[edit] Biography

This Wraith was a member of Todd's crew and served as his Executive Officer during the negotiations with the Atlantis Expedition in 2008. During the meeting, Doctor Jennifer Keller revealed that she had modified the Iratus bug retrovirus to an extent that it would remove the Wraith's ability to feed on Humans, but also their need to do it to survive. This did not impress Kenny who believed that it would weaken their faction as they might lose their longevity as well as healing abilities. However, he accepted Todd's decision but worked in their plan to "convince" the Primary Hive queen of their alliance.

While Todd went with the disguised Teyla Emmagan to secure the loyalty of the rest of the alliance, Kenny was left in charge of his Hive ship. When the Primary's Hive ship went into an unexpected hyperspace jump, the members of AR-1 believed it to a be possible betrayal. Kenny, however, promised it was not and hositilities almost broke out when Ronon Dex brought his gun to bear on Kenny. Colonel John Sheppard though accepted that Todd's hive were unaware of the Primary's surprise action.

Kenny took the ship to track Todd's subspace tracking device and emerged near a nebula only to discover that the Primary's hive had moved again to one of their more populated human worlds. Colonel Sheppard informed Kenny to drop them off at a Stargate as they would reach faster through the Gateship which he allowed. (ATL: "The Queen")

In early 2009 Kenny organized a mutiny against Todd and stole several Zero Point Modules, which they had acquired during the destruction of Asuras, to power a formidable new version of the hive ship. Todd contacted Atlantis and urged them to destroy Kenny's new Hive before they became a major threat to them both.

The Expedition sends the Daedalus to engage the new hive ship, but the Z.P.M. powered vessel proves itself an impressive opponent, crippling the Daedalus before making a sudden and inexplicable jump into hyperspace. The hive received a weak subspace signal in Wraith code. The signal was sent through subspace, from another reality. The message contained a very important set of coordinates -- the Wraith had finally found the location of Earth and it's defenses.

The hive ship dropped out of hyperspace before reaching Earth, where they fought two Tau'ri vessels, the Apollo and the Sun Tzu. The ships failed miserably to stop the Kenny's Hive and they continued their travel towards Earth. When the hive ship arrived they placed themselves in orbit over the Earth's moon. Kenny sent a squadron of Wraith darts towards Area 51 in order to destroy the control chair of the Ancient outpost on Earth. The attack was successful and with the outpost neutralized Earth was now completely defenseless.

A team of Tau'ri soldiers dial into the Hive and attempts to infiltrate the ship. Meanwhile, Sheppard successfully infiltrates the hive with his F-302 through the Dart bay, planning to nuke the ship from the inside. In a desperate battle onboard the hive ship, Ronon is stabbed in a fight with two Wraith warriors. The knife has pierced his lung and he dies from the resulting blood loss; with Teyla and McKay visibly upset, Lorne forces them to leave his body behind. Kenny revived Ronon for interrogation, but the team was able to rescue him. During the rescue, Sheppard kills Kenny.

When Kenny was about to attack Earth, Atlantis came out of hyperspace in position between the Hive and Earth in order to buy the Stargate Command more time. Atlantis takes the brunt of the hive ship's assault on Earth and launches a barrage of drones in retaliation. The sheer force of the Hive's weapons fire is pushing the city ship into Earth's atmosphere, and it is straining on the shields.

The team on the hive ship manages to escape, and the nuke successfully detonates, destroying the hive ship, ending Kenny's attack on Earth. (ATL: "Enemy at the Gate")
