A shady, yet powerful consortium of smugglers and mercenaries that have merged together to take advantage of the power vacuum left behind by the Goa'uld following their defeat by the Replicators. Their fleet consists of at least nine Al'kesh, two small cruisers, and a death glider defense force. The Alliance is made up of a committed band of individuals who are not afraid to get what they want by force, though most arrangements are carried out through trade with a loose list of alliances. They typically will not trade with anyone they do not know, but if the bounty is worth spreading themselves, they will trade with unknowns to obtain what they want. There is no indication of exactly when the Alliance was formed, but it likely came together following the fall of Anubis and his fleet -- though it may have been developing before this time. Vala Mal Doran once attempted to trade the Earth ship Prometheus to the Lucian Alliance in exchange for a case of weapons-grade naquadah, but two Alliance associates, Tenat and Jup, were duped by Daniel Jackson (who had locked Vala in a cell, preventing her from making the trade). Consequently Vala and Jackson were placed on a wanted list by the Alliance. The Lucian Alliance has the potential to become a growing threat, particularly for the new Jaffa government. KEY EPISODE(S) - Prometheus Unbound - Vala attempts to trade the Prometheus to two associates of the Lucian Alliance, but Daniel spoils the deal when he retakes the ship. The Ties That Bind - The Lucian Alliance instructs Tenat and Jup to recover Vala and Daniel, likely to make examples of them. Off the Grid - The Alliance captures SG-1 when the team tries to stop the flow of the addictive kassa crop.
