Jaffa are a genetically engineered offshoot of Humanity created by the Goa'uld to serve as warriors, vehicle crews, and incubators for their young, which they store in a pouch in their lower torso. The Goa'uld symbiotes that they carry extend their lifespans into the centuries. After puberty, Jaffa require a goa'uld Sybiote to survive, as they lack immune systems. Until recently, the overwhelming majority of the Jaffa worshiped the Goa'uld as gods, a scenario that only changed due to the efforts of Teal'c and his Master, Bra'tac.

The Jaffa under the Goa'uld

The highest-rank a Jaffa could achieve in the service of a System Lord is first prime. Outside that, no specific rank has been given to Jaffa, although it is reasonably safe to assume that Prime is a rank.

The Jaffa Rebellion

After his defection from service under the Goa'uld Apophis, Teal'c and Stargate Command dedicated themselves to instigate a General Revolution of the Jaffa against the Goa'uld.
