Biography
"Hey, did you hear about the bounty hunter that came in with Solo's Wookiee last night?" "Bounty hunter?" "Turned out to be some girl. Now Jabba has her chained to his throne. Real pretty one, too. And feisty. She'll be down here in the pit before the end of the week like that green wench from yesterday."

- Cherok and Malakili, on Leia Organa

Cherok served as a chief of the palace guards in Jabba's Palace on Tatooine. He intimidated the beast master and rancor-keeper Malakili with his size, and came to his hovel to check on Malakili's upkeep of the rancor pit.

On the morning after Malakili rescued the Twi'lek slave girl Oola from the rancor, Cherok stopped by his hovel to ask whether he had finished cleaning the beast's pit. Believing he heard another voice in the hovel, Cherok questioned Malakili, unaware that he was hiding Oola beneath his bed, but was distracted from his inquiry when Malakili spoke of his helper visiting Porcellus's kitchen. Cherok went on to discuss the arrival of a bounty hunter arriving with a Wookiee, only to be unmasked as a pretty female who was enslaved at Jabba's side. Cherok invited Malakili to join his guards for some grog, and left the rancor-keeper to tend to his animal.

Description
"Alright, but later on why don't you come on upstairs and have some grog with us guards. It's better than hanging around down here all the time with that smelly animal."

- Cherok, to Malakili on Jabba's rancor

Cherok was a male Human, dark-skinned with a beard, standing at nearly two feet taller than Malakili, who was intimidated by his size. He had rotted yellow teeth and a rough-sounding voice, speaking with a grunting tone.
