Salis is a minor antagonist who appeared in the US/Australian science fiction television series Farscape. He appeared in the season one episode, "Durka Returns" and was played by actor Tiriel Mora.
Overview
Salis is a member of the Nebari Establishment and upholds strict standards in regards to behavioral discipline. He used Nebari brainwashing techniques to alter the aggressive personalities of the former Peacekeeper captain Selto Durka and is also responsible for apprehending the Nebari refugee Chiana. After a crash encounter with the Leviathan ship Moya, Salis brought Durka and Chiana on board. One of Moya's passengers, John Crichton instantly took a dislike to Salis, particularly in how he treated Chiana, who appeared to be completely helpless. Salis was later found dead, but the identity of his murderer is unclear, though it was likely either Durka or Chiana.
