Sha'uri was a character in the fictional Stargate universe who was the wife of Daniel Jackson. She was an Abydonian, daughter of Kasuf, sister to Skaara and host to Amonet. She was played by Mili Avital in the Stargate movie, and Vaitiare Bandera in Stargate SG-1.
In Stargate SG-1, her name is spelled "Sha're".
[edit] History
Like the rest of the people of Abydos, Sha'uri was enslaved by Ra. When the exploration team from Earth visited the planet however, they showed the people on Abydos that Ra was not a god. She later became convinced of this when she learned about the true history of her people that was described on walls beneath an Abydonian city, and was one of the leaders who led her people to freedom.
Sha'uri was offered to Daniel Jackson by her father, and although he initially refused to take her as his wife, the two eventually fell in love with each other[1] and married. After being married to Daniel Jackson for one year, Sha're was taken hostage by Apophis. The newly formed SG-1 went in pursuit of the System Lord, but they were captured and thrown in a dungeon with the other prisoners. When Apophis and his entourage entered the prison to choose which captives would become symbiote hosts, Sha're was standing by the Goa'uld's side. It became clear to Jackson that his wife had been forced to become the host for the symbiote queen Amonet. Although SG-1 escaped from the prison, they could not apprehend Apophis before he left through the Stargate with Sha're.[2]
Jackson was again confronted with his wife when he, together with Teal'c, visited Abydos to tell Sha're's father Kasuf what had happened to his children. However, a highly pregnant Sha're was hiding on Abydos at the time, to hide her child from Heru-ur. According to Sha're, Amonet allowed the host to surface, because if the Goa'uld were to awake the child would be born dead. Also, she informed Jackson that her child, fathered by Apophis, would be a Harcesis, an unpossessed human who contained all the genetic memory of the Goa'uld.
When Sha're, assisted by Daniel Jackson, gave birth to a boy, Shifu, Amonet again took control of Sha're and ordered Jackson to hand over the child. However, he refused, and hid the boy on Abydos instead. When Amonet returned to Apophis, she did not inform him about the presense of SG-1 on the planet, and even convinced him that his enemy Heru-ur had kidnapped the child.[3]
However, Amonet returned for the boy a year later, sending him to the planet Kheb with one of her handmaidens. She also kidnapped several Abydonians, who were shortly thereafter rescued by SG-1. During these events, Daniel Jackson followed Amonet into her tent, where she attacked him with her hand device. To prevent Daniel from being killed, Teal'c was forced to fire his staff weapon at her, killing not only Amonet but also Sha're. Daniel cried over his dead wife, but decided to find the Harcesis, the last legacy of his wife.[4]
