Malla was the wife of Chewbacca and the mother of Lumpawaroo. During the Imperial Era, Malla and her family were enslaved by the Empire. She and her son were put in an Imperial slave camp on Kashyyyk. At some point, Malla was separated from her son Lumpawaroo, who became a child slave in Commandant Dessard's camp on the slopes of Mount Arayakyak. Her husband Chewbacca ended up as a slave on the planet Mimban until he was rescued by Han Solo, a renegade Imperial Mud trooper.
During the Galactic Civil War that pitted the Galactic Empire against the Alliance to Restore the Republic, Chewbacca was traveling with Solo, away from Malla and the rest of his family on Kashyyyk.
