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). She also has a strong sense of ethics and compassion. She knows that she can frequently be a difficult person to like, and tries, albeit clumsily, to overcome that.
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, and they were the only girls on Moya for a good part of Season 3.
Jool's relationship with the male series lead, John Crichton, was consistently prickly and never romantic. She blamed Crichton for the deaths of her cousins, one of whom was used as a donor of neural fluid to save Crichton after his brain surgery was interrupted by Scorpius at the end of Season 2. Jool never hesistated to tell to Crichton when she thought he was in the wrong, or being self-serving.
Jool established a non-romantic friendship with the Luxan warrior D'Argo in the second half of Series 3. The development of this relationship illustrated the growth of her courage, both socially (it is to D'Argo that she acknowledged her loneliness and awareness of being a 'difficult' personality) and physically: when D'Argo was attacked by a Peacekeeper officer in the "Into the Lion's Den" two-parter, Jool piled in physically to help him, the first time she undertook any such action in the series. The series introduced a belated textual romantic element between Jool and D'Argo in season 4.
