KA D'ARGO

Ka D'Argo is a huge, bellicose Luxan — a race of fierce, much-feared warriors known throughout the galaxy for their propensity to conquer anything or anyone in their path. His first reaction to most every situation is to attack first and ask questions never.

D'Argo was framed for the murder of his Sebacean wife, Lo'Laan. Lo'Laan was killed by her brother, Macton, in no small part due to the belief among many Sebaceans that a Sebacean/Luxan pairing was miscegenation, and an abomination. Although Captain Bialar Crais was aware of D'Argo's innocence, the Luxan warrior was imprisoned by the Peacekeepers for several cycles. ("They've Got a Secret")

D'Argo's son, Jothee, disappeared and was later found to be enslaved. In a daring scheme that nearly cost John Crichton his life, Jothee was rescued and reunited with his father. (Liars, Guns and Money, Part 3: Plan B) Sadly, their reunion ended in tragedy when D'Argo's lover, Chiana, betrayed him by having an affair with Jothee. ("Suns and Lovers")

D'Argo has more difficulty connecting with others than the rest of Moya's crew, although he's grown to respect Aeryn as a fellow warrior, and he considers Crichton a brother-in-arms and a trusted friend. He also had great respect for Zhaan and was deeply in love with Chiana until she betrayed him. Any kind of good relationship between D'Argo and Rygel, however, is likely a lost cause. Another barrier to D'Argo's interactions with others is his habit of giving in to Hyper-Rage, a state of severely heightened aggression particular to Luxans, and which is relieved only by breaking things, killing things, or waiting a very long time. Once when D'Argo let his Hyper-Rage get the better of him, he nearly killed Crichton. ("Revenging Angel") His later regret over the incident has spurred him to keep a tighter reign on his fury.

D'Argo acquired an ancient Luxan ship at a Commerce Station, and after spending the better part of a cycle studying it, he unlocked its secrets — by unlocking its controls with his Qualta Blade. ("Revenging Angel") As he acquired a degree of mastery over the small but powerful ship, he regained a sense of purpose and confidence in his life. He has named his ship Lo'La, in honor of his murdered wife.
