SG-16

Gate-team 16. A few decades after SG-1's adventures, a new team is ready to go through the gate and see what the galaxy has in store. And the galaxy has a lot in in store... (the art on here will vary wildly as its the result of 5 years of art development some of these pieces are my earliest digital art practices and they look the part)

[gateteam16]

Rough timeline of episodes organized by seasonal arcs in the format of a TV show.

I will mostly try to post them in order, but this it the Masterlist of what happens when.

Not all of these have artwork yet, but they will eventually, so that will lead to some disorganization as well.

Stargate: Pandora's Box

A follow-up movie!

When a time-traveling Siri Thornton appears in the past with a mission to stop Malen from finding a reality altering superweapon known as Pandora's Box, SG-16 is pulled into a race for the fate of the galaxy.

However, when they discover the truth about Pandora's Box and how it works, they realize that they are fighting over something far larger than a superweapon. When the entity imprisoned in the box chases Siri into the past, the battle for the universe they have been trying to prevent comes right to them.

This time, its not about who's going to rule the galaxy, its about the universe's very survival. Losing means the destruction of existence as they know it and winning might just cost everything.

Episode 57: Consequences (Final Episode)

After Judas's defeat, peace begins to settle once again, time churning forward on a now officially space-faring Earth.

However, the effects of the time-line fracturing technology build like a charge, and in the moments following Judas's defeat, Lin Marks-Natish finds herself spinning through several alternate timelines branching off of this momentous occasion. Being thrown as far as a century ahead in some of these timelines, Lin-Natish sees the varying possible futures of Earth.

Now she must fight to get back to the original timeline, piecing together what is supposed to happen and what has caused the multiple branching timelines. She must figure out how to prune even the most positive timelines to prevent a temporal collapse and make it back home to the true timeline before its too late.

Episode 56: Retribution (Part 2)

With SG-16's secrets fully uncovered and out in the open, they manage to come together once again.

But now, its Judas' turn for a full revelation. Stunned by the unexpected twist in Judas' plan, SG-16 finds themselves trying to take down Judas and prevent his planned terrorist attacks as his super soldiers finally reveal themselves to be imbedded in every major group of the three races.

But Judas' ace in his sleeve is SG-16 themselves, and he plans to play his last card to destroy everything. SG-16 suddenly find themselves turned into the world-ending targets that Judas plans to destroy, and must save the galaxy from Judas' chaos by saving themselves from their former friend.

Seeing from Stephen's memories his plan to shut down the Stargates, SG-16 races to stop Judas from enacting his plan.

Once again, they find themselves facing their lost team-mate, but this time, he is waiting to face them too. Judas knows everything about them that Stephen knew, and uses his knowledge to challenge them, question them, and drive them apart in the same way he has tried to drive the three allied races apart.

SG-16 must confront themselves and each other as they fight past Judas' traps and manipulation, racing to stop him before he begins his plan to conquer the divided galaxy. Only to discover that maybe they don't know themselves, each other, Stephen, or Judas's plans quite as well as they thought they did.

[gateteam16]

Episode 54: Displaced

Continuing to try to find and destroy Judas's labs, SG-16 finds a lab containing familiar technology.

They manage to identify it as based off of the tech that had previously caused Stephen to fragment in his timeline and experience it non-linearly. Despite their caution, there is a lab accident and they all end up caught in the device's blast.

Suddenly every member of SG-16 finds themselves shoved into random moments of each other's pasts, experiencing random moments and memories all jumbled up as one entity. As both Marks-Natish and Major Hermalin's bodies begin to fail due to the mind mash-up they must work together to unscramble themselves and put their timelines back together before anyone dies or unravels entirely.

But, they quickly discover, theirs might not be the only minds the machine has fragmented and shuffled into the deck.

Episode 53: Wounds

The SGC is approached with an unexpected offer when Malen comes out from wherever he has been hiding to propose an alliance against Judas.

While Earth considers the deal, Lin Marks-Natish insists that its a terrible idea. When Earth ultimately decides that allying with malen is a good idea, Marks-Natish must deal with the proximity of their old tormenter, waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Sure that Malen has something else up his sleeve, Marks-Natish convinces the other members of SG-16 to help them figure out what he's really up to. However, given the mental strain of recent events, their paranoia begins to make them act irrationally. Soon their friends are less worried about what Malen might be up to and more worried that Marks-Natish are going to become a danger to themselves or others.

[gateteam16]

Episode 52: Evolution

Following Judas's sudden retreat after the SGC's attempt to neutralize him, SG-16 gives chase, trying to track him across the galaxy.

They stumble across a hidden lab and discover that Judas has been attempting to perfect Nirrti's technology to produce super-humans. They quickly decide to destroy it, as SG-1 did decades before, however, upon their return to Earth, they begin changing. Somehow the technology affected them and they find themselves mutating rapidly with no idea how to stop it.

Meanwhile, Jennifer Hailey receives a report of the disappearance of Siri Thornton's foster family and orders an investigation, uncovering that Judas kidnapped Stephen and Lin's daughter without anyone realizing. Lin Marks-Natish immediately insists on trying to find Siri, but due to the increasingly dangerous mutations she finds herself trapped on base, unable to help her daughter.

With Earth finally committed to the galactic war against Judas, the newly re-assembled SGC scrambles to prepare.

SG-16 is tasked with going through Stephen Thornton's belonging and files to see of there is anything left on Earth that might provide some insight into Judas's plans. They find all of Judas's research into his condition following Stephen's experiments as well as the records from Stephen's fragmented timeline.

With all this information, Lin Marks-Natish has an idea and brings it to Dr. Cassandra Fraiser to see if its possible to use an experimental treatment on Stephen's disorder and stop Judas by getting Stephen back.

Judas, however, does not intend to let Stephen win so easily.

(Formerly "Apprentices" on the timeline)

With most of the members of SG-16 unable to return Earth after breaking the non-interference treaty, the homeless Tauri settle in with various allies.

To keep Teal'c and Kristina busy during their exile, Ry'ac assigns them to train some young Jaffa and to help Ash'mir work through the trauma of her brainwashing.

All this settling in is halted, however, when Judas sends a message to Earth demanding a meeting with the world leaders with the threat of a super-weapon he's developed. The exiled SGC personnel find themselves suddenly recalled to Earth and must decide whether to follow Earth's orders, or to remain with their new peoples.

And they still have no idea what Judas wants from Earth.

Episode 49: Call and Response

Now that he has finished consolidating his power on his conquered planets, Judas contacts the Tok'ra, and the Jaffa, revealing the next card in his hand.

Since the death of Siri and the disappearance of the Jaffa meant to carry her offspring, the line of the Tok'ra has been presumed ended. But now Judas reveals that he has three of the Jaffa still, each carrying an infant symbiote, including Ry'ac's adopted daughter Ash'mir. Pointing out that Earth is no longer willing to help them, he invites the Tok'ra and Jaffa to ally with him instead, promising them the safe return of their missing children if they will only come sit at his negotiating table.

When news of this reaches Earth, old arguments flare up, with the US and Russia insisting that Earth must take action before the Tok'ra and Jaffa ally with Judas, while other nations insist that they stick with the non-interference treaty they've already established. Meanwhile, several members of the SGC are not willing to sit back while old friends are being used as hostages and Judas gets exactly what he wants.

SG-16 and several allies come together to launch an illicit rescue mission, determined to steal Judas's bargaining chips right out of his hands.

Episode 47: Negotiation (Part 2)

As tensions prepare to break in the powder keg of the UN, the international negotiations are derailed entirely by the appearance of the Tok'ra and representatives of the Jaffa Nations. Suddenly the international debate had turned into an inter-planetary one between multiple races and no one is getting along. Infighting even among the races themselves presents the largest threat to world peace and Judas is only getting stronger as everyone bickers among themselves.

Things turn violent when someone attempts to bomb the UN, leading to accusations and violence as Teal'c, Ry'ac, Lin Marks and Natish, and Major Hermalin attempt to figure out who is really behind the bombing before everything falls apart entirely.

Meanwhile, Jessica's channel has exploded, hailed by some as the only honest take on the whole issue, and at the same time viciously attacked by others, Lionel Gomez hires a media manager to help his daughter, realizing that this has grown beyond either of them. Pending her arrest for breaking the gag order, Kristina suggests that Jessica interview Cassandra and Tirzah for more varied perspectives to share with the public.

They are quickly caught up in the bitter debates between nations, struggling to find a way to prevent this from turning into all out war.

Meanwhile, Jessica Gomez continues her discussion of the Stargate Program on her social media, recruiting some friend to help her manage the explosive growth of her channel. Following the interview with her father, she decides to interview Major Mandrakes, who has been assigned the head of the security guarding the Gomez house. Despite the gag order for all military members, Kristina agrees to the interview, seeing the potential in Jessica's approach and hoping that it will help calm the public.

Episode 45: The Public

With the Stargate Program suddenly made globally public, Judas's plan to throw Earth into chaos has succeeded.

As the major world governments struggle to maintain order, new international debate opens between the nations as China and the European Union demand that the US turn the Stargate and the Stargate Program over to the UN, while Russia and Korea stand by the US's Stargate Program.

In the chaos, the president decides to release the preparatory video made two decades before and Cassandra must deal with the film about her mother's death being played constantly online. Meanwhile, several SGC member's identities were also released to public, leaving current and former members of the SGC to deal with accusations, demands, and hysteria from the public even in their homes.
