Asgard Protectorate

Every Single Asgard From Stargate Earth's most important allies became a pillar of Stargate's mythology. Here is every Asgard who appeared on Stargate! Darren@GateWorldDarren | Features | June 29, 2024 Thor and Loki of Asgard Beware of SPOILERS for Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis in this article! There is perhaps no alien race more recognisably “Stargate” than the Asgard, Earth's allies from a distant galaxy who occasionally flex their technological muscles against the Goa'uld… when they can momentarily break away from their war with the Replicators, that is. Their place in the franchise goes all the way back to the hologram of the Viking warrior Thor early in Stargate SG-1's first season. Little did we know then how important they would become to the fabric of the Stargate universe. SG-1 went on to discover that the Asgard were once part of an alliance of four advanced races, along with the Nox, the Furlings, and the Ancients. They are allies to Earth and have visited our world many times, determining that humanity indeed has “great potential.” As much as we loved seeing Thor turn up year after year, eventually the writers introduced new Asgard characters. Some would recur, while others appeared in just a single episode. So, we thought, why not catalog them all in one place? In fact, let's make a game of it: Before you continue reading any further, stop and see how many Asgard you can name! What follows is a list of every single Asgard who has appeared (to date) on the Stargate franchise. (For those keeping strict count, that's excluding the unnamed bystanders who wander through the background or radio Thor in the middle of battle in episodes such as “Small Victories,” or the unnamed Asgard who might or might not be Thor himself who peeps the DHD in “Shades of Grey.
