Ba'al /Cliff Simon Thunk,Discussion and Appreciation

[Seshat]

After reckoning 2 I am a firm believer in Baal is not really evil. He is maybe like 1/2 evil or something.

No! Ba'al is evil, I tell you, pure evil!! It's his disarming devilish charm that is misleading you.

[Magnus]

I'd be nice if there was more depth to his character. As opposed to being just another Goa'uld, I think the whole rouge Tok'ra idea would be a great addition to his character.

[yasureubetcha]

So, speculation on what his name *might* have been before? After all, one assumes he didn't hang out among the Tok'ra with a name like Ba'al.

"Hi, my name is Ba'al, and of COURSE I'm not planning to impersonate any false gods...just because I gave myself the name of one... It hurts me in my incredibly sensitive emotional heart that you would even suggest such a thing!"

Maybe he got rejected by Anise, and it turned him to evil .

[emily_reich]

ROFL!!! well i'd be happy blaming stuff on anise

i agree it would add even MORE interesting stuff to his character if something like thiswere the case i doubt it is but for the sake of argument that it'd be LOADS of interesting fun, let's say it is!!! ('specially since it'd add lots of fun to our baal/sam shipping )

ah, his name.... lol... maybe "baal" was PART of his name... lol... like, well i dunno what, but it's possible but i suppose why he'd go name himselfafter a god AFTER that culture was already gone on earth doesn't make much sense so are we assuming he's been evil (er, partly evil ) for, um... at least 3000 years, give or take or maybe he REPLACED the real (original) goauld named baal and took over his (non-earth obviously, so timeline woulodn't matter ) territories and started calling himself "baal" because it's just SO much more awesome of a name than any of the tok'ra have

Um... who's willow?

and, no, Ba'al is his entire name. He's the god of fertility in some culture. I forget which though.
