SO, Where does Baltar fit in?

Post by Reaper63 » Mon Feb 01, 2010 8:33 am

hought I'd Ask the question here, since most of the Blackstar council, if not all are registered here, along with the Emprie's leaders.

Which group would The Character of Baltar fit into? I can see it going into both, since he is a human and it's a cloth Costume, it should be with Blackstar Squadron. But since the Green outfit is Baltar when he's the leader of a Cylon Baseship, he could fall under the Cylon Empire.

So, what does everyone else think? I ask cause I may have talked a friend into doing a Baltar costume and We'd need to know where he should apply for membership.

Well since Baltar sat in the Imperious Leaders chair, and did control a Baseship I think it would be safe to call him Cylon worthy. Being a human and not really liked by the humans just wouldn't sit will when he came to dinner. :cylon:

I would agree that Classic Baltar would better fall under the Cylon banner.

Yes he is human and has that

I think I have seen that before, but not such a nice large file. Thanks.

Nice to see this great artwork again...

If I remember correctly, I've posted it in some other thread some time ago... but don't know where... :huh:

Nevertheless, I'd also like to see the Baltar costume, of course! He's one of the Imperious Leader's best friends... :wink:

I did figure this is where he logically fit in, just making sure it's not Cylons only ;)

and I really like that little piece of artwork!! nice indeed, never gonna happen mind you lol, but nice none the less ;)

As for the costume, it's still in the planning stages. I'll continue to work on him and get him to go ahead with the costume :) I'm excited to see he actually likes the idea. He has a Baltar costume from the NU BSG (I'm definately not a fan of Moores BSG) And that's where the idea came from.

I totally agree with everyone here on where Baltar should be. I DO NOT want him at my dinner table that is for sure! LOL! It would be appropriate for him to dwell here...

I think Baltar truly belongs in a unique place right along side the Borellian Nomen and the Eastern Alliance. However, he belongs more with the Cylon's than he does with the Colonials.

I LOVE that artwork!

I agree that Baltar belongs with the Cylons.

I never considered where the Borellian Nomen and Eastern Alliance would fit in. I think since the Borellian Nomen traveled with the rest of the fleet, they should be part of the Blackstar Squadron/humans side of things. The Eastern Alliance are human, and not affiliated with the Cylons, but certainly aren't on the "good guy" side...

Count Baltar fits with his Cylon friends. He is the greatest conqueror of all time. The only thing he awaits is a parade on Gamorey (sp?)
