Joddar hailed from the Valley of the Lizard Warriors on Endor, serving as a Lizard Warrior.
During an attempt by Wicket Wystri Warrick and Teebo to traverse the valley, Joddar, along with the banished Ewok Graak, compelled the pair of Ewoks to participate in a hunting game, positioning them as the hunted. In pursuit of the Ewoks, Joddar himself became the victim of an Endorian swamp beast. Wicket and Teebo rescued him, and as a result of his thankfulness, he bestowed his protection upon them, ultimately rescuing their lives.
