His species, known colloquially in the Uzoka system as Cloud Dancers or Rainbow Dancers, are sentient, cloud-based beings native to the Jenatris Cloud. Their cultures appears to be similar to that of a wolf pack.
Cloud Dancers are frequently imprisoned and kept as pets by the Grenushi of Uzoka 3. Rover and his siblings Fido, Rocky, Daisy, Duke, Sam and Molly, were delivered to the Krayav of Uzoka 4 as a gift of peace from Telnoth Kylon Haerin of the Grenushi during the mission A Tale Of Two Worlds. During this diplomatic mission, the crew of USS Atlantis discovered the nature of Haerin's "gift" and worked to free the Cloud Dancers. Rover, having grown close to Atlantis Helm Officer Rendal Rennyn, chose to remain aboard Atlantis. Rover's brother Fido was taken by the EJS (Endangered Jenatris Species) group, and his whereabouts are currently unknown.
During his time on Atlantis, Rover has sought to learn about biped culture in order to improve his people's relations with outsiders. He believes that if diplomatic relations can be achieved with the Krayav, Grenushi and other other neighboring species, the trade in captured Cloud Dancers can be brought to an end. For that purpose, Rover works to understand the language and ways of non-cloud-based cultures through observation and interaction with the crew of USS Atlantis.
Stats
- Full Name: Rover
- Race: Cloud Dancer
- Place of Birth: Par'tha Expanse (specific location unknown)
- Date of Birth: Unknown
- Age: Unknown. Rover is an adolescent of his species.
- Gender: Identifies as Male, whatever that means for a cloud.
- Telepathic status: T4. Cloud Dancers cause reactions in telepaths and empaths ranging from a mild headache to hallucination and loss of mental control. The J-SIN (Jenatric Sonic Influence Neutralizer) device invented by Tyler Kelly allows readers to come into contact with Cloud Dancers without suffering these effects. Rover is also able to control his effect on others, making contact with him safe.

He is able to expand and contract at will, and can also imitate other forms.
