How do you treat your Wookies?

This is only an issue if you want it to be. Technically most droids are also property, making them slaves as well. Nobody has any issue with droids roaming around.

In all likelihood, your Wookiee PC would have to worry about added scrutiny on the part of Imperial officials or xenophobic administrators. A Star Wars equivalent of a conceal and carry is probably out of the question, as would the IPKC bounty hunter license.

Actually a wookiee could get an IKPC point in fact Snoova had one in this era.For me it depends a wookiee without certain obligations is criminal or bounty have a document that says he is his owner.If he doesn't than Ya he would be considered a slave.Of course I also put restrictions on establishments for droids,aliens and even humans.

I think it also depends one -where- your wookie picks up his IPKC. From what I've read they are not a "one size fits all" document, but rather it licenses you to work in specific areas of the Galaxy, a wookie would have no problem picking one up in the outer rim but boy if he went bounty hunting in the core worlds, that's gonna raise eyebrows real quick and probably end up with a wookie in binders, for real this time.

An IKPC is a one size fits all document according to Wookieepedia:

The Imperial Peace-Keeping Certificate (or IPKC) was issued by the Imperial Office of Criminal Investigations to beings who intended to hunt bounties. It was frequently known as the bounty hunter's "license to operate".[1]
The IPKC was conceived by the Bounty Hunters' Guild to prevent amateurs getting in the way of their business. It proved the holder was entitled to hunt bounties and receive full payment upon completion. It required a one-time 1,000 credit fee, payable to any government licensing bureau. Anyone who delivered a bounty without this permit was only eligible for half the listed reward.[2]
