A race of ascended entities who demand the worship of mortal beings. The Ori were once the same civilization as the Ancients, but believed in religion, where the Ancients relied more heavily on science.

| - A race of ascended entities who demand the worship of mortal beings. The Ori were once the same civilization as the Ancients, but believed in religion, where the Ancients relied more heavily on science. Due to the origins of their ancestry the Ori believe they are the creators of human life. They use their ascension and knowledge of the universe as justification for praise and worship. They are still aware of the Ancients and shun them, for they abandoned the "path". The Ori conceived the Origin faith, one that puts them in the centre of creation, and wrote down their word in the Book of Origin to be administered to followers through Priors. The entire purpose of Origin is a lie, as the Ori do not actually offer enlightenment. This simple belief creates a transfer of energy from the worshipper to the Ori. Only by having beings believe and worship in them can the Ori thrive, feeding off this energy field. The Priors are not aware of this truth, but most are so programmed in Origin that they are hopelessly lost.
