As the player moves through Dantooine's surface, he or she will eventually come across this character, who becomes a member to their party for the rest of the game. For those who do not know what a Cathar is, they are feline, bipedal humanoids from the planet Cathar.
Juhani: a female Cathar Padawan in the Jedi Order, at the time of the Jedi Civil War.
Unfortunate after the Battle of Cathar, Juhani lived a rough life on Taris. Her father was killed by Twi'lek slaver Xor, and her mother passed soon after from a broken heart. Juhani's enslavement did not last long, as she was freed by Revan, still a Jedi Knight back then. For Juhani, there was more than freedom in store.
Having collected enough money, Juhani boarded the first freighter to Dantooine, where she would train under Jedi Master Quatra. While struggling with her Cathar blood, in order to master her emotions, Juhani progressed and came through with her training.
After reaching the Jedi Trials, Juhani fought Quatra in a confrontation, for which she was told to strike her Master down. In spite of Quatra feigning death, Juhani fled to the ancient grove on Dantooine, for which she was tainting.
Not until three passing years did Juhani learn of Revan's "death" and the apprentice who would face her at the grove, where she was defeated. When she learned Quatra really meant to teach her humility, Juhani was spared by Revan. Returning to the Jedi Council at the Enclave, Juhani passed her final trial, promoting her to the rank of Jedi Knight. Before Revan and Bastila left Dantooine, the Council approved of Juhani's request to join their crew.
In the time of Revan's search for the Star Forge, Juhani met the Twi'lek slaver that tried to purchase her on their last encounter. Although Juhani did not kill Xor by her hand, thanks to Revan's support, she accepted his fate will fall elsewhere. Juhani repaid Revan in turn when he traveled to Lehon. There, they would meet Bastila, who fell to the dark side and mocked Juhani's cowardice. After Malak's defeat and the Star Forge destroyed, Juhani was awarded the Cross of Glory, as fighter ships flew.
