Biography . A male Wookiee , Krepauk was the Huntmaster of the Rryatt Trail — a large hunting trail located near the city of Rwookrrorro on the planet Kashyyyk — during the Galactic Civil War . As Huntmaster , it was Krepauk ' s job to test the hunting skills and honor of any traveler that approached him by providing them with a variety of hunts . Many of Krepauk ' s hunts of Kashyyyk ' s native fauna were quite dangerous ; not everyone that participated in the Huntmasters ' quests survived , and many more would be overwhelmed by the hunts , becoming insane and feral . Sometime after the Battle of Yavin , Krepauk encountered a spacer journeying through the Rryatt Trail . Krepauk greeted the spacer and , upon informing the traveler about his profession and the many hunts available on the trail , asked if the traveler was interested in participating in one of his trials . The spacer accepted Krepauk ' s challenge and was soon tasked with hunting down sixteen walluga skullsmashers , large , powerful creatures native to Kashyyyk . The spacer departed and soon returned , having completed the errand . Krepauk congratulated the spacer on completing his first challenge and gave him 5 , 000 credits as a reward . Krepauk then tasked the spacer with finding and killing the Dark Jedi Urootar . Krepauk explained that Urootar , a former Jedi who had managed to survive the Great Jedi Purge , had become mad over the years and was now a danger to the trails ' travelers . Before the spacer left Krepauk , the Huntmaster warned that Urootar still knew some tricks with the Force and would be a more difficult task than the last . After the spacer managed to defeat Urootar , Krepauk , impressed by the spacers ' skills , rewarded the being with another 7 , 500 credits . The Huntmaster gave the traveler an even more dangerous task of hunting down and kill twenty - four feral Wookiees . Krepauk , saddened by the Wookiees ' suffering , wanted the spacer to kill them to alleviate their pain and insanity . The spacer eliminated the Wookiees , and returned to Krepauk . Krepauk thanked the spacer for killing the feral Wookiees , believing it to be a painful but necessary task , and gave the traveler another 10 , 000 credits . Krepauk then wanted the spacer to slay twenty - four deadly simian predators known as minstyngar — a hunt more hazardous than the previous three . The spacer eliminated the minstyngar , and Krepauk , now realizing that the spacer truly was a masterful hunter , gave the being a reward of 15 , 000 credits and a hunting mount of a minstnygar ' s head . Krepauk also assigned the spacer one last hunt , tasking the spacer with killing a katarn , one of the most savage and lethal predators on Kashyyyk . Since this was by far the most perilous task , Krepauk warned that it would take the spacer ' s utmost skill and ability to defeat a katarn , and that the spacer would likely need a few companions to help kill the beast . The spacer managed to slay the katarn after a difficult fight , and the Huntmaster congratulated the spacer , declaring that the being was now one of the greatest hunters on all of Kashyyyk . For completing all of his hunts , Krepauk presented the traveler 25 , 000 credits , a hunting mount of the katarn ' s head , and the knuckles of the katarn fashioned into a powerful blade . Personality and traits . Krepauk took a great deal of pride in the Rryatt trail hunts , believing that they were an important part of Wookiee culture . He also offered advice to the spacer that accepted his different challenges , warning of their danger and informing the spacer where the prey would likely be found . Krepauk was also deeply saddened when he asked the spacer to kill the twenty - four feral Wookiees , but knew that they had become a danger to the trail and that the crazed Wookiees needed to be slain to end their suffering . Krepauk was covered in brown hair , had black eyes , and spoke the Shyriiwook language . Behind the scenes . Krepauk made his first and only appearance in canon in the 2005 " Star Wars Galaxies " expansion pack " " , wherein the Huntmaster had a series of quests , known as the " Rryatt Trail Trials , " that the player could participate in . Although the player could choose not to do the " Rryatt Trail Trial " quests , this article assumes 100 % game completion . Star Wars Galaxies was shut down on December 15 , 2011 .
