Jool in The Peacekeeper Wars

"I'm Your Daddy" cover B by Will Sliney

Joolushko Tunai Fenta Hovalis, simply referred to as Jool, is a prima-donna Interion academic who's rescued by John Crichton and the crew of Moya. She appears sporadically during the third and fourth seasons of Farscape.
Her screams can melt metal, and her orange hair turns red when she's upset.
Biography[]
Jool grew up on a peaceful planet, one without violence or weapons. She spent most of her life attending school and is particularly knowledgeable in the fields of history and science, including genetics, neuroscience, and xenobiology.
After discovering a Noatian gem mine, Jool and her cousins were captured by guards and sold to Grunchlk, who kept them in cryogenic pods.[note 1]
Twenty-two years later, after Tocot uses one of Jool's cousins to repair Crichton's brain in "Season of Death," Crichton brings Jool and her other cousin on board Moya; he hopes that because Interions and humans are closely related, he'll be able to find Earth. Unfortunately, Jool's other cousin doesn't survive being released from the cryopod, and although Jool lives, she is unfamiliar with Earth. She does, however, continue to remain on Moya.
At the beginning of season four, Jool is shown working at an archeological dig site on Arnessk. When the ancient Eidelon priests are reawakened at the end of "Resurrection," she decides to stay and parts ways with the Moya crew.
Jool returns in the miniseries Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars. She introduces the crew to Yondalao and the other Eidelons. Crichton offers to take Jool back to Qujaga, but she refuses, telling him she belongs on Arnesssk. As the Scarrans approach the planet, Jool reaches out to say the Eidelons pose no threat. However, the Scarrans give no response, and they blow up the Eidelon temple with Jool still inside.
Personality[]
Initially characterized as a whiny, narcissistic know-it-all (resulting in Chiana's nickname for her: "Princess"), Jool becomes an integral member of the Moya crew and grows to care for her fellow crewmates. Between the episodes "Dog with Two Bones" and "Sacrifice," she even develops a romantic relationship with D'Argo.
Jool has a disdain for the Peacekeepers and their propaganda, calling them "a manifest military contagion that has raped and pillaged" in the episode "...Different Destinations."
