Race/Culture Description
Ha'ktyl

 Stargate 
An alliance of a multitude of Jaffa women formerly under the banner of the Goa'uld Moloc. The women formed a secret rebellion against Moloc under the command of Ishta, who still serves as his high priestess. When Moloc began murdering all infant girls born to the Jaffa in his service, Ishta -- who was called upon to preside over the Ceremony of Fire -- began smuggling the children into safety on the planet Hak'tyl.

The women have received training as warriors, and are expected to defend their homeworld if it comes under attack. Originally the Hak'tyl stole symbiotes from other Jaffa to survive, but they were eventually convinced by SG-1 to rely on tretonin as an alternative to their dependence on the Goa'uld.

Many of the resistance, especially the younger members, had never seen a male before SG-1 visited their camp. Eventually they came to accepting them, and with Ishta's persuasion, formed an alliance with Earth.

Hankans

 Stargate 
An race of humans from the planet Hanka who were once under the occupying force of Nirrti, who altered their biochemistry in the hopes of creating a hok'taur. The little we know of the Hankans comes from the data SG-7 collected while observing an impending black hole on the planet, as well as the rescue of a single survivor, Cassandra, designated by Nirrti to harbor a deadly weapon of destruction against the human race. The Hankans were indeed a peaceful people who thrived within their environment. From the structures near the Stargate it can be determined they were fairly advanced in technology. In their teenage years the Hankans would suffer a "mind fire," in which they would by instinct, be summoned into the forest to seek out a primal force. By touching a glowing hand on a tree they would be drawn to a warm fire where Goa'uld transport rings would sweep them underground to Nirrti laboratory, filled with devices allowing her to determine her progress at creating the perfect Hankan host. When SG-7 arrived Nirrti realized her plan might be discovered and unleashed a massive viral plague in the atmosphere of Hanka, killing all the inhabitants, including SG-7, save for Cassandra.

Hebridans

 Stargate 
A mixed race of humans and Serrakin that inhabit the world of Hebridan. After the Serrakin freed human slaves from the Goa'uld millennia ago, they successfully integrated the species into their society and called themselves Hebridians, inter-marrying and living in peace for generations. Hebridian society has, from time to time, been rocked by superstition that one species is attempting to suppress the other, but overall these claims have been unsuccessful and the combined populace has thrived into a boomingly rich culture. Frequently, the two species cross-breed, and have maintained a healthy balance despite the genetically diverse races. A few humans among them, however, believe that the Serrakin are oppressing them and making them second-class citizens. Hebridan is the cultural center of the Loop of Kon Garat, an annual outer space racing event.
