Welcome to the Stargate SG-1 Characters (the good guys)

The main characters (good guys) from Stargate SG-1 are below. Click on the picture for a larger version ...

 
General George Hammond

GEORGE HAMMOND

As the Commanding Officer of the Stargate Command (SGC) he has authority over all SG teams. His mission statement is to analyze the threat potential of alien races defend Earth from possible hostile invasion and to analyze and recover technologies for study and further development.

 
 
 
Jack O'Neill

JACK O'NEILL

As the commanding officer of SG-1, Jack O'Neill has frequently defended Earth from hostile invasion and found time to explore new worlds and return new technologies to Earth. Jack had a tragedy in his life when he lost his son Charlie in a accidentally shooting incident with O'Neill's own gun. Jack is a very funny character who plays off well against the serious Teal'c and Daniel Jackson.

 
 
 
Daniel Jackson

DANIEL JACKSON

Dr. Jackson joined the SG-1 team on a voluntary basis to study the cultures of other planets. He holds a Ph.D. in Anthropology as well as a Ph.D. in Linguistics. He is an expert in ancient cultures and languages in addition to current ones; he speaks over 20 languages including ancient Egyptian. His humanistic, liberal approach is often in conflict with O'Neill's militaristic approach.

 
 
 
Sam Carter

SAMANTHA CARTER

Samantha Carter mission statement is to ascertain possible hostile threats, to continue analysis of Stargate technology, and to analyze and return materials, technologies and knowledge for further development.  She in an astrophysics genius, holding a Ph.D. in Quantum Mechanics and is a plasma/particle physics expert. She is also an expert on gate technology, having read every bit of information known to exist and has studied the permutations of the gate symbols at length.

 
 
 
Tealc

TEAL'C

Teal'c is a member of the alien race known as the Jaffa. Similar to humans in overall appearance, Jaffas have an  marsupial pouch in the abdomen to nurse infant parasitic bugs, Goa'uld larva. There is a strong symbiotic relationship between them as the Jaffa is guaranteed powerful healing abilities and immunity to myriad diseases including all viral or bacterial infections for as long as he carries the symbiote. For this reason, Jaffa live to be very old. Teal'c, although he looks much younger, is actually over 90 years old. After a seven year gestation period, the mature Goa'uld parasite seeks out a new host, (usually human). His main reason for joining SG-1 was to try to set straight the misdeeds of his past and to win freedom for his people from the Goa'uld.

 
 
 
Janet Fraiser

JANET FRAISER

Dr. Fraiser is a military doctor. General Hammond hand picked her to work in the SGC because of her expertise in exotic diseases. Dr. Fraiser's skill and compassion enable her to face the most peculiar cases brought to her by SG-1 and all the other SG teams.

 
 
 
Tokra from Stargate

TOK'RA

 

Though the same species as the Goa'uld, the Tok'ra are a resistance movement who live in voluntary symbiosis with their human hosts -- and thus refuse to be called "Goa'uld" because of their philosophical differences. More than 2,000 years ago a Goa'uld queen, Egeria, realized what true evil the species was and made a decision to turn against the System Lords. All her offspring have genetically inherited the same ideals, and the Tok'ra movement was born.

 
 
 
Thor of the Asgard

ASGARD

Earth's most powerful ally. The Asgard have assumed the personae of Norse gods. Physiologically, the Asgard average about one meter in height, with grayish skin tones, small, skinny limbs, large heads and black eyes. Despite the Asgard's small physical stature, their size is no comparison to their intellect. They have successfully developed a multitude of advanced technologies that dwarf those of the Goa'uld, including faster-than-light travel that can launch an Asgard vessel from one galaxy to another in minutes. For all of the Asgard's technologies and intellectual capabilities they have been forced into a deadlock with the battle with an artificial species in their galaxy: the Replicators.

 
 
 
Tollan

TOLLAN

One of the most advanced races of transplanted humans encountered by the S.G.C., the Tollan are stubborn to the point of arrogance, and believe any species with lesser technology than theirs is "inferior." Their highest law forbids them from sharing any of their technology with a less-advanced species. Aside from their arrogance, the Tollan are a peaceful people who believe in an almost xenophobic lifestyle when it comes to other species. Recently the Tollan suffered a major defeat at the hands of the Goa'uld Anubis who wiped out the Tollan's capital city from orbit. The Tollan evacuated their planet in ships, but many were shot down. It is unknown if any survived the attack.

 
 
 
Ancient from Stargate

ANCIENTS

The Ancients were once a race of advanced humans who were the original architects of the Stargate network. According to the Asgard, they moved on from our part of space long ago. In fact, the Ancients learned to ascend to a higher plane of existence when a great plague swept across the galaxy. Many died out, but those who learned to ascend shed their corporeal form. The Ancients seeded human life on many hundreds of worlds, as they had once done in our galaxy. They lived there for millions of years -- but then they came upon a planet where a powerful enemy slept.  The  Ancients have ascended into an omni-present, ethereal beings who feel they must remove themselves from interaction with all cultures beneath their non-corporeal plane. To merely interact with an individual beneath is breaking their law. Assisting a lower being in discovering ascension is punished by banishment. Meddling in circumstances that change the direction of a civilization is by far the most dire offence. Though the Ancients are not physically present, their actions have visibly altered the efforts of SG-1, among others. The Atlantis expedition is living in the Ancients' advanced city. Despite the fact that they are non-corporeal, they are still a powerful force to be reckoned with.

 
 
 
Nox from Stargate

NOX

Though they appear to be primitive forest-dwellers, the pacifist, nature-loving Nox are one of the galaxy's oldest and most advanced races. Capable of living hundreds of Earth years, the Nox believe they are symbiotically linked with nature and treasure the world in which they live. Physically, Nox are very similar to humans, though their hair is elaborately different. Both hair and clothing reflect their forest surroundings. Nox stick to a strong code of ethics, believing everything and everyone is sacred. They refuse to take part in any plot to do harm to another if they may be directly responsible. They will not even fight to defend themselves.
