Ja'Gatcha

Ja'Gatcha was a male Paaerduag from the planet known in Galactic Basic Standard as "Sorjus." The joined being left their homeworld of Sorjus to travel the galaxy. During these travels, Ja-Gatcha became stranded on Taris after the Sith Empire attacked the Galactic Republic cruiser Endar Spire and then initiated a planet-wide blockade in an attempt to capture the Jedi Bastila Shan. While stuck on Taris, they visited Javyar's Cantina located in the Lower City, where they would field questions and avoid mockery.

Biography
Ja'Gatcha, a Paaerduag, lived on the planet known as Sorjus in Galactic Basic. Originally the creature began life as two separate individuals, like all other members of their species. They would eventually become one; they also left the planet and traveled about the galaxy some time before 3,956 BBY. On one such trip, they stopped on Taris to pick up supplies. During this time, a conflict of the Jedi Civil War broke out above Taris: the Republic Hammerhead-class cruiser Endar Spire was attacked by Sith forces led by Darth Malak in an attempt to capture the Jedi Bastila Shan. Once the cruiser was destroyed, a blockade was raised, forcing Ja'Gatcha to remain on the planet. Deciding to hide out in Javyar's cantina in order to avoid the Upper City's anti-alien laws, they stayed put and attempted to deflect mockeries.

The Republic soldier Revan met Ja'Gatcha in the cantina sometime after the former's crash on Taris. The Paaerduag, pleased that Revan did not intend to look down on the creature, revealed a few facts about his life, species, homeworld, and predicament.

Personality and traits
Ja'Gatcha felt that their species was the "pinnacle of evolution" and as such looked down on other, "lesser" species. However, not all individuals shared their outlook, and as such would fling insults at the Paaerduag. Due to these, Ja'Gatcha possessed an edgy and paranoid personality. However, once an individual revealed that his intentions were not those of hostility or mocking, Ja'Gatcha would open up and answer some questions. They would refrain, however, from speaking of their home planet in times they were unable to return due to extenuating circumstances.

Behind the scenes
"You're a freak!"

- Revan taunts Ja'Gatcha

Ja'Gatcha's first and only appearance was as a non-player-character in the video game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. There the player character Revan could interact with them. However, the nature of the conversation was such that it did not progress any plot, nor did it change the player character's alignment, and therefore it is undetermined whether Revan ever interacted with the Paaerduag or whether or not he insulted Ja'Gatcha or if he sympathized with them.
