Biography
Teeg was a member of the Sebacean race and was also one of the Peacekeepers. She was stationed aboard the Peacekeeper Command Carrier captained by Bialar Crais and was present on the day that Earth astronaut John Crichton's module, the Farscape-1 collided with a Peacekeeper Marauder, killing Crais' brother, Tauvo. (Farscape: Premiere)
A devoted and loyal officer, Lieutenant Teeg stood by Crais when he went on his obsessive, vengeance-oriented quest. Teeg covered up his paranoid and bizarre behavior, lied to her superiors for him and, in the end, died because of his obsession with John Crichton. Crais snapped her neck to ensure no one else knew he had been called back by Peacekeeper Command. (Farscape: That Old Black Magic)
Her murder remained undiscovered until Scorpius put Crais into the Aurora Chair several months later. (Farscape: The Hidden Memory)
