Biography

1996

When the original team from Earth come to Abydos through the Stargate, Skaara met and befriended Colonel Jack O'Neill, whom he appeared to idolize somewhat. When Dr. Daniel Jackson was being forced to execute O'Neill and his team, he attacked the Horus Guards and freed them. Later, he and the other Abydonians rebelled and killed the rest of the guards, gaining their freedom. (Stargate)

1997

When Colonel Jack O'Neill returned to Abydos, he stayed at the Abydos pyramid with Major Louis Ferretti while Dr. Daniel Jackson showed O'Neill the Cartouche. When Apophis arrived on Abydos, he and Sha're were kidnapped and taken to Chulak. Once there, he was made host to Apophis' son Klorel. (SG1: "Children of the Gods")

1998

When Apophis and Klorel launched an attack of Earth, Klorel was shot with a Zat'nik'tel and the energy suppressed the Goa'uld. Skaara was able to talk to Colonel Jack O'Neill for a short time before Klorel reasserted himself. Later, when Klorel attempted to raise his shields, Skaara was able to stop him momentarily but Klorel was able to overpower him and raise the shield. Eventually, Apophis and Klorel escaped the ship by Stargate. (SG1: "Within the Serpent's Grasp", "The Serpent's Lair")

2000

When a Death Glider Klorel was piloting crashed on Tollana, Skaara managed to resurface and begged the Tollans for help. However, since Klorel refused to give up the body, the Tollans held a Triad to determine who had priority over the body. Skaara's archons were O'Neill and Daniel Jackson while Klorel was defended by Lord Zipacna. Travell chaired the Triad while Lya served as neutral archon. The decision was eventually reached that Skaara had priority on the grounds that he would otherwise live as a slave and that life as a slave is not life at all. (SG1: "Pretense")

2003

Skaara returned to Abydos. He was later killed defending the planet from Anubis, but he Ascended with the help of Oma Desala. (SG1: "Full Circle")

Behind the scenes

Skaara and his father Kasuf, played by Erick Avari, are the only characters to be played by the same actors in the film and the series.
Although Kasuf was the father of both Skaara and Sha're in the film, his connection to Skaara is overlooked in the TV series, in which he seems to have only a daughter, Sha're.
