Teal'c

In the science fiction television series Stargate SG-1, Teal'c is a Jaffa who is one of the leading authorities on Goa'uld on Earth. Once serving the System Lord Apophis as his First Prime, Teal'c defected in the first episode of the series after Colonel Jack O'Neill convinced him that he could save all the people in the prison with them. Teal'c turned his weapon on his fellow Jaffa and, with the help of SG-1, freed the humans. In the fourth-season episode "The Light" Teal'c states that he is 101 years old.

Family and Love Life

Teal'c was married to Drey'auc of the Cordai Plains and they had a son, Rya'c. He left his family behind when he betrayed Apophis, and they were forced to life as pariahs. He returned to Chulak to prevent his son from being implanted with a symbiote, but Rya'c was too ill and finally Teal'c gave him his own symbiote. He got a new young one (Bloodlines).

After he left again, Drey'auc married Fro'tak to give her son a better life. When Teal'c returned, Apophis captured Rya'c and brainwashed him into publicly denouncing his father. Teal'c thought his son was only playing along. The SG-1 rescued him and brought him and Drey'auc back to Earth (Fro'tak had being killed when trying to betray them). Once there, however, they discovered Rya'c was really brainwashed and conditioned to immolate himself to destroy the Stargate Command. Teal'c had to shoot him with the zat to break the conditioning. Rya'c and Drey'auc went to live to the Land of Light after that (Family), though eventually moved to a Jaffa rebel camp.

Ishta is the leader of the female Jaffa in Hak'tyl. They rebelled against the Goa'uld Moloc, because he ordered the murder of any female Jaffa baby. She thought the Jaffa Rebellion was useless, and that put a strain on their relationship for a while. They still keep in touch months later, however. His son told him than things would be easier for everyone else if he and Ishta just admit they love each other (Birthright, Sacrifices).
