''' | '''Abel''' is a third generation {{TOS|tylium}} miner whom {{alt|Baltar|TOS}} grooms as his assistant following the reclamation of [[Cygnus]] from the {{alt|Cylons|TOS}}. | ||
Abel met Baltar while both studied at the [[University of Picon]], and both strike up a friendship. | |||
Following the reclamation of Cygnus from the Cylons, Abel is tasked with finding new sources of tylium to sell during the [[Thousand-Yahren War]] in order to build up Baltar's tylium operations over the [[Cyrannus]] galaxy. Over the next ten [[yahren]], Abel does so while Baltar amasses his political power to mirror his financial acumen. | |||
A half-yahren after Baltar secures a survey contract from [[Sire]] [[Damaris]], Abel later discovers the planet {{alt|Carillon}}, summoning Baltar to arrive at Carillon in secret. It is this mistake that leads to Abel's death by Baltar's hands, as Abel proves that Carillon has the largest deposits in the known galaxy. Despite Baltar's proselytizing and his revelation of selling tylium to the Cylons, Abel's ethics prevent him from going along with hiding the discovery from the {{alt|Quorum of Twelve}}, and Baltar pushes him over a cliff to his death ({{comics|annual2014}}). | |||
