Asclepius is one of the Lords of Kobol, the god of healing.
Asclepius is known in the Colonials' polytheistic mythology as having healed with the blood of a Gorgon. He is symbolized by a medallion featuring a Caduceus, which he finds in the possession of one of his disciples, Lilly.
Gaius Baltar angrily denounces Asclepius and other Lords of Kobol as he interrupts a temple ceremony before being restrained and jailed (TRS: "Escape Velocity").
