Tyre

From SGCommand

Tyre was a Satedan military soldier and worked for the Satedan Planetary Forces. His home planet was Sateda before it fell in 1998. He was highly trained in weapons, melee and hand-to-hand combat.

[edit] Biography

He was on another planet, trapped with four other Satedans when Sateda was being culled by the Wraith, and he was captured along with Ara, Rakai, Morika, and Hemi. The Wraith offered them to die with the past or live for the future. The Wraith started draining their live to the last point and gave it back over and over again until he, Ara, Rakai finally accepted but Morika and Hemi died due to their weakness. For the next few years, they travelled to other planets, where they spent much time eating, drinking, and killing other Wraith.

They were former friends of Ronon Dex, and were reacquainted with him when he and Teyla Emmagan found them at a tavern. They offered Ronon and Atlantis 1 to join them on a mission to destroy a Wraith technology base that was working on a way to turn off the Asurans' attack code. The mission was in reality was a deception in order for the Wraith to capture Rodney McKay and force him to fid a way to deactivate the Replicator attack code. Atlantis 1 learned of the deception, and Ronon challenged the three Wraith worshippers to a fight where both Ara and Rakai died, but Tyre escaped. (ATL: "Reunion")

After the incident, the Wraith were dissapointed in him, and decided he was no longer useful, so they let him loose, to serve as an example to all who defide the Wraith. Also, since he no longer recieved the Wraith enzyme from his everlasting Gift of Life, he has become addicted to it, and gets into withdrawal. He wanted to rejoin the Wraith cause, so he lured Ronon into a trap, captures him and sent him to Sarif Sur. Initially, Ronon wanted to kill him, but later wanted to help him. However, Tyre alerted the Wraith to capture Ronon, but instead of sending him back, the Wraith Commander knocked him out and left him for dead.

Eventually, Sheppard's team found him and sent him back to Atlantis, where he goes through withdrawal. After eventually recovering, he insisted that he would lead the team to Ronon at a Wraith facility, but double crossed them to capture him so that he can rejoin the Wraith cause, but the team eventually learned he double crossed the Wraith and let the teams go. He let the teams escape, and handed Sheppard his sword, a sign that he does not intend to follow them out. He kills himself when he detonated C-4 and destroyed the facility. He sacrifices himself as way of doing something right, despite the fact that he was beyond forgiveness. After that act, Ronon considers Tyre a friend and mourns his loss. (ATL: "Broken Ties")
