies as a Wookiee.


The tiniest of the Spice Runners of Kijimi, Frik came to notoriety by playing a key role in the events that led to the defeat of Sheev Palpatine’s Final Order in the Battle of Exegol late last year.

Frik’s species orientation had come into question in recent weeks after being spotted on several occasions wearing only what appeared to be a tiny fur body suit. Speculation was further fueled when, as reported by FSW two days ago, public records showed the popular Anzellan had attempted to purchase residential property on Kashyyyk.

When questioned by FSW about these rumors, Frik, speaking through an interpreter, said “Heeeeyyyy! I’m a just a big guy at heart, you know?” Pressed further, Frik added, “Look, I have just always known, since back when I was a little, little boy, that inside, I’m all Wookiee.”

As for whether Frik will seek species-reassignment surgery, the future is unclear. Upon being asked, the “littlest Wookiee” emitted a series of indecipherable sounds that had even the interpreter shaking her head.


FSW reached out to Zorri Bliss to ask how this news might affect the Spice Runners of Kijimi and their anticipated tour of the Outer Rim planets. However, we received no response prior to our publication deadline.
