Star Wars Alien Species - Cathar

Cathar was the homeworld of the Cathar species, filled with many ecological niches and huge insect predators.

The natives lived in city-trees, while wide areas of the planet were made barren by kiltik beetles.

The Giant horned hopper were often killed by the Cathar species in blood hunts.

The planet of Cathar was devastated by the Mandalorians during the Battle of Cathar, leading to the enslavement and near-extinction of the Cathar species. Over 90 percent of the species was killed by the Mandalorians in the battle. The few survivors were forced to flee off-world to survive. After the Mandalorian Wars, Cathar began to resettle their world. By the time of the Galactic Civil War, it had fully recovered from the damage the Mandalorians had done.

With the return of the Sith Empire during the Great Galactic War, most Cathar sided with the Galactic Republic. By the time of the Cold War, many Cathar had settled on Ord Mantell. Others attempted to settle on Taris to aid in its rebuilding, but were attacked by the Sith Empire just prior to the outbreak of hostilities. As conflict was renewed with the Galactic War, Cathar support for the Republic began to mildly diminish due to galactic events.

The Sith Empire had liberated a Cathar political prisoner and his followers who were covertly imprisoned on Belsavis for twenty years at the behest of the Republic Strategic Information Service. This incident was leaked by Imperial Non-human Relations, which damaged the public trust between the Republic and their alien citizens. After Malgus' betrayal, the Sith Empire began an alien initiative which saw multiple Cathar clans being freely inducted into the ranks.

Cathar was conquered by the Yuuzhan Vong during the Yuuzhan Vong War. The invaders overran the planet prior to their attack on Coruscant in 27 ABY.

On their homeworld, Cathar lived in cities built into giant trees, and were organized into clans governed by "Elders." Stories of their great heroes were often carved into the trunks of these tree-homes for following generations to see. The Cathar mated for life, to the extent that when one mate died, the survivor never had a relationship with another. Cathar clan society included great pageants and celebrations, especially for their heroes. Their religion included a ritual known as the "Blood Hunt," in which Cathar warriors individually engaged in combat against entire nests of Kiltik in order to gain honor and purge themselves of inner darkness.

Cathar were born into a litter. The Cathar species was biologically similar to the Bothan species. The Cathar species had two subspecies, known as the Juhani (The Juhani was one of the subspecies of the Cathar species that was notable for being less cat-like than the baseline Cathar.) and the Myr Rho (The Myr Rho was a subspecies of the Cathar, notable because they appeared to be less catlike than the baseline Cathar species.). Both of these were notably less catlike than mainline Cathar. The baseline Cathar had fur-covered bodies with thick manes. They had prominent, retractable claws that could deliver powerful killing attacks on foes and prey. These traits made them the perfect hand-to-hand specialists.

On average, Cathar were 1.5 to 1.9 meters or 4.9 to 9.2 feet tall and weighs 85 kilograms or 187 pounds.

Cathar age at the following stages:

1- 10 Child

11 - 15 Young Adult

16 - 40 Adult

41 - 62 Middle Age

63 - 79 Old

Examples of Names: Crado, Elashi, Feeth, Ferroh, Juhani, Larducias, Marnshara, Nodon, Nodak, Stragos, Sulvar, Tinisho.

Languages: Cathar speak Catharese and Basic, using low growls and similar sounds to emphasize their point.
