Guias Ishouldhaverememberedhername Baltar.
The Romans didn’t really believe in individuality. There were only 40 or so first names for Roman males, at least amongst aristocrats. Gaius was one of the most common. Along with Lucius and Marcus, Gaius constituted 59% of praenomen. So you pick a noted Roman, chances are pretty good his first name is Gaius.
Women of course had it worse. Their first name, as much as they had one, was the female form of their father’s clan name. Hence Julius Caesar’s daughter was called Julia.
That’s what he’ll go down in history as, if not as “The One Whose Name Cannot Be Spoken”.
Ah, thanks. I am a little rusty on some parts.
how about this…
the cylons are not that good at cloning, and they made a clone of kara that was not viable. they put together a junked viper repainted the tail number crashed it on “erf” with the Dead Clone inside.
Kara did see a heavy raider and it “saved” her in the Gas giant and set off an explosion to make it look like her viper exploded.
then they cleaned up her viper, loaded the images in the camera, used projection to show her EARTH, and sent her back. ( She did reappear just after the Cylon fleet showed up.) and used a small EM pulse to disorient the fleet to mask her departure from the baseship.
So she is Human and she never died. its just another Cavil Mind frak.
Here’s one I just thought of to explain how RDM’s comment about Kara’s dad could be true.
When Starbuck was reborn, her memory of the song her father played was changed from whatever it really was to Watchtower.
