Nirrti - Indian - Was a Hindu Vedic goddess of death, destruction and terrifying evil. She has been connected with the goddess kali as one aspect of the mother-creator-liberator deity. Nirrti is said to live in the south, considered the land of the dead. As a deity, she exists to punish people who do evil, while leaving good people alone. Her children, on the other hand - Mrtyu (death), Bhaya (fear) and Mahabhaya (terror) - tend to instill a sense of apprehension. Nirrti - Indian - Is a rogue among her own kind. Rather than seeking power and dominance, the main thrust of her quest has been to find or create the perfect hok'taur (human host). Nirrti planted a biologically-triggered bomb into Cassandra's body. Nirrti was part of the Goa'uld delegation convening on Earth at the invitation of the Asgard, who were attempting to broker a deal to make Earth a part of the Protected Planets Treaty. Using phase technology to make herself invisible, she attacked Cronus, framing Teal'c. She was sent back with Lord Yu and Cronus for punishment. She was killed by the aliens in her service when she was using a machine possibly of Ancient origin. (Singularity, Fair Game, Rite Of Passage, Metamorphosis)
