According to Stargate Program intelligence, Kiva's father Massin is one of the most brutal of the Lucian Alliance warlords, and apparently his daughter inherited the tendency.

[[Image:sgu10109.jpg|thumb|170px|left|Alliance's fleet is destroyed in their attack on Icarus Base]]Kiva's group had been infiltrated by a Stargate Program spy, Col. David Telford.

Because Telford was brainwashed, he did everything he could to get close to the ''Destiny'', including volunteering to swap bodies with anyone on the ship who was using the communications stones. He then fed what he learned to Kiva, including providing Earth computers, the dialing program, and the formula for powering the Stargate using the naquadria core. Kiva's lead scientist Olan tried to make the dialing formula work for their unique planet, but he wasn't making much headway. Because he feared her, he kept reassuring that they were getting close to successfully dialing ''Destiny''. | Because Telford was brainwashed, he did everything he could to get close to the ''Destiny'', including volunteering to swap bodies with anyone on the ship who was using the communications stones.

His plan was simple: isolate the Alliance members in the 'gate room when they come through the Stargate and then evacuate the air. | With Telford in custody, Young tried to break his brainwashing through various means, but then had to resort to taking him to death's door.

Telford also told Young the location of the base where Kiva was holding Rush. Lt. Gen. Jack O'Neill sent the ''USS George Hammond'' to take the base and rescue Rush.

Young was ready to push the button to start the evacuation of the air in the 'gate room until he saw Telford come through.

Summary
Commander Kiva, the daughter of the Lucian Alliance's powerful warlord Massin, managed to dial the Ancient exploratory vessel Destiny and take control away from the Stargate Program. Her victory was short-lived after she was shot by Col. David Telford, and her life hangs in the balance. (SGU: 1.18 "Subversion", 1.19 "Incursion Part 1", 1.20 "Incursion Part 2")
Character Biography
According to Stargate Program intelligence, Kiva's father Massin is one of the most brutal of the Lucian Alliance warlords, and apparently his daughter inherited the tendency. She was the leader of a large base of over 100 personnel who followed her every order, some of whom seemed to be more afraid of her than respectful. (SGU 1.18 "Subversion")
Kiva's group had been infiltrated by a Stargate Program spy, Col. David Telford. He was with them for about a year and then was discovered and brainwashed so that he would become a traitor to his own people by divulging secret information to the Alliance to further their attempts to acquire the Destiny. The Alliance found out about Icarus Base from Telford and coordinated a massive attack complete with Goa'uld death gliders, troop transports, and ha'tak motherships. Telford, who was the leader of the expedition that was to go through the Stargate once the nine-chevron code made a connection, flew an F-302 to defend the base and was left behind when the surviving base personnel evacuated through the Stargate. The Stargate was supposed to be connected to Earth for the evacuation, but at the time of the attack, Dr. Nicholas Rush, the lead scientist of the Project, decided to dial the nine-chevron code instead, thinking that he'd never get another chance. Because the planet's core was rich in the unstable naquadria, the entire planet and the attacking Alliance fleet blew apart and were utterly destroyed. (SGU 1.01 "Air Part 1", 1.18 "Subversion")
