Well some time after the Battle of Endor, in the EU (yes I still consider the EU to be canon/lore-factual to the Star Wars universe despite Disney retconning all of it) Ewoks began to spread throughout the galaxy.  During this time Red-Eyes traveled, like many Ewoks, to see what the galaxy had to offer.  On her travels she witnessed many members of the larger races being mean, cruel, ect towards the 'primative' Ewoks.  So long story short, she witnessed so much of this that she eventually got fed up and lashed out one day, force throwing a hooligan into a spikey object out of pure anger.  An as-of-yet unnamed Sith lord that was curiously observing the young ewok applauded her actions, took her in to teacher the ways of the Dark Side, to better protect her kin.. of course.  
  As far as how she is with goody-goody ewoks, she's fine with them.  She holds contempt and hatred only towards non-ewoks.  Ewoks that have fit in with the other races, even becoming Jedi (there is at least one jedi ewok in the EU), she views with pity and sadness, because to her they've been brainwashed and tricked by the other species.  Still she won't outright attack them, not even the ewoks who have chosen the Jedi path.  So long as they don't get in her way, she leaves them be.  However if tehy do try to stop her from accomplishing her goals, then it is regretablly sad that she must fight a fellow ewok.   And even then, she will try her hardest not to kill said ewok, but rather incapacitate the opponent, at least if she has that option.

Ah. Nice. Personally, EU or not, it makes sense for at least SOME ewoks to explore the universe at large. Though even by Disney canon, ewoks have been known about for a while and their meat is sold as noms "Ewok Jerky". Granted, the ewoks wouldn't see that as much a horrible thing as humans would because ewoks have no qualms with eating sentient creatures.

I have two Jedi ewoks now (the second one is coming along now with a penned pic being colored) and three if you count Shayock, who never officially joined the Jedi order. First is Ikia:

Ikia was actually raised as a jedi. So she is from some time before the Clone Wars (Not killed by Order 66, though, because she would not have participated in a war). Ikia is a rules lawyer, capable of correcting anyone in the order on anything pertaining to the rules / code / etc. Exceptions being possibly some of the council. She has a focus on martial, so she is skilled with lightsaber combat while being weak in any ranged combat or exotic powers. Her highly organized mind and tendency to be extremely unwavering gives her a resistance to mental manipulation, but she is ignorant of most things scoundrels would consider basic knowledge, making her a touch naive and allowing a weakness to her otherwise towering wall of mental defense. She is a stalwart, lawful perfectionist with a little bit of OCD, but she is compassionate and cares much for the defenseless. Ikia would likely get in your character's way, but also would try to persuade her with words (She is a classic Jedi with trying reason long before trying combat). An encounter with Darth Fluffy would be interesting and could result in Ikia being tricked into getting out of Fluffy's way.

Second, I'll cover Shayock:

Shayock is during the era of the original trilogy, but before Return of the Jedi. She was a shaman in training on Endor, but her master got killed by a dark side human whose specialty is commanding animals. While Shayock did not hold hatred or seek revenge, she did seek to avenge her teacher nonetheless. By the time that campaign was through, she had manipulated time itself, thus defeating the entire dark side of the force and the Empire in one fell swoop. Shayock also seemed to be impervious to harm, as if destined to continue as the hero she set out to be (I always lucked out on STR rolls to resist damage, earning her the name "Super Ewok"). Shayock is a live and let live sort who was originally closer to Neutral than Good, but heroics turned her into a jaded good guy who just wanted things to be normal. The powers she wielded were legion, and although she never got a lightsaber, she was blackbelt in about 3 or 4 forms of martial arts. Shayock inadvertently, by trying to just do right by her master and those she considered her responsibility, wound up one of my most powerful characters. Shayock probably would not get in Fluffy's way as she has fried the Dark Side itself and brought it back just to beat it up again, so she is both probably tired of fighting and more interested in teaching a new generation of heroes. An encounter with her would also be interesting because Shayock's specialty from the very start was seduction and using plantlife and spores to control her opponents. And since that doesn't use the force, Fluffy might not even see that coming from a powerhouse like Shayock, but I don't know Fluffy like you do, obviously. In all irony, she has no force seduction powers. XD Buuut... she was trained by elites who specialized in resisting force powers.

Third, I'll cover Layloo:

Layloo is actually a member of Bright Tree Village from the Return of the Jedi. She spent most of her life unaware she was force sensitive, but after Logray took Teebo as his apprentice, he finally noticed Layloo's potential and assigned her to Teebo. But when the Battle of Endor happened, Luke was pretty much told by Yoda's ghost to take Layloo as his apprentice. She is not bad at anything and a pretty decent archer. But I have yet to see where game will take her for her Jedi training as I will begin the game as a brand new apprentice. Personality-wise, she is cheerful and curious. Fluffy would kick Layloo's tail pretty easily and could probably seduce her to her way of thinking if not for Layloo being at Luke Skywalker's side at all times.
