According to IMDB, Kael is possibly named after film critic Pauline Kael.
Kael was portrayed by wrestler and actor Pat Roach, who portrayed several characters in Indiana Jones, another Lucasfilm production, such as the Giant Sherpa, the muscular German Mechanic, the Gong Striker in Club Obi Wan, the Thuggee Assasin, the huge Thuggee Chief Guard, and the black coated Gestapo Agent. These, except the Gong Striker, were all villains.
