    • I. Origin & History

    The Cathars are from the planet Cathar, a temperate world located in the Expansion Region. These people have their own language, the Cathars, but all the inhabitants speak fluently Basic since the arrival of the explorers of the Republic. Regardless of the language used, the Cathars have a habit of punctuating all their sentences with meows and grunts.



    The planet Cathar has within it several hostile animal and plant species, in particular gigantic insectoid predators, which very quickly led the Cathars to develop all their senses to the extreme in order to survive such an environment.
    The Cathars live in large communities grouped together, always for the same environmental reasons, in the heart of the largest trees. This is where the representatives of this species live, and where they perpetuate their culture and history, through majestic wood and stone engravings, which recount the legendary exploits of heroes of the past.

    Beside inhabited forests, the Cathars used to retreat to a desolate area known as the Great Plain, which allowed them to meditate and meditate on themselves. This environment inhabited by hostile predators is also the ideal place to reconnect with your instincts and sharpen your senses.

    The Cathars are overwhelmingly proud and courageous people, possessing a great sense of morality and honor. Blood ties are very strong in their culture, and couples are always formed for life. Their fierceness in combat is legendary, and very few individuals would venture to provoke a member of this species.



    Two of the greatest Cathar heroes, Crado and his mate Sylvar, were powerful Jedi Knights some 4.000 years before the Galactic Civil War. Unfortunately for the couple, Crado succumbed to the lure of the Dark Side and took orders from the Dark Lord of the Sith Exar Kun.
    Crado's fate, weakened in his master's eyes after several proofs of incompetence, was sealed when the Lord of the Sith asked him to activate an ancient super weapon built by Naga Sadow. Confident in his master's orders, the renegade Cathar activated the weapon, whose power was such that it was instantly reduced to ashes.
    Mad with rage by the death of her companion, and despite his treachery, Sylvar almost sank into the Dark Side and set out in pursuit of Exar Kun's lieutenant, the fallen Jedi Ulic Qel-Droma.
    The two heroes are still present in the memories of the Cathars today, and the tales of their thousand-year-old exploits are still told and engraved in the trees.
