Va'lar was a Jaffa in the service of Apophis and a friend of Teal'c. He encouraged Teal'c to not question his god, though Teal'c wonders what kind of a god would punish a son for loving his father.
Years later, with doubt about Apophis' godhood growing in his heart, Teal'c reached a turning-point: his friend Va'lar returned defeated from battle, and Apophis ordered Teal'c to kill him. He brought him down to the planet's surface where the great battle had been fought against the forces of Ra -- and Teal'c spared his life. He told Va'lar to escape to a nearby village, and returned with the dead symbiote of another fallen Jaffa.
Years later, Teal'c returns to the planet where the previous battle against Ra was fought. Following an order from Apophis, Teal'c burns a village of Ra's followers to the ground -- the same village where he had sent his friend to live. He had spared Va'lar's life only to take it again, for fear that Apophis would discover what he had done. (SG1: "Threshold")
