History
Once trapped in the Alpha Quadrant, the Dominion began breeding new Jem'Hadar with these being engineered to be more aggressive as this was believed appropriate during the conflict against their enemies. These Alpha Jem'Hadar began to feature in growing numbers during the course of the Dominion War. (Episode: One Little Ship)
Overview
They were bred in hatcheries in large numbers with their loses not mourned as they performed their duty to the Dominion. (Episode: Penumbra) Their eyesight was noted to be excellent and much better when compared to the Vorta. (Episode: Favor the Bold)
A lack of White created anxiety within the Jem'Hadar and caused them to disobey orders. (Episode: Rock and Shoals) Among certain specimens, they faced a genetic mutation that occurred in their lifespan where they generated Ketracel-White naturally thus leading to them no longer being dependent on the drug. (Episode: Hippocratic Oath)
When suffering from White withdrawal, they proved to be unable to Shroud themselves. (Episode: Rock and Shoals)
During the Dominion War, the Dominion created a new breed of Jem'Hadar whose DNA and psychological profile were tailored made for war in the Alpha Quadrant. The breeding of these new Jem'Hadar saw them being given command assignments as Firsts over the existing Jem'Hadar as it was believed they were better leaders as a result. This division between the two branches of the Jem'Hadar saw the ones from the Gamma Quadrant being referred to as Gammas whilst the ones made in the Alpha Quadrant called Alphas. A level of tension was shown to exist between the two species with the Alphas seeing themselves as being superior over their Gamma brethren. (Episode: One Little Ship)
Under their rules, they killed wounded or killed members of their kind in order to allow scant resources to be spread to the survivors. (Episode: Hippocratic Oath) The Jem'hadar were described as being among the most brutal and efficient warriors in known space. They cared not for the conventions of war or protecting civilians. In fact, their strikes were not limited to military targets and were able to wage the kind of war that the likes of the Federation had not seen since its founding. (Episode: Homefront) They were able to learn new techniques at a fast rate and commit entire processes to memory. (Episode: One Little Ship)
Some Jem'Hadar were noted for never meeting a Founder despite the fact that the Changelings were considered gods to their kind. Instead, the species were expected to fight and die for their masters who they would not meet even after their deaths. (Episode: Hippocratic Oath) They also followed the commands of the Vorta though the Jem'Hadar were capable of their field supervisors when discipline had fallen apart within their combat units. Jem'Hadar were also known to show an interest in seeing the insides of a Vorta as this was a rare experience for them to witness. They were completely dedicated in the completion of their mission and followed orders even if it meant death. This was even the case if they knew their superiors had deliberately sent them to their deaths. (Episode: Rock and Shoals)
Recommendations for a new Second were presented to the Vorta by the First. When no Vorta was present, the Jem'Hadar First was responsible for distributing the White to the troops. (Episode: One Little Ship)
