Yuon Par

Yuon Par was a female Human Jedi Master serving the Jedi Order and the Galactic Republic during the Cold War with the Sith Empire.

Biography
A Force-sensitive Human, Yuon Par was trained in the ways of the Force by the Jedi Order, ascending to the rank of Jedi Master. Training as a Consular, Par became a respected scholar, specialized as an archaeologist and recognized as responsible for the reclamation of the lost Ghornus Texts and a holocron crafted by Master Odan-Urr.

As well as her research into the prehistory of the Jedi Order, Master Par was a skilled diplomat and successfully negotiated peace between warring clans of Gamorreans and became the bloodsister of a Kaleesh chieftain, all through her works in the field. When the Jedi Order was forced to relocate to their ancestral homeworld, Tython, following the sacking of Coruscant, the loss of the Jedi Temple there, and the signing of the Treaty of Coruscant, Master Par began teaching a class on the history of the Order to Initiates at the new Temple there.

At one time, during her studies, Par met the Trandoshan Qyzen Fess on Belkadan. He traded whatever he found in some ruins for snake-bite medicine. Since then, they had become close friends, though some of the Jedi put that into question.

After her apprentice completed her trials, Yuon Par fell into a terrible illness and went insane that darkness was coming, which would slowly turn her to the dark side. The apprentice was able to find the medicine and cured Master Par, causing her insanity to fade.

Personality and traits
A staunch supporter of the Jedi Order and devout in her pursuit of history, Master Yuon Par was considered somewhat unorthodox by her peers but was well respected. But her friendship with a Trandoshan, Qyzen Fess, was frowned upon.

Behind the scenes
Yuon Par was voiced by Olivia Hussey, an actress well known for her role of Juliet in the 1968 film "Romeo and Juliet". She also voiced some minor characters in other Star Wars games, such as Force Commander and Rogue Squadron.
