Stargate Characters

Here are the main good guys from the Stargate world. This is not an exhaustive list, just those that I feel had the biggest impact.

TOK'RA

Though the same species as the Goa'uld, the Tok'ra are a resistance movement who live in voluntary symbiosis with their human hosts -- and thus refuse to be called "Goa'uld" because of their philosophical differences. More than 2,000 years ago a Goa'uld queen, Egeria, realized what true evil the species was and made a decision to turn against the System Lords. All her offspring have genetically inherited the same ideals, and the Tok'ra movement was born.

ASGARD

Earth's most powerful ally. The Asgard have assumed the personae of Norse gods. Physiologically, the Asgard average about one meter in height, with grayish skin tones, small, skinny limbs, large heads and black eyes. Despite the Asgard's small physical stature, their size is no comparison to their intellect. They have successfully developed a multitude of advanced technologies that dwarf those of the Goa'uld, including faster-than-light travel that can launch an Asgard vessel from one galaxy to another in minutes. For all of the Asgard's technologies and intellectual capabilities they have been forced into a deadlock with the battle with an artificial species in their galaxy: the Replicators.

TOLLAN

One of the most advanced races of transplanted humans encountered by the S.G.C., the Tollan are stubborn to the point of arrogance, and believe any species with lesser technology than theirs is "inferior." Their highest law forbids them from sharing any of their technology with a less-advanced species. Aside from their arrogance, the Tollan are a peaceful people who believe in an almost xenophobic lifestyle when it comes to other species. Recently the Tollan suffered a major defeat at the hands of the Goa'uld Anubis who wiped out the Tollan's capital city from orbit. The Tollan evacuated their planet in ships, but many were shot down. It is unknown if any survived the attack.
