Biography Stait was born in Snow Lake, Manitoba and grew up in The Pas."Typecast as a bottom feeder: Actor's no goon, but he's got the look and the background" by Damian Inwood, The Province (15 Dec, 1996) [Final Edition]. Retrieved from Though it is commonly said that Stait left Andromeda due to an allergic reaction to the prosthetics his character required, a 2011 interview revealed his departure was motivated by "physical exhaustion" from wearing the full Rev Bem costume.
Stait substituted for the body of Michael Kenmore in his Wraith form in the Stargate Atlantis episode "Allies", though Connor Trinneer continued to provide the voice. Trinneer returned to the full role after this singular episode as shown in "The Kindred (Part 1)".
