Quindosim

The Quindosim was a brotherhood of fifteen monks who existed on the planet Dagan. Their sole purpose was the protection of the Potentia, in reality a ZPM, that was given to the order by the Ancients who asked the monks to safeguard it until they returned.

One of the fears of the order was that they would be destroyed during a Wraith culling which would have resulted in the Potentia being lost to all. As such, they created a series of nine stone markers which, when combined, would reveal the location of the Quindosims treasure. This would be a wise choice to make as the original brotherhood was actually destroyed in a Wraith culling but enough survived to hide the Potentia within the Quindosim chamber.

The composition of this brotherhood consisted of a master handler, five protectors and nine stone carriers. Their latest master handler of the Potentia was Allina who decided to hide the Potentia in a new location after seeing members of the Atlantis Expedition and Genii Confederation fight to take the device.
