I'd like to refine the definitions against a pre-existing list of archetypes because I'm like that. The list I did up there is me knocking them out at work while running Office of Energy Invoice reports and reading the Impromptu Administrator's Guide.
D'Anna Biers - I'm pulling this from having seen has as an investigative journalist (admittedly playing a role) where she was passionate, committed and pushing for truth. As an agent in 'evaluating' Caprica_6 and Galactica_Sharon trying to make sure Cylon isn't 'contaminated' and as a decision maker in the Cylon policy_pool - I'm still trying to get a handle on her in the current role.
Doral - I'm torn. He's softly spoken and all but remember him in the pilot undermining Roslyn? Also what he said to Jammer about the temple massacre was utter, utter crap. The Centurions lost control? What? Centurions? The scenes in the webisodes spoke to me of being profoundly manipulative.
You're dead right about Simon, we just don't have enough to go on. The fact he tried to talk to Starbuck about her father and about her fear of motherhood could have been a form of complex sadism or of a genuine desire to help. Also he's a doctor - because he wants to help people? - because he wants to study them? - because he likes seeing beings in pain?
Six and Sharon need love - yes I think so too but they need it in very different ways. Six is about passionate love between her and Baltar and passionate love between her and God. Sharon is about deep loyalty and shared understanding.
Leoben being patient screams psychopath all the way to me. He's *so* obsessed he can't even being to consider the possibility of his vision being wrong. You just -know- that Starbuck is going to hold him in her arms some time in the future, tell him she loves him and it's going to be hideously wrong and not at all what he expects.
Whee!
I've been kicking around the same idea, I read somewhere that Six was named deliberately but the rest were random and I can't remember if it was a reputable source or not. It works for Biers, Six and Sharon - they seem to be in a empathetic sequence, I'm just not sure where to place the men.
