Kotah was a giant Android built by the Ancients to guard one of their planets.
Biography[]
Some time ago, Sobek arrived in orbit of what he believed to be an Ancient Treasure planet. He sent his Jaffa down to the surface to breach the central temple. When they couldn't find a way in, Sobek used his ship's main weapon and collapsed it. This attack activated Kotah, who shot energy through his sword to destroy Sobek's ship.
Since his activation, Kotah protected the remains of the Ancient temple, as well as guarded the Stargate. He would kill anyone who attempted to leave the planet.
At some point, Dr. Daniel Jackson arrived and was greeted by Kotah staring him down and then proceded to block the Stargate's event horizon with his sword.
Shortly after, Canno and Hamm attempted to leave by using Hamm as a distraction at the Dial Home Device, while Canno ran for the gate. However, Kotah still caught sight of Canno and he killed him by stabbing him through with his sword. (Stargate: "Daniel Jackson 2")
A couple of days later, Raffa broke one of the vault's locks, which triggered Kotah and he began to search the area. Before he could find Raffa and Kyrana, Daniel messed with the vault locks in order to convince him the vaults where fine. (Stargate: "Daniel Jackson 3", "Daniel Jackson 4")
Two days later, Raffa set off an explosive in the vaults, which prompted Kotah to begin his attack by shooting energy from his sword which hit the vaults. Right before Kotah could strike Hem'nok and the Jaffa, Daniel used information that he translated in the vaults to locate Kotah's energy source in his heel and removed it, which deactivated him. (Stargate: "Daniel Jackson 4")
