A thousand years ago, an evil being known as Anubis who had just achieved ascension, discovered a world similar to the Tau'ri yet very different, it was called the Shinobi world. The natives of this world possessed great powers capable of good and evil, Anubis took it as an opportunity to have powerful servants, so he appeared to them posing their god.

At first, it all went well until some of the natives found out what Anubis truly was and tried to achieve ascension as well, when Anubis found out about it he destroyed them which led to the uprising. Because of this, Anubis was forced to leave behind everything he brought to their world including his weapons of mass destruction which would allow anyone to become the ruler of the universe. Anubis kept the location of the Shinobi world and the existence of his treasure as a secret from everyone, including from the Goa'uld system lords because he knew that if anyone found out about the existence treasure or the power it possessed, everyone would try to find it and use its power for their own purposes. Anubis destroyed all the evidence about the existence of this planet and his treasure, but he did leave behind a map that would take only those who are worthy of his power to the Shinobi world and his treasure.

For centuries Anubis's weapons and technology remained hidden until fate decided that it was the time for a chosen one to find this world and unlock its secrets Anubis had buried.
