I think it's too bad we didn't get to delve into Lord Yu's character more. I always wondered how similar he was to other Chinese emperors. He likes tea, I think I saw a bonsai in the background in an episode and he had a generic chinese palace, but did he ever have a pug? Most emperors did. Well, the Goa'uld probably weren't that interested in pets

Originally posted by WillowI think the only reason he was a 'softie' in his old age is because, as Daniel pointed out in err, Fair Game? that he had no power bases in our part of the Galaxy.
Also, because he was going senile maybe Oshu changed or refused to carry out his more extreme orders?Lord Zedd

(Whitey letters): Yes we are. Dead people are so much easier to discuss because they can't change due to the fact that they are dead!Hitler, Stalin, and Mussolini => three of the world's worst dictators.
Also failed artist, failed priest, and failed grade-school teacher.
What we should learn: Don't trust artists, be wary of priests, and fear your teachers!

Originally posted by Mr ProphetI think it was well-established in Fair Game that he was a softie in his young age as well. His mythological profile was noted as being more benevolent than other Goa'uld and he was widely considered throughout his time as 'the one we can trust'. Clearly he was a moderate, only by Goa'uld standards, sure, but a moderate nonetheless. Ba'al was probably forever denouncing him as a mealy-mouthed liberal.
"Following the uprising, Lord Yu executed half of the population! If this softly-softly approach continues, there will be anarchy!"
Lord Yu is the liberal of the System Lords.
If the metaphor were any more perfect I think I'd cry.

Whitey letters: I would assume that the space station the Replicator's attacked in Reckoning was lost with all hands(and snakes). So I think it's safe to assume poor Oshu dies defending his masters corpse.Hitler, Stalin, and Mussolini => three of the world's worst dictators.
