Joolushko "Jool" Tunai Fenta Hovalis, played by Tammy McIntosh, is a character on Farscape.

She first appeared in the season 3 two-parter "Self-Inflicted Wounds".

She is an Interion (which are a humanoid alien species). She is young, very intelligent and academically accomplished, but from a sheltered and privileged background, ill-equipped to the harshness of life in the Uncharted Territories, and unused to violence (although Chiana quickly introduces her to it).

Her screams are powerful enough to melt metal.

Jool's role in the series

Jool usually served as the comic relief in season three.

Her scenes with Chiana carried a lot of slashy subtext. They worked as each other's foil (Jool being the book-smart one and Chiana the street-smart one), bickered (calling each other "Princess" and "Miss Monochrome", respectively), and Chiana punched Jool in the face a lot (usually claiming that it was for her own good). They also showed closeness and comforted each other during difficult times.

The series introduced a belated textual romantic element between Jool and D'Argo in season 4.
