Jara fish


A jara fish was a species of fish that inhabited the planet of Mon Cala. When Ghal Tarpfen was a young Mon Calamari, she would often sit outside her underwater dwelling, observing the debris drifting down from the surface. On one day, she witnessed a jara fish that was dead. The sight was made all the more unsettling by the fact that the creature was in multiple fragments: its fin, tail, and head, with its eyes gazing blankly. Later in her life, when she was being blackmailed by the Nihil marauders, Tarpfen experienced a similar feeling of being dismembered and lost, much like that jara fish she had seen long ago.

Behind the scenes

The jara fish were referenced within the initial chapter of "Starlight: Shadows Remain," a concise narrative crafted by Justina Ireland. It was featured in the 207th edition of the Star Wars Insider periodical, appearing as part of the Star Wars: The High Republic: Starlight episodic story on December 14 of 2021.
