Administrator of Ver Ager

Summary

The Administrator of Ver Ager was the religious leader of his village on a planet thought to be the original home of the Ancients (when they were called the Altera). He was introduced in the episosde, 9.02 "Avalon Part 2".

Character Biography

As an ordinary human, the Administrator was the leader of the worshippers of the Ori in his village of Ver Ager. He led the people in their religious services and was looked upon with authority when determining a person's worthiness. (9.02 "Avalon Part 2")

When Daniel Jackson and Vala Mal Doran used the Ancient intergalactic communications device to form psychic links with a married couple named Harrid and Sallis Cicera, they met the Administrator through Harrid's and Sallis' bodies. They attended a six-hour long prostration service led by the Administrator in the courtyard of the village. Afterwards, Daniel and Vala met Fannis, a friend of Harrid's and Sallis' who was also a fellow-heretic. Fannis accepted Daniel's story about being in Harrid's body and then pursuaded Vala, who was in Sallis' body, to impersonate Sallis at the "sharing of leaves" event being hosted by the Administrator's wife. Unfortunately, Fannis failed to mention the prayer that Vala should have said at the tea and the Administrator's wife declared her possessed. The Administrator immediately had Vala taken to the Ara, the sacrificial altar in the middle of the courtyard, where she was to be burned alive and given into final judgment of the Ori who would ultimately determine her worthiness. (9.02 "Avalon Part 2")

Vala, in Sallis' body, was burned to death while Daniel, in Harrid's body, was held back and prevented from taking action. But, Vala/Sallis were resurrected by a Prior of the Ori who was sent by the Ori to find out more about Daniel and Vala and their claims to be from another galaxy. The Adminstrator bowed to the Prior like all of the other villagers. (9.02 "Avalon Part 2")

Daniel and Vala were returned to the village after spending some time in the City of the Gods on the Plains of Celestis. They were being used as bait to determine the identity of their fellow unbelievers. Fannis was discovered by the Prior and killed after he helped Daniel and Vala in forming a complete link through the use of a communications terminal on their end. The Prior ended the two-way link and took Daniel and Vala to the altar to be burned, but the one-way link was severed when Mitchell and Teal'c destroyed the communications terminal at the SGC. It was Harrid and Sallis who were burned to death. (9.03 "Origin Part 3")

As a reward for his devotion and service, the Administrator was promoted to become a Prior. He was brought to the City of the Gods and permitted to look upon the flames of enlightenment, the manifestation of the Ori, and there, he was advanced in his evolution and given great powers, knowledge, and understanding. (9.03 "Origin Part 3")

Now a Prior of the Ori, the Administrator was sent to the Milky Way Galaxy via the Stargate to the planet P8X-412. This planet was known to Vala and she pursuaded Mitchell to let her go there to warn them of the Priors and the Ori. After Vala revealed that she had deceived these people into thinking that she was the Goa'uld Qetesh for four years after the symbiote had been removed from her, she was imprisoned. Mitchell and Teal'c pursuaded the betrayed villagers that Vala deserved a trial and as Daniel spoke in her defense, the Administrator interrupted the trial and began a debate with Daniel. Somehow, the Prior recognized Daniel and spoke to him as if the battle was of a very personal nature. The Prior sickened the villagers with a plague similar to that which had killed off most of the Ancients long ago and then, in his show of power, healed them. Daniel's words proved ineffectual, as did Vala's attempt to heal the people through the use of the Goa'uld healing device. When the villagers pledged their devotion to the Ori, the Prior stood gloating in Daniel's face and told him to tell others of what he had seen. (9.05 "The Powers That Be")

Continuing in his role as a Prior of the Ori, the Administrator's next assignment was to convert the Free Jaffa Nation into one of the largest groups of Ori worshippers in the Milky Way Galaxy. He went to Dakara and began at the top, targeting Gerak, leader of the High Council. Gerak long believed in the Path to Enlightenment and felt that Origin offered that Path freely to the Jaffa. The Administrator saw, however, that Gerak was resisting the forced conversion of all Jaffa because of the Jaffa's long enslavement by the Goa'uld. In order to gain Gerak's devotion completely, the Administrator used his staff to establish a link with the Ori in their home galaxy. Gerak's mind was given awareness in that galaxy where he stood before the Ori's Flames of Enlightment in the City of the Gods on Celestis. The Ori advanced Gerak in his evolution through this link and Gerak become a Prior. (9.10 "The Fourth Horseman Part 1")
