    There aren't any legendary Romulans. No one with 10 minutes of screen time or appears in one episode or half a movie qualifies as legendary. Romulan Dukat would be more legendary than any Romulans in the Star Trek universe.

    I'd say "Balance of Terror" itself is considered legendary to fans. And Mark Lenard's Romulan Commander would be as well.

    That being said, I'm still 99% certain it will be Surak.

    Surak.

    Nah, this is Surak.

    One's young and one's old (at least that's how I rationalise it).

    I wouldn't be at all surprise if they went with older Surak, since he's all robed and such. But I'm okay with dreamy young Surak.

  • What about V'Lar? She could qualify as a legend.

    Again that is one episode and 10 minutes of screen time. Great performance but not a legendary character by any means.

    Surak on the other hand qualifies as the character has appeared across multiple series and story lines in important roles. However, we just had one so I am guess we are getting some Romulan with 10 minutes of screen time and being told he / she is legendary. 😀

    "one episode" but it's one of the best TOS episodes. Edith Keeler is also pretty "legendary" within the fandom.

    Also his screentime is much more than 10 minutes. I suggest you watch that again.

    Now...if they mean "Legendary" within the Star Trek universe, then no, we don't know of any Legendary Romulans (aside from stuff from the novels), so Surak is most likely.

    Maybe it's Saavik... she's half Romulan and got 'more than 10 minutes of screen time'
    Lol

    That's all it is. An opinion in a simple conversation. 😀. Not to step on any toes or anything but the people who performed in the show can be popular with the fans but the characters themselves would not qualify as legendary. Great performance be it 10 minutes or 20 minutes but the word legendary is overused IMO. 😀

    I must have missed the part when Saavik was revealed to be half Romulan? :confused:

    It's not canon, but all over novels, comics, etc.

    A lot of people get more than 10 minutes of screen time, doesn't make their characters legendary.

    I see. I'm not fully versed on the licensed works, but I feel like this Romulan event could benefit from dipping into them. There's a lot of good Romulan/Vulcan stuff in there. Of course, then there's going to be hordes of people channelling their inner Senator Vreenak and I'm kind of tired of outrages.

    Hmm... maybe it's just me but the concept of a Romulan event just has me going "meh"
    T'pel from "Data's Day" as an undercover operative OR Vreenak from the masterful "In The Pale Moonlight" are the only ones i can think of that I'd actually enjoy

    Others I'd like:

    The aforementioned Commander played by Mark Lenard
    Admiral "Alien Bounty Hunter" Valdore (I basically just want him because Alien Bounty Hunter)
    Patahk (Mr. "Klingon filth" whose name is petaQ, it's just too good)
    Tebok (Romulan Dukat)

    Looks like there is a bowl cut haircut there so Surak. Would be way more fun and way more fandom legendary for a T'Pau. Kick it off with a pon farr event with T'Pau and a new 4* T'Pring and a 3* Stonn.
  • OMG, if it is a Romulan . . . I just remembered how IMPOSSIBLE it is to get those stupid no star Romulan Emblams. It takes 24 chorons for the “most-likely” drop and it’s only a 2/5 chance of a drop. 🙄🤦🏼‍♂️☹️ It’s gonna take a ridiculous amount of replicator rations just to level this crew member up. 😓

    It could be younger TOS Sarek( probably not cause of the robes) or even a version from the movies

    Oh, you mean these? Yeah, plan on running that Sunday/Tuesday Cadet challenge mission exclusively for a few weeks. 🖖🏻

    And that is why you should now start dedicating your Cadets to getting them :P

    Nah, this is Surak.

    gl75pcmu9fh4.jpg

    Old Surak is the real Surak from Ent when Archer had Surak's Katra.

    Young Surak is an image of what the Excalbians thought Surak might look like, and could be as accurate as their representation of Kahless.

    Old Surak is older, wiser, and has passed his teachings on. Hopefully it is Old Surak.

    It's actually based on what Kirk and Spock thought Surak was like. They scanned Kirk and Spock's minds.

    Screen time and number of episodes they appeared has absolutely no bearing on whether they become a Legendary, rare or uncommon in STT,

    There are legendary crew that never even appeared in any episodes or films. Mirror Data, C.O.P. Founder Picard, Avaitor Yar. The are some who had minor appearances like Mirror Shukar.

    There are crew like Captain Kirk and Enterprise-D Picard who have uncommon cards, yet were legendary in the TV series and films.

    I am not discussing STT character cards. The thread says prepare for the arrival of a legend. Legend is a strong word. I am not talking about actors or performances. If I have a character card in front of me for a specific character, that character needs to have saved a planet or something and appeared in the Star Trek television / movie universe in a significant form. I am not being shown a William Shatner card for example. I am being shown a Captain Kirk card who was legendary in the ST television and movie universe. You need to separate the two when discussing characters because some actors played multiple characters in the ST universe. Great performances in many ways but some characters legendary and some not.

    maybe this new character is so legendary in his awesomeness, that he brings his own moon where ever he goes!!
