Changes: Marduk

Revision as of 15:59, 1 August 2006

Marduk was a Goa'uld. He lead an attack on the temple on Jebbana, taking Kendra as a host for another Goa'uld. Marduk was also a cruel tyrant, and eventually, his own priests rebelled against him. He was locked in his sarcophagus with a creature that ate him alive, only to be healed by the sarcophagus to start it all again. He escaped into the creature, and later escaped the sarcophagus when a Russian Stargate team awoke him. He cacooned himself in the creature, but later took Major Vallarin as a host. Marduk was thought killed when SG-1 detonated C-4, destroying the ziggurat and apparantly killing Marduk.(SG1: "Thor's Hammer", "The Tomb")

Warning: The following section is non-canon.

However, due to the ribbon device he had acquired when freed from his sarcophagus, he was able to survive the blast but was burried beneath tons of rock. If not for the timely arrival of Anubis he would surely have died. Anubis, amused by finding Marduk in his current state, restored him to health intending to torture and interrogate him but found that the continnual trauma of dying and being reborn had taken its toll on Marduk's mind.

Now believing himself to be Ramman, a minor system lord of rain and thunder whom Marduk had once destroyed earlier in his life. This amused Anubis further, and he took this new "Ramman" into his service, setting him up as one of his many underlings. He placed Ramman in direct control of his agent Osiris, though neither of them were aware of their former background together. Anubis simply waited to see if "Ramman" would regain his true self once more and was curious to see what havoc he would cause if he ever did.

Though it is unknown if it ever happened, it was thought that if "Ramman" was exposed to any SGC personnel then he might recall his original identity and with it remember that his current host contained intimate details of the Tau'ri Stargate programs; details that he would surely use to bargain his way back into power.
