Ka D'Argo

Ka D'Argo is a male extraterrestrial television character who features in Farscape.

Biography

Ka D'Argo was a Luxan warrior who was imprisoned aboard the Leviathan Moya by the Peacekeepers after being convicted (falsely) of killing his Sebacean wife Lo'Laan in a fit of Luxan Hyper-Rage. He later escaped (along with Rygel and Zhaan).

During his time as a prisoner, the Peacekeepers shackled D'Argo in his cell with heavy chains attached to a pair of metal hooks surgically implanted around his collar bones to keep the powerful Luxan under control. The hooks served as a reminder of his wrongful imprisonment, and thus were a source of shame. He wore these hooks until they were finally removed aboard Scorpius' Command Carrier near the end of the third season of Farscape.

Throughout the first half of the series, finding the son he had with Lo'Laan, Jothee, was D'Argo's consuming desire. After Jothee was found, his plans to settle down with his son and Chiana scared the Nebari girl, so she did something she knew he could never forgive, to scare him away from his plans of commitment- she began an affair with Jothee. As a result of the revelation of the affair, Jothee leaves and is not seen again until the Peacekeeper Wars.

As a Luxan warrior, D'Argo carries a weapon known as a Qualta Blade, a heavy broadsword that can transform into a Qualta Rifle. Though he is initially ill-tempered and distrustful during the early episodes of the show, he is later elected Captain of Moya by the crew.

D'Argo appears to have perished during the Peacekeeper-Scarran War, after being fatally impaled by a Scarran warrior. After being mortally wounded, D'Argo covers the escape of his comrades off of Qujaga, which was then accidentally destroyed by Crichton's wormhole weapon. John Crichton and Aeryn Sun then name their son, born during the battle, D'Argo, in his memory.
