Cham Cham

Cham Cham was the cru pet to the Force-sensitive Zeen Mrala, who she had kept from an early age. Mrala's parents had left her when she was young, so she relied on Cham Cham and her friend Krix Kamerat to look out for her.

During the High Republic Era, Cham Cham resided on the planet Trymant IV with Mrala and Kamerat. Cham Cham was with Mrala and Kamerat when they were evacuating during a cataclysm from the Great Hyperspace Disaster. She carried Cham Cham as they ran from a Nihil Spider Cruiser. She then quickly hid with Cham Cham from Nihil marauders. Cham Cham then accompanied his owner as they attempted to stop the Nihil attack with the help of Jedi padawans.

As the battle raged between the Nihil and the Jedi, Jedi Master Yoda asked Mrala to allow him to borrow Cham Cham to sneak onto the Nihil cruiser and rescue Kamerat. Cham Cham looked back on his owner with worrying eyes as Yoda took him along for the adventure.

Yoda and Cham Cham snuck past the leader of the Nihil, Marchion Ro and aboard the Spider Cruiser. They surprised Kamerat, and handed him a holoprojector to use to track him. Kamerat was also surprised to see Cham Cham with Yoda but saw it as proof that Mrala had lied to him. He then called out to everyone on board that he had found Yoda, so the Jedi master took off with Cham Cham. As they hid behind crates, Yoda opened up a case with an artifact owned by Ro. As Nihil personnel approached them, Cham Cham attacked a Nihil and bit off their fingers and arm.

Yoda and Cham Cham managed to escape from the Nihil ship as the Jedi won the battle. Cham Cham was sleeping when Yoda returned him to Mrala, who was shocked that he ate part of a Nihil. Cham Cham continued to rest as Mrala joined the rest of the Jedi on the Starlight Beacon.

A week later, Cham Cham rested with Mrala as she viewed a message from Kamerat, who was still very angry with her. During their stay, Cham Cham played with the Jedi younglings, who were very excited to see him fly.

One day, Padawan Lula Talisola visited Mrala and snuggled Cham Cham. She alerted Mrala to the arrival of the Jedi Masters, who wanted to discuss her future. As the masters talked to Mrala, Cham Cham continued to play with the Younglings.

After Kamerat contacted Mrala, while the Jedi were trying to find the Nihils, telling her that he wanted to meet her, Mrala left the Jedi outpost to see Kamerat leaving Cham Cham behind. As Lula and the Jedi Padawans came into Mrala's room, they noticed that she was gone and started examining her room, finding a holoprojector with a message on it. The message explained that Mrala was gone to save her friend but that she would come back. They didn't believe she would be gone forever, even because she left Cham Cham behind. The cru then leaped up and jumped on Padawan Qort's head. Qort tried to move Cham Cham off his head but to no avail. As the Padawans prepared to leave and help Mrala, Cham Cham squeezed in with them as they all crammed into the last remaining Jedi Vector and took off.

After the Jedi fought against the Nihils and returned from Quantxi with Mrala, she was reunited with Cham Cham. Cham Cham was in her arms when the Jedi asked her again if she wished to remain at the Starlight Beacon.
