== Charactah Account ==
Keel is the enigmatic leader of the mysterious SEELE organization.
Keel is an old man with a slick-back gray hair, he has a large nose and wears red & yellow mechanical visor. He wears a green high-collared robe with am orange zipper line and a brown belt wrapped around his mid-section, blue pants and black leather shoes.
Believes that the entire human race is slave to sin and suffering and thus can never properly atone before God unless they were to meld their consciousness and become a God-like entity themselves, reaching God level of perfection. He'd say, then, that the intentions behind his actions are just and good.

== Trivia ==
* Keel was named for both the ship part and the Austrian biologist Konrad Lorenz. Originally, his name was actually going to be "Konrad Lorenz". Lorenz is best known for his work in the field of animals psychology.
* Lorenz's first name, "Keel", is actually spelled incorrectly. It should be "Kiel", as "Keel", in German. The word "Kiel" however is pronounced almost exactly like its English counterpart. However, due to the proliferation of "Keel" in canonical materials, this spelling is used. The German word "Kiel" means "keel" in English and is also the name of the capital city of the German Federal State of Schleswig-Holstein.
* Keel's age is unknown, although he appears to be no more than in his seventies in the Second Impact coverup photograph. He has visibly aged in the subsequent 15 years, but it's uncertain if the reception of extensive cybernetic implants has prevented him from aging as much as he otherwise would have. The Proposal provides Keel's (or Konrad's, rather) age as 67, although there is no way to know if this carried through to the final show.
* Lorenz's visor bears some aesthetic similarity to that worn by Geordi LaForge in Star Trek: The Next Generation.
