Adel is pretty intimidating when she shows up. She could have been the big baddie.

The boy's name Adel \a-del\, also used as girl's name Adel, is of Hebrew and Old German origin, and its meaning is "God is eternal; noble". More familiar as a part of other names.
Adel has 2 variant forms: Adal and Edel.
Baby names that sound like Adel are Adael, Adil, Adiel, Adeel and Udel.
Adel is a very rare male first name and a common surname.
Adel - meaning of Adel name
Adel was preety intimidating, yeah. Then again, Ultimecia can meddle with time and send herself through different times.
Adel vs Ulti: Ulti in her final form.
Boy, did YOU do all your research :DQuote:

Funnily enough I fought her again yesterday & was extremely pi$$ed when I killed a boss I once got stuck on for close to a year with one dose of Level 100 Squall Lionheart!

Would make a great tv series
I wouldn't be opposed to an Advent Children sort of movie or anime based around FFVIIIQuote:

There is an optional cutscene/flashback showing exactly that.Quote:

Had Adel replaced Ultimecia as the primary villain of the game this would have been the best final fantasy.

Definitely the creepiest words ever conveyed in an RPG. They alone justify Adel's role in the story, and the game certainly couldn't have been hurt by more content along the same lines.
It's kind of odd that no-one (in the game) seems to have noticed that the world-wide signal interference, which began with Adel's disappearance, produces static that shows up as unsettling messages.
Still, it was a neat extra titbit about Adel's back-story, which is fleshed out pretty well despite not taking centre-stage for long. They manage to tell us quite a bit about her just in passing, without addressing the topic too directly.
