Lumat was a gray-furred Ewok who helped the Rebellion defeat the Galactic Empire in the Battle of Endor.[1] He was married to Zephee and was the father of Latara, Nippet, and Wiley. In his tribe on the forest moon of Endor, he was the chief woodcutter,[2] an archer, a woodcarver, and an elder advisor to tribe chief Chirpa.[3] Lumat was named for the legendary axe wielded by Machook in Ewok mythology.[4]
Lumat carried a bow and spear, and wore a brown hood and sash-mounted quiver in which he stored arrows.[5]
Behind the scenes[]
Lumat was made into an action figure by Kenner in 1984. Upon his initial release, he was in a Return of the Jedi packaged with a bow and one–piece quiver, hood, and sash. The second release, on Power of the Force packaging, added a coin to his accessories.[6] In 2012 Lumat received his second figure in the Star Wars: The Vintage Collection line, now including a spear and three arrows, in addition to updated versions[5] of his original accessories.[6]

Graak, once known as Lumat
While the action figure shows Lumat to be an Ewok with solid gray fur,[6] his Customizable Card Game (CCG) card pictured an Ewok with black and gray striped fur,[3] later identified as Graak.[7] Hasbro's Graak figure, released in 2007, depicts both Lumat and Graak on its packaging, and bears Graak's black and gray colors,[8] matching that of the "Lumat" CCG card.[3] "Rogues Gallery: The Ewoks: Warriors of Endor!" in Star Wars Insider 135 established that Lumat was indeed the Ewok from the Kenner figure and not the CCG card.
Lumat can be seen in the Special Edition DVD of Return of the Jedi at frame 1:12:32.
