Aaron Doral, (aka Number Five), is a character from the reimagined Battlestar Galactica
series.

Doral is a humanoid Cylon, (designated model number Five), who first appeared as a civilian public relations specialist aboard Galactica just prior to the Cylon attack on the Colonies. Through conversation with the Cylon agent Number Six, Dr. Gaius Baltar fingers Doral as a Cylon spy and has him thrown in the brig. Doral emphatically denies being a Cylon. However, not willing to take a chance, Doral is abandoned by Commader Adama on the Ragnar Anchorage weapons depot. Baltar is revealed to have been correct in assuming Doral a Cylon, for copies of Doral, along with Number Six, Leoben Conoy, and Sharon "Boomer" Valerii come to his aide.

Doral appears again on Cylon-occupied Caprica curiously monitoring the situation developing between Boomer and Karl "Helo" Agathon. He initially decides that Boomer cannot be trusted, and orders Number Six to deal with her. Once Doral discovers that Boomer is pregnant, he states the child is a miracle, and must be protected at all costs. The discovery also leads to his suggesting a major tactical change, although the details of this new plan, as well as whatever changes were made from the original, have as yet to be clearly defined in the series.

The Doral Cylons seem to act more covert, having an unassuming "average" appearance in order to better blend in with more trivial background matters instead of taking more noticable positions of authority and purpose. However, he seems to have a postion of authority among the Cylons, acting as overseer, and having a hand behind their decision making and tactical planning. The Doral Cylons appear to be more fanatical, militant and cold-hearted than the other humanoid Cylons encountered thus far. They calmly discuss the genocide of mankind, (stating on one occasion "They would have destroyed themselves anyway. They deserve what they got."), and unhesitatingly conducting, (at least on one occasion), a suicide bombing aboard Galactica in the episode "Litmus".
