J'Hara was a female human who was the daughter of the former Jedi Naq Med. When her grandson, Karr Nuq Sin, began experiencing severe headaches and blackouts, she believed it was because he was Force-sensitive, whilst Nuq Sin's parents wanted to have him continually tested by medical professionals to be sure it was not a terminal brain tumor. During Nuq Sin's testing, J'Hara attempted to help Nuq Sin control and understand his abilities. When Karr was seventeen, J'Hara died, and in her final moments, she told him to go out into the galaxy and learn his place.[3]
