Bio

Wolesh is a Scarran soldier. He is perhaps best known for being the father of Scorpius.

Decades before John Crichton's arrival in the Uncharted Territories, a Leviathan full of Sebacean colonists is attacked by the Scarrans. One transport pod manages to escape. The Scarrans soon discover it, however, and send Wolesh either as a single scout or the point in their boarding party. Wolesh comes across the pod's two Sebacean occupants, Ghebb and Rylani Dellos. He shrugs off several pulse pistol blasts from Ghebb, before killing the man and capturing Rylani.

Later, in a horrific experiment of which the purpose is to see if Sebaceans can be used as breeding stock, Wolesh forces himself upon bound and captive Rylani. She would later die giving birth to Scorpius.

Wolesh's fate is unknown.
