Talk:Ayel

From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference

[edit] General?

I don't remember Ayel being called a general (although it's entirely possible that I merely missed the reference). Where does this rank come from? —Josiah Rowe 07:45, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

When Clifton Collins, Jr.'s casting was announced, it was reported that his character was a general to Nero or something like that. I don't think it was referring to an actual rank. --From Andoria with Love 07:50, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

Then the article probably shouldn't call him a general, right? —Josiah Rowe 08:22, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Note on name similarity?

Given the screenwriters' admitted fondness for some Trek novels, which informed various details in their script, would it be appropriate to note that Ayel's name is very similar to Ael, a Romulan Commander in Diane Duane's Rihannsu novels? --TimPendragon ^Hail 06:23, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Not unless we have a production source saying that it was intentional. That is always needed, but I think even more so here considering they aren't even the same gender. --OuroborosCobra ^talk 06:32, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
