Ver Egen administrator

From The Stargate Omnipedia

VerEganadministrator.jpg

Governor of the village of Ver Eger prior to his being transformed into a Prior of the Ori. The administrator was responsible for conducting religious ceremonies including leading Prostration, the Origin equivalent of Mass, and cleansing of evil spirits, who had been "overcome," by destroying them in fire on the Ara. The administrator often carried a copy of the Book of Origin. He was married.

It is unclear if the administrator was also responsible for the political matters of Ver Eger, though in this culture religion and politics may have been one and the same.

The administrator, prior to his transformation

As an award for his loyalty the Doci summoned the administrator to the City of Celestis to gaze into the Flames of Enlightenment. It was here where he was transformed into a Prior himself, leaving behind the duties of administration to another Ver Egen.

As a Prior he served the Ori well in their expansion into the Milky Way Galaxy. Eventually he was lured into a trap and killed when SG-1 used a Prior inhibitor to rob him of his powers.
