Paploo was an Ewok from the forest moon of Endor. He was the nephew of Chief Chirpa and a close friend of Wicket W. Warrick. He had brown colored fur and wore a cream colored hood. Paploo played an important role in the Battle of Endor. As the Rebel strike team made its way towards its goal of destroying the Endor Shield Bunker, which protected the Empire's Death Star II, Paploo stole a speeder bike from one of the guards, thus creating a distraction. This distraction gave the Rebels an opportunity to strike, and the team succeeded in destroying the second Death Star.
