 The Farscape Encyclopedia - Bishan
Bio: Bishan is the cousin of the former Hynerian Dominar Rygel XVI.
Dominar Rygel XVI found himself being transported on Moya, a Peacekeeper Prison Transport Leviathan, and attained the codes to free himself and the other prisoners, thus leading to their escape.
A cycle later, Bishan sends a holographic message to Dominar Rygel XVI that reaches him aboard Moya during the height of the ongoing intergalactic war raging between the Scarrans and the Peacekeepers.

 What we know about Rygel   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Rygel is not a "body breeder" and is somewhat shocked (and possibly intrigued) by Zhaan's offer of sensual pleasure, at least until she mentions returning to Delvia first--then he snaps back to his old self.
Rygel denied godhood, of course, but did bask in the glow of their treating him as their ruler (which he was), something his shipmates don't do.
Rygel demonstrated that he does know the basics of building a bomb, though not necessarily the correct amounts of the materials to be used, when he built one to kill Durka with (and almost taking John along in the process).

 Dominar Rygel Xvi   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Rygel never discussed the political causes for the coup, though he intended to avenge himself as soon as he got the chance.
Rygel initially spent his confinement aboard the Peacekeeper Command Carrier Zelbinion, where he was regularly tortured and humiliated by the ship's captain, Selto Durka.
Though Rygel did at times provide valuable services for the crew, he often caused more trouble than he was worth.In one instance, Rygel tried to betray his shipmates to Crais and Scorpius in exchange for resources to return him to Hyneria.

 Selto Durka - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
One such prisoner was Dominar Rygel XVI, who later found himself onboard Moya at the start of the TV series.
About a cycle (year) later, Rygel discovered that Durka survived their last encounter and was then the head of the Zenetian pirates with which he was trying to negotiate.
For the next few days, Rygel carried Durka's severed head around on a stake, as a trophy of his final victory over the man who tortured him for so long.

Standing all of 26 inches tall — when he deigns to rise from his levitating ThroneSled, that is — Rygel was once the royal sovereign of more than 600 billion loyal subjects, the ruler of the Hynerian Empire.
The victim of a coup by his treacherous cousin Bishan, Rygel was a prisoner of the Peacekeepers for more than 300 cycles — first aboard the infamous Command Carrier Zelbinion, and, much later, aboard the collared Leviathan prison ship Moya.
It was Rygel who first escaped his cell on Moya, making possible the prisoner revolt that seized control of the living ship and, together with D'Argo and Zhaan, freed Moya from a life of servitude to the Peacekeepers.

 Dominar Rygel XVI All Seasons Gallery One
Of course, if Rygel could have freed the ship alone, he might just as easily have left the Luxan and the Delvian in chains.
Rygel is, more than any other individual aboard Moya, excessively concerned with his own self-interest.
In the last few cycles alone, Rygel has slain his former tormentor Durka ; bested Scorpius at the negotiating table ; put the smack-down on his people's ancient enemies, the Charrids, in a battle worthy of his ancestors ; and discovered that he is, in fact, capable of bravery in the face of overwhelming odds.

 Dominar Rygel XVI Peacekeeper Wars Gallery
The Sixteenth Rygel in a line of Dominars, Rygel was once the ruler of over 600 billion subjects in the Hynerian Empire.
Rygel (barely over two feet tall) rarely deigns to stand; instead, he floats about Moya on his ThroneSled, looking down his nose at the other members of the crew, muttering to himself, stealing what looks valuable, and eating whatever will fit in his froglike mouth.
With an ornery temper, a tendency to fart helium, an unnecessarily egomaniacal attitude and the notion that everyone - in particular, attractive females, and especially Chiana - should bow to his bidding, Rygel is not the easiest creature to spend time with.

 Dominar Rygel XVI - Frell Me Dead
His wise ways shine, but his weaknesses in thinking he's mightier than any others also shine, and he has to learn to be who he is, and not the captain of a ship, not the leader of a group of differences.
He can be the best Dominar of 600 billion of roughly the same, but onboard a vessel where he's the only Hynerian, things, he finally realizes, are not conquerable.
In WWL I think that Rygel still would have done it earier in the series do to his massive hatred of charrids and that he was in a fairly defensible location with a long range weapon.

 Rygel XVI, Dominar of Hyneria   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
RYGEL XVI is operated expertly by John Eccleston, Dave Collins, Sean Masterson, Graeme Haddon and Tim Mieville, and voiced wonderfully by Jonathan Hardy.
Rygel is the sovereign to over 600 billion loyal subjects.  Well, not quite all of them.  He was the victim of a coup lead by his cousin Bishan.  He was kidnapped in his sleep and subsequently imprisoned by the Peacekeepers (subcontracted by Bishan) for approximately 250 cycles.
Many times we are appalled at Rygel’s insensitivity and cunning behavior.  Yet this makes him an excellent negotiator and he has, on many occasions, assisted the crew of Moya in obtaining supplies (and freedom) when needed.

Onboard are Luxan warrior Ka D'Argo, exiled Hynerian Dominar Rygel XVI, and Delvian priestess Pa'u Zotoh Zhaan, three prisoners who have taken control of Moya and are escaping from the regime of the militaristic Peacekeepers.
