Latara Latara was a female Ewok , and Princess Kneesaa ' s best friend . The two spent the majority of their time together . She was the sister of Nippet and Wiley . She became a hoodmaker apprentice , and often played music from her flute , which her friends Wicket Wystri Warrick and Teebo . Latara , who craved attention , sometimes acted like a princess . Later , she wanted to join the Travelling Jindas so badly that she left Bright Tree Village and went with them , although she soon returned to the village . Biography . Ewok - Dulok War . Battle of the Tree of Light . As per usual , the Tree of Light ' s started to dwindle , and Chief Chirpa dispatched a band of Ewoks to rejuvenate it with sacred Light Dust . Wicket was held back , due to age , and Kneesaa , who desperately wanted to join the group , was forbidden by her father , on grounds of gender . However , Wicket was able to steal away , and catch up with the group , and Kneesaa , with Latara in tow , followed close behind . Hoping to reach the group in the Arbo Maze , Latara and Kneesaa ventured into the treacherous caverns , and were set upon by the Dulok Umwak and his nephew . Using her smarts , Kneesaa was able to outsmart the shaman and cause the two of them to entrap each other in a net of Denga fat . The group reluctantly allowed the two girls to join , and together , they escaped the maze . But at the Valley of Floating Trees , near the Mountain of Light , the group was intercepted by King Gorneesh ' s army , who had the Ewoks bound and stranded , while they moved on to destroy the tree . Wicket and Kneesaa were able to escape at the last moment , and stow away on the King ' s floating tree . The others , including Latara , eventually broke free of their restraints , and resumed their original course to the mountain . There , they charged at the Dulok force , so as to allow Wicket to sprinkle the dust on the tree , restoring it to its former glory . The Duloks fled , and upon the Ewoks return to Bright Tree Village , Latara , Wicket , and Kneesaa with decorated with the Silver Feather of Bravery . Attack of the Thorns . One day , when Latara was raving with other Ewoks such as Wiley , Paploo , Teebo , and Wicket , Kneesaa was stuck inside the Logray ' s Hut , practicing the Three Lessons . She accidentally spilt some of Master Logray ' s plant growth formula on a Stranglethorn . The plant began to take over all of Bright Tree , and apparently , Latara ' s dancing came to a halt . Though she was absent from the disaster , she came out safe and sound on the other end . Odra Crisis and the Coalition of the Freezing . While sunbathing down by a river ( possibly the Yarlubb ) , Latara was drenched with water due to the antics of Wicket . Teebo , embarrassed that he had caused such a fuss , attempted to summon a mighty wind to cleanse Latara of her moistness . Instead , the Snow King , miles away in the Snow Palace , coincidentally used the Season scepter to bring about a perpetual winter . Teebo , who believed that he had caused the devastating snow , went into a state of shock and denial , as he followed Latara , and their companions Warrick and the Princess , back to Bright Tree . Upon reaching Bright Tree , the group found the village all but abandoned . Many of the Ewoks had been caught out in the blizzard , trapped , and unable to return . Others were snowed into their houses . Teebo , seeking to find a remedy for his " mistake , " sought out Logray in his hut , but the elderly shaman was nowhere to be found . As Teebo , Latara , Warrick , and Kneesaa were rummaging , the Sunstar began to glow , carrying a transmission from the Sun Palace . It was the Leaf Queen , imploring Logray to journey to the Palace to help the Coalition of the Freezing stop Odra , Duchess of Sleet , who had seduced the Snow King , and convinced him to commence the blizzard . Accepting the message on behalf of the absent Logray , Teebo and his companions set off for the Sun Palace in a flying leaf . En route to the Palace , however , the foursome was ambushed by the Snow King ' s Ice Head Commandos , who were able to capture Kneesaa . Latara , Warrick , and Teebo were caught in an avalanche , which effectively brought them to the Sun Palace . Inside , they were met by the Coalition of the Freezing High Command : the Sun King , the Flower Queen , and the chairperson , the Leaf Queen . Explaining that the winter was not a result of Teebo ' s magic , the Leaf Queen and the Sun King related the tale of the Season scepter ' s robbery from the Sun Palace . Disappointed that Warrick had not brought the Sunstar with him to stop Sleet , the young Ewoks took it upon themselves to enter into espionage on behalf of the Coalition . Upon reaching the Snow Palace , the Ewoks found it surrounded with Ice Heads , and were unable to penetrate the defenses . Warrick took action , fabricating Ice Head disguises for the threesome , and they set off into the palace . When they reached the throne room , Warrick continued his charade by pretending to sell ice - on - a - stick , but his ruse was seen through by Sleet . She alerted the guards , and the Skirmish at the Snow Palace ensued . During the fighting , Latara was imprisoned , and was cut off from the rest of the battle . The Snow King was eventually freed from Sleet ' s grasp , and he returned Endor to its natural state . Wokling minder . When the Bright Tree Fête came about , Latara was charged with minding woklings , much to her discontent . Coincidentally , Warrick and Teebo had suffered the same fate , and had been forced to view the entertainment stylings of the Tumble bunny trainer . Upon seeing the show , Latara backed away in horror , bumping into her cohorts . She supported Warrick in his vocal and extended attack on the Tumble bunny trainer ' s show , though this was met with disapproval from Princess Kneesaa . Warrick found alternate entertainment for the group in Horville ' s Hut of Horrors . Latara , against better judgment , escorted her wokling into the attraction , but soon regretted it . The wokling was thrown into a state of shock , but Warrick found a solution in which the four of them would avoid retribution from their parents : They would host a slumber party for the woklings . Despite constant servings of sunberry pie , the woklings ' lust for tumble bunnies was not slaked . Eventually , Teebo utilized his elite shaman skills and created a Dream eater , and the woklings slept a restful night without mishap . Her duties fulfilled , Latara attended Warrick ' s own rendition of the Tumble bunny trainer ' s show , though it held no interest for her , and set her to sleep . Prisoner of Elbo . While fishing one day , Kneesaa lost her anklet in the Endor Sea . Her mishap summoned King Elbo , a mighty monarch , who decided to help her . He offered her two golden , jewel - encrusted anklets , but Kneesaa declined , claiming that they were not her anklets . When Elbo recovered her real anklet , she accepted without inquiring about the other two , which touched Elbo . He gave her all three anklets in appreciation of her selflessness . When Latara heard Kneesaa ' s story , her eyes spun at the idea of a jewel encrusted , golden flute to replace the wooden one Teebo and Warrick had made for her . Her demands and aspirations , however , appalled Warrick and Kneesaa , and deeply offended Teebo . Disgruntled , Latara set out for the sea all on her lonesome . When she reached the sea , she " dropped " her flute into the water , summoning Elbo . When Elbo presented her with a golden , shining flute , Latara at first gawked , then accepted the flute , but quickly doubled back on her admission , believing that the elaborate instrument might not be hers . Elbo produced a second flute , as decorative as the first , which caused Latara to lose all semblance of control . Driven insane by the beauty of the instruments , Latara lusted after both , spelling out repetitive demands to Elbo . Needless to say , the great King was dismayed by the ewoks greed . Just as her friends , Warrick , Teebo and Kneesaa came to check up on her , the King threw the aspiring entertainer into a hatch at the top of his shell and dragged the helpless Latara to the depths of the Endor Sea . In Elbo ' s Castle , Latara was placed in a cage formed by a diligent squid who would stand still , using his tentacles as bars . Eventually Teebo and company came to her aid , engaging in a short scuffle with the squid , and freeing her of his dedicated watch , but they were foiled in their escape by the coincidental placement of a booby - trap by Elbo . Kneesaa offered the three anklets in exchange for their freedom , and while Elbo did not let them go , he was once again touched by the Princess ' kindness . He devised a test for Latara , in which she would venture through a cave filled with all manners of treasure , and bring back the item of the highest value back to Elbo . At first , she was besotted with all the items , truly believing that they were all as valuable as one another . She stumbled across her old , wooden flute , and at first dismissed it , before recalling the hurt looks on Wicket and Kneesaa before , and the devastated look of love lost on Teebo ' s face . She realized that the friendship was the most valuable gift of all , and returned to Elbo . Satisfied , the fangly King freed his captives , and , in turn , Latara planted a kiss on Teebo . The young shaman apprentice wandered off in a daze . Imperial - Ewok War . Raygar attacks . Using her veto power , Kneesaa commissioned Latara , Warrick and Teebo to accompany her on an expedition to feed a nest of baby guba s . The foursome climbed a towering tree to reach the gubas , but the chicks were not as responsive as the Princess had hoped . The group were knocked out of the tree , sending them plummeting to the base . Though none of them were injured , the Princess was deterred from helping the gubas in the future . On their way back to Bright Tree Village , the group heard the cry of a fircle . Venturing off the beaten track to investigate , they found the animal trapped in a foreign device ; a trap that they could not breach , even after attempting to lift it . While Teebo was stretching in order to prepare for a second attempt at lifting the device , his buttocks made violent contact with Latara , pushing her in the way of the mouth of the trap . The foreign device activated , sucking the hapless child into the impervious bubble , trapping her with the fircle . Teebo , seeking to right his buttock - tapping wrongs , prepared a magic spell with a dust base . Unfortunately , the dust blew into the trap , but it was able to destroy it from the inside , freeing Latara . Alerted , an Imperial Reconnaissance Droid made its way into the clearing to investigate the ruckus . It apprehended Teebo , and at the same time , Dr . Raygar , of the Galactic Empire , made his entrance on his Battlefield Subjugation Floatie , stunned the Princess , and demanded the location of Bright Tree Village and the Sunstar from Warrick and Latara . Though the Princess urged them not to tell , Warrick caved , and gave Raygar accurate directions . Pleased , Raygar had his droids capture all four Ewoks , and have them taken back to his ship . Latara and the others were thrown into a holding cell on Raygar ' s ship , while Raygar set off with two of his recon droids to recover the Sunstar . When Raygar ' s pilot droid , PD - 28 attempted to bring the children some victuals , the remaining recon droid barred his entrance , leaving Latara and her friends to starve . But PD was able to find an alternate route , and was able to nourish the captives . Warrick then convinced the diminutive droid to aid them in the escape , and PD led them to a shuttle pod . The young Ewoks accidentally activated the craft , rocketing them towards Bright Tree Village . Unfortunately , Latara and her companions arrived too late . Raygar ' s forces had decimated the Ewok resistance , and the Doctor himself had wrested control of the Sunstar from Logray . As Latara and her companions landed , Raygar took off in his shuttle , spiriting away the Sunstar to Admiral Kazz ' s Star Destroyer . The Ewoks , shattered by the defeat , were naturally curious about the pod that had returned the four children . Latara decided to impress the elders by demonstrating her technical aptitude with the device , in the process accidentally activating it and sending her and her companions into the Endor system . In pursuit of the Sunstar . Raygar made it to the Star Destroyer without incident , but the Ewoks were hot on his heels . Upon landing , the Imperials captured PD , but the Ewoks were able to escape their grasp . Warrick resolved to help PD , and delegated the task of reclaiming the Sunstar to Latara and Teebo . The only flaw with Warrick ' s plan was the obvious physical discrepancy between the Ewoks and the other denizens of the ship , so Latara devised a plan . She cobbled together droid disguises for both her and her companions , and made their way towards Raygar ' s laboratory . During their journey , Teebo was accosted by an MSE - series mouse droid , but was saved by Latara and her abrasive attitude towards the foreign droid . They eventually found their way to Raygar ' s lab , where the Doctor himself was ranting and raving to himself about how he would be able to use the Sunstar to assassinate Galactic Emperor Palpatine . When he had finished his musing , Latara and Teebo accidentally knocked over a stack of Raygar ' s equipment . They attempted to shrug off the disaster by declaring themselves Imperial droids , but Raygar bought none of it . Striking the duo with the Sunstar and incapacitating them , he then left them alone in order for them to watch him construct a brand new superweapon with the Sunstar ' s powers . He then placed them in an escape pod , fired them out into space , for him to use as target practice . But before he could target properly , Warrick , Kneesaa , and PD barged into his room , and retrieved the Sunstar . They then escaped in their shuttle pod , picking up Latara and Teebo ' s escape pod on the way . The Sunstar returned , PD decided to return to his people in the hopes of finding his old master . As the diminutive droid jetted away from the Ewoks , Latara realized that she had learned a valuable lesson about helping those less fortunate . Behind the scenes .
