Exposing Apep to the unstable effects of the Ancient healing device, Anubis learned of valuable Ancient weapons: the Eyes of the Goa’uld, six jewels used to power aplanet destroying weapon. However, Anubis’ ambition was even greater. His victories earned the praise and respect of Apep, but earned the jealousy of his fellow underlords. Long ago, Anubis first arose as a warlord in the service of Apep. He gathered strength for hundreds of years before returning to take his revenge upon the System Lords and dominate the Milky Waygalaxy, before his permanent defeat in 2005.
Because of his knowledge of the Ancients, Anubis amassed unimaginable advanced technologies.
