Miscellaneous alien characters in Stargate

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article lists prominent alien characters in the Stargate universe that cannot be categorised into other existing character lists.

In the Stargate fictional universe, the alien race known as Goa'uld used Stargates to transport large numbers of humans to other planets in the Milkay Way galaxy for use as slaves. Some of these groups were later abandoned (usually due to a decline of easily mined naqahdah deposits) and developed on their own to a level of technology, sometimes surpassing than that of contemporary Earth. The premise is expressed by Dr. Daniel Jackson in the episode Enigma that had this world not experienced the Dark Ages, it would also have developed to such advanced levels.

Unlike what happened in the Milky Way galaxy, the human population of the Pegasus Galaxy is product of Ancient seeding. Also unlike in the Milky Way, no human civilization shown until now in Stargate Atlantis surpasses Earth in technological level (unless they use leftover Ancient technology), although a few come close. It seems that the Wraith eliminate any advanced civilizations in the Pegasus Galaxy as soon as they are discovered, perceiving them as potential threats to Wraith dominance; an advanced civilization might eventually invent the hyperdrive and build warships capable of challenging the Wraith. The Ancients long ago placed satellites in orbit of each human settlement for technological development but had to abandon the project after the Wraith war.

[edit] Abydonian characters

[edit] Kasuf

Stargate character
Erick Avari as Kasuf
Kasuf
Race	Human
Gender	Male
Rank	Tribal leader
Birthplace	Abydos
Relatives	Sha're, Skaara, Daniel Jackson, Shifu
First appearance	"Stargate"

Kasuf (Hebrew for 'silver-coloured'), played by Erick Avari, was the leader of the people of Abydos. He has two children, Sha're and Skaara. Kasuf is one of the two only characters (the other being Skaara) who was played by the same actor in the movie and the series.

In the film, Kasuf and other members of his tribe on Abydos were forced to believe that Ra was a god for all his life until Jack O'Neill and his expedition arrive on his planet. When Daniel Jackson shows Kasuf the true nature of the Jaffa guards, Kasuf and his tribe attack Ra's forces, thus saving the Stargate team and his own son, Skaara.^[1]

The series Stargate SG-1 takes place one year after the planet was freed from slavery under Ra, and the marriage of Daniel and Sha're made Kasuf Daniel's father-in-law. When O'Neill and his people return to Abydos in the pilot episode of the show, Apophis attacks Abydos and kidnaps Kasuf's two children, Sha're and Skaara to make them hosts for the Goa'uld.^[2]

Daniel returns one year later, as promised, in the episode "Secrets". By that time, Sha're has become pregnant with a child. Heru-ur plans to kidnap the child, but Kasuf helps Daniel Jackson to hide it.^[3]

Kasuf returns in the episodes "Forever in a Day" and "Absolute Power", the latter in which Sha're dies.^[4][5] Kasuf makes his last appearance in the episode "Full Circle" when Abydos comes under attack from Anubis. Abydos' human settlement and the Stargate are destroyed by the System Lord in this event, and Kasuf ascends to a higher plane of existence with the aid of Oma Desala, along with the rest of his people. ^[6]

[edit] Sha're

Stargate character
Sha'uri (sic) played by Mili Avital in the Stargate movie
Sha're
Race	Human
Gender	Female
Birthplace	Abydos
Relatives	Kasuf, Skaara, Daniel Jackson, Shifu
Portrayer	Vaitiare Bandera Mili Avital (film)
First appearance	"Stargate"
Key episodes	"Children of the Gods" "Secrets" "Forever in a Day"

Sha're, in the movie spelled "Sha'uri", is the wife of Daniel Jackson during Seasons 1 through 3. She is an Abydonian, daughter of Kasuf, sister to Skaara and became host to Amonet. She was played by Mili Avital in the Stargate movie, and Vaitiare Bandera in Stargate SG-1.

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 presence 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]

[edit] Skaara

Stargate character
Skaara as Klorel in Within the Serpent's Grasp
Skaara
Race	Human: Abydonian
Gender	Male
Birthplace	Abydos
Relatives	Kasuf (father) Sha'uri (older sister) Daniel Jackson (brother-in-law)
Portrayer	Alexis Cruz Alexis Cruz (film)
First appearance	"Stargate"

Skaara, played by Alexis Cruz in both the original Stargate film and Stargate SG-1, was the son of Kasuf and brother to Sha're. He is one of only two characters (the other being his father Kasuf) who are played by the same actor in both the movie and the series.

In the film, Skaara was enslaved by Ra and forced to work in his naqahdah mines like the rest of the people of Abydos. This was changed when he was introduced to Colonel Jack O'Neill and his exploration team from Earth. He developed a special interest in Col. O'Neill and started to imitate him. His lighthearted, boyish imitations reminded O'Neill of his late son, who had accidentally killed himself with Jack's gun.

When Ra summoned the people of Skaara's tribe to show them the execution of the people from Earth, he helped them flee by using their weapons. Together with some of his friends he helped O'Neill and his soldiers sneak into the pyramid on the planet to fight against the soldiers of Ra. However, when Ra used his Death gliders, he and the others had to surrender. Fortunately, his father Kasuf and a popular rebellion saved him and his companions from execution.^[7]

In the events of the series, Skaara lived peacefully on Abydos for another year, but when O'Neill returned, he was kidnapped by the Goa'uld Apophis and taken to Chulak. There, he was chosen to become host to a Goa'uld symbiote, Apophis's son Klorel. ^[8]

During Apophis's attack against Earth, Klorel commanded one of the two Ha'taks the System Lord had sent to the planet. As SG-1 had been successful in invading his ship, Skaara was again confronted with O'Neill. However, he was still controlled by his symbiote, and was only able to emerge when he was shot with a Zat. However, O'Neill and Teal'c were soon captured and brought before Apophis, who ordered their execution.

When the two were rescued by their comrades, O'Neill was forced to shoot Klorel to prevent him from killing Dr. Jackson. He was later revived by Bra'tac by placing him into a Sarcophagus. ^[9] After his resurrection, he was taken hostage by SG-1 and Bra'tac who transport to Apophis' ship. As SG-1 had been successful in sabotaging the two vessels, Apophis and his son were forced to flee before their ships were destroyed. ^[10]

About two years later, his ship crashed on the Tollan homeworld while fleeing from Heru-ur's forces. With Klorel injured, Skaara regained control and pleaded the Tollan for help to remove the Symbiote. The Tollan called a three-sided trial, a Triad, to decide who should control Skaara's body. Klorel was represented by Zipacna, while Skaara was defended by SG-1; the third neutral Archon was Lya of the Nox. The SG team succeeded in defending Skaara, and the Goa'uld symbiote was separated from his body. It is unknown what happens to Klorel afterwards, but Skaara returned to Abydos. ^[11]

Skaara met SG-1 one final time over three years later. As Jack O'Neill had been contacted by the Ascended Daniel Jackson, who informed him that Anubis is on his way to Abydos to search for the Eye of Ra, the team visited the planet again to defend it from the System Lord.

Skaara helped the team search for the Eye and to defend them from Anubis' Jaffa. However, he was mortally wounded during the firefight. When it appeared that he would die, he was Ascended by Oma Desala. He finally reappeared before SG-1 after Anubis attacked Abydos, and informed him that the entire population of Abydos was Ascended by Oma. ^[12]

[edit] Langaran characters

Further information: wikia:Stargate:Langarans

[edit] Dreylock

Stargate character
Dreylock
Race	Human: Langaran
Gender	Female
Rank	First Minister of Kelowna, formerly ambassador
Birthplace	Kelowna, Langara
Portrayer	Gillian Barber
First appearance	"Shadow Play"

Dreylock was a high ranking Kelownan official, and Kelownan ambassador to other nations and planets. She was the right hand of First Minister Velis.

After the Kelownans had learned of the military alliance between the Terranians and the Andari Federation, Dreylock travelled to Earth with Commander Hale and Dr. Kieran in the hopes of obtaining the Tau'ri's more advanced military technology to aid in their conflict with Kelowna's two rival nations. However, the SGC eventually refused to share their technology ^[13], forcing the Kelownans to use their naqahdria bomb in a preemptive strike.

Several months later, Anubis probed the mind of Jonas Quinn and learned about the existence of naqahdria, who subsequently came to Langara and conquered the planet. After First Minister Velis was killed by Anubis' Jaffa, Dreylock became Kelowna's new First Minister. With no other options, Dreylock contacted the SGC and asked for their help in defeating the invading Goa'uld. SG-1 eventually contacted the System Lords, who sent their fleet and destroyed Anubis' mothership. She eventually allowed Jonas Quinn, whom she previously regarded as a traitor for defecting to Earth and stealing samples of naqahdria, to remain on Langara. ^[14]

Since the forming of the planet's Joint Ruling Council, somewhat unifying Kelowna and neighboring nations Terrania and the Andari Federation in the aftermath of the Goa'uld invasion, Dreylock has become more concerned with helping to maintain the uneasy peace between the three nations. She again came to Earth some months later when a volatile vein of naqahdria building up under Kelowna's surface threatened her planet. After Samantha Carter managed to solve the crisis, she returned home.^[15]

[edit] Hale

Stargate character
Hale
Race	Human: Langaran
Gender	Male
Birthplace	Kelowna, Langara
Portrayer	Doug Abrahams
First appearance	"Shadow Play"

Hale was a commander in the Kelownan military, and advisor to First Minister Velis.

After the Kelownans had learned of the military alliance between the Terranians and the Andari Federation, Hale travelled to Earth with Ambassador Drelock and Dr. Kieran in the hopes of obtaining the Tau'ri's more advanced military technology to aid in their conflict with Kelowna's two rival nations. Hale had little patience with Jonas Quinn, regarding him as a traitor for defecting to Earth and stealing samples of naqahdria. Eventually, the SGC refused to share military technology ^[13], forcing the Kelownans to used their naqahdria bomb in a preemptive strike.

Several months later, Anubis probed the mind of Jonas Quinn and learned about the existence of naqahdria, who subsequently came to Langara and conquered the planet. Although the new First Minister Dreylock preferred to rely on help from SG-1, Hale secretly struck a deal with Anubis' Jaffa to protect his people. In exchange for Anubis leaving Kelowna, Hale handed over his nation's entire stockpile of naqahdria, and agreed to locate and turn over a data crystal believed to contain the research of the Goa'uld who experimented with naqahdria on Langara many centuries ago.

As predicted by SG-1, Anubis didn't keep his word. When Hale handed over the data crystal to Herak, Anubis's First Prime, the Jaffa shot and killed him on the spot with his staff weapon. ^[14]

[edit] Jonas Quinn

Main article: Jonas Quinn

Jonas Quinn was a Kelownan scientist who became a member of SG-1 for a year and replaced Daniel Jackson as archaeologist and linguist. As General Hammond demanded that the flagship team be punctuated by a fourth member, to provide an alternate viewpoint, O'Neill accepted Quinn as he would otherwise have a Russian team member forced on him.

According to Janet Fraiser, Quinn could absorb a great amount of knowledge in a small amount of time, aided by his photographic memory. Throughout Season Six, Jonas demonstrated a character very similar to Daniel, providing valuable insight to SG-1. Eventually, Jonas was captured by Anubis and had his mind probed. Anubis learned about the existence of the powerful mineral naqahdria, and its location on Jonas' homeworld, who subsequently conquered the planet. After helping to save his people from Anubis, and with Daniel back with SG-1, Jonas returned to his people.

[edit] Lucian Alliance characters

Further information: wikia:Stargate:Lucian Alliance

[edit] Netan

Stargate character
Netan
Race	Human
Gender	Male
Rank	Leader of the Lucian Alliance
Birthplace	Unknown
Portrayer	Eric Steinberg
First appearance	"Off the Grid"

Netan is the ruthless leader of the Lucian Alliance, a group of smugglers and mercenaries that have joined together to fill the power vacuum created by the demise of the Goa'uld.

When Ba'al began stealing Stargates from several planets, including one controlled by the Lucian Alliance, Netan was displeased when one of his officers, Worrel, was unable to determine the cause. As Worrel was eventually able to deduce Ba'al's whereabouts, Netan sent three Ha'taks to intercept him. However, he failed to retrieve their lost Stargates.^[16]

Several months later, Teal'c approached the Lucian Alliance for their help in attacking the invading Ori battlecruisers. Although Netan was initially resistant, he later committed three motherships to the effort. He held Teal'c resposible for the subsequent destruction of two of his mothership during what would later become known as the Battle of P3Y-229, and tortured him before the Jaffa was beamed away by the Odyssey.^[17]

Netan's decision to participate in the battle however would eventually create tension amongst his seconds. One of his seconds, Anateo, even came to believe that Netan was unworthy to lead the Alliance, and planned to move against him. In an effort to rid himself from Anateo, Netan sent him on what he hoped would be a fools errand and ordered him to capture the Odyssey.

When, against expectations, Anateo's plan succeeded, the SGC sent Cameron Mitchell to infiltrate the Alliance. He impersonated Netan's old friend Kefflin, who subsequently was able to discover the location of the missing ship. After Mitchell was recognised by Tenat, a fellow Alliance member, he was forced to impersonate Netan himself as he tricked two motherships menacing the Odyssey into attacking each other.^[18]

Although Netan had subsequently declared war on the Tau'ri, there would be no direct attack against Earth. Instead, Earth would make raids which were conducted primarily by SG-1 on Lucian Alliance assets. The loss of a transport ship carrying Kassa would be one such raid conducted by SG-1 which weakened Netan's position among his lieutenants. As such, he placed a bounty on the heads of SG-1 which many bounty hunters attempted to fulfill. In the end, this failed and Netans lieutenants hired Odai Ventrell, who failed in capturing SG-1, to kill Netan himself. Currently, it is presumed that Netan was killed by the bounty hunter who killed another bounty hunter attempting to make the kill. Netan was under the mistaken opinion that he had been saved when the bounty hunter pointed his weapon at the Lucian Alliance warlord.^[19]

[edit] Jup

Stargate character
Jup in The Ties That Bind
Jup
Race	Oranian
Gender	Male
Birthplace	Unknown
Portrayer	Geoff Redknap
First appearance	"Prometheus Unbound"

Jup was an Oranian minor member of the Lucian Alliance.

He and his partner Tenat were sent by the Alliance to trade a case of weapons grade refined Naqahdah to Vala Mal Doran in exchange for the stolen Prometheus. However, Daniel Jackson retook control of the ship before the trade, but was convinced by Vala to land on the planet and greet the two below. Dressed in the armor of a Kull warrior and impervious to their weapons, Jackson stunned Jup and Tenat when the ship came under attack of several Death Gliders.^[20]

As Vala had defied the Alliance, who were eager to make an example of her, Jup and his partner were sent to capture her. Posing as bounty hunters, Cameron Mitchell and Teal'c pretended to exchange Vala for a load of refined Naqahdah. Although Jup and Tenat had planned to trick the two alleged bounty hunters, SG-1 double-crossed them and stole their Tel'tak.^[21]

During the takeover of the Odyssey by the Lucian Alliance, Jup was working elsewhere while Tenat had discovered the location of the missing Tau'ri vessel.^[18]

After Netan placed a reward on the heads of SG-1, Jup was one of several bounty hunters who travelled to Earth to attempt to capture the team. However, Jup was killed by another bounty hunter while attempting to collect on the reward.^[19]

[edit] Tenat

Stargate character
Tenat
Race	Oranian
Gender	Male
Birthplace	Unknown
Portrayer	Morris Chapdelaine
First appearance	"Prometheus Unbound"

Tenat was an Oranian minor member of the Lucian Alliance.

He and his partner Jup were sent by the Alliance to trade a case of weapons grade refined Naqahdah to Vala Mal Doran in exchange for the stolen Prometheus. However, Daniel Jackson retook control of the ship before the trade, but was convinced by Vala to land on the planet and greet the two below. Dressed in the armor of a Kull warrior and impervious to their weapons, Jackson stunned Tenat and Jup when the ship came under attack of several Death Gliders.^[20]

As Vala had defied the Alliance, who were eager to make an example of her, Tenat and Jup were sent to capture her. Posing as bounty hunters, Cameron Mitchell and Teal'c pretended to exchange Vala for a load of refined Naqahdah. Although Tenat and Jup had hoped to trick the two alleged bounty hunters, SG-1 double-crossed them and stole their Tel'tak.^[21]

Tenat would later come to command a Lucian Alliance Ha'tak vessel and used it to find the location of the captured Odyssey. After boarding Netan's Ha'tak to inform him of the find, Tenat recognized Mitchell, who was impersonating Kefflin in an attempt to locate the Odyssey himself. Tenat believed that Mitchell was scamming Netan and asked for a part of the spoils. However, Mitchell injected Tenat with the Re'ol chemical to convince him that he was Netan.

When Tenat's Ha'tak was one of two motherships threatening the Odyssey some time later, Mitchell, still impersonating Netan, ordered Tenat to fire on the other Ha'tak. The real Netan then ordered his ship to turn on Tenat's ship, destroying it in the ensuing firefight. Realizing that he was about to die, Tenat cursed Cam Mitchell for causing his imminent death.^[18]

[edit] Tollan characters

[edit] Narim

Stargate character
Narim
Race	Human: Tollan
Gender	Male
Rank	None
Birthplace	Tollan
Portrayer	Garwin Sanford None (film)
First appearance	"Enigma"

Narim was an influential Tollan and personal friend of SG-1.

SG-1 first encountered Narim on the original Tollan homeworld, which had undergone catastrophic volcanic activity, forcing their civilisation to flee the doomed planet. Along with a group of fellow Tollan led by Omoc, Narim was found barely alive by SG-1 and taken back to Earth for medical treatment. After recovering from his injuries, he became friends with Captain Samantha Carter, with whom he developed an apparent attraction. She also gave him a cat named Schrödinger. Eventually, with the help of SG-1, Narim and his people were rescued from the NID, after they were introduced to the Nox, who were eager to take them in while they continued to search for a new home. ^[22]

Narim was eventually returned to Tollana, the new Tollan homeworld, by the Nox. He was again encountered two years later when Skaara crashed on the planet and asked for his Goa'uld to be removed. SG-1 was subsequently invited to defend their personal friend in the resulting triad, a Tollan private law proceeding. During this meeting, Narim made it clear that he still had feelings for Carter, but she informed him that she was not looking for a relationship at that time. Despite this, his attraction to her remained. ^[23]

The last contact with Narim occurred two years later, after Omoc's death, when SG-1 was invited to his memorial service. Suspicious after learning that his government had agreed to give Earth several Ion Cannons, something which was against official policy, he investigated and discovered along with SG-1 that his government, the Curia, was collaborating with the Goa'uld. Due to shield upgrades implemented by Anubis throughout his fleet, the Tollan Ion cannons no longer had the capability of destroying his Ha'tak class vessels. In addition, Narim learned that the Tollan were being forced by the Goa'uld to create weapons of mass destruction capable of penetrating solid matter, including Earth's iris. To spare Earth from destruction, Narim destroyed the all ready produced phase-shifting weapons. Seeing that the Tollan were unable to deliver the weapons, the Goa'uld began attacking the planet.

Narim escorted SG-1 to the Stargate but chose to stay behind to help his people fight a hopeless battle against the Goa'uld. A short time after SG-1 returned to Earth, the SGC received a message directly from Narim, informing the SGC of Tollana's devastation. After the transmission ended, it was assumed that Narim and the Tollan people perished in the Goa'uld attack. ^[24]

• Garwin Sanford also plays Simon Wallis, Dr. Elizabeth Weir's fiancee on Stargate Atlantis.

[edit] Omoc

Stargate character
Omoc
Race	Human: Tollan
Gender	Male
Birthplace	Tollan
Portrayer	Tobin Bell None (film)
First appearance	"Enigma"

Omoc was a personal friend of Narim and hesitant ally of SG-1.

Like most of the Tollan, Omoc was arrogant and set in his ways. He had learned well from the mistakes his people had made with Serita, a neighboring planet that destroyed itself after the Tollan shared their advanced technology with them. Therefore, he firmly believed in his people's isolationist policy and refusal to trade for technology with other, more primitive civilizations, such as the Tau'ri.

In 1998, when his people were forced to evacuate their doomed planet, Tollan, Omoc and his team were assigned to disable the Stargate to prevent any other visitors from being stranded on the dying planet. However, Omoc and his team failed to make it out in time, and he and the rest of his team would have died if SG-1, who were visiting the planet at the time, hadn't rescued them and brought them back to Earth.

Upon waking up in the SGC, Omoc largely refused to interact with members of the Tau'ri, believing them to be too primitive. He was therefore opposed to forming an alliance with Earth, who desperately wanted to acquire Tollan technology. After it became clear that neither Omoc nor his fellow Tollan would share their technology freely, the NID threatened to take the Tollan guests into custody and force information from them. However, Daniel Jackson contacted the Nox against the orders of his superiors, who were eager to help the refugees escape the clutches of the United States military. ^[22]

Omoc and the others were eventually returned to the new Tollan homeworld, Tollana, by the Nox. He became a member of the Tollan Curia, his people's ruling body. However, when his civilization was threatened by Tanith, and the Curia decided to trade advanced Tollan weapons with the Goa'uld in exchange for Tollana's survival, he firmly resisted this agreement, and threatened to expose it to the Tollan people. He was subsequently murdered by the Curia, who made it look like he had suffered a heart attack. Omoc's modest memorial service was attended by several high ranking Tollan and SG-1, whom he somewhat respected.

However, Narim, with SG-1's help, eventually saw through the cover story regarding Omoc's death, and subsequently exposed the conspiracy in the Curia, leading to Tollana's destruction by the Goa'uld. ^[24]

[edit] Travell

Stargate character
Travell
Race	Human: Tollan
Gender	Female
Rank	High Chancellor
Birthplace	Tollan
Portrayer	Marie Stillin None (film)
First appearance	"Pretense"

High Chancellor Travell was a member of the Curia, the Tollan's highest ruling body.

Like most of her people, Travell firmly believed in the Tollan's highest law, and therefore resisted any sharing of their advanced technology with primitive, or less advanced civilisations, such as the Tau'ri. She was also qualified to administrate a triad, a Tollan private law proceeding, as a judge, and has been known to negotiate with other worlds and civilisations, such as Earth and the Goa'uld.

Travell was first encountered by SG-1 in 2000, after Klorel had crashed on Tollana, the new Tollan homeworld. Klorel's host, Skaara, subsequently asked the Tollan to have the Goa'uld removed, and according to Tollan law, a triad was organised. Skaara asked SG-1 to serve as his archon, the Tollan version of an attorney. Travell presided over the hearings, and witnessed the Goa'uld's attempt to conquer her planet. She eventually ruled to have Klorel removed from Skaara's body. ^[23]

After several thefts of advanced Tollan technology by a rogue faction of the NID under the command of Harry Maybourne, Travell threatened to cut all diplomatic relations with Earth. However, after the SGC managed to capture these criminals, she eventually continued to be a strong supporter of her people's alliance with the Tau'ri. ^[25]

When Tollana became threatened by Anubis, represented by his minion Tanith, Travell and the Curia were forced to strike a deal with the Goa'uld. In exchange for the survival of the Tollan people, they would create advanced phase-shifting weapons, capable of penetrating solid matter, even the iris protecting Earth's Stargate. However, SG-1 and the Tollan Narim learned about Travell's plans. Narim eventually destroyed the already produced weapons, breaking the bargain with the Goa'uld. Tanith subsequently attacked, placing Travell and the rest of her people in the midst of a war they could not win. Travell is presumed dead. ^[24]

[edit] Other characters

[edit] Aris Boch

Stargate character
Aris Boch
Race	Unknown
Gender	male
Portrayer	Sam J. Jones
First appearance	"Deadman Switch"

Aris Boch belongs to an unknown race that cannot be taken as a host by the Goa'uld. He is apparently a famous bounty hunter and he lies about having a family. He is addicted to a substance called Roshna that is put in his water. SG-1 encountered Aris Boch by accident on a planet on which Aris had been tracking down a Tok'ra named Korra. Aris thought that Korra was just another Goa'uld (named Kel'tar), but soon found out that there was a difference between Tok'ra and Goa'uld.

His species is human in appearance, but has a unique physiology that prevents them from becoming host to Goa'uld symbiotes. This presented the race with a distinct edge over the Goa'uld, but when the parasitic species learned of it they forced Aris Boch's race into subordination, and conceived the drug roshnah. The entire race is addicted to the drug, which they must ingest on a regular basis in order to survive.

Interaction with SG-1 and Korra made Aris realize that there was indeed a difference between the Goa'uld and Tok'ra. He was especially swayed when Korra attempted to kill himself with a poison capsule so that he would not be put into Sokar's hands and forced to identify other Tok'ra working secretly in Sokar's ranks. Since he had already contacted Sokar, Aris was forced to take in a bounty. Teal'c volunteered to go in Korra's place. This action swayed Aris even more. He hated the Goa'uld just as much as the Tau'ri and Tok'ra.

In order to cover his tracks and allow all of his captives to go free, Aris decided to destroy his ship after reporting "technical difficulties" to Sokar. He and Teal'c used escape pods and the group went their separate ways to escape Sokar's patrols which were on their way in a mothership.

Before they parted company, Aris gave Carter a sample of the roshna with the hope that one day a cure can be found for his race so that they will no longer be dependent upon the Goa'uld.^[26]

[edit] Cassandra

Stargate character
Cassandra in Singularity
Cassandra
Race	Human
Gender	Female
Birthplace	Hanka
Portrayer	Katie Stuart Colleen Rennison Pamela Perry
First appearance	"Singularity"

Cassandra Fraiser is a young girl originally discovered on another planet, and adopted daughter of Janet Fraiser. Young Cassandra was played by the actress Katie Stuart in the episodes "Singularity" and "In the Line of Duty". As an elderly woman, in the episode "1969", she was played by Pamela Perry. Finally, in the episode "Rite of Passage", the teenage Cassandra was portrayed by Colleen Rennison, who previously appeared in the episode Bane as Ally.

Born on the planet Hanka, Cassandra was the sole survivor of a biological plague caused by the Goa'uld System Lord Nirrti. When the planet was later visited by SG-1, the little girl was discovered by the team, and eventually brought back to Earth. There, while the circumstances regarding her survival were being investigated, she formed a close bond with Samantha Carter.

However, during her brief stay at the SGC, it was discovered that Cassandra had an organic naqahdah bomb implanted in her chest. The bomb was planted by Nirrti, who wanted to use Cassandra as a Trojan Horse to destroy the Earth Stargate. Unaware of the danger she posed, Cassandra was taken to an abandoned nuclear facility, in the hopes of containing the explosion.

Unable to leave the girl to die by herself, Captain Carter chose to remain with her. Fortunately, it was discovered that as Cassandra was far enough away from the Stargate, the bomb had shut down on its own, and would eventually be absorbed into her body's tissues. Cassandra was subsequently adopted by Janet Fraiser, with whom she hoped to live a normal life.^[27]

As the naqahdah from Nirrti's bomb remained present in her system, a mineral which is contained within the blood of Goa'uld symbiotes as well, she had the ability to sense the people who are infested, or blended with, a Goa'uld. This ability was put to use after Samantha Carter had been taken over by Jolinar of Malkshur, a Tok'ra symbiote. ^[28]

When Ma'chello switched bodies with Daniel Jackson, Jack O'Neill asked Daniel, in Ma'chello's body, who Cassandra was to test Daniel's claims regarding his identity. ^[29]

However, three years later, the 16-year-old Cassandra began suffering from a retrovirus she had contracted on her home planet several years ago. This virus was used by Nirrti in her experiments to create a hok'taur, a genetically engineered advanced human host. As a result, Cassandra began evolving at an advanced pace, and even exhibited powers of telekinesis.

When SG-1 returned to her home planet in search for a cure, they were able to capture Nirrti herself, who had been hiding from the other System Lords on the planet she once controlled. In order to save Cassandra's life, the SGC was forced to make a deal with her to save the young girl's life. ^[30]

After Janet Fraiser's death during a battle with the Goa'uld, Carter promised she would inform Cassandra about what happened to her adopted mother. ^[31]

When SG-1 accidentally travelled through time, first to the year 1969, and eventually several decades into the future, the team met Cassandra as an old woman. Claiming she had been anticipating the team's arrival for years, she helped SG-1 return to their own time, telling them their journey had only just begun. ^[32]

[edit] Chaka

Stargate character
Chaka
Race	Unas
Gender	Male
Birthplace	P3X-888
Portrayer	Dion Johnstone (young), Patrick Currie (older)
First appearance	"The First Ones"
Key episodes	"Beast of Burden" "Enemy Mine"

Chaka, a primitive Unas from P3X-888, was rather young and not the Alpha male in his tribe of Unas, and was forced to prove his maturity to the others of his tribe before being accepted by them. In order to do so, he kidnapped Daniel Jackson on P3X-888, who was investigating ancient Goa'uld remains at the time. As he was being dragged through the woods, Jackson initially was extremely hostile to his captor. However, over time, the two were able to communicate. Later, Chaka even saved Jackson from being infested with a primitive Goa'uld symbiote.

However, when the two feast on the killed symbiote inside a cave, Jackson discovered drawings on the walls. Apparently, Chaka was a young Unas who intended to capture and kill a beast, in his case Daniel, as a rite of passage. After being marked by Chaka, Jackson was brought before the leader of the Unas tribe.

However, instead of killing Daniel, Chaka pleaded for Daniel's life, hoping that the human would be allowed to join his tribe. After the Alpha male, the leader of the tribe, refused, Chaka was forced to kill him, assisted by SG-1, who had arrived in search for Daniel. With the previous leader dead, Chaka eventually rose to power as the next Alpha male. When Daniel was subsequently asked to join Chaka's tribe, he had to decline. However, the two had since developed somewhat of a friendship. ^[33]

A year later, slave dealers from another world, who also possessed Goa'uld weapons, captured Chaka and abducted him. As their people used Unas as slaves, it was the dealers' intention to either sell Chaka or use him to breed even more slaves. However, as Jackson was monitoring the Unas tribe on P3X-888, he witnessed the capturing of his friend on a video. After convincing General Hammond of the validity of their mission, SG-1 was allowed to free Chaka.

After arriving on the planet Chaka had been abducted to, the team discovered about the use of Unas as slaves for hard labor. Some time later, the team was able to free Chaka, who chose to remain behind to fight for the freedom of his fellow Unas. ^[34] Eventually, Chaka's rebellion was able to obtain freedom for their race, and the Unas and humans brokered a stable, albeit fragile, peace.

When the SGC began mining naqahdah on P3X-403, a planet populated by thousands of aborigine Unas, and encroached on their holy ground, the SG teams found themselves being attacked by the vicious creatures. Hoping to avoid a bloodbath, as the American government was unwilling to mine naqahdah elsewhere, Daniel Jackson invited Chaka to negotiate a deal between the two parties.

Although being met with some hostility by several SGC personnel, Chaka was successful in convincing the Unas to allow the Tau'ri to mine the naqahdah. In addition, the Unas even offered to work in the mines themselves, so that the naqahdah could be used against their old oppressors. ^[35]

[edit] Larrin

Stargate character
Larrin
Race	Human
Gender	Female
Birthplace	unknown
Portrayer	Jill Wagner
First appearance	"Travelers"

Larrin is a member of a Human race known as Travelers, a group of Humans who evaded culling by the Wraith by living entire lives in spaceships capable of Hyperspace. She is likely either a starship captain, or a high ranking member of her government.

She first appeared in the episode Travelers where she managed to have captured Lt Col Sheppard by disabling his Puddle Jumper. She wanted Sheppard because of his ATA Gene, which was required to activate a recently-discovered Aurora class battleship. Knowing that only someone with the ATA Gene could activate it, she wanted the ship to save her people because they no longer had the resources to build more ships and captured Sheppard because she can't risk him saying "no" to their help.

After the ordeal together where the ship was floating in the middle of nowhere in space, they were able to destroy a pursuing Wraith Cruiser after them, but some Wraith snuck into the ship. One of the Wraith fed on her, but Sheppard forced the Wraith to undo it or he would kill the Wraith. Sheppard subsequently convinced her to let him go by proposing an alliance with the Travelers.

[edit] Linea

Stargate character
Linea
Race	Human
Gender	Female
Birthplace	unknown
Portrayer	Bonnie Bartlett (Old), Megan Leitch (Young)
First appearance	"Prisoners"

Linea has her first appearance in the Season 2 episode "Prisoners" when SG-1 get imprisoned on the prison planet Hadante. Linea has an adept ability at manipulating plants and herbs. As SG-1 wonders how a woman like her could end up in prison, Linea explains that she accidentally killed half the population of a planet by producing a vaccine that only served to spread a contagious sickness faster rather than inhibit it. With the help of Linea, SG-1 can escape the planet, taking Linea with them to Earth. Shortly afterwards, it is revealed that Linea is also called "Destroyer of Worlds" as she actually created the sickness as a weapon in a war between island states. Linea flees from Earth, leaving an ominous message on the computer.^[36]

In the Season 3 episode "Past and Present", SG-1 come upon a planet that is stricken with mass amnesia, void of children and "elders". They also meet a young woman named Ke'ra who slowly helps SG-1 uncover the origin of this strange event coined "the Vorlix", which had rejuvenated the population around a year ago while simultaneously blocking all access to their memories. SG-1 realize that Linea initiated the Vorlix and eventually confirm Ke'ra is a rejuvenated Linea. Ke'ra, who helps develop a way to reverse the amnesia, secretly uncovers her own psychological doppelgänger and resolves to commit suicide. Daniel, who had developed quite a rapport with Linea, stops her and Carter develops a medicine to recreate the amnesia. Since Linea is effectively gone, Ke'ra returns to rebuild the collapsing society on her homeplanet.

[edit] Lucius Lavin

Stargate character
Lucius Lavin in Irresistible
Lucius Lavin
Race	Human
Gender	Male
Birthplace	Unknown
Portrayer	Richard Kind
First appearance	"Irresistible"

Lucius Lavin is a human living on a planet in the Pegasus Galaxy who started as a baker and later discovered a special herb. He specialized in baking, herbs and spices, and (apparently) shoving candles into gourds. He was played by Richard Kind, who also played the role of archaeologist Gary Meyers in the original Stargate film, which makes him the only actor to have had roles in both the original Stargate feature film, and Stargate Atlantis.

As a greedy and manipulative baker, Lucius was despised by his fellow townspeople. However, he enjoyed experimenting with his bread and muffins, and would often bake various foreign herbs into his bread. On a visit to M6H-491, Lucius discovered an unusual herb, and collected samples to bake with. Afterwards he was astonished to find that the herbs he had collected were causing his fellow townspeople to eventually be enthralled by him. The boundaries of his fellow citizens dropping away, he soon discovered he was easily the ruler of their society. Eventually he perfected a potion, which worked well for years. At the peak of his success he had six wives.

However, when the Wraith were awakened, they discovered M6H-491, and an alliance of three Hives chose to establish a base of operations there. As such, Lucius was prevented from obtaining more of the herb. Knowing life would soon return to how it was before he had discovered the herb, he became desperate to replenish his supply.

When a team from Atlantis visited Lucius' planet in a Puddle Jumper, Lavin realized that these people might be able to obtain his supplies. He was eager to forge an alliance with the Atlantis expedition, and after exposing himself and his pheromones to Dr. Carson Beckett for an extensive period of time, he managed to get himself invited to the city. There, he manipulated them into using their manpower and resources to recover the herbs from the Wraith stronghold.

For a short period of time, Lucius was effectively in control of Atlantis. Every officer except for John Sheppard- who was immune to the herbs due to him currently suffering from a cold- yielded to his every will. However, when Sheppard bullied Beckett away from the city and gave him time to clear his head, the doctor devised an antidote which neutralized the effects of the pheromone on Lucius and all its recipients. After Lucius was returned to his home planet, the same drug was also administered to his fellow villagers. Knowing he would soon be despised again, Lucius returned to his village in shame. ^[37]

Instead of remaining in his old village, Lucius later moved to another planet in the Pegasus Galaxy. After he discovered an Ancient Personal shield among his possessions, he posed as an invincible hero, winning the hearts and minds of his new fellow villagers. However, although word of his successes in personal combat had already began to spread, the people in his town were getting less and less impressed with their own superhero.

When word of this "hero" reached the Atlantis Expedition, a team led by Colonel Sheppard was dispatched to the planet. When his team arrived, they found the village under siege by a band of thugs, and were threatened until Lucius made quick work of the thugs, protected from their weapons and blows.

Instead of saying goodbye and leaving, Sheppard decided to remain on the planet, ensuring that Lucius would not take advantage of the easily impressed villagers. After following him to a secret meeting with several of the thugs, Sheppard discovered that Lucius hired them to stage the attack to remind his entourage of his superpowers. However, as former Genii soldiers, they were unwilling to accept the meager sum offered by Lavin, and summoned their former commander, Acastus Kolya.

After his arrival, Kolya laid siege to a small village, bent on taking revenge on John Sheppard, torturing Lavin in the process. All of the members of Sheppard's team except the Colonel himself were subsequently captured by Kolya, whom he intented to trade to Dr. Elizabeth Weir for weapons. However, eventually Sheppard, assisted by Lucius, outmaneuvered Kolya, and captured the entire mercenary team. When Kolya refused to surrender, Sheppard was forced to shoot him with his pistol, killing him.

Sheppard later allowed Lavin to keep his personal shield, as the power source had been permanently depleted during the fight with Kolya. However, Sheppard did not inform Lavin of this. Offscreen he ordered a kid to kick him in the groin - not realizing that his shield was depleted. ^[38]

[edit] Ma'chello

Stargate character
Ma'chello in Holiday
Ma'chello
Race	Human
Gender	Male
Birthplace	Unknown
Portrayer	Michael Shanks
First appearance	"Holiday"

Ma'chello was a brilliant inventor who spent most of his life conducting his own personal war against the Goa'uld. He believed that he was responsible for saving billions of lives throughout the galaxy.

Ma'chello invented many devices designed to combat the Goa'uld, which were encountered by SG-1 on two occasions. He developed numerous forms of technology to infiltrate and kill the Goa'uld ranks, and constructed his own unique language to classify his research. He was declared a prime target by the System Lords, and Teal'c himself was ordered to capture him once, without success.

For the most part of his life, Ma'chello was hunted by the Goa'uld. When the System Lords located his world, two billion of his people died rather than turn him over to them. However, Ma'chello's wife was secretly implanted with a Goa'uld, who then betrayed him and turned him over to the System Lords. In order to learn his many secrets, Ma'chello was subsequently tortured, and was supposed to become a host to a Goa'uld. However, before the implantation, he managed to kill several Jaffa and was able to escape.

Ma'chello went into hiding, and was able to elude the System Lords for several years. However, as his body started to age, he was forced to create a device to sustain his body through a form of suspended animation. He also constructed a machine capable of switching the consciousnesses from one person to another.

Eventually, the planet on which Ma'chello chose to hide was visited by SG-1, where they found several assorted devices. Ma'chello was automatically awakened from stasis, and introduced himself to the team of explorers. Hoping to hide his face permanently, he tricked Daniel Jackson into testing one of his machines, switching bodies and fainting in the process.

Both men were taken back to the base unconscious. However, when Ma'chello woke up, he claimed that he was not Ma'chello, but in fact Daniel Jackson in Ma'chello's body. Unfortunately, the real Ma'chello, now in Dr. Jackson's body, had gone off the base and was loose in Colorado Springs, visiting its restaurants and making friends with a homeless man named Fred.

After Ma'chello paid using one of Jackson's credit cards, he was tracked down and arrested. He was subsequently taken back to the SGC, where he requested to be allowed to live out his life in Daniel's body. In exchange, he would teach Samantha Carter his encoding system, helping Earth to understand his anti-Goa'uld technology. However, after Daniel noted that Ma'chello, who believed he was "owed" a new life because of the sacrifices he had made, was no different than a Goa'uld taking a host against his will, Ma'chello chose to return to his body. Moments after returning to his own body, he died, his last words being to thank Daniel for his 'holiday'. ^[39]

Several months later, one of Ma'chello's anti-Goa'uld technologies was discovered on an abandoned planet where it had claimed the lives of the Linvers, a group of nine minor Goa'uld opposing the System Lords. However, the biological weapons designed to kill symbiotes caused schizophrenia in non-hosts, and one of them infected Daniel Jackson. The remaining biological weapons were eventually neutralized by injecting a protein marker, under normal circumstances only present in former Goa'uld hosts, into the infected persons' blood stream. ^[40]

[edit] Martin Lloyd

Stargate character
Martin Lloyd in Point of No Return
Martin Lloyd
Race	Human
Gender	Male
Birthplace	Unknown
Portrayer	Willie Garson None (film)
First appearance	"Point of No Return"

Martin Lloyd is a human from another planet who, along with a group of others, deserted from their military fighting a losing war with the Goa'uld. After Martin learned of the destruction of his people, he chose to remain on Earth, living a relatively normal life.

As the war between Martin's people and the Goa'uld was taking a turn for the worst, Lloyd and the rest of his ship's crew were sent away to find allies. When they discovered the Tau'ri, they instead chose to desert and hide on the remote planet. They hid their ship somewhere in Earth's solar system and crashed in Montana using an escape pod.

However, over time, Martin became convinced that deserting their people was wrong and tried to convince the others to return. His comrades weren't swayed and, realizing Martin was now a liability, drugged him with pharmaceuticals that made him lose most of his memories. They kept his home under surveillance and ensured he continued to remain oblivious about his alien origins. One of his former shipmates posed as his psychiatrist, Dr. Peter Tanner, who continued to prescribe him various drugs laced with the memory-loss chemical.

Because of the memory-loss, Lloyd began suffering from severe paranoia and became a conspiracy theorist. He felt he was being watched by the government, and even kept a detailed diary of his daily activities. Eventually, Lloyd became aware of the Stargate Project and demanded a meeting with Colonel Jack O'Neill. As more and more of Martin's memories began to resurface, SG-1 searched his home in Montana, discovering the drugs Lloyd was taking.

Eventually becoming aware he was an alien, he convinced O'Neill to follow him to the location of his buried escape pod. After they had found the craft and Lloyd's memory had completely returned, he provided the SGC with a Stargate address to his homeworld. However, SG-1 found it annihilated by the Goa'uld, with no hint of any survivors. ^[41]

Martin returned to Earth where he tried to live a normal life. The US Air Force provided him with a job, and it was expected that he would never be heard of again. However, Martin eventually became disgruntled with his life style, and started taking the drugs again voluntarily, to forget what he had seen. He hoped that if he would take the drugs long enough, the memory-loss would become permanent.

But as his latent memories began to resurface again, Martin created a campy science fiction television show based on the real Stargate program and SG-1. The show was picked up with the name Wormhole X-Treme! and Martin was made a creative consultant.

However, in the meantime, Martin's spaceship was returning to Earth because of a timed homing mechanism. As the approaching ship was discovered by the SGC, SG-1 tracked down Martin once again. O'Neill found him and tried to help Martin recover his memories once again. When he did remember, Martin told the team that the ship approaching Earth was coming to pick up his former comrades. The aliens left Earth, but Martin stayed behind to continue working with the producers of Wormhole X-Treme!. ^[42]

Although Wormhole X-Treme only aired three episodes, DVD sales were successful and the studio approached Martin about developing a television movie based on the series. Martin approached the SGC to review the movie script, and The Pentagon agreed for plausible deniability reasons. Martin was excited to conduct a spin session with SG-1, although the team itself was less amused. However, eventually the movie was cancelled, although the series was renewed instead. The renewed Wormhole X-Treme! went on for ten years with Martin Lloyd as producer. ^[43]

[edit] Shifu

Stargate character
Shifu
Race	Human: Harcesis
Gender	Male
Birthplace	Abydos
Relatives	Apophis (father, deceased) Sha're (mother, deceased) Daniel Jackson (stepfather)
Portrayer	Lane Gates
First appearance	"Secrets"

Shifu is the son of Sha're, Daniel Jackson's wife, and of the host of the Goa'uld Apophis. Shifu was conceived while Sha're was the host to the Goa'uld Amonet and he was intended to become Apophis' new host. As he was the offspring of two Goa'uld hosts, Shifu possessed the Goa'uld genetic memory and was referred to as "Harcesis." Shifu was born in the episode "Secrets", and was first named in the episode "Absolute Power".

After a year of searching for his wife, Sha’re, who had been taken as a host by the Goa’uld Amonet, Apophis' Queen, Daniel Jackson returned to Abydos only to discover that Sha’re was there with her father and was pregnant with a Harsesis, Apophis' intended new host. As the System Lord Heru-ur was also looking for the child of his most hated enemy, Daniel Jackson hid the child from both him and his mother. ^[3]

Hidden safely on Abydos for a little while, the boy’s whereabouts were eventually discovered by Amonet and she took him. ^[4] She sent her closest aide to Kheb with the Harsesis child in an attempt to keep him safe from Heru'ur and the other Goa’uld who wanted the child killed. With help from Bra'tac and Teal'c, Jackson was able to determine the location of Kheb, long rumored to be a mythical place, and the team went there in search of the child. There, Jackson discovered that the boy was taken care of by a powerful energy being called Oma Desala. Believing the child would be safer with her than on Earth, Daniel left him in her care. ^[44]

About a year later, the Harsesis returned to Abydos, where he manifested himself as a tornado, and called for Daniel. When Kasuf summoned Jackson to Abydos, where he answered the call, the tornado revealed a young boy inside. The boy called himself Shifu, and returned to Earth with Jackson to learn more about his mother.

However, the Tok'ra and SGC were more interested in the genetic knowledge Shifu possessed, and proceeded to inquire about it. When Daniel Jackson again asked the boy about the genetic knowledge, he was told that the evil within him was too strong to resist, and that Oma had taught him that the only way to win was to deny the battle. Unable to understand, Daniel Jackson was placed into a coma-like dream state by Shifu. During the coma, he lived out a dream where he possessed all the knowledge he sought from the Harsesis, and learned that his knowledge and power would corrupt him terribly.

Upon awakening, Daniel understood the dangerous nature of the knowledge within Shifu's mind. When it became clear, even to the other members of SG-1, that Shifu would never reveal what they wanted him to reveal, he was ascended, probably by Oma Desala. ^[5]
