Talk:Douwd

The fisrt paragraph needs a lot of work. It seems like it was written by someone new to memory-alpha (not that thats a bad thing, it just needs a little work).


 * Frankly I'm surprised there's as much detail as there is. -LupusCCCLIX 08:17, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

"true" form
I find it unlikely for glowing humanonid shape to be a true from of Douwd. I'd personally bet an effect of discarding material form.


 * Question: Is this another name of the Q perhaps? Powers seem remarkably similiar.  He could have used a different name for his race to distance himself form the continuum for some reason?  Any ideas?


 * It would be speculation to state that these beings are Q, no matter how similar they are, as it was not stated in canon that they were the same.--31dot 20:45, 9 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Additionally, Q doesn't seem to have any problems manipulating either time (as evidenced in the STTNG finale) or life/death (as evidenced in the episode where he tries to recruit Riker - where both Worf and Wesley are killed onscreen). Kevin (the douwd) cannot truly resurrect his wife, only make a facsimile of her.
