[edit] Biography

While Colonel Marshall Sumner was somewhat dismissive of her, Major John Sheppard was much more friendly, and the two became quick friends. She soon became an integral part of Sheppard's team. (ATL: "Rising")

Teyla has been able to show great empathy for others, even to the Wraith Ellia and Michael Kenmore. (ATL: "Instinct", "Michael")

Teyla has a unique ability to sense the Wraith, due to one of her ancestors having Wraith DNA spliced into their genetic makeup. Since this was discovered, she has been able to make contact with Wraith minds on occassion, with varying degrees of success. (ATL: "The Gift", "The Siege, Part 1", "Submersion")

After Elizabeth Weir disappeared and Colonel Samantha Carter was appointed Atlantis commander, Teyla took Doctor Jennifer Keller to New Athos for routine innoculations, only to discover that the Athosians were missing. After the offworld medical check, Keller discovered that Teyla was pregnant. A famed seer named Davos soon visited Atlantis. He privately told her that he was aware of her pregnancy and that the Athosians were alive, but he did not know where they were. Teyla has still not told Sheppard or Carter that she is pregnant, but Keller has reminded her that it will soon be obvious. (ATL: "Missing", "The Seer")
